Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s Remarks to New Media Members, April 30, 2025

On April 30, 2025, I convened a special briefing for new media representatives in the Brady Press Briefing Room.

My goal was to ensure that every platform—traditional outlets, podcasters, bloggers, and social-media influencers alike—has direct access to ask questions and share information with the White House.

Over the course of more than two hours, I underscored our administration’s commitment—under President Trump’s leadership—to transparency, accessibility, and America’s sustained growth on every front, from economic strength and national security to cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence and drone oversight.
