Emily Underwood, top deputy to Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, has announced a departure for Trust Ventures, a venture capital firm, where she will be a partner.

Underwood’s departure set off fireworks on social media.

“It’s a sinking ship,” Democratic strategist Mike Nellis posted on X about the news.

“Rat flees sinking ship,” Jason Tufele Carl Johnson, a former staffer for Rep. Raul Grijalva in Arizona, posted on X.

    Even if the rats are fleeing a sinking ship, somehow Trump convinces even more rats to get on board.

      Yup, it’s not like he needs to find people with qualifications. They just need to be able to smile and nod while lying.

      That’s not fair to rats. The rats are not responsible for the ship sinking. The rats are just getting out of a bad situation.

      These people can see prison in their future.
