The most dangerous place in Washington may be between the vice president’s office and the exits. Veep Kamala Harris’ chief of staff, Tina Flournoy, is the latest — and likely biggest — departure for the Democrat whose tenure has been a disaster.
Flournoy served as a bridge between Harris and President Joe Biden’s inner circle in the West Wing. “Biden’s team regarded Harris’ chief of staff as an indispensable steadying influence,” Jonathan Martin and Alex Burns write in their upcoming book “This Will Not Pass: Trump, Biden, and the Battle for America’s Future” — which also reveals how hesitant Biden was to make the then-senator his running mate.
There’s certainly been a steady rush to jump ship. Harris’ deputy chief of staff, Michael Fuchs, announced he was stepping down earlier this month. Harris’ national security adviser, Nancy McEldowney, left the month before that.
Harris’ communications team has been particularly beset by turnover. Deputy press secretary Sabrina Singh skedaddled for the Pentagon in March; top spokeswoman Symone Sanders departed for the greener pastures of MSNBC at the end of last year; Communications Director Ashley Etienne opted to pursue “other opportunities” in November.
In all, about a dozen top Harris aides have fled the vice president’s office since last June. A series of reports has described Harris as a “bully” and the “common denominator” in this mass exodus, with a management style deemed “soul-destroying.”
But the president will turn 80 this year. Despite his reported plans to run for re-election in 2024, polls show many Americans, including roughly a third of Democrats, doubt he will.
