President Biden's Chief of Staff Ron Klain intends to step down in the weeks following Biden's State of the Union address, according to reports.
An exact timeline for Klain's departure has not yet been set, the Times and CNN reports say, though the president's annual address will take place on Feb. 7. and has long worked by his side. He acted as a senior adviser to Biden's 2020 campaign, and was Biden's chief of staff when the now-president was vice president. Klain also served as chief of staff to vice president Al Gore.
The president entered the new year with momentum after Democrats exceeded expectations in the midterm elections. But Biden is now under increased scrutiny after a cache of classified documents House Republicans, who won back the chamber last fall, plan to investigate the Biden administration and the"weaponization of the federal government,” including the DOJ’s probes into the Biden documents and different confidential files found at former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence in August.
