Trump praised Leavitt following her departure, emphasizing her service to the administration and the close professional relationship they had developed. Although she stepped away from her official White House position, she remained connected to Republican political circles and continued to be viewed as an influential conservative communications figure.

The arrangement is scheduled to begin November 1 and will allow her to provide political commentary and analysis across the company's television and media platforms.
