When Karoline Levit first stepped on the White House Podium, the youngest press secretary in history promised to follow his boss Donald Trump’s “revolutionary media approach”.
After less than a month after a month, the 27-year-old spokesperson has certainly lived up to his promise-by raising one of the biggest quarrels between the US President and journalists in the grave.
Lewit shocked the press corps when it announced on Tuesday that the White House itself – and the reporters did not have an independent association – so which reporters would choose to cover Trump in an oval office and the Air Force one Is.
“The White House Correspondents Association has long decided which journalists get to ask the President of the United States in the most intimate places. Now not,” he said.
This was probably the most unrelated performance by Levit, which appears comfortably whether he is explaining Trump’s most outliven -talking points or exchanging Jabs with reporters.
A veteran of Trump, who served as a spokesperson for his 2024 campaign, Levitt set a tone on 29 January with his first appearance in the James Brady briefing room.
He accused the traditional media of “lies”, unveiled the “New Media” seat for podcasters, and opened the White House to apply for press credentials in a drive, which attracted more than 12,000 inquiries.
‘Most transparent’
Their subsequent performances are equally conflict.
Levit sometimes chooses right-wing media outlets that ask the Trump Pro-Trump questions, claiming that he was excluded under the President of Biden.
Nevertheless she has also given a fluent reply to “Legacy Media”, even though she will often cut them, before they have a chance to ask a follow-up question-a long-established White House tradition.
Levitt has also learned the first lesson of Trumpworld – never raised his boss up.
Trump, Ghagh Showman and former reality TV star, have spoken to reporters almost every day since returning to the White House.
Conversely, Levitt has only given a handful of briefing and is more likely to pop up on conservative Fox News.
She insists that Republican is the best person to explain her policies and has repeatedly described Trump as the “most transparent president in history”.
But Levit has become a major battle on rapid transparency and press access, for this a rapid promoter has become.
After blocking the news agency from the incidents, she was one of the three White House officials nominated by Associated Press in a trial as it refused to call the Gulf of Mexico a “Gulf of America”, as Trump’s executive order Its name was changed in form.
Levit strongly defended the decision to bars AP, stating that the new name for the water body was now a “fact” despite Mexico and other countries.
‘Smart, hard’
Trump said that when he appointed Levitt soon after his election victory in November, she was “smart, strict”.
And Levit is nothing if Trump is not loyal.
Picked up at New Hampshire, where his family ran an ice cream shop, sent a letter to his university newspaper in 2017, opposing the fact that a professor criticized Trump in class.
In his first term, an experienced of the press office, she unsuccessfully ran for a seat on a seat on the Pro-Gan Swamitha Manch for a seat at Congress in New Hampshire in 2022.
He then won his praise for Steel television performance during his 2024 campaign.
On social media, Levit is a polished appearance, mixing life shots as a young working mother, with a clip of Fox News going after “fake news” media.
His loyalty was such that he returned to work four days after his first child’s birth when Trump survived an attempt to murder at a political rally in June last June.
“I looked at my husband and said,” It seems that I am going back to work, “Levit told the Conservator magazine in an article called” Wonder Woman “.
