Politico reported:
First Lady Melania Trump’s top policy aide has left the White House, according to multiple people familiar with the matter. Reagan Hedlund, a former executive assistant at the National Security Council who joined the first lady’s staff in January as policy director, left the role last week.
….
Melania Trump’s small staff is tight-knit and has a reputation for avoiding leaks. Indeed, multiple West Wing aides and others close to President Donald Trump’s administration said they either hadn’t heard about Hedlund’s departure or were unsure of the exact reason.
Being Melania Trump’s policy director appears to be an empty job, as Mrs. Trump is most often used when the White House needs someone who is capable of acting like a human being to appear after a natural disaster or to do PR for their unpopular child separation policy. Mrs. Trump does have any policy initiatives of her own. Her anti-bullying “Be Best” campaign was lifted from Michelle Obama, so being this First Lady’s policy adviser seems like a fairly empty job.
The resignations should move at a rapid pace after the midterm election. For an administration that already can’t fill many key positions, the departure of more staff could make a bad situation even worse.
The Trump ship is sinking, which is why White House staff are looking to get out.
