Karoline Leavitt Quits as White House Press Secretary

Leavitt, who served Trump as a press aide during his first go-around in the White House, has been one of the



most visible advocates of Trump's "Make America Great Again" movement. The Republican president described her as one of his "most trusted aides" in a social media post announcing her departure. 

He said Leavitt "will be departing her role at the end of the month so she can spend more time with her beautiful young children and family, a decision I totally understand and respect.
