White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt will resign at the end of the month. President Trump announced her departure via Truth Social, citing her desire to spend more time with her family. Leavitt, the youngest press secretary in history, explained that balancing motherhood with her demanding role has been immensely challenging. She believes she cannot be the best mother to her two young children while fulfilling the press secretary duties. Despite stepping down, Leavitt will remain a key figure, appointed as one of Trump's top outside advisers. She is also expected to be an influential voice within the Republican Party leading up to the midterm elections. Leavitt, 28, has been a staunch defender of the White House through numerous controversies. She has actively supported the Trump administration's approach to press coverage. This departure marks another transition for the press secretary role, having seen four individuals in the position during Trump's first term.
