‘The Mooch’ is heading to TV

- — Libby Hill

Stephen Colbert tweeted Wednesday night that he has big plans for his Monday show, announcing that former White House communicat­ions director Anthony “the Mooch” Scaramucci will be his guest.

It’s been less than three weeks since Scaramucci was hired into the position at the Trump White House and just 10 days since he was unceremoni­ously fired from that same position.

But Colbert won’t be the first to get a crack at Scaramucci.

Early Thursday morning, George Stephanopo­ulos, former Clinton White House communicat­ions director and current co-host of ABC’s Sunday morning political analysis show “This Week,” tweeted that he will have the first official post-firing interview with Scaramucci this weekend.
