It\u2019s basically anyone that the president calls or anyone that even his direct staff calls and solicits advice from can be a private adviser to the president.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Executive privilege is defined by the DOJ as \u201cthe president\u2019s authority to withhold certain sensitive information for the public good,\u201d and is used to keep certain communications between the president and top U.S. officials private.<\/p>\n<p>Rubin alleged that the administration\u2019s vague language to describe \u201cprivate advisers\u201d is intentional because \u201cthey want it to cover any time the president picks up the phone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=5422\">CNN Data Guru Stunned by Trump\u2019s \u2018Atrocious\u2019 Polling<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Conservative Amanda Carpenter, a fierce Trump critic, suggested that the president is trying to \u201cshield any kind of accountability that may come later\u201d with the memo.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI view this as a kind of preemptive strike against any accountability that might come after the midterm elections,\u201d she told the panel.<\/p>\n<p>Trump, 80, announced on Truth Social on Wednesday that Leavitt would be departing from her role at the end of August \u201cso she can spend more time with her beautiful young children and family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKaroline will now be one of my top outside advisors, and an influential voice within the Republican Party, as we work to defy History, and conclusively win the Midterm Elections,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Leavitt shared her own statement on social media, confirming that she would remain in the president\u2019s orbit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPresident Trump has asked me to continue serving as a top advisor to him on the outside, and I will always remain a vocal advocate for MAGA and the Republican Party,\u201d she wrote in the statement.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>No immediate successor to Leavitt as the White House Press Secretary was named, but sources with knowledge of the situation told the Daily Beast that MAGA political commentator Scott Jennings is the current frontrunner.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=5420\">Trump Uses Wild Catering Truck Escape in SCOTUS plea for Ballroom<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The timing of Karoline Leavitt\u2019s surprise departure from the White House may be more calculated than it seems.
