The exodus from Vice President Kamala Harris’s office saw its biggest departure yet, with her chief of staff leaving after 15 turbulent months.
Tina Flournoy has played a key role in bridging ties between Harris and President Joe Biden’s West Wing, where she was viewed as “indispensable” and “steadying,” according to a forthcoming book obtained by the Washington Examiner.
After hearing that Democratic Rep. Kathy Manning was left out of parts of a visit by Harris to Manning’s North Carolina district, Biden’s chief of staff Ron Klain, a Harris ally, was vexed. The book, set to publish on May 3, reveals Harris’s challenge in carving out a meaningful agenda as vice president, citing tensions with Biden’s top aides and with the president himself over her “political role and place in [his] insular operation.”
The trust deficit stems in part from the campaign when Harris took aim at Biden on the debate stage over his record on forced busing to integrate public schools and the handling of her campaign, which devolved into a bitter fight that played out in the media.
