Kelly Sadler, aide who mocked John McCain, is out at the White House

White House communications aide Kelly Sadler is no longer part of the Trump administration, a month after she made disparaging remarks about Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and his health, three people with knowledge of the matter told CNN on Tuesday.

In May, Sadler remarked during a meeting that it didn't matter if McCain was opposed to CIA director nominee Gina Haspel because he's "dying anyway." The White House would not condemn her comments, but Sadler reportedly apologized to McCain's daughter, Meghan. It's unclear where Sadler is now working.
