Karine Jean-Pierre, the former White House press secretary, announced in her new book "Independent: A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines" that she is leaving the Democratic Party and will run as an independent, citing that "she witnessed the party leadership betraying Biden in 2024." She wrote, "I saw Democratic leaders abandon and ultimately betray a president who led the country through the pandemic and political turmoil." Jean-Pierre accused the party's top leaders of launching a full-scale campaign to force him out after his debate performance against Trump, calling it "a complete humiliation." As the first openly gay and Black White House press secretary, Jean-Pierre served at the White House for over two years, defending the Biden-Harris administration. In an interview, she said that the Democrats not only politically abandoned Biden but also "failed to clearly explain the major achievements of their government." She described Biden as "one of the most honest people I've ever known," and emphasized, "Objectively speaking, it was an excellent presidential term. Some even say his accomplishments were more than those of most presidents' two terms." Although she still believes that Trump is "a threat to democracy," the "coup" within the party against Biden made her "unable to be part of such a system anymore."
