Yet another Biden top official is jumping ship as Biden faces historic unpopularity among the Democratic base. His dip in the poles coincides with questions about his advanced age and cognitive ability. All while he faces a serious battle to remain president for another four years.

This week mainstream media was turned upside down by the shocking departures of Fox News’ Carlson and CNN’s Lemon from their respective networks. The announcements of these departures took up most of the airwaves allowing for the departure of Susan Rice from the Biden administration to slide under the radar.
The unexpected departure of Susan Rice, Biden’s domestic policy adviser and former national security advisor in President Barack Obama’s administration is shocking as she is just one of many to leave in the last few months.
Rice has been closely linked with prominent Democrats since the Clinton Administration. This makes her evacuation from the White House all the more stunning.

Biden revealed in a statement on Monday that Rice would be stepping down from her position within his administration.
“[A]fter more than two years of her steady leadership of the Domestic Policy Council – it’s clear: there is no one more capable, and more determined to get important things done for the American people than Susan Rice,” the statement read.
Biden’s statement continued with a list of Rice’s accomplishments, including the highly polarizing “Affordable Care Act.”

“Thanks to her tireless efforts, we expanded and strengthened the Affordable Care Act, released a comprehensive national mental health strategy, and finally enabled Medicare to negotiate lower prescription drug prices for seniors and cap the cost of insulin at $35,” the statement continued.
The Biden Administration’s statement also lauded Rice for imbuing the federal government with “equity.”
“We have embedded equity into the work of the entire federal government,” the statement concluded.
