Karoline Leavitt reportedly shopping White House memoir

Former White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt is reportedly shopping a book proposal to publishers regarding her 19-month tenure in the Trump administration. The potential memoir may offer behind-the-scenes insights into the White House press operations and private interactions involving President Donald Trump. Leavitt has already shared anecdotes, such as a private lunch where Trump reportedly criticized British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s immigration policies.

This development follows a period of heightened tension between the Trump administration and the media. The White House previously moved to ban several outlets, including CNN, Politico, and MS NOW, from the grounds, leading major television networks to temporarily suspend their White House press pool coverage in solidarity. While a judge later ordered the reinstatement of access for these outlets, the administration has continued to make day-by-day decisions regarding their participation in pool duties.

Additionally, the administration has launched Trump TV, a 24/7 streaming channel. While described as being updated in real time, analysis suggests the channel primarily broadcasts past presidential addresses and administration-themed content rather than breaking news.
