Karoline Leavitt Says Goodbye as White House Press Secretary

  • On Thursday, Karoline Leavitt concluded her tenure as the youngest White House press secretary in history. The White House stated she "fought for the facts, defended the America First agenda, and never, ever surrendered."
  • Leavitt plans to spend more time with her family and newborn daughter following her departure. She will continue as a top outside adviser to the administration despite stepping down from the press secretary role.
  • White House communications director Steven Cheung called the press shop changes "a group decision." Leavitt and the White House Communications Staff reallocated pool spots, often favoring more supportive platforms over traditional wire reporters.
  • The administration implemented stricter access rules prohibiting reporters from "Upper Press" and Room 140 without prior appointments. The National Security Council stated these measures protect sensitive material and maintain coordination between staff.
  • Leavitt's tenure was marked by combative press relations; she declared, "The days of the Fake News Media controlling the narrative with lies... are over." She frequently labeled journalists "left-wing" hacks posing as professionals.
