<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Journalist Megyn Kelly weighed in on former White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre announcing that she was leaving the Democratic party and becoming an independent.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“You&#8217;ve got to be kidding me. … What a lie. … She&#8217;s going to tell us what it&#8217;s like to be an independent?” Kelly said on Wednesday’s episode of “The Megyn Kelly Show.” She went on to explain her own history as an independent, describing Jean-Pierre’s abrupt rebranding as having the “stank of desperation,” considering how she worked for the Obama and Biden administrations. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“She ran for the hills trying to pretend she knows what independence is,” Kelly added.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kelly went on to speak on others who had been in the role and how Jean-Pierre compares.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“You have had press secretaries &#8230; Dana Perino, Kayleigh McEnany, Tony Snow back in the day &#8230; who are smart people. Who are not, really, let&#8217;s face it, utter morons who are just out there as mouthpiece,” Kelly said. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She added, “Obviously. Karoline Leavitt … very smart person. But Karine Jean Pierre is not on the list. All right? Even Jen Psaki, she&#8217;s not a moron, but Karine Jean Pierre is a total moron. You only need to have watched her for two days to pick that up.” </span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“There is literally nobody in the country who wants to hear her political analysis on anything,” Kelly said. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The journalist was reacting to the </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-press-sec-karine-jean-pierre-says-shes-leaving-democrats-selling-inside-look-at-broken-wh"><span style="font-weight: 400;">news</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> of Jean-Pierre’s new memoir, “Independent: A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines.” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“In a country obsessed with blind loyalty to a two-party democratic system, Karine Jean-Pierre, former White House press secretary to the Biden-Harris administration, shares why Americans must step beyond party lines to embrace life as Independents (sic),” the book description says. “Jean-Pierre didn’t come to her decision to be an Independent (sic) lightly. She has served two American presidents, Obama and Biden.” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In the book, Jean-Pierre “urges Americans to think outside of the blue-and-red box as we consider what’s next to save our democracy,” per the description.</span></p>
