The White House chief digital officer is among six White House staffers who have resigned after being unable to pass an FBI background check. Gerritt Lansing, who previously served as the head of the digital department at the RNC, is said to have left on February 9, by his own accord. A source said the issue with the background check had to do with investments.
President Donald Trump's director of scheduling, Caroline Wiles, also failed the FBI screening.
