Anthony Scaramucci enjoyed a last supper at Donald Trump's namesake hotel in Washington DC on Monday after getting axed as the President's chief spokesman just 10 days after he was hired.

He dined at the Trump Hotel's BLT Prime with former Trump campaign spokeswoman Katrina Pierson and a couple of administration employees.

Scaramucci spent most of the dinner on his cell phone and barely touched his food - after just over a week as the White House communications director during which his most notable moment was a foul-mouthed rant about Reince Priebus and Steve Bannon.

The former White House supremo was let go on the first day of Gen. John Kelly's tenure as White House Chief of Staff and after revelations about his wife filing for divorce while pregnant emerged at the weekend.

And after wrapping up the business day on Monday, President Trump tweeted 'A great day at the White House'.

At the Trump Hotel, Scaramucci chose a discreet table at the corner of the BLT restaurant under a tree, one of four planted in huge boxes in the restaurant.

He declined to be interviewed and left quietly through a side exit. It was the first time he had been seen in public all day since he was sacked.

The DailyMail's exclusive photo reveals that Trump surrogate Pierson is among those Trump loyalists closely connected to the ousted Mooch.

The president is likely to question, along with his inner circle, just why she was providing counsel to the discredited former White House supremo immediately after his axing.

Observers thought it extraordinary that after the day of bloodshed that saw him axed from the White House, he should be seen at the Trump Hotel.

But one diner said: 'Maybe Trump was putting him up and he didn't have time to check out yet. I guess as he's not from D.C he hasn't go his own base.

'He was in and out so quickly. It's incredible.'

Scaramucci's appearance at the restaurant came after President Trump proclaimed that Monday had been another 'great day at the White House' after Scaramucci was earlier escorted from the West Wing.

Trump made the defiant declaration in a tweet after 6pm Monday – on yet another turbulent day, on which he claimed at the outset there was 'no chaos' in the White House.

Prior to being seen with Scaramucci at the restaurant, Pierson - who was Trump’s spokeswoman in the final year of the campaign - tweeted on Monday afternoon that the Mooch had managed to stop news of his firing from being leaked.

'FWIW: @Scaramucci was fired at 8am but the press found out when the WH shop released it in the afternoon. Apparently, he stopped the leaks,' she tweeted.

It followed news from the White House hours earlier that Trump had concluded that the man brought in to salvage his message operation had made 'inappropriate' comments in a call where he ridiculed senior White House officials, and that the new White House chief of staff saw fit to dispatch Scaramucci during his own first hours on the job.

'A great day at the White House!' Trump tweeted, hours after the stunning news that Scaramucci was out. It was just the latest dramatic staff shake-up to rock the White House, one that saw the departure of chief of staff Reince Priebus, the victim of Scaramucci's tirade, on Friday.

The Mooch's departure came as as Gen. John Kelly brandished new authority over all staff working inside the White House on his first day on the job as the new chief of staff.

'Anthony Scaramucci will be leaving his role as White House Communications Director,' the White House said in a brief statement. 'Mr. Scaramucci felt it was best to give Chief of Staff John Kelly a clean slate and the ability to build his own team. We wish him all the best.'

COULD BE WORSE: President Trump tweeted about the tumultuous day Monday evening

'The president certainly felt that Anthony's comments were inappropriate for someone in that position, and he din't want to burden Gen. Kelly also with that line of succession,' White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Monday

Trump loyalist and CNN contributor Katrina Pierson tweeted that Scaramucci had managed to stop news of his firing from being leaked

The official statement came just minutes after the New York Times first reported the news on Monday, and came hours after the president tweeted there was 'No WH chaos!'

Scaramucci started the job just a week ago, and immediately shook the White House with controversial statements, including vulgar attacks on senior White House staffers, along with a vow to hunt down leakers.

Sanders declined to answer questions about whether Trump asked Scaramucci to leave or whether Kelly pushed him out to get a clear line of authority.

'He does not have a role at this time in the Trump administration,' Sanders said. 'I don’t have much else to add,' she said when pressed for details.

She indicated that Kelly had full authority within the White House. She said all White House officials – including Ivanka Trump and son-in-law Jared Kushner – would report through Kelly.

'That includes everybody at the White House,' she said.

'The president certainly felt that Anthony's comments were inappropriate for someone in that position, and he din't want to burden Gen. Kelly also with that line of succession,' Huckabee Sanders said.

