Karine Jean-Pierre’s Book Greeted With a ‘WTF’ Chorus

June 4, 2025 · 5:27 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“Former White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s new attempt to distance herself from the Democratic Party while diagnosing its problems is landing with a thud,” NOTUS reports.

“A vague synopsis of a new book from the former press secretary was met with jeers from her former colleagues.”

Said one former White House official: “She always talked about how close she was to Biden and now to turn around and do this. It’s so gross.”

Said a second: “How out of touch do you need to be that your takeaway from the past 12 months is, ‘I’m leaving the party because the party left Joe Biden.’”

S.E. Cupp: “I talk to a lot of Democrats, and believe me when I tell you, they are desperate to move past Biden. That’s hard when news from Bidenworld keeps popping up, and none of it good.”
