White House chief of staff Ron Klain, the powerful force at the center of Joe Biden’s first two years in office, is expected to step down in the weeks after the president’s State of the Union address, according to multiple people familiar with his plans.

Klain’s exact timeline is still not set, the sources said, and he is expected to stay in the West Wing for a period of time to help with the transition period for his replacement, one of the people said. The State of the Union address is set for February 7.

An official familiar with Klain’s plans said his decision to step down is not related to the investigation underway about classified documents found at Biden’s private office and Delaware residence, with the decision being made before the special counsel was announced.

 

Klain has been mulling his exit since November’s midterm elections, according to a person familiar with the matter, who said people inside the White House have watched closely for clues as to his intentions. Klain is known to email staff at all hours and even check on gas prices in the middle of the night – a work pace that many of his colleagues viewed as unsustainable in the long run.

Klain himself has noted publicly – and in a more detailed manner privately – the grueling and exhausting nature of the position. But his deeply ingrained presence in nearly every aspect of the West Wing, along with his decadeslong relationship with Biden, had led some White House officials to urge him to stay in the role for an extended period of time.

He'll get hired on CNN by next week.

With Biden's condition. I wondered if Klain and others were calling the shots on policies.

Nope they have been using the magic 8-ball Trump left behind in the residence.

This country has been run by a hard Left Cabal since the dementia-ridden turnip was INSTALLED into that chair.

It says not because of the documents, that he's been talking about it since November, but the documents were found in early November.

My guess is he knows that Biden will be unlikely to get much high profile stuff done with a GOP House, and so he's moving on to other more lucrative endeavors. Rats are leaving the sinking ship. He simply identified the ship was sinking back in November.

Trump's been out of office for 2 years. Nothing to say about all the good things the Biden regime is doing for the US? 

[acidhead]

Word is this is his replacement  

Hahaha

Nah. He's going to give the job to Hunter. Hunter's the most intelligent man Joe knows. And he's qualified for just about any job you can think of... apparently.

Plenty, but that is another thread.

Hate and whining, whining and hate.  Biden Derangement Syndrome.  But just like TDS, time heals all wounds.

Dementia Turnip is an interesting way of referring to 45.

You just know we’ll be two year into the Harris presidency and everything will still be Dementia Turnip’s fault.

So, are you satisfied with Anthony Albanese running your country? Or does he take a back seat and Trump is in the forefront?

Ol’ elbow? He’s doing a good job and is certainly less destruction, manipulative, lazy and vindictive as Scotty from Marketing (the previous guy).

Imagine my shock!

Perhaps you should take the dementia test yourself. Your getting positively frothy. You don't even know what hard left means. Ignorant people like you are the reason for your countries turmoil.

It would be stupid funny if was being sarcastic and wasnt actually so deep in the rabbit hole of delusions, fear and loathing, i hope after trump goes to jail or home care and 2024 comes and goes with trump playing putt putt he can heal and move on.

I don't know if this is good or not.   Idiot biden has not promoted good people.
