A recent remark from the 36th White House press secretary about the former president’s return to the spotlight has sparked backlash and stirred debate over political decorum. Karoline Leavitt made headlines with her blunt response to former President Joe Biden’s first public address since leaving office. His speech, delivered on April 15, 2025, focused on Social Security.
In her statement, Leavitt remarked, “My first reaction when seeing former President Biden was speaking tonight was, I’m shocked that he is speaking at nighttime. I thought his bedtime was much earlier than his speech tonight.”
