Psaki had this parting message:

She will be the first black woman and the first openly LGBTQ+ person to serve as the White House Press Secretary. Representation matters and she will give a voice to many, but also make many dream big about what is truly possible.

She is passionate. She is smart and she has a moral core that makes her not just a great colleague, but an amazing Mom and human. Plus, she has a great sense of humor.

I can’t wait to see her shine as she brings her own style, brilliance and grace to the podium.

Fox News reported:

“I am proud to announce that Karine Jean-Pierre will serve as the next White House Press Secretary,” the president said Thursday. “Karine not only brings the experience, talent and integrity needed for this difficult job, but she will continue to lead the way in communicating about the work of the Biden-Harris Administration on behalf of the American people.”

Biden added: “Jill and I have known and respected Karine a long time and she will be a strong voice speaking for me and this Administration.”

The president went on to praise Psaki for having “set the standard for returning decency, respect and decorum to the White House Briefing Room.”

“I want to say thank you to Jen for raising the bar, communicating directly and truthfully to the American people, and keeping her sense of humor while doing so,” the president said. “I thank Jen her service to the country, and wish her the very best as she moves forward.”

The White House also announced Thursday the return of Anita Dunn as a senior advisor and assistant to the president. Dunn rejoins the White House staff from her communications and political consulting firm SKDK, and will assist in advancing the President’s policy and communications objectives.

As Daily Mail noted, there are rumors that Psaki will continue spewing fake news on MSNDC.

It was previously reported that Psaki will be joining left-wing television network MSNBC, though she never confirmed the new gig when asked about it in the past.
