白宫新闻发言人卡罗琳·利维特宣布将于月底辞去其职务[1]。利维特表示辞职原因是希望"花更多时间陪伴家人"[1]。这一突然的人事变动在特朗普圈子内引发了对这一关键职位继任者的竞争。
根据报道，多位候选人正被考虑接替利维特的职位。阿琳娜·哈巴被纽约邮报报道称是早期热门人选，相关信息来自行政部门消息人士[1]。现任白宫副新闻发言人安娜·凯利也在考虑之列，她曾担任特朗普2024年总统竞选的发言人[1]。另外，曾在2019年至2021年期间担任副总统迈克·彭斯新闻发言人的凯蒂·米勒也被列为潜在的继任者[1]。

Among the leading contenders is Alina Habba, who has been reported by the New York Post as an early favorite for the position, according to administration sources [1]. Anna Kelly, currently serving as deputy White House press secretary and formerly Trump's 2024 presidential campaign spokeswoman, is also being considered [1]. Another candidate under consideration is Katie Miller, who previously served as press secretary to Vice President Mike Pence from 2019 to 2021 [1].
