White House Bans Use of Personal Devices From West Wing (cbsnews.com)
In the wake of damaging reports of a chaotic Trump administration detailed in a new book from Michael Wolff, the White House is instituting new policies on the use of personal cellphones in the West Wing. CBS News reports: White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders released the following statement on the policy change: "The security and integrity of the technology systems at the White House is a top priority for the Trump administration and therefore starting next week the use of all personal devices for both guests and staff will no longer be allowed in the West Wing. Staff will be able to conduct business on their government-issued devices and continue working hard on behalf of the American people."
Wolff reportedly gained access to the White House where he conducted numerous interviews with staffers on the inner-workings of the Trump campaign and West Wing operations. Sanders told reporters Wednesday that there were about "a dozen" interactions between Wolff and White House officials, which she said took place at Bannon's request. The White House swiftly slammed the book and those who cooperated with Wolff.

... of fan fiction. Seriously, how anyone can quote anything from that book with all the very obvious factual errors in it is beyond me. If he can't even get the Trump/Boehner when there are numerous tweets, public pictures, how can you take anything seriously in that thing ?
"Not to mention all the idiots who use words like boxen."

A better question is why Twitter hasn't shut down Trump's account over TOC violations yet.
(yeah, the obvious answer is that Twitter is hemorrhaging money and will cling at anything to say relevant in the eyes of their VCs).
