Karoline Leavitt’s resignation leaves President Donald Trump without an immediate plan for a replacement as White House press secretary, an official tells multiple outlets. The report says the White House is adjusting its approach to press briefings following her departure.
The sources add that press briefings will be handled by top officials rather than a single named successor. They note this mirrors the arrangement used intermittently during Leavitt’s maternity leave. While no immediate replacement is confirmed, names are being discussed for a later, permanent role, according to the reports.
Overall, outlets present the same core development: Leavitt resigns, the White House temporarily pivots to other senior officials for briefings, and a longer-term replacement is still under consideration.
