A series of political missteps early in Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney’s (D-NY) tenure as chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) has some Democrats reportedly questioning whether he is capable of protecting the Democrats’ slim majority in the U.S. House of Representatives.
A “plugged-in” House Democrat staffer told the
New York Post this weekend that Democrat members are concerned Maloney is not doing an effective job as chairman of the party’s reelection efforts.
“Members are discouraged with him right now,” the House Democrat aide, who was anonymous, said. “People would like for him to focus on how to protect vulnerable and moderate members and how do we do incumbency protection when [progressives] are coming after us for seats.”
Women and people of color have left Mailchimp in droves in recent months.
Those who spoke to Insider said Mailchimp has for years let toxic leaders thrive while failing to address inequalities.
More than 30 current and former employees told Insider why they think Mailchimp is driving away diverse talent.
On November 12, Mailchimp CEO Ben Chestnut sent a Slack message to his employees saying he wanted to acknowledge the elephant in the room. We ve had more people than usual leave the company lately, including some great leaders, he said in the message, which was viewed by Insider.
Those departures included many of Mailchimp s highest-ranking women and people of color. Since the start of 2020, Mailchimp has lost two female C-level executives, one female Chief Information Security Officer, one female vice president, and at least eight women or people of color at the director or senior director level.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s (DCCC) latest hire, Erica Joy Baker, has a history of espousing anti-law enforcement sentiments on social media, expressing hatred for police officers and likening them to “modern day slave patrol.”
The DCCC, which is chaired by Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney (D-NY), announced Monday they hired Baker (pictured) as the committee’s chief technology officer (CTO).
“Erica Joy Baker will be the first-ever Chief Technology Officer at the DCCC, and Chris Hayden will serve as the first-ever disabled communications director at the committee. Together, these hires bring a wealth of experience to the DCCC,” the DCCC said in a press release Monday.
