symone sanders is a big name inside politics. worked for bernie sanders who was not a small voice. didn't dodge questions or do the biden walk away or the kamala harris giggle fest. she steps in during the campaign. she works through the first 11 months of the presidency. then reaches a point where we have seen fake events with hired children. we have seen crisis after crisis get nothing but a giggle. all of this, it isn't just a number. it's the caliber. how many go around does she have for our team? we have talked about this for months. people coming and going. it's a problem when the people who are supposed to be front and center your face of your office are leaving. it's not staff behind-the-scenes. symone sanders was a big name no matter who she worked for. >> and symone sanders i sparred with her on the set. very talented spokesperson. it's my view the white house did not have her out there enough. she should have been a visible face of the biden administration. she is very talented. i am fascinated what took place on air fo

this is the natural end result. >> harris: just another thing symone sanders is someone we both know from covering bernie sanders and all that. he is one of the most outspoken people and doesn't dodge questions. he asks his own question sometimes. he likes to talk. this is the polar opposite in terms of hiding and doing the walkaway. it is also at the other end of the spectrum politically in just how far left symone sanders might have been when she walked into this administration. >> even in one of her statements didn't make sense. when we think about kamala harris being a problem of the her letter stated some kind of word salad about undoing what has happened before and -- it was a wordy kind of sentence that made no sense at all and i thought oh, that's part of the problem. let me bring you into this. i'm sitting here, this show is a success because of you and your personality but you have a team that's working with you. but they know you. you make sure what you want is known. so they are facilitating what you want and who you are. that didn't exist -- it existed with sanders. it do

. >> harris: what's fascinating about that the woman leaving kamala harris's side, symone sanders camebernie sanders and a superstar with him. political superstar on that sieftd aisle and she was working with somebody who took every question, didn't do the walkaway. very much a progressive. very interesting. all right. biden tells yet another tall tale. story time. the president this week telling reporters on wednesday during the 1967, six day war in israel he met with prime minister golda meir being a liaison between israel and egypt. gold yeah maier was not prime minister during the six day war and joe biden was actually-in-law school. >> president biden: in israel i said all of a sudden i realized i was getting old. i have known every prime minister well since golda meir. and in the six-day war i had an opportunity -- she invited me to come over because i would be the liaison between her and the egyptians about the suez and so forth. >> harris: crystal, take a crack. >> when you've been in office for over 40 years you are bond to make a quick misstep. i don't think it's intentional

symone sanders one of her most trusted advisors is calling it quits after less than a year in the jobce priebus. what is happening over there, the second big time departure in the last couple of weeks. >> it is one thing to have a little white house drama that happens in every administration but it is another thing when you are completely ineffective. what is happening here is all the drama, all the problems in public policy. you talked about crime, the border, inflation, supply chains, gas prices, now covid has got a new variant, the president said he was going to get it under control. he has not. and then you have a vp that is unpopular. the bigger issue is this. these two people, the president and the vice president are completely unusable on the campaign trail. we talked about this a couple months ago before the virginia race. the problem is it's one thing to be at 38% approval or in harris's case 28% approval. the problem is what obama and trump didn't have was that they were not completely unpopular within the party. trump had always 95% approval. people would run through a wall

right now we know symone sanders is leaving. also the press operations director and vincent evans, the deputy director of public engagement and intergovernmental affairs also will be leaving soon. the washington post out with a headline, a kamala harris staff exodus reignites questions about her leadership style and future ambitions. an anonymous former staff member told the post, it's clear you're not working with somebody who is willing to do the prep and the work. with kamala you have to put up with soul destroying and criticism and her lack of confidence so you're propping up a bully and it's not clear why. that's coming from an anonymous former staff member. a top harris aide writes the ceaseless staff turnover will continue unless the white house takes charge and he provides stewardship for the vice president's office, the stakes for vice president -- for president biden and the nation are high. this must be swiftly put to rest. the vice president and press secretary jen psaki playing down any issues, citing simple staff t

this week we learned vice president harris' top spokesperson symone sanders would be leaving her post after three years working for the administration and the campaign before that. the departure led to a flood of stories questioning harris' leadership style. but as "the washington post" reports, her defenders say the criticism against her is often steeped in the same racism and same sexism who have followed a woman who has been a first in every job she's done for over the past two decades, end of quote. do you feel the vice president is being treated fairly, congressman? >> well, i believe that there's an orchestrated attempt to make it seem like she's unfair to other people, and it's orchestrated by people who have different axes to grind. but she's in the office for 10, 12 months. there's going to be turnover no matter where you are. if we ever need an example, all we need to look back at the trump administration, where every week there was turnover, and every month there were six, seven, eight, nine people being replaced. so we should be very, very hesitant about buying into this r

s press secretary and senior advisers symone sanders who got physical on campaign trail to keep protestersrom the bidens. >> i love symone. and i can't wait to see what she will do next and i know that it's been, you know, it's been three years of a lot of jumping on and off planes and going around the country. >> white house veterans blame broken promises. >> border, inflation, supply chain, gas prices, now covid has got a new variant. the president said he was going to get it under control. he has not. and then you have got a vp that is unpopular. >> that's the trend, harris clocks in at 40% approval in a recent fox poll. 10 points lower than june. so the harris office is taking applications. >> it's also an opportunity, as it is in any white house to bring? new faces, new voices and new progressives. >> if harris continues to struggle expect more medicine lines like this you been in politico. buzz buttigieg 2024. the transportation secretary responded today on a trip to north carolina. >> it's 2021. i'm excited to be part of the team led by the president and vice president. >> the harri

first it was her communication director and now senior adviser and chief spokesperson symone sanders. looks like the staff is quickly realizing that the v.p.'s office is a sinking ship and fleeing for the life boat. >> there is obviously others as well. do you feel like you are in the middle of a staff shakeup and do you see this as a re-set for your office? >> well, i told you how i feel about symone. next question? [laughter] pete pete there is the laugh. poor kamala is sinking further and further into turmoil and nobody wants to deal with it, herself included. the since the day she took office the v.p. has been the center of disaster after disaster. first task was to fix the border. and we all know how that turned out. >> do you have any plans to visit the border? >> i at some pointed, you know, we are going to the border. we have been to the border. so this whole -- this whole thing about the border, we have been to the border. we have been to the border. >> you haven't been to the border. >> and i haven't been to europe.

so this reporting comes this week as symone sanders, one of the most high-profile aides to kamala harrisn the coming weeks. this comes amidweeksweeks of headlines of dysfunction in the vice president's office. each aide that is leaving has different reasons for doing so, but it puts a renewed spotlight on the vice president's management style. throughout her career, she's struggled at times to keep staff around her. she entered the vice president's office with few aides that had worked with her before. many of the people around her were new to her orbit, which surprised some people given her long political career in california and then in the senate. many of her aides that worked on her presidential campaign are not with her in the vice president's office. though, as we note in this story, they're in the biden administration, just not working for her. and i think, you know, many people around her downplay some of these incidents and say that some of these exits are just due to it's tough to work in the white house and it is expected people leave after a year. the larger questions are abo
