<p>White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was promoted to senior adviser to the president on Monday with just over three months remaining in President Joe Biden&#8217;s term in the White House, according to <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/white-house-press-secretary-karine-jean-pierre-promoted/story?id=114546837" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ABC News</a>.</p>
<p>Jean-Pierre, who began serving as press secretary on May 13, 2022, will now join the innermost circle of Biden&#8217;s advisers, which includes Mike Donilon, Steve Richetti, and Bruce Reed. Along with serving as senior adviser to Biden, Jean-Pierre will continue her press secretary duties.</p>
<p>&#8220;Karine has been a trusted advisor to the President and all of us here at the White House since day one. Her counsel will be critical to get as much done as possible for the American people in the coming months,&#8221; said White House Chief of Staff Jeff Zients, ABC News reported.</p>
<p>Upon being tapped by Biden to take over as press secretary in 2022, Jean-Pierre, 50, was praised in the media for being the first black woman and the first openly gay person to become the White House press secretary. Jean-Pierre was part of the Biden-Harris 2020 campaign, serving as <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-out/harris-chief-staff-karine-jean-pierre-how-biden-win-could-n1237180" target="_blank" rel="noopener">chief of staff</a> for Kamala Harris. She also worked for former President Barack Obama&#8217;s campaign and in the Obama administration.</p>
<p>Jean-Pierre has frequently been slammed by conservatives, especially after facing questions from Fox News&#8217; Peter Doocy in the briefing room. Last month, the press secretary <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kjp-defends-calling-trump-a-threat-after-shes-confronted-by-peter-doocy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">defended</a> referring to former President Donald Trump as a &#8220;threat&#8221; just two days after the Republican nominee was the target of a second assassination attempt.</p>
<p>After Biden dropped out of the 2024 race in July, Jean-Pierre had to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/karine-jean-pierre-falsely-claimed-parkinsons-doctor-didnt-meet-biden-in-january" target="_blank" rel="noopener">correct</a> herself after falsely stating that the president did not meet with a Parkinson&#8217;s doctor earlier in the year when he did. Jean-Pierre was also blasted after <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-dropping-out-had-nothing-to-do-with-his-health-white-house-claims" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claiming</a> that Biden was &#8220;selfless&#8221; to end his campaign, adding that Biden&#8217;s decision to drop out of the race had “nothing to do with his health.”</p>

Is In Theaters NOW — Get Your Tickets Here!</a></b></p>
<p>During an appearance on &#8220;The View&#8221; two days after Biden dropped out of the race, Jean-Pierre said calls for him to resign the presidency were &#8220;ridiculous.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The president decided to not run for reelection. That’s it. That’s all he decided on,&#8221; she <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/media/4788047-karine-jean-pierre-dismisses-calls-biden-resignation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>. &#8220;He wants to continue to do the work.&#8221;</p>
