The deputy press secretary for Vice President Kamala Harris is officially resigning from their position at the vice president’s office, which is just another tally on the growing list of high-level departures.
The person in question, Sabrina Singh, has accepted a job with the Defense Department, as reported by the New York Post.
“We will miss her institutional knowledge, strategic counsel and rapid-fire email fingers,” wrote Jamal Simmons, the Communications Director for Harris, as part of a memo obtained by CBS News.
This departure by Singh means that just a single member of the original four lead communications positions in the VP’s office remains on staff since Inauguration Day.
The Post has stated that she “is at least the ninth key official to depart the veep’s office since this past summer — joining director of digital strategies Rajun Kaur, director of advance Karly Satkowiak, deputy director of advance Gabrielle DeFranceschi, communications director Ashley Etienne, chief spokesperson Symone Sanders, director of press operations Peter Velz, deputy director of public engagement Vince Evans, and speechwriting director Kate Childs Graham.”
This departure come in the wake of a series of bad news stories concerning Harris, with many of them stating that staffers claim that her office is entirely dysfunctional and that she is just a “bully” who throws out “soul-destroying criticism.”
The deputy director of public engagement and intergovernmental affairs, Vincent Evans, quit the office back in January in order to take a new job on Capitol Hill, stated a report from CNBC. It was found out that he left her office in order to join the COngressional Black Caucus, which is led by Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-OH), which is pretty obviously a less than lateral transition.
Back in December of 2021, Symone Sanders, the VP’s head spokeswoman, along with Communications Director Ashley Etienne, tendered their resignation from the office.
The nnouncement of Etienne’s departure came in the wake of a horrible poll from USA Today/Suffolk University that displayed the fact that Harris was sporting a concerning 28% appreoval rating, a sold 10 points behind Old Uncle Joe, who sat at a just as sad 38% approval rating. Biden is reportedly not at all happy about these numbers from harris, with one report stating that she not even thought to be the successor to Biden in he White House anymore.
As read in additional report, the two top elected officials in the nation are currently at odds, promting the desperate harris aides to defend their boss by whining about the media for “gossip.”
The various reports concerning a hostile office first appeared on CNN. “Many current and former West Wing aides say that Vice President Kamala Harris is not being adequately prepared or positioned, and instead is being sidelined, causing frustration among staffers,” stated CNN.
“Interviews with nearly three dozen former and current Harris aides, administration officials, Democratic operatives, donors and outside advisers — who spoke extensively to CNN — reveal a complex reality inside the White House. Many in the vice president’s circle fume that she’s not being adequately prepared or positioned, and instead is being sidelined. The vice president herself has told several confidants she feels constrained in what she’s able to do politically. And those around her remain wary of even hinting at future political ambitions, with Biden’s team highly attuned to signs of disloyalty, particularly from the vice president,” claimed CNN.
One anonymous staffer told The Washington Post, “With Kamala, you have to put up with a constant amount of soul-destroying criticism and also her own lack of confidence. So you’re constantly sort of propping up a bully and it’s not really clear why.”
