Jen Psaki is leaving as White House press secretary Friday after having answered reporters’ questions nearly every weekday of the almost 500 days that President Joe Biden has been in office.
WASHINGTON — Jen Psaki had been White House press secretary less than two weeks when a reporter asked whether Twitter's ban of Donald Trump had made President Joe Biden's life easier.
Succeeding Psaki is Karine Jean-Pierre, the first Black woman and openly LGBTQ person to be White House press secretary. She takes over as the administration is navigating inflation and Russia's war with Ukraine, and as the Democratic Party is bracing for November election losses that could erase its control of Congress.
Groups cheering Psaki are common across social media, including #Psakibomb, which has more than 22 million views on TikTok. Psaki's sisters wore sweatshirts with the slogan during family Zoom calls, though it was more about gently poking fun at their sibling than making a political statement "At the end of the day, she is a policy wonk," said Jeff Zients, Biden's former COVID-19 response coordinator. He called her a"once in a generation talent" adept in both policy and communication.
Kathleen Hall Jamieson, director of the Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania, said the job of press secretary has"been done well both on the right and the left" and requires respecting the media while answering questions in ways that provide real information.