Asked if Trump regretted hiring the short-time Scaramucci, Huckabee Sanders said: 'I'm not going to get into anything beyond what I've already said on that front.'

Getting rid of Scaramucci was among Kelly's first orders of business.

Almost immediately after getting sworn in, Kelly told Scaramucci he needed to leave.

SHORT-TIMER: Anthony Scaramucci attends the daily White House press briefing in the Brady Press Briefing Room at the White House July 21, 2017 in Washington, DC. White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer quit after it was announced that Trump hired Scaramucci, a Wall Street financier and longtime supporter, to the position of White House communications director

Trump, during a ceremony in the East Room of the White House in Washington, DC. He resigned his post after learning Scaramucci got hired

That happened at 9:30 am, Axios reported, citing a source who said Kelly needed to assert his influence but was 'gracious in the way he did it.' The White House was able to keep a lid on the news for a few hours before it appeared in the New York Times.

The report characterized Jared Kushner and Ivnka Trump as being 'fully supportive' of Kelly, to whom they would now report. Having touted Scaracmucci, they were pleased that he accomplished his purpose of forcing out Priebus, according to the report.

Scaramucci's sudden exit was a demonstration of the four-decade Marine's effort to seize control of the operation of the White House. 'Gen. Kelly has the full authority to operate within the White House and all staff will report to him,' she said.

She said Scaramucci and Kelly came to the decision by 'mutual agreement,' although the official statement issued by the White House said it was Scaramucci's idea.

Asked about any changes in Spicer's role – he is expected to leave at the end of August – Sanders said: 'I'm not aware of any changes that have been made on that front.'

She made it apparent that Trump was behind the decision. 'We all serve at the pleasure of the president but I think that this was a mutually agreed conversation that took place between several people.'

Scaramucci unleashed a profanity-laced tirade against resigned chief of staff Reince Priebus and Steve Bannon last week.

Priebus resigned Friday. Former White House press secretary Sean Spicer, a Priebus ally, quit the day Scaramucci's appointment was announced. A White House official predicted to DailyMail.com last week that Scaramucci wouldn't last long.

Scaramucci at first seemed unperturbed by Lizza's report. He defended his 'colorful language' but vowed to 'refrain in this arena'

Scaramucci turned on journalist Ryan Lizza, saying late on Thursday that he 'made a mistake in trusting a reporter'

Neither Priebus nor Bannon publicly pushed back at Scaramucci for the comments. Trump reportedly thought less of Priebus for failing to defend himself. In a CNN interview after his departure, Priebus declined to after Scaramucci and continued to laud Trump's accomplishments.

A White House official said Monday that no one on Trump's senior staff, including Bannon, Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, Spicer, and press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, objected to Scaramucci's firing.

'General Kelly's arrival turned out to be a neat solution to a real problem of Anthony's own making,' the official said, requesting anonymity to speak freely.

'I don't think anyone was shocked. Mostly relieved,' said the official.

The White House statement on Scaramucci's sudden exit echoed the same language Priebus used to announce his departure – deploying the same phrase, 'clean slate.'

NO CHAOS HERE: Despite a staff shakeup, an Obamacare repeal debacle, internal staff feuds and an ongoing tiff with his attorney general, Trump insisted Monday that his White House isn't a hotbed of chaos

Scaramucci was seen in an animated conversation with counselor to the president Kellyanne Conway early Monday afternoon.

He was escorted off White House grounds, a source familiar with the scene told CBS News. He is the second White House communications director, following Mike Dubke's resignation. Spicer also filled in doing the position.

Scaramucci never denied the profane comments, although he wrote on Twitter that he would refrain from such comments in his new role, and complained he shouldn't have trusted a reporter.

Monday was the first day for new chief of staff Gen. John Kelly, who is seeking to wrestle control of a chaotic and leak-prone White House.

Fox News reported Monday afternoon that Kelly was behind the firing. Trump hailed Kelly at a cabinet meeting Monday, lauding his accomplishments at the Homeland Security Department, which he headed before his new assignment.

Scaramucci himself began the job with seeming carte-blanche from the president on a mission to root out leakers.

On his first and only trip to the White House podium, he announced that then-deputy spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders would be elevated to press secretary.

