Kamala’s Communications Director Resigns As Criticism of Harris Intensifies

The communications director for Vice President Kamala Harris resigned on Thursday. Ashley Etienne’s resignation comes after growing criticism of Harris, as well as speculations that the Biden and Harris camps are at odds.

Etienne was a longtime top adviser to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). She served as communications director twice for Pelosi, and also worked in the Obama White House. Harris and Biden’s poll numbers have plummeted, and Harris has been criticized greatly for her lack of involvement, particularly as it relates to border security.

Biden placed Harris in charge of assessing where migrants come from, and she has given little to no reprieve except for by saying more trees should be planted in the home countries of the migrants.

Ashley’s resignation will take effect next month, and a White House official told Fox News “Ashley is a valued member of the Vice President’s team, who has worked tirelessly to advance the goals of this administration…She is leaving the office in December to pursue other opportunities.”

Fox News reports:

The White House has struggled in recent days in the wake of a recent scathing CNN report that outlined frustration and dysfunction in Harris’ office. ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos asked the vice president if she feels “misused or underused” by the Biden administration. She laughed in response.

“No, I don’t,” the vice president said.

The CNN piece touched a nerve in the White House, with press secretary Jen Psaki tweeting out a defense of the vice president that appeared to be in direct response to the article. Harris’ approval rating was a dismal 28% in one recent survey, a historically bad number for a vice president.

RFK Jr. announces lifelong Democrat, advocate of left-leaning causes, CA native as running mate

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. announced Tuesday that attorney and tech entrepreneur Nicole Shanahan will be his vice presidential running mate in the upcoming election. The Independent candidate announced his choice for the 38-year-old Oakland, California native by praising her insight into “how Big Tech uses AI to manipulate the public,” her athletic ability, and willingness to be a “partner” in a number of policy areas, including on securing the border.

Fox News writes that Shanahan is a philanthropist with a long history of donating to Democrat and left-leaning causes, including supporting President Biden in his 2020 election bid before switching to Kennedy when he launched his own run for the Democrat nomination last year.

She is the founder and president of Bia-Echo Foundation, a private firm that describes its mission as focused on “new frontiers in reproductive longevity & equality, criminal justice reform and a healthy & livable planet.”

Fox News reports Shanahan initially dropped her support for Kennedy after he decided to run as an independent, but later got behind him again by giving $4 million to the super PAC that boosted his candidacy with a John F. Kennedy-themed campaign ad that ran during the Super Bowl in February.

Shanahan also previously donated to Democrat presidential candidates Marianne Williamson and Pete Buttigieg during the 2020 presidential race, and threw more than $150,000 behind progressive Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon’s 2020 election bid.

Shanahan, a life-long Democrat, told the crowd that she was leaving the party.

“The Democratic Party is supposed to be the party of compassion. It is supposed to be the party of free speech, and most importantly, the party of the middle class and the American dream,” Shanahan said.

“While I know many Democrats still abide by those values…I do believe they’ve lost their way in their leadership,” she continued.

And she urged “disillusioned” Democrats and Republicans to support Kennedy’s independent White House bid.
