#shorts On 11/18/2022, during press briefing, a reporter asked White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “Thanks. Just first, really quick, following up on what you said about the special counsel. Even if the President wasn’t aware ahead of time, I’m sure he is aware now. Can you provide any details about who informed him today, when he learned of the news, how he learned of the news today?”

MS. Jean-Pierre: Again, I’m just not going to go beyond. I know you’re asking me about the President specifically. I’ve not spoken to him before coming — before coming out here, so I can’t give you details on that. I’m assuming it was — it was a — you know, a senior member of his staff who would most likely have let him know about — about the special counsel.

reporter: Can you help us understand why the briefing was delayed?

MS. JEAN-PIERRE: Absolutely. It’s just been — it’s just been a long week. There was a lot — there’s a lot to cover, as I know you all have a lot of topics. And it just took a little bit of time to get us out here tonight, this — well, it’s almost tonight — this afternoon — (laughs) — as the sun is probably setting at this time. But no big reason. Just — there’s just a lot going on today.
