Lemon LIVE at 5 | Karine Jean-Pierre Leaves the Democratic Party - June 4th, 2025

White House press secretary turned author Karine Jean-Pierre is making headlines, this time for her new book Independent (dropping this October) and her surprise announcement that she’s leaving the Democratic Party to register as… you guessed it… an Independent. Yes, the same Karine who served as the voice of the Biden administration and a key mouthpiece for the Democratic Party is now singing a different tune. So what gives? Is this a principled shift or a carefully timed rebrand? Join us as we break down what this move really means, how it’s being received inside the Beltway, and whether this is a quiet rebuke of the party… or just a savvy pivot ahead of 2028. WE HAVE MERCH!!
