For some reason, nobody seems to want to work with Kamala Harris. Nancy McEldowney is the latest rat to leave the sinking ship of state. Officially, she’s “stepping down from her role” and her assistant will take over. Phil Gordon is already answering the phone at her desk.
Another Harris staffer gone
The palace officially announced on Monday, March 21, that Nancy McEldowney cleaned out her desk and headed for the parking lot. The move is noteworthy because Harris is being pushed in front of the Biden regime response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Joe has us on the brink of nuclear catastrophe and every time he opens his mouth, they move the hands on the doomsday clock a little closer to midnight.
Ms. McEldowney was part of the team on a recent little jaunt Harris took to Poland and Romania. When she heard what Kamala and crew told NATO friends begging us to help Ukraine, she started drafting her resignation letter. Nobody is leaking a whole lot more than that. Her job used to be national security adviser. Kamala must not like her advice.
Even CNN admits that her defection “comes after a series of high-profile staff exits in the [alleged] vice president’s office, including several from her communications team.” The spin doctors threw up their hands in disgust, saying there’s a limit to the miracles they can produce.
There’s no hard feelings, the palace claims. They issued a press release stating “McEldowney’s work in the administration” has “made a significant positive difference.”
Her work as a “close and trusted advisor” to Kamala Harris has made her a “valued member” of the national security team. She spent a long time hanging out as ambassador to Bulgaria under Bush the younger.
A devoted Progressive
Her replacement, Phil Gordon, cemented his reputation as a loyal progressive with jobs in the Obama and Clinton administrations. He worked together closely with McEldowney and Harris, serving as deputy national security adviser since Biden was installed.
Before that, he was assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian Affairs and director for European affairs at the National Security Council.
Back in December, the Washington Post reported on an “exodus” of staff from the Harris inner circle. Rumors had been swirling for months of a “dysfunctional and frustrated office, burned out in just a few months.”
They don’t like being subjected to regular personal abuse. Kamala shrugged it off. “We are not making rainbows and bunnies all day,” she whined at the press. “What I hear is that people have hard jobs and I’m like ‘welcome to the club.‘”
Four of the overworked and unappreciated staffers headed for the hills at the end of the year. Even liberal outlets were asking “why Harris churns through top-level Democratic staff?” The Washington Post notes it is “an issue that has colored her nearly 18 years in public service.” The answer wasn’t hard to figure out.
“Critics scattered over two decades point to an inconsistent and at times degrading principal who burns through seasoned staff members who have succeeded in other demanding, high-profile positions. People used to putting aside missteps, sacrificing sleep and enduring the occasional tirade from an irate boss say doing so under Harris can be particularly difficult.” If things keep going this way, Vlad’s likely to go nuclear.
