NEW: Karoline Leavitt speaks out ahead of her last day as White House press secretary. • • "It's a little bit bittersweet. It's bitter because I'm leaving a job that I love so very much, and it's been the honor and blessing of a lifetime to work for this president, President Trump. There will never be another like him." • • Leavitt is stepping down after 20 months in the role, citing a desire to spend more time with her young family and newborn daughter while remaining a top outside advisor to the administration. • • "They're just at a critical time in their life where they need their mom home a little bit more, so I look forward to spending more time with them, but continuing to serve the president as a top advisor on the outside." | @foxandfriends

Scoop via @CBSNews: Trump hasn't settled on a replacement for press secretary Karoline Leavitt, whose last day is Friday, sources told @weijia and me. Responsibilities for White House press briefings will rotate for now, with top admin officials heading to the podium, not members of the White House press and communications staff. Susie Wiles has been looking at potential replacements for Leavitt but no frontrunners yet. Scott Jennings’ name had been floated, but he was unlikely to be the final choice. Leavitt's entire team will stay on and will report to Steven Cheung. Her executive assistant, Kieghan Nangle, is moving over to become a press wrangler. Leavitt will return to MAGA Inc., Trump's super PAC, and will continue to be a top outside adviser to the president. She has told people she will be involved in more activities that haven't yet been announced. @PressSec @SusieWiles47 @StevenCheung47 @kieghannangle @ScottJenningsKY •

Caroline Leavitt reveals her next role after leaving the White House press secretary position... What will she do at the Super PAC? Caroline Leavitt is expected to return to the major political action committee supporting Trump, MAGA Inc., after leaving the White House. The nature of her new role remains undisclosed, with details regarding her responsibilities within the committee, known as the Super PAC, still unknown. Leavitt has previous experience at MAGA Inc., having worked on Trump's 2024 presidential campaign before moving to the White House. Leavitt's departure from the White House press secretary position was due to her desire to spend more time with her family and children, as she announced. Leavitt's absence leaves a significant void in the White House press briefing room, especially since Trump has yet to announce her successor. From Al Arabiya
White House Press Secretary Lee Witt will leave her post at the end of the month to join a pro-Trump political group.

NEW w/ @wsteaks: Scott Jennings is making a push to replace Karoline Leavitt as WH press secretary. • • After clips of Jennings defending Natalie Harp made their way around the WH — including some he sent to senior staffers himself — he reached out to schedule a private meeting with Susie Wiles over the weekend, a person close to the WH told me. • • No decision was made and no offer extended. The process to replace Leavitt remains slow-moving, multiple people familiar tell @playbookdc.
