Brian Edward Fallon Jr. (born c. 1982) is an American political activist. He was the national press secretary for Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign, a role he assumed in March 2015.

Career

Fallon graduated cum laude from Harvard,[2] where he covered sports for The Harvard Crimson.[2] During the 2004 presidential election, Fallon worked on the Kerry-Edwards presidential campaign as a press aide.[3] During the 2006 Senate election in New Jersey, Fallon served as campaign press secretary to Senator Robert Menendez. Fallon then became chief spokesman for Senator Charles Schumer of New York, and in 2011 additionally became spokesman for the new Senate Democratic Policy and Communications Center.[3] In 2013, Fallon left Schumer's office and moved to the Justice Department, with Attorney General Eric Holder hiring him as the department's director of public affairs.[3][4]

Fallon joined Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign in March 2015, as national press secretary.[3][5]

Fallon famously tweeted "Georgia is on our mind" in September, 2016 referring to the possibility of Clinton turning the Peach State blue. This prediction never materialized and Clinton went on to lose the Peach State by more than two hundred thousand votes to Donald Trump.[6]

In February 2017, he joined CNN as a political commentator, based in Washington, D.C.{{Citation needed|date=October 2018}}

In October 2017 he caused controversy by tweeting [General] "Kelly isnt just an enabler of Trump. He's a believer in him. That makes him as odious as the rest. Dont be distracted by the uniform."[7]

At its founding in May 2018, Fallon became executive director of Demand Justice, a 501(c)(4) advocacy organization.[8][9]

Personal life

Fallon is married to Katie Beirne Fallon, the former White House Director of Legislative Affairs and head of the White House Office of Legislative Affairs for the administration of U.S. President Barack Obama.[10][4][11][12]
