Karine Jean-Pierre announces two more White House press office departures
Fox News ^ | 2/23/23 | Sarah Rumpf

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre announced the resignations of two "valued members" of the communications office on Wednesday.

After discussing the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio and Biden's trip to Ukraine, the Press Secretary shifted gears to announce the "bittersweet" news that Jean-Pierre's Press Assistant Megha Bhattacharya and her Chief of Staff Robbie Dornbush were leaving the White House's press team.

"We have another bittersweet day for us, for the White House press team, as this is the last press briefing for Megha and Robbie - to my right here - who are valued members of our team," Jean-Pierre started.

Bhattacharya was a White House staff member since February 2022 – making her tenure just over one year, while Dornbush was with the press team for just nine months.

"Megha has yelled ‘Thank you, press’ in every room of the White House and on three different continents." Jean-Pierre reminisced. "She’s done it all with grace, a great sense of humor, and grade A outfits."

The Press Secretary shared that Bhattacharya is headed to the State Department, but she did not share her former Chief of Staff's next steps.

"I knew Robbie before this administration began." Jean-Pierre begin. "But we will truly miss you, Robbie. Thank you for everything that you’ve done."

The White House did not respond to Fox News' Digitals request for comment.

From the start, the Biden administration has had periods of high staff turnover.

I’m going to laugh the day she announces her own departure.

“The clown car gets lighter.”

Not really, perhaps for a day. I spent a bit of time working with “DC types”, specifically in the DoD.

“DC Types” never stop or stay at one place more than 2-3 years before they change gigs. They amass long resumes of short stints. Most never achieve or deliver anything of value. They only stay at one job until the “I’m new here” excuse no longer works, then move on.

These two must be a inept as their “boss”. At least they are intelligent enough to leave a sinking shit.

...and a compliant press dutifully reports on the resignation of two of its own sheepdog herders.

“OK, press, my name is spelled M-e-g-h-a. That’s ‘Megha’. Now move along, people! Thank you... thank you... thank you... thank you...”

When she does, if reporters try to ask why she's leaving, her answer will be: "I prefer not to comment on that and will refer you instead to the White House Communications Office."

I was kind of hoping she was going to add herself to the list.

But, then again, I don’t think I’m ready for the MSM to sing her praises of being such an effective communicator and a refreshing change from W/H spokespersons of the past . . .

I’m sure they’ll be replaced with a hermaphroditic Muslim Eskimo, scoring yet another first place in the identify Olympics.
