Scoop: The most dangerous Trump expose (Stephanie Grisham has a book coming out)

Stephanie Grisham has quietly written a top-secret memoir of her four years in Donald Trump's White House, and a publishing source says she'll reveal "surprising new scandals."

What to watch: The book — "I'll Take Your Questions Now: What I Saw in The Trump White House" — will be published Oct. 5 by Harper Collins.

A former West Wing colleague of Grisham's tells Axios: "When I heard this, all I could think about was Stephanie surrounded by a lake of gasoline, striking a match with a grin on her face."

A source close to the publication told Axios: "Grisham knows where all the bodies are buried because she buried a lot of them herself."

The source says Grisham "has receipts ... she was a press person and it was her job to make sure she knew what was happening."

Why it matters: Grisham is the only person to have served as a top aide to both President Trump (White House press secretary and communications direct0r) and first lady Melania Trump (chief of staff).

She knows the family well and will shed new light on their dynamics with her first-person account, the sources said.

Between the lines: Melania Trump guarded her privacy intensely and trusted almost nobody during her time as first lady. Grisham, as her chief of staff, was one of the very few allowed into her inner sanctum.

They take the Government paycheck and all of the perks that come from being close to the oval and then say NOTHING when it counts to help save the Republic from a man and family they know to be abject CRIMINALS.

Then... they cut a lucrative book deal and tell-all. All about the Benjamins. DISGUSTING.

Trump is probably telling her what to write. There will be a few mild criticisms, but, mostly, a too generous pedestal-lift of a fairy tale.

want publicity and bookings. I'll believe something's up if Faux or Newsmax doesn't interview her.
