Karine Jean-Pierre’s new memoir pulls back the curtain on the chaos inside Bidenworld and lands like a confession booth for a party that has lost its bearings. In a blistering excerpt she says the Democratic Party’s treatment of President Biden when he stepped away from the 2024 race was “horrible,” a raw admission that confirms what many Americans already suspected about the rotten calculus inside the left’s leadership class.
The timing is telling: Jean-Pierre announced she had left the Democratic Party in June 2025 and her book, Independent, is being released this month as the political establishment sputters for spin. Her move from one of the party’s most visible mouthpieces to self-declared independent should ring alarm bells for voters who have been told to trust the same institutions that now throw their own under the bus.
Jean-Pierre does not mince words about how colleagues reacted in the final weeks before Biden’s decision, describing what reads like an internal “firing squad” that pushed a once-respected elder statesman out of the contest. If true, it is a damning portrait of a party more interested in preservation and power plays than in loyalty, decency, or honest leadership.
Unsurprisingly, her revelations have been met with fury inside Democratic circles, where former colleagues have shrugged, called the book grifty, and accused her of opportunism for cashing in on intra-party turmoil. The sour reaction from the left’s own operatives only reinforces the public perception that the Democratic establishment is a defensive, elite cartel eager to rewrite the truth to suit its survival.
Conservative Americans should take this for what it is: evidence that the party promising accountability from the other side is rotten at its core. Jean-Pierre spent years defending that administration from the podium even as questions swirled about competence and messaging, and now her about-face exposes the hypocrisy of a political class that expects blind loyalty while dispensing betrayal whenever convenient.
Even media moments on mainstream outlets are starting to show cracks, with commentators and even rival political hopefuls seizing on Jean-Pierre’s admissions as proof the Democrats cannot police their own. Fox’s America Reports highlighted local voices and challengers who see this book as another chapter in the collapse of the old party machinery, and that moment should remind patriotic Americans that allegiance to country must come before loyalty to any broken party.
This isn’t about celebrating infighting; it’s about finally recognizing the need for real accountability and common-sense leadership. If Jean-Pierre’s painful admission moves even a handful of voters to stop accepting the same tired lies and to demand better, then her book will have done more for American democracy than another decade of hollow party talking points ever did.
