The next White House press secretary won’t be Sean Hannity or anyone else from Fox News, instead, the job is going to an insider. Melania Trump announced her own Directors of Communications, Stephanie Grisham would be taking over for Sarah Sanders.
According to the First Lady’s tweet, Grisham won’t just be taking over Sanders’ duties, but will also be taking on the communication’s job that Bill Shine left earlier this year.
The New York Times points out:
Ms. Grisham joined the Trump campaign in 2015 and is one of the last remaining aides from Mr. Trump’s campaign still serving in the White House. She became a trusted aide after the Trumps moved into the White House, known for defending Mrs. Trump and the Trump family, and for her ability to keep the East Wing relatively free of leaks.
No word on whether Grisham will restart regular press briefings.
