When speaking to reporters on Thursday, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said the outgoing administration is going to focus on keeping the government open and hurricane relief among other issues.
She also insisted that the administration is going to keep working on ending the war in Gaza, securing the release of the hostages and work on a resolution to the situation in Lebanon.

Jean-Pierre’s remarks come amid infighting with the Democrat party over the election loss, with some Harris allies placing blame on the president.
