White House Announces Comms Director Is Departing Just Hours After News Breaks That Another Crucial Official Is Quitting

Changes are coming to the White House communications staff as the longtime comms director is set to jump ship.

The White House announced that Kate Bedingfield, who has headed President Joe Biden’s communications team for several years, is stepping down from her post.

In a statement released on Friday, the White House announced that Bedingfield would be leaving the job at the end of the month. She will be replaced by Ben LaBolt.

“Bedingfield, who served as then-Vice President Joe Biden’s communications director in 2015-2016 and then as Deputy Campaign Manager for his successful 2020 presidential race, has played an integral role in the successes of the first two years of the Biden-Harris Administration, from the American Rescue Plan through the Inflation Reduction Act,” the statement said.

Bedingfield is not the only high-profile official leaving the Biden administration.

Ron Klain, Biden’s chief of staff, is also heading out the door, with replacement Jeff Zients poised to put together his own team.

2024 is approaching, and the crew doesn't want to find itself chained to a sinking ship.

Gavin Newsom, Michelle Obama and Kamala Harris would each have the right to select their own staff at the White House.

Lyndon B. Johnson kept some pro-war cabinet and advisors (Rusk, McNarma, et al.) after JFK was murdered. Not a law.
