White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced Friday that she is expecting another baby in May 2026.
Leavitt told Fox News Digital that her baby will be a girl. She and her husband, Nick, had their first child, a son named Niko, in 2024.
‘I am beyond excited to become a girl mom.’
“My husband and I are thrilled to grow our family and can’t wait to watch our son become a big brother,” said Leavitt. “My heart is overflowing with gratitude to God for the blessing of motherhood, which I truly believe is the closest thing to heaven on Earth.”
She went on to say she was “extremely grateful to President Trump and our amazing chief of staff, Susie Wiles, for their support, and for fostering a pro-family environment in the White House.”
Leavitt released a photo on her Instagram account showing the sonogram image of the new baby from a decoration on her Christmas tree. She also showed off her baby bump.
“Nearly all of my West Wing colleagues have babies and young children,” she continued. “So we all really support one another as we tackle raising our families while working for the greatest president ever.”
She will continue in her position as press secretary, according to a senior White House official.

Cowboys football player says Chargers’ video falsely portrays him as racist
The social media team for the Los Angeles Chargers was reviled by many for apparently editing a video to make it appear as if an opponent team’s player had yelled a racial epithet on the field.
The video was posted to the X platform but deleted after Cooper Beebe of the Dallas Cowboys criticized the post and denied the suggestion that he had used a racist slur.
Beebe’s words were bleeped out, which he said gave the false impression that he had said something racist.
“Imagine bleeping out what I said to make me seem racist. You guys are POS,” Beebe posted in response.
Beebe explained that he was calling out a play on the field but was accused of using an expletive. The exchange led to a penalty on the team and more trash-talking.
“He was talking s**t to me,” said Chargers player Daiyan Henley in the video. “He called me a bad word. I don’t know what he said — he said something, he pointed at me, [and] he called me a bad word. That’s called karma. Instant karma.”
Beebe’s words were bleeped out, which he said gave the false impression that he had said something racist. He later deleted his message from social media.
The Chargers’ social media team was castigated by many for the post.
“So we just move on pretending like the [C]hargers twitter account didn’t delete a tweet accusing [C]ooper [B]eebe of being racist?” read one very popular response.

“Cooper Beebe is literally one of the nicest people in the league. @chargers Stop being mad cuz you have like 5 total fans and a stadium nobody likes,” read another response.
The Chargers went on to beat Dallas by a score of 34 to 17 in the game depicted in the video.

Trump administration keeps Christ in Christmas in official holiday messages
In the spirit of the Christmas season, many departments of the Trump administration wished people a merry Christmas this week. And in most cases, they remembered to keep Christ at the center of the message.
In a video reposted by the Department of Labor, Fox News highlighted posts from Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Housing and Urban Development Secretary Scott Turner.
‘Merry Christmas, America. We are blessed to share a nation and a Savior.’
The Department of Labor’s post was captioned, “Psalm 33:12. God Bless America.”
Psalm 33:12 reads: “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he chose for his inheritance.”
Secretary of State Marco Rubio posted on X: “The joyous message of Christmas is the hope of Eternal Life through Christ. Wishing everyone a blessed holiday season filled with hope and peace.”

Rubio’s post included an illustration of the Nativity scene with the words of Isaiah 9:6 below.
In a separate post, the Department of State wrote: “Wishing the American people a joyous and peaceful Merry Christmas.”
“The Infinite has become an infant,” Housing and Urban Development Secretary Scott Turner wrote on X. “As we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, we are reminded to adopt the humility, love of neighbor, and servant leadership that Christ embodied.”
Likewise, the Department of Homeland Security’s X account posted a short video of some of America’s beautiful landscapes with the caption, “Rejoice America, Christ is born!”
The DHS posted another video with nostalgic Christmas footage accompanied by the caption: “Merry Christmas, America. We are blessed to share a nation and a Savior.”

His word and his example call us to love one another, to serve one another, and to honor the sacred truth that every child is specially made in the image of God. Merry Christmas!”
