Reinhold Richard "Reince" Priebus (/ˌraɪns ˈpriːbəs/ RYNS PREE-bəs;[1] born March 18, 1972) is an American attorney and politician. He was the 27th White House Chief of Staff from January 20, 2017 through July 31, 2017. He has been the chairman of the Republican National Committee (RNC) from January 20, 2011 to January 20, 2017.
On November 13, 2016, President-elect of the United States Donald Trump announced that Priebus would serve as his White House Chief of Staff.[2] Since the position does not need a full senate confirmation vote, Priebus became Chief of Staff on January 20, 2017.
On July 28, 2017, Trump fired Priebus with John F. Kelly as White House Chief of Staff, making him the shortest serving Chief of Staff in White House history.[3]
