According to reports coming from inside the White House, John Kelly is working to limit Omarosa’s access to the president in an attempt to bring order to the chaos that has engulfed this administration.
Omarosa, a former contestant on The Apprentice, is the communications director for the White House Office of Public Liaison. For the most part she has been staying out of the spotlight with the exception of her appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists convention.
The problem, according to sources, is that the stories she would present to Trump would be negative ones that would distract him for the rest of the day.
These same sources say that it was Omarosa who showed Trump the online articles about Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski that enraged him for weeks.

They also said, “When Gen. Kelly is talking about clamping down on access to the Oval, she’s patient zero.”
Kelly is looking to “put a dent” in Omarosa’s influence and has been limiting her access to the president.
One White House source said that Kelly is “thrilled that he has been able to stop staffers including Omarosa from bolting into the Oval Office and triggering the president with White House [palace] intrigue stories.”
That being said, Trump still calls her from time to time for advice.
