Obama signs off on Klain’s official departure, Biden taps controversial new chief-of-staff

From BizPac Review:

President Joe Biden made it official on Friday that White House chief of staff Ron Klain will step down next week, and announced that Jeff Zients, who ran Biden’s Covid-19 response operation, will replace Klain — Zients, a former Bain Capital consultant who served under Barack Obama, being known for declaring in 2021 that unvaccinated Americans were “looking at a winter of severe illness and death.” 

“I’m confident that Jeff will continue Ron’s example of smart, steady leadership, as we continue to work hard every day for the people we were sent here to serve,” Biden said in a written statement. 

A copy of Klain’s resignation letter was circulated online, saying his “journey” has been “the honor of a lifetime” while claiming that he had the opportunity “to work with the most talented, diverse, determined, and collegial White House staff ever.”Tom Fitton, the founder of Judicial Watch, tweeted last week that Zients may have “violated civil rights laws and US Constitution in leading Biden WH operation to censor Americans through Big Tech on Covid issue.” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. called Biden’s new chief of staff an “inept corporate profiteer.”
