WASHINGTON, DC
Karoline Leavitt
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, who earned a reputation for acid putdowns of journalists, is to step down, President Donald Trump announced on Aug. 12, adding she would remain a senior advisor.
Leavitt, 28, the youngest-ever U.S. presidential top spokesperson, has been a fiercely loyal Trump defender, delivering fluent and aggressive performances at often combative press briefings.
