Karoline Leavitt is stepping down as White House press secretary at the end of August—just weeks after returning from maternity leave with her second child. President Trump is now scrambling to find a new spokesperson ahead of the fall, and Jimmy Fallon took aim with his signature late-night humor, joking that Leavitt likely found life with a four-month-old far more peaceful than navigating White House chaos—or dealing with Trump himself. Fallon also teased that Trump was blindsided by her exit, even throwing in a wild jab about blaming pool vandals. As for who might replace her? Fallon suggested Trump’s own doctor (a spin master with numbers) or CNN’s Scott Jennings—complete with a nod to “Press Secretary Bluey.” With such a high-stakes role and a volatile administration, whoever takes the reins will face an uphill battle—and the world is watching.
