White House Deputy Press Secretary TJ Dicklow has resigned after being found guilty of threatening a female journalist.
According to the International News Agency, White House Deputy Press Secretary TJ Dicklow had a special relationship with a female political reporter on which another female reporter wanted to tell a story, but TJ Dicklow threatened the woman journalist.
Reports of intimidation and ill-treatment of a woman appeared in a local magazine, which led to the White House deputy secretary being suspended without pay for a week, but Biden's administration was sharply criticized for "insufficient action".
The next day, TJ Dicklow apologized for his behavior, saying that he had used abusive, hateful and unacceptable language, adding that he was "deeply saddened" by the embarrassment and frustration of President Joe Biden and his colleagues.
"I used language that no female journalist should face," TJ Dicklow added.
However, the deputy press secretary did not accept the apology and was told by President Joe Biden at the inauguration ceremony that he would be fired on the spot if any of the administration officials acted insultingly. Had to resign
