Karine Jean-Pierre now not a Democrat? Ex-WH press secy writes tell-all e book on damaged Biden administration

Why did Karine Jean-Pierre depart the Democratic Party?

The upcoming memoir guarantees a better take a look at Biden’s choice to exit the 2024 presidential race towards Donald Trump and Jean Pierre’s choice to turn into an Independent. “Jean-Pierre didn’t come to her decision to be an Independent lightly,” Hachette Book Group says in a promotional launch. 

“She has served two American presidents, Obama and Biden… She takes us through the three weeks that led to Biden’s abandoning his bid for a second term and the betrayal by the Democratic Party that led to his decision.”

Meanwhile, Jean-Pierre mentioned in a press release, “Until January 20, I was responsible for speaking on behalf of the President of the United States.” 

“At noon on that day, I became a private citizen who, like all Americans and many of our allies around the world, had to contend with what was to come next for our country. I determined that the danger we face as a country requires freeing ourselves of boxes. We need to be willing to exercise the ability to think creatively and plan strategically.”

The 50-year-old succeeded Jen Psaki as press secretary in 2022. She beforehand served as deputy press secretary and a senior advisor to Biden’s 2020 marketing campaign. Before that, she was a regional political director throughout Obama’s first time period. Throughout the November race, Jean-Pierre confronted criticism, particularly for being evasive in regards to the former president’s well being. 

Legacy Lit’s announcement on Wednesday additional states that Jean-Pierre “presents clear arguments and provocative evidence as an insider about the importance of dismantling the torrent of disinformation and misinformation that has been rampant in recent elections and provides passionate insight for moving forward,” per the outlet.
