It's been an honor to serve. And to all those fighting for a better future, I’ll see you on the other side. Thanks. —@joshearnest
You are thorough, critical, and most importantly, you persevere. It’s made me a better Press Secretary, and a better public servant.
To the press corps, thanks for what you do. Your passion and dedication to your work is critical to the success of American democracy.
So it’s been a unique privilege and incredible honor to stand at the podium 345 times and represent a man I knew would change the world.
When you're @POTUS and known as one the most thoughtful and eloquent speakers of all time, it must be hard to watch someone speak for you.

Signing off from #AskPressSec for the final time. Thanks for your q's, your interest & your funny comments - even the ones at my expense!
C'mon! I dont want to ruin anyone's reputation - or do anyone that big of a favor! xitter.cf/bellasopinions/status/…
Would love to! I am fired up about the #Chiefs game on Sunday. If the defense can get some stops, I like their chances, esp at #Arrowhead. xitter.cf/bobfescoe/status/81968…
@PressSec now that u have some time come on my @610SportsKC and let's talk Royals and Chiefs!
1st time I stepped to the podium as @PressSec the briefing ended when someone fainted. Not exactly the auspicious beginning I hoped for! xitter.cf/BlayneBeal/status/8196…

What product(s) do you use in your hair? Not necessarily looking for brand names, just type of product. #POTUSinReview
Tues night farewell address in Chicago. Great speech. Great farewell. Great crowd - filled with people with whom I shared this journey. xitter.cf/SummerSharp/status/819…
Tragedy is frequently discussed in the WH briefing room. Part of the job. Every q abt the death of an American hostage was difficult. xitter.cf/robbiese7en/status/819…
.@ZachZaborny Loved celebrating w #Royals. The pic of Ned, @salvadorperez15 & @TheRealHos35 w/ me at the podium proudly hangs in my office.
The 11 countries who signed TPP with us. The Obama admin got a good deal for US workers but Congress never voted on it. #missedopportunity xitter.cf/kctww/status/819676618…
Yep. A pleasure to have a front row seat as @POTUS awarded @VPOTUS the Medal of Freedom. Moving to see his reaction to the surprise up close xitter.cf/DeCample/status/819676…
.@BBolen07331514 CJ was better - but she also had a team of writers! Meeting her at the WH was def a White House highlight.
