Trump under pressure from Melania to fire top aide

Two presidential aides said Trump was considering forcing out deputy national security adviser Mira Ricardel, but as of Tuesday afternoon, the adviser remained in her West Wing office. Melania Trump's office took the extraordinary step of issuing a statement saying that Ricardel should be ousted. "It is the position of the Office of the First Lady that she no longer deserves the honor of serving in this White House," Stephanie Grisham, the first lady's spokeswoman, said in a terse statement.
