Another One? Kamala Harris' Deputy Chief-Of-Staff Quits

Over the past two years, staffers working for Vice President Kamala
Harris have described her as a "soul-destroying bully" whose office is
a "dysfunctional" mess.

Now - Harris's deputy chief of staff Michael Fuchs is becoming the
latest in a long list of departures from the VP's staff, according to
Reuters, citing a leaked internal staff memo.

    Fuchs, who served as a foreign policy advisor to former President
Bill Clinton and worked in senior roles at the U.S. State Department
under former President Barack Obama's administration, advised Harris
on domestic and international issues, helped manage staff and often
accompanied her on foreign trips. -Reuters

Fuchs will remain in the office for approximately another month in
order to "ensure a smooth transition," according to the memo.

"Fifteen months later, it's almost difficult to recall the magnitude
of the challenges we faced when we came in, from an unprecedented
pandemic to historically difficult economic circumstances," wrote
Fuchs.

Word of Fuchs' departure follows a March 21 announcement that Harris's
National Security Adviser Nancy McEldowney was stepping down from her
role, while her communications team - which had several high-profile
screwups in their first year - has also seen several high-profile
departures.

    Jamal Simmons, the vice president's communications director, said
Harris "is grateful for Michael's tireless work, leadership and the
many miles he traveled domestically and internationally ... our entire
team will miss Michael as he begins this next chapter." Simmons did
not comment on staff departures. -Reuters

In other news, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki decided to stop
bailing water out of the rowboat as well - an has announced that
she'll be leaving her position in coming weeks despite having no
obvious replacement.

Also, Biden COVID-19 response coordinator Jeff Zients will be leaving
after 14 months on the job, while National Security Council
spokeswoman Emily Horne left on March 25.

"This period before the midterms is a common time for officials to
depart," said one anonymous White House official.

Is it also common when approval ratings are in the toilet?
