CBS News is reporting Wednesday night that White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders is planning to leave the Trump administration at the end of the year and that deputy press secretary Raj Shah is also heading for the exit, although he’s given no hint of when.

“At the end of the year” still gives us plenty of time to enjoy watching Sanders go at it with CNN’s Jim Acosta, if that’s any consolation.

They've been saying the same thing about John Kelly for months, I'll believe it when I see it. If it's true, though, that's an interesting development. https://t.co/ceNSIZf5X8

Perspective: Typically, White House press secretaries end up serving for at least a year and usually longer, with the average length being 2.9 years. If Sanders stays until the end of the year, as reported by @CBSNews, it would put her tenure in line with some others. @wkyc https://t.co/VVgu3Wn3Wp
