From the Daily Caller: Secretary of State Antony Blinken is signaling that he is checking out and has zero interest in serving under a possible Harris-Walz administration.
Blinken has been tasked with overseeing U.S. foreign policy for the last three years, a role that has become increasingly demanding amid global wars and rising geopolitical tensions. Blinken indicated on Thursday that he is looking forward to wrapping up his job — as Biden is set to leave office in January — and will not serve in a role alongside Harris.
“As to my own future, all I’m looking at right now is the balance of this administration and January,” Blinken said at a press conference on Thursday. “And I can tell you from having spent some time over the last week on a bit of a break with my kids, I will relish having a lot more time with them.”
The State Department declined to expand on Blinken’s comments, telling the Daily Caller News Foundation it didn’t “have anything to add.”
