WASHINGTON — Joe Biden’s longtime White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre announced Wednesday she has left the Democratic Party and is writing a tell-all book about the “broken” administration she served.
Jean-Pierre, 50, worked as Biden’s top spokeswoman for two years and eight months and stunned fellow White House alums by announcing her book “Independent: A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines,” due out on Oct. 21.
“Jean-Pierre didn’t come to her decision to be an Independent lightly,” Hachette Book Group said in a promotional release, which hints that the former Biden spokesperson may focus her ire on figures aside from the 46th president in her account.
“She has served two American presidents, [Barack] Obama and Biden … She takes us through the three weeks that led to Biden’s abandoning his bid for a second term and the betrayal by the Democratic Party that led to his decision,” the tease goes.
“In a hard-hitting yet hopeful critique, Jean-Pierre defines what it means to be part of the growing percentage of our fractured electorate that is Independent, why it can be worthwhile to carve a political space more loyal to personal beliefs than a party affiliation, and what questions you need to ask yourself to determine where you fit politically.”
