When Biden dropped out of the race on Sunday 7/21, Dunn found out one minute before the public, on a call with the rest of Biden’s staff.

Backstory: multiple sources tell FOX there was a longstanding rift between Hunter Biden, Dunn, and Dunn’s husband, Bob Bauer – who advocated that President Biden keep his son’s legal issues far away from the White House. After Biden’s debate tanked his campaign, Hunter “got his way” – and the inner circle shrank to exclude Dunn.

A source familiar with Dunn’s exit says that she could have remained in her role should she have chosen to – and pointed FOX to glowing statements about Dunn from nearly a half-dozen top officials.
