No thank you to the president from Reince Preibus, his longembattled chief of staff, anthony. There have been many turbulent weeks at the white house, this by far the most turbulent of them all, capped off by the ousting of a chief of staff, and a slowmoving, highly aggressive, and very public. Power play, not only between Reince Preibus, but the new minted communications director, anthony scaramucci, brought in by President Trump, in direct defiance of the wishes of his wheefs, Reince Preibus, and others associated with the priebus wing of this very own white house. Its worgs pointing out, in the last month or two, anthony, the centrality of Reince Preibus as chief of staff had been gradually diminishing, less and less important in the daytoday scheduling of the president , and daytoday agendasetting for the future of his administration. With this earlymorning cull can minnation of the defeat of the effort in the senate to repeal and replace bawrk, Reince Preibus, who was brought in as chief of staff, in part because of his relationships on capitol hill with republicans, not only exits in the ignominy of the president , but also in the faceave conspicuous legislative defeat, not only for him, Reince Preibus, but for the entire trump administration. It has been one heck of a week here at the white house, and ending now with the ousting of the chief of staff. Mason well, its not quite over yet, major. Theres another day in this week. Well see what happens. Let me bring in John Dickerson, our chief washington correspondent and anchor of face the nation. John, as major alluded to, Reince Preibus influence seemed to be on the wane for some kind. Tended yesterday with a public, nasty rebuke from mr. Scaramucci. Where does that leave the white house at this point . You know, just to go back to a little bit of past history, during the campaign, Reince Preibus, and the president , thencandidate trump had this very tense and strange relationship where basically they were allied, but Reince Preibus knew the president would throw him overboard the second that it became convenient for him to do so. And that was the tension that was carried then into their relationship into the white house. It has now happened. So what it is is its a ratification in part of all the reports of the chaos in the white house. What was striking about mr. Scaramuccis conversation with the new yorkers ryan liza was not just the vulgar language but it gave a window into the administration of what he was saying was basically out of control and pull of people only interested in themselves and protecting their turf, and it was an extraordinarily negative Performance Review of the white house. By firing Reince Preibus, it ratifies that view that the last six months have been chaos, out of control. And now hoz does it get fixed . And thats big question going forward. Mason all right, John Dickerson in washington. Thanks. To repeat, Reince Preibus is out as President Trumps chief of staff. General john kelly is in.

You have probably heard of the Kenneth Square is mushroom capitol of the world, they grow more mushrooms per square mile then anywhere else in the world right here in Kenneth Square and how they grow them is a protected process, of sorts. Our Vittoria Woodill got herself a behind the scenes look at one local farm, take a look. Reporter if you didnt know, Kenneth Square is the mushroom capitol of the world, but how . How did this town, 37 miles from philadelphia become the place for mushrooms to pop, perfectly. Well, lets ask the first commercial growers of the mushroom in the u. S. Phillips mushroom farms. Gill phillips gray says it started in 1885. There were a lot of rows and carnation growers and a lot of wasted space underneath the bed. A man by the name of david blame went over to france and he brought back Mushroom Spore s and knowledge to grow mushrooms. Reporter mushrooms didnt just grow but they flourish, mix of the soil and location was perfect. Pop goes the mushroom industry men 1926 jills grandfather, William Phillips stamped their family name in mushroom history with their farm in Kenneth Square. We have variety varieties that people do not know of like the pompon mushroom, mi take, royal trumpet we only grew white back then and new we grow seven different varieties. Reporter tina he willer is the expert. They study the funky. Reporter she is giving us a rare look behind the buttons , trumpets and other tasty mushrooms. I expect it to be like totally delivered. Mushrooms they need to get their food externally. They like to eat is compost. No mushrooms that we know grow, you have to try one mushroom, because they lose, like 90 percent of their flavor compound in 24 hours so eating it right off the betties a whole different experience. That is so good. Reporter excellent tour, tori thanks very much. The farm does not provide any public tours but over at the wood land, they actually have built a mushroom exhibit, filled with fresh mushrooms and momentoes, if you will, they occasionally have cooking demonstration there is and they told vittoria to get the most out of your mushrooms after you buy them, cook them, cooking releases more of their nutrientness case you didnt know. Speaking of cooking Eyewitness News paid a visit to one restaurant that would be called port bell owes, capitalizing on the wonderful mushrooms in this area vittoria in her way through that, it is all about american cuisine flying fresh out of the kitchen and menu is constantly changing. They collect from the Chester County growers and wonderful produce around here, but as the owners about the mushrooms and they have one gripe. I have been doing this for decade but never been able to call somebody and have them cuss mushrooms and have them in my front door within an hour. Everybody works together and very friendly and even won that you may not be best friends with are always willing to jump in and help out. Chef brett who will berth has been cooking all of his life and while a lot of his inspiration comes from his rootness avalon new jersey, his love for Mediterranean Food is what really sets the tone for his menu and we got to see that last night on taste with tori which it looked delicious. Were you watching that piece with us last night at 11 00 and got to see those incredible dishes and, you know, wonderful when we go behind the scenes of what it takes to make this mushroom capitol of the world as well. Im not saying you have to bring something back, when you come back later on but im just saying, just saying. Okay. Thanks, jessica. Shout out to the big part of the mushroom world in Kenneth Square, pennsylvania.

I know it is raining but it sound like there is still wonderful things there. It is raining, farmers are used to rain i have boots in the truck so im ready to go. This is very social atmosphere i wanted to start out with a quick story. I was just talking to a man here who was telling me how he work in the auto service industry. I was feeling like it was a thankless job when it came to customers. He did a complete Career Change and i met him here as a fruit farmer, and, really truly felt gratitude from the community. I just love stories like that, a complete 360, and here outside, with the community and getting to know everybody. Speaking to know people we have ros fenton managerring this Farmers Market for 17 years, first tell me why this is so special for Kenneth Square. It is great that the market is right here in town, gathering point for the community and also brings business to town, and different, shots here in the town. Shots because it is not just fruits, vegetables, there is bread, different artisan goods. We were talking before about what kind of community this is it is a farm to table experience. Tell me about relationship with some of the restaurants. We have restaurantness town that use produce from the farmers locally, and as well as port bell owes, and just to name a few and they come to market and they work directly with the farmers.
