Can't find it in print, but Sarah Huckabee sanders confirmed it in a news conference. MSNBC reported it on air this morning. I'm sure there will be links in the next couple hours.

He's in the White House on a visitor's pass. He can't officially become an employee until the sale of his hedge fund closes, which can't happen before August 15th.

I doesn't make much sense that Scaramucci would even care about the money (other than to 'be official'). Whatever the salary is, it's peanuts to Scaramucci.

No one needs to pay anything. Not sure if people realize that this guy is a multi millionaire. Believe it or not many of Trump' s high profile hires are not doing it for money and don't need money. So no books no memoir no paid speeches and certainly no need for free vacations given by the rich looking to gain influence once they leave the administration. It's purely ego driven why they're doing this.

He needs government approval to sell his fund to a foreign entity.

" reportedly"

More "un-named sources.

Even if he did, why not, Hillary did it.

Oh, I forgot, we are not allowed to bring up HER past doings.
Scaramucci said he has fired some employees and expects to fire more.

And requires the approval of the Federal Givernment because the buyer is a foreign entity.

Scaramucci will realize a handsome profit.
