🗣 Pentagon spokesman John Kirby moving to the White House
Defense Department press secretary John Kirby will move to the White House in a senior communications role with the National Security Council. In the new role, he will "coordinate interagency efforts to explain United States policy and will serve as a senior administration voice on related matters," the White House said in a statement.
He will not regularly do White House briefings, according to the current plan, but will supplement White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre at the podium when needed.
