Former White House chief of staff John Kelly is now a member of the board of directors for a holding company whose subsidiary operates some of the largest shelters for unaccompanied migrant children in the country, CBS News reported Friday.
Kelly has joined the board of Caliburn International, the parent company of Comprehensive Health Services, which operates the Homestead shelter in Florida and three other shelters for unaccompanied migrant children in Texas.
Homestead is the largest shelter for migrant children in the country.
"With four decades of military and humanitarian leadership, in-depth understanding of international affairs and knowledge of current economic drivers around the world, General Kelly is a strong strategic addition to our team," James Van Dusen, Caliburn's CEO, said in a statement reported by CBS.

First, KELLY is and always was a horrendous p.o.s., who implemented horrendous policies on his own and later with SHITLER's bidding. This despite swallowing the public humiliations of his SHITLER. So now, his profiteering off of the horrendous policies is his cashing in, the humiliations being the front end investment. P.O.S., scum, what else.

no matter how corrupt or incompetent someone in the trump administration is, and how embarrassing their departure was, there's always some type of administrative position waiting for them after their exit.
It's their desired career path.
