Karine Jean-Pierre, the White House press secretary for Joe Biden, has announced she is leaving the Democratic Party as she releases a new, tell-all book about the administration.
KJP is becoming an Independent, which just happens to be the title of her October release, which is subtitled: "A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines."
The book's publisher says: "As a history maker, veteran public servant, political analyst and independent thinker, she urges Americans to think outside of the blue-and-red box as we consider what's next to save our democracy."
Her announcement is being hammered online, with Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA noting of the subtitle: "As though this will trick everybody into forgetting the central role she played in perpetuating the Biden cover-up. Nice try, Karine!"
Journalist Nick Sortor posted a video clip of the "Top 5 Recent Lies" told by Jean-Pierre, and said: "After spending YEARS lying and covering up Biden's cognitive decline, Karine Jean-Pierre announced she is LEAVING the Democrat Party. Why, you ask? Because she's writing a tell-all book, PROFITING OFF THE COVERUP. KJP IS TRASH! She should be in a jail cell."
Jean-Pierre made history in May 2022 as the first black and openly homosexual White House press secretary. She was also in a decade-long relationship with Suzanne Malveaux, a former CNN anchor and White House correspondent. The pair separated in September 2023.
Other comments about the book and political switch include:
"These people are all such hypocrites, it is absolutely appalling."
"The amount of audacity one must have to willfully mislead the American Public for years and then try to do damage control by telling the truth for profit is on another level entirely."
"Leaving the party will not erase everything she did to protect the Democrats. That damage is done. Her reputation is already ruined after backing their lies for so long. Does she really think people will forget that?"
"I would've respected her a lot more if she did this in a middle of a Press Conference. Not after defending Biden for 4 years in a row. This is clearly a political stunt to profit from her fading fame. Shame on her."
"Everlasting problem is when lying to people has been your job for the last 4 years, you have earned the title of a liar. It is difficult to ever overcome that. People don't always remember the lies that were told, but they never forget the liar that told them."
"I mean, [Jake] Tapper can bullsh** us by saying 'It wasn't me, it was the network!' But there are countless hours of KJP directly lying to the public, sometimes doubling and even tripling down. It will be interesting to see if the liberal media still treats her with kid gloves."
"Karine Jean-Pierre leaving the Democrat Party to become an independent is like the captain of the Titanic jumping ship, writing a book about how bad the iceberg was, and hoping nobody remembers she was steering. 'A Look Inside a Broken White House' sounds deep until you remember she was basically the tour guide. Nice try, Karine – but you don't get to spill the tea and pretend you weren't the one brewing it."
