Karoline Leavitt Named Youngest Press Secretary

President-elect Donald Trump has appointed 27-year-old Karoline Leavitt as his White House press secretary, making her the youngest person to hold the position. Leavitt, a staunch supporter of Trump's 'America First' agenda, previously served as assistant press secretary during Trump's first term and as the national press secretary for his 2024 campaign. Known for her combative style and disdain for mainstream media, Leavitt has been a prominent figure at Trump's rallies and court appearances. Her appointment continues Trump's trend of selecting loyalists for key positions, sometimes facing criticism even within his party. Leavitt, who ran for Congress in New Hampshire in 2022, has a history with Fox News and has been involved with Trump's team since his first presidential campaign. Trump's choice reflects his strategy of disrupting traditional Washington norms and prioritizing media savvy in his administration's messaging.
