  • Interview Date: May, 8 2021

BUSA Bulletin Team:

Good evening. How are you doing?

Alora Cromwell:

I am doing fine, yourselves?

BUSA Bulletin Team:

Not bad.

BUSA Bulletin Team:

You recently shared with my team a screenshot of White House Chief of Staff, Mark West saying and I quote “wtf im happy”. What do you have to say about this?

Alora Cromwell:

I believe that it is wrong of him, in a place that he should of almost everyone be supportive and work with us; that is his job I would believe.

BUSA Bulletin Team:

Do you consider The White House a toxic workplace?

Alora Cromwell:

At first I would have said no, in the beginning it was somewhere where everyone wanted to go… I did enjoy it for a while until things did start to shift. I do know Donald wants the best for us, but other members in the branch are here more for themselves than to actually do their jobs. As I said in my recent interview it is us as cabinet members look for help the most, after all it is our branch but then one cabinet meeting in specific, I know that Mark West the White House Chief of Staff did get up instead of talking about ways to improve he started targeting myself and the State Department. Then quickly after that, Secretary Hailey Walker caught in and she started to continue. As in a comment she said that really bothers be is and I quote “she was never my friend. i used her to get into the busa community”.

BUSA Bulletin Team:

Is that why you resigned earlier today?

Alora Cromwell:

That, along with other things yes.

BUSA Bulletin Team:

Do you believe you had the resources you needed for your Department?

Alora Cromwell:

Absolutely not, us as cabinet members were thrown out in the water before we knew how to swim, we could ask for things and wait weeks for something and never get it.

BUSA Bulletin Team:

What is going to happen with BUSA in terms of foreign relations? Will BUSA go independent?

Alora Cromwell:

I was requested before I did officially resign to write an executive order to make BUSA independent, and so I did; although I am unsure if that will be signed or if they will let the congress members in the White House take over and write legislation on their own.

BUSA Bulletin Team:

How will that effect people in foreign nations and in BUSA?

Alora Cromwell:

All legislation, passports and anything involving other countries will be found void, which is what I fear because people put time and effort into all these things just to go to waist.

BUSA Bulletin Team:

How long ago were you asked to resign and draft the Executive Order to make BUSA independent?

Alora Cromwell:

For around 3–4 weeks now, and I tried to hold on but these last few days have changed a lot.

BUSA Bulletin Team:

By whom?

Alora Cromwell:

It was a little bit of everyone, but after I did offer to write the Executive Order so that I could make sure BUSA wasn’t being throw out in terms of foreign relations.

BUSA Bulletin Team:

What are your future plans within BUSA?

Alora Cromwell:

My plans within BUSA…eh, well I would not be able to say for sure as I am unsure where this road is leading to.

BUSA Bulletin Team:

Some people have been saying that you have made some comments about congress, do you have anything to say about these claims?

Alora Cromwell:

Do you have any in particular?

BUSA Bulletin Team:

You apparently claimed that Congress is toxic.

Alora Cromwell:

Not really toxic, but more unorganized as not as professional as they should act.

BUSA Bulletin Team:

Alright, we have no further questions. On behalf of the American People and the BUSA Bulletin staff, we’d like to thank you for taking time to complete this interview and your effort to Deliver the Truth.

Alora Cromwell:

Thank you for having me.
