President Joe Biden will be staring down a brand new face at Fox News.
And her name is Jacqui Heinrich.
The cable news king announced that she will be the next White House correspondent covering the Oval Office, according to The Hill reporting.
And she says the new position is fulfilling a lifelong dream.
The former congressional correspondent is going from Capitol Hill to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
“I am honored to have the opportunity to report on the highest levels of the United States government for our audience and look forward to working closely with our incredibly talented team,” she said.
Heinrich took to Twitter to share the appointment with Fox News viewers:
“Honored to have this privilege and eager to carry out my duty of fair, tough, and honest reporting,” she wrote. “See you soon, from the White House!”

Based on The Hill reporting, she’ll join Peter Doocy — who has quickly made a name for himself with his noted battles involving White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki. Heinrich, who says she’s promising tough reporting, will likely look to continue aggressive reporting of the Biden administration.
But there’s more.
Fox News’ Aishah Hasnie will be tapped to replace Heinrich in her former role as a congressional correspondent.
Fox News President Jay Wallace made note of the big moves, saying “we look forward to adding Jacqui to our outstanding White House team alongside Peter Doocy and are pleased to welcome Aishah and Alex to our exceptional Washington bureau.”
