华盛顿——特朗普总统周三在Truth Social平台上宣布,白宫新闻秘书卡罗琳·利夫特将于8月底离任,转而担任总统的高级外部顾问。
总统表示,她离职是为了能有更多时间陪伴家人。利夫特于5月迎来了自己的第二个孩子——一名女婴,不久前刚重返白宫工作。
特朗普写道:“我们优秀的白宫新闻秘书、我最信任的助手之一卡罗琳·利夫特,将于本月底离任,以便能有更多时间陪伴她可爱的年幼子女和家人,我完全理解并尊重这一决定!”“卡罗琳接下来将成为我的顶级外部顾问之一,也是共和党内部极具影响力的声音,届时我们将一同打破历史桎梏,全力赢得中期选举的决定性胜利。”
他继续说道:“卡罗琳在白宫一直是真正的领导者,自2018年以来,她在捍卫正义、自由和权利方面表现出色,包括我们2024年的历史性连任竞选。”“卡罗琳是白宫历史上最优秀的新闻秘书之一。谢谢你,卡罗琳,出色完成了你的工作!”

目前尚不清楚下一任白宫新闻秘书人选,也不确定过渡期将由谁填补该职位。
利夫特自总统第二任期开始以来一直担任白宫新闻秘书,她感谢特朗普给予她担任这一高关注度职位的机会。
“说实话,在女儿出生后重返白宫以来,我内心一直清楚,我无法在投入白宫新闻秘书岗位所需的恒定时间、精力和注意力的同时,成为两个年幼孩子应得的最好母亲——这也是我最终做出这个喜忧参半的决定,离开白宫开启人生新篇章的原因,”利夫特写道。“特朗普总统邀请我继续在外部担任他的高级顾问,我将永远坚定支持让美国再次伟大(MAGA)运动和共和党。”

Washington — White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt will be exiting her role at the end of August, switching to a role as a top outside adviser, President Trump announced on Truth Social Wednesday.
The president said she’s leaving so she can spend more time with her family. Leavitt had a baby girl, her second child, in May, and recently returned to the White House.
“Our wonderful White House Press Secretary, and one of my most trusted aides, Karoline Leavitt, will be departing her role at the end of the month so she can spend more time with her beautiful young children and family, a decision I totally understand and respect!” Mr. Trump wrote. “Karoline will now be one of my top outside advisors, and an influential voice within the Republican Party, as we work to defy History, and conclusively win the Midterm Elections.”
“Karoline has been a real leader in the White House, and has done a phenomenal job fighting for Justice, Liberty, and Freedom, since 2018, including our Historic Re-Election Campaign of 2024,” he continued. “Karoline has been one of the best White House Press Secretaries in the History of the Office. Thank you, Karoline, for a job well done!”

It’s not yet clear who the next White House press secretary will be, or who will fill in during the interim.
Leavitt has been the White House press secretary since the beginning of the president’s second term, and she thanked Mr. Trump for the opportunity to serve in the high-profile role.
“The truth is since returning to the White House after the birth of my daughter, I have felt in my heart that I cannot be the best mom my two young children deserve while devoting the constant time, energy, and attention required of the White House Press Secretary — and that is why I have ultimately made the bittersweet decision to depart the White House and embark on a new chapter in my life,” Leavitt wrote. “President Trump has asked me to continue serving as a top advisor to him on the outside, and I will always remain a vocal advocate for MAGA and the Republican Party.”
