ABANDON SHIP! Biden Climate Adviser Gina McCarthy Resigns, White House Confirms

Published on

Like scurried rats on a sinking ship, they’re saving themselves one by one as members of the Biden admin are jumping at a record pace. White House national climate adviser Gina McCarthy is the latest member seen to be saving herself from political ruin.

According to the White House, Biden’s top climate aide is finally stepping down after rumors began circulating as early as the beginning of this year.

“Reports that I have resigned from my position as President Biden’s National Climate Advisor are simply inaccurate,” McCarthy wrote at the time. “We’ve made great progress these past 14 months, but we have much more work to do — and I remain excited about the opportunities ahead.”

Apparently, McCarthy isn’t that excited anymore and appears to be making a run for the exit just weeks after President Joe Biden signed the most expensive climate change bill, $370 billion, in U.S. history.

“Gina is indeed leaving us,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters Friday.

“She, as you know, has been a leader in what we have seen as one of the largest investment in dealing with climate change,” Jean-Pierre said.

“We are very sad to lose her,” the Press Secretary added.

Biden boasted of McCarthy’s accomplishments while in office via a press statement released not long after the news broke.

“Under Gina McCarthy and Ali Zaidi’s leadership, my administration has taken the most aggressive action ever, from historic legislation to bold executive actions, to confront the climate crisis head-on,” Biden wrote. “The Inflation Reduction Act is the biggest step forward on clean energy and climate in history, and it paves the way for additional steps we will take to meet our clean energy and climate goals.”

Reports as to why McCarthy is leaving her Biden post have yet to surface, but McCarthy’s last day as national climate advisor will be Sept. 16.

Deputy Assistant to the President and Deputy National Climate Advisor Ali Zaidi will be promoted to McCarthy’s position.
