Former White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has announced her departure from the Democratic Party to become an independent. In her upcoming book, she shares insights about her tenure under Presidents Obama and Biden, including details of Biden's decision not to run for a second term. Notably, she highlights her role in addressing anti-LGBTQ+ legislation during her time as press secretary. Jean-Pierre, the first out LGBTQ+ individual and the first Black press secretary, served a significant number of briefings, advocating for marginalized communities.
"I would go to the podium to talk about these bills, the attack on our trans siblings, what was happening in state legislatures," Jean-Pierre stated, reflecting on her role.
