WASHINGTON (AP) — White House deputy press secretary T.J. Ducklo has resigned, the day after he was suspended for issuing a sexist and profane threat to a journalist seeking to cover his relationship with another reporter.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki announced the move in a statement Saturday, and said Ducklo’s decision came with the support of White House chief of staff Ron Klain.

“We are committed to striving every day to meet the standard set by the President in treating others with dignity and respect, with civility and with a value for others through our words and our actions,” Psaki said.

It’s the first departure from the new White House, less than a month into President Joe Biden’s tenure.

Didn’t he claim to have lung cancer some time ago? Is that even true?

Psaki said yesterday that a one week suspension was appropriate.

Now today she has to fire the guy.

LOL!

He’s got jungle fever, and yelled at a hot White chick.
The White girl’s coworker was looking into whether he was having a relationship with the Black reporter.

Yeah, she said it was her call to not fire him, and that Biden didn’t know about it. Oops!

Nothing like wearing the boss’ stripes. She got burned.

Good. He had to “resign”. Or else it would be double standard.

They can change more than that. He's a democrat. He can change his gender if he wants.

TJ was one of the main reasons Trump was defeated. He will go on to do great things. Jenna, do you know how many Scaramuccis are left in Trump’s political career? ZERO: 0

BREAKING: WH accepts resignation of TJ Ducklo.

For those keeping score, he lasted 1.5 Scaramuccis.

You wish, this POS will probably already had a new job in Captain Dementias maladministration before he signed his resignation. Cow patties always flop together.
