THE White House has suspended their deputy press secretary TJ Ducklo after threatening to “destroy” a reporter when asked about his affair with another journalist.
Ducklo, 32, threatened Politico reporter Tara Palmeri last month after one of her colleagues reached out for comment on a story about his relationship with Axios reporter Alexi McCammond.
Who is TJ Ducklo?
Born September 22, 1988, TJ Ducklo is a political advisor and a White House deputy press secretary for Joe Biden‘s administration.

Who is TJ Ducklo dating?
Ducklo is reportedly dating Alexi McCammond, 27, an NBC/MSNBC contributor and reporter for Axios.
McCammond covered Biden’s presidential campaign in 2019 and 2020, and got to know Ducklo, who was Biden’s press secretary at the time.
The two began dating in November 2020.
“We both realized we both felt the same way,” Ducklo told PEOPLE.
“We’re both really happy, and we wanted to do it the right way.”
McCammond was asked to be taken off the Biden beat after revealing to her editors about her relationship with Ducklo.
The 27-year-old Axios reporter said she didn’t “think twice” about her decision.
“When my personal life had the potential to interfere with my work, I didn’t think twice about sharing my happiness in November with Axios that I’d found someone in TJ who shows up for me in a way I’d only hoped for,” McCammond told the outlet.
“Switching beats was an easy decision thanks to my Axios [family], who had my back in November and know just how lovely it is to find someone who cares deeply about you.”
Ducklo likewise “disclosed the relationship to his bosses at the very beginning of the relationship,” a White House source said, calling him “an incredibly talented and valued member of the team.”
