Trump Says White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt to Leave Post The departure of White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt at the end of the month marks a significant turning point in the Trump administration's handling of media relations.
As one of the youngest and most polarizing figures to ever hold the role, Leavitt's tenure has been marked by both fierce advocacy for the president's policies and contentious interactions with the press corps.
Leavitt's decision to leave the White House is motivated by a desire to spend more time with her young family.