MEET THE NEW BOSS: President Donald Trump talks with new White House Chief of Staff John Kelly after he was privately sworn in during a ceremony in the Oval Office with President Donald Trump, Monday, July 31, 2017, in Washington. Kelly was reportedly behind Scaramucci's departure

He said he reported directly to the president – and made repeated references to conversations he had with Trump during brief tenure.

Scaramucci immediately vowed to fire the whole communications staff if needed in order to find the source of damaging leaks.

Instead, it was Scaramucci on the outs after just 10 days on the job.

Scaramucci launched an extraordinary attack on his White House colleagues Reince Priebus, calling him a 'f****** paranoid schizophrenic', and accused Steve Bannon of 'sucking his own c***'.

Following his remarks, Priebus made no public effort to push back. By Thursday, Priebus was telling the president that he was resigning from his post.

President Donald Trump praised his new White House chief of staff John Kelly on Monday, saying at the beginning of a cabinet meeting that the retired general would be a 'superb' addition to the West Wing

Earlier in the day, Scaramucci called into CNN Thursday morning to talk about his bad blood with Priebus

Scaramucci ended the phone call by telling Lizza: 'Yeah, let me go, though, because I've gotta start tweeting some s*** to make this guy crazy.' He then posted this on Twitter, tagging Priebus

Lizza, having just spoken to Scaramucci on the phone, confirmed that he was blaming Priebus for the leak in this tweet

In a phone call with New Yorker reporter Ryan Lizza late on Wednesday night, a 'worked up' Scaramucci took aim at the White House Chief of Staff, accusing him of leaking information to the press about him, and Chief Strategist.

Following the publication of the article, Scaramucci turned on the journalist.

'I made a mistake in trusting a reporter. It won't happen again,' he tweeted.

During the call with Lizza, the Mooch, as he has become known, accused Priebus of leaking word of a dinner he had Wednesday night with President Trump and Fox news host Sean Hannity, along with former Fox News president Bill Shine and first lady Melania Trump.

Scaramucci suggested that his relationship with Chief of Staff Reince Priebus (pictured) was brotherly, then mentioned the Biblical brothers Cain and Abel. Cain murdered Abel. Priebus' last day was Friday

The profane interview also included attacks after senior White House strategist Stephen Bannon

'Oh, Bill Shine is coming in. Let me leak the f***ing thing and see if I can c**k-block these people the way I c**k-blocked Scaramucci for six months,' he said, in reference to the months he was kept out of the White House, reportedly by Priebus, after having sold his company.

He repeatedly pressured reporter Ryan Lizza to reveal the source of his tweet about the dinner, threatening to fire his own entire communications staff if he wouldn't reveal who did it.

July 31, 2017 Deidre Scaramucci is spotted heading to a doctors office with her son in Long Island NY.

After the visit she stopped by a Starbucks for coffee and a cookie for her son.

'Who leaked that to you?' Scaramucci asked him. 'What I'm going to do is, I will eliminate everyone in the comms team and we'll start over.'

Scaramucci didn't take a salary for his post. To join the government, he sold his company, SkyBridge Capital, although that deal was under review from government trade authorities because of a Chinese buyer.

Scaramucci accused Priebus of being behind the leak of a personal financial disclosure showing he could be worth up to $85 million, although the document behind the report turned out to be publicly available.

Scaramucci threatened almost immediately to be a source of constant distraction during his short tenure at the White House.

His estranged wife Deidre delivered a baby boy last Monday, during his fourth day on the job. Scaramucci skipped the birth in favor of riding Air Force One to accompany the president for a speech at the national Boy Scout Jamboree.

The baby was born with health problems and was whisked to neonatal intensive care.

The short-lived communications director visited mother and child on Friday – after attending another Trump speech on Long Island.

He was spotted boarding Air Force One without a wedding ring on.

He was widely lambasted for greeting the news of his expanded family by sending his wife a text message that read: 'Congratulations, I'll pray for our child.'

News broke about the same time that Diedre had filed for divorce early in July while she was eight months pregnant.

In yet another slight, Scaramucci was incorrectly listed as dead in the Harvard Law School alumni directory, the Washington Post reported.

Scaramucci does not have a role in the administration, Huckabee Sanders said. Before he was named communications director, he had a position at the Export-Import Bank. He took that position after a post a high-level liaison to business groups didn't pan out.
