Prior to her role on the campaign, she served as Chief Public Affairs Officer for MoveOn.org and an NBC and MSNBC Political Analyst. Jean-Pierre served as Regional Political Director for the White House Office of Political Affairs during the Obama-Biden administration and as Deputy Battleground States Director for President Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign.
Biden administration
The Post said that after Dunn's plan made its way around the White House, Jean-Pierre received an unsolicited job offer from Emily's List. That group specializes in raising funds for pro-choice female Democrat candidates. Q Well, there have been some members of Congress who have called for a ceasefire, and they have not gone as far as backing the administration’s call for support for Israel. And we’re going to continue to, certainly, move forward, as you heard with the President, to ask Congress when they get back for additional — for additional assistance. So, he’s been very much focused on the issues of the, you know, horrific events that we have seen in Israel.

And like I’ve said a couple of times already, you know, the Department of Health — Homeland Security has been on — has been on top of this. We are ready to do this in a humane way and in a safe way. We first asked Congress to pass this legislation back in August of 2021, and have been working with members of Congress from both parties to try to pass it ever since. And we know that there’s a bipartisan support for this bill and that negotiations in the Senate are ongoing. It’s important to take care of our Afghan allies who took care of us during the 20 years of this — of the U.S. — of the years that U.S. was — was at war in Afghanistan. And we have joined our communities and resettled across — who have joined our communities and resettled across our country through Operation Allies Welcome.

Jean-Pierre will be the first Black woman and the first openly gay person to hold the position. And your first question was about Iran sanctions. The EU has moved, the UK has moved, the United States has moved, and we will continue to move. So, obviously, there’s a national security component here. But he is committed to getting that information out.
He doesn’t believe in trickle-down economics. The President — you saw the President’s statement. You heard it from me, you heard it from — from the mayor — our — our hearts going out to the people in Jacksonville. Certainly, we’re going to do everything that we can.
And so you’ve seen — as I started this briefing saying we’re seeing a familiar face in the press briefing room. And that’s because we’ve been trying to be very consistent on pushing that message out and letting people know that they need to get the new vaccine. We know it works, especially as they’re going to see their grandparents, as they’re going to see families — how important it is to get that new vaccine for themselves but also for their loved ones.

It is a difficult environment to move forward some legislation, but every single thing that we can do by executive order the President has been leaning on. There are a lot of challenges that people face. But we certainly believe that part of Dr. King’s message, and all the other amazing organizers of the March on Washington, focused on — on the economy — on the economy and jobs and — and freedom. But we’d like much more support from Congress in moving these things forward.

A lot of that is because of this work that this President has done since day one of his administration. So — so, we are increasingly confident that Prigozhin died in the plane crash that took place on August 23rd, this past Wednesday. I don’t have any new assessment on th- — on — for you on this. And so, again, we will be there, the federal government will be there, certainly at the direction of the President, as long as it takes for this community to rebuild. And, certainly, our hearts are — continue to be with — with the families and the people in Hawaii who have lost so much. And that’s going to be — that’s going to be his focus, instead of, you know, more baseless political stunts.
A second source told The Post that “Jeff and Anita were trying to find Karine a graceful exit” because of the ugly optics of removing her against her will. Last June, in a post for Pride Month, Jean-Pierre detailed her coming-out story, in which her mother initially rejected her identity. “Just as American society has evolved over the course of the past couple of decades to embrace the LGBTQ community (never forgetting we still have work to do), my family has evolved to embrace my membership in it,” she wrote in the thread. Jean-Pierre is the first Black woman and the first openly LGBTQ person to serve as Press Secretary, since the position was first created 93 years ago.
That’s what they — that’s what they’re focusing on. And I think — I think purely as a matter of competition, not — not equity and common sense — it’s important that children understand, again, the beauty of the greatest democratic nation in the history of the world but also the challenges that brought us to this point. That action establishing these monuments in Mississippi and in Illinois was meant to make sure people understand that we cannot rewrite American history. We have to tell the good with the bad, and that is edifying to the soul of this country. And today, we are joined by the senior advisor and pres- – — and president — to the President and Director of the Office of Public Engagement, Stephen Benjamin, who is here to discuss the President’s March on Washington commemoration engagements today.
The President has been consistent about it, obviously, since 2017, but even before that, when he saw what happened in Charlottesville. We have to call out hateful, violent rhetoric. So, we’re going to let that process play out. And we believe that this is a matter of grave concern to the security of Europe, way beyond the borders of Ukraine. And actually, as you know, just in the last couple of weeks, Ukraine has passed a new mobilization law.
Now, I want to remind everybody that more than 90 percent of COVID deaths in the U.S. have occurred in people 50 years of age or older. And in recent months, we’ve seen COVID deaths really concentrated among those 65 and above. And while we’ve seen many older Americans step up and get the updated COVID vaccine, there are still too many older Americans who have not gotten their immunity updated, who have not gotten themselves protected. Under half of nursing home residents have gotten their updated COVID vaccine.
That’s why it’s so important that we remain vigilant every single day from all aspects of the administration, a whole-of-government approach, recognizing that that the work — there’s work yet to be done. When President Biden took office less than half than — less than half of the kindergarten-to-12 students were going to school in person. Thanks to his swift actions and historic investment, every school in America is open safely for in-person instruction.
“Sometimes he talks to her and she acts as if he is not talking,” said a fourth source familiar with the situation and critical of Jean-Pierre. While Jean-Pierre isn’t going anywhere, the issues that brought about Dunn’s failed machinations remain — with both sources saying the press secretary is too reliant on notes to provide the pushback and quick-thinking repartee needed to effectively champion Biden’s cause. Jean-Pierre’s predecessor, Jen Psaki, was press secretary for one week shy of 16 months before leaving to take a job as a host and analyst at MSNBC. De facto White House communications chief Anita Dunn, 66, the wife of Biden personal attorney Bob Bauer, told colleagues she had decided to call in prominent Democrats to explain to Jean-Pierre, 49, that the time was ripe to move on, sources told The Post. When the President speaks tomorrow night, you said he’s going to talk about his efforts to — to bolster democracy.
