Jimmy Kimmel called out President Donald Trump’s new press secretary Karoline Leavitt, suggesting she may be worse than Sean Spicer, who lasted mere months in the role during Trump’s first administration.

Karoline Leavitt used her first briefing in the role to warn veteran reporters that they were increasingly irrelevant.

Mr. Spicer served as Donald Trump’s first White House press secretary. Mr. Ellick is the executive producer for Opinion Video. Mr. Kessel is the deputy director for Opinion Video. Why did the first Trump administration go off the rails so quickly and spectacularly?

Karoline Leavitt’s first White House press briefing reaffirmed a truism about the Trump White House: His aides perform for an “audience of one.”

WASHINGTON -- WASHINGTON (AP) — Karoline Leavitt, the youngest person to serve as White House press secretary, will make her debut in the briefing room on Tuesday. Her first briefing is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET.

Trump has picked his 27-year-old campaign press secretary to stand behind the podium in the White House briefing room.

In her first press briefing, Leavitt started with a question from an Axios journalist and made several criticisms of the media.

When Leavitt, 27, walks out into the James S. Brady Press Briefing Room on Tuesday, she'll be the youngest press secretary to do so, since Ronald Ziegler, who held the title in former President Ronald Reagan's White House at age 29.

Leavitt married Nicholas Riccio, who is 32-years her senior, after getting engaged on Christmas Day in 2023. It is unclear when they officially got married, but Leavitt has "wife" listed in her Instagram bio. Leavitt and Riccio welcomed their first child, a boy named Nicholas, in July.

The grant pause is perhaps most similar to a federal government shutdown, when a congressional impasse on spending legislation delays federal payments for some state and local services.
