She posted nine pictures on Instagram that captured the fast-paced life of running press briefings and attending all of the White House’s most important events.
The first adorable image shows the youngest press secretary in history holding her baby Niko, whom she shares with her husband Nicholas Riccio, as they stand just feet away from Tr-u-mp.
Leavitt had little Niko in July of last year. She had taken ten days off working on Tr-u-mp’s campaign when the president was shot by would-be assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks.
After hearing this news, Leavitt requested to come back to work immediately and hasn’t taken a breath since.
The press secretary has worked closely with other big Washington DC players like Elon Musk, whom she was seen smiling alongside in one of the Instagram pictures.
In another snapshot, Leavitt strutted through the White House with Steven Cheung, who works as the communications director for the executive office.
But despite rubbing shoulders with some of the most powerful movers and shakers in the country, Leavitt made it clear that spending time with her baby boy remains her most important task.
“The first 100 days: mom & press sec edition,” she captioned the post.
Fans of the rising political star gushed over the commemorative post and said she represents a “pro-life and pro-women” administration.
“And to do what you are doing at your age so eloquently. Such a role model for all women and young girls,” wrote one fan.
Another said, “You’re a legend. All of you.”
“You’re spectacular! And you’re just getting started! The best is yet to come,” wrote a follower.
“You’re a rock star greatest press secretary ever! Keep up the great work,” said another excited fan.”
‘BEST IN HISTORY’
Tr-u-mp held a rally in Michigan to commemorate his first 100 days, and was celebrated by fans for trolling a Democratic rival.
After he started speaking to the crowd, he noticed that Governor Gretchen Whitmer was in the audience, and asked her to join him on the stage.
The two then awkwardly shook hands, and Tr-u-mp asked Whitmer to speak, which she admitted she hadn’t prepared for.
Despite their past tension, Tr-u-mp congratulated her for her role in saving the Selfridge Air National Guard Base – a facility that had faced potential shutdown.
Speaking to the roaring crowd, the president boldly claimed that his administration had brought the greatest first 100 days in history.
“This is the best, they say, 100-day start of any president in history, and everyone is saying it,” he told rallygoers.
“We’ve just gotten started. You haven’t even seen anything yet.”
