Former colleagues of former President Joe Biden’s White House press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, are calling her out after she announced she would leave the Democratic Party and release a new book about Biden’s “broken” White House.

“The hubris of thinking you can position yourself as an outsider when you not only have enjoyed the perks of extreme proximity to power — which … bestows the name recognition needed to sell books off your name — but have actively wielded it from the biggest pulpit there is, is as breathtaking as it is desperate … It’s difficult to see how this is anything but a bizarre cash grab,” a former Biden official told Axios.
