AG Blanche wrapped his Rose Garden briefing with a pointed moment: he praised Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt for handling the press corps, then cut off questions entirely.
"The fact that Karoline Leavitt did this for as long as she did is INCREDIBLE. She's a LOT better than me," Blanche said as reporters shouted follow-ups.
He ended it bluntly: "I'm done with questions."
The exchange highlights the tension between the administration and White House reporters—and Blanche's clear preference for staying out of the briefing room.
