White House in Turmoil, Planning Major Shake-Up: Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, National Economic Council Director Brian Deese are among those likely to get the boot

The White House is reportedly considering a major shake-up after the midterm elections in November, which are expected to not go well for the Democrats.

The report suggests that Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and National Economic Council Director Brian Deese are among those likely to get the boot in what Axios describes as a “broad reorganization of President Biden’s economic team.”

p>This appears to be related to a broader shake-up planned by White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain, who, it was reported last week, is having former administration officials Jeff Zients and Natalie Quillian compile lists of candidates for Cabinet and senior administrative positions.

Post-midterm shake-ups are hardly new, but when you read between the lines, it becomes clear that this shake-up is a bit different.

According to the story, Treasury spokeswoman Lily Adams says that Yellen has no plans to leave.

“While we are prudently planning for potential transitions post-midterm, neither Secretary Yellen or Brian Deese are part of those plans,” White House senior adviser Anita Dunn said in a statement.

Traditionally, post-midterm and post-term departures are expected, as individuals often serve two to four years before deciding to move on. But those departures are often well-staged. That someone leaked that Yellen might be axed when her department says she’s not going anywhere suggests deeper problems in the White House and that they’re expecting the midterm elections not to go well for them.

Yellen is a fool but if Trump was to fire the fed chief the media would go nuts.

Whoever is in charge needs to find a way to hide Biden.

Are they going to write tell-all books about Joe Biden or is those only valid with a republican in the WH?

Klain should be the first.

Again, whoever “Joe” is, he is not calling the “shots..” that is someone who is being kept well away from the limelight. The #JihadJunta hasn’t completely secured the electoral process yet, this is why world events are precarious because the Cabal cannot lose power when they are so darn close to “resetting” all of us. Things are about to get very hot.

Deese should be detained and hung in public, or at the very least beaten to a pulp by dudes dressed all in black, including masks (notice that I did not say “arrested” because it will never happen) as soon as they kick his arse out of the mis-administration.

Yellen was such a prescient and effective leader.

... the media would go nuts.

We don't really have a media. We have a rabid pack of partisan skunks posing as media.

Good point.

I've said that here maybe four or five times. Somehow the Left unites fully in time for important bills, shuts up about flaws and major failing of others and doesn't do the bestseller tell-all thing.

Our side always does that to ourselves.
