What happened

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt briefed members of the media at the White House on Jan. 31, 2025, carried on the White House channel - her second briefing of the term, following her Jan. 28 debut paged separately in this series.

This page embeds the White House broadcast of record for the Jan. 31 briefing. The transcript feed for this upload returns the captions of the Jan. 28 briefing (verified this run), so no quotations are taken from it here; the page is grounded in the broadcast’s own metadata. The Jan. 28 briefing page in this series carries that earlier briefing’s record in full.

Why it matters

The Jan. 31 briefing is the second entry in the Press Secretary’s briefing record this chronicle keeps session by session - the podium’s cadence in the term’s second week, preserved here as the broadcast of record.
