White House promotes Biden official who compared police to slave patrols, wants to abolish ICE

A former Interior Department communications director in the Biden administration has been hired in a new role and will be working on communications inside the Biden White House, despite sparking controversy last year over social media posts attacking police, criticizing Republicans and supporting the anti-Israel movement.

"After more than three years at Interior working for Secretary Deb Haaland, Cherry started last week as an associate communications director at the White House," Politico reported this week.

Tyler Cherry sparked controversy last year after social media posts surfaced in which he blasted law enforcement and promoted "Russiagate."
