After only 6 months, he quits. No one wants to work for Trump. Next to get thrown under Shorty's bus is Rudy.

WASHINGTON – Acting Homeland Security Secretary Kevin McAleenan is stepping down after just six months on the job.

President Donald Trump announced McAleenan's departure in a pair of messages posted on Twitter late Friday.

"Kevin McAleenan has done an outstanding job as Acting Secretary of Homeland Security," Trump wrote. "We have worked well together with Border Crossings being way down. Kevin now, after many years in Government, wants to spend more time with his family and go to the private sector."

He added, "Congratulations Kevin, on a job well done! I will be announcing the new Acting Secretary next week. Many wonderful candidates!"

McAleenan was named acting secretary in April, replacing Kirstjen Nielsen, who resigned after a tumultuous relationship with Trump.
