I couldnβt think what to say about this beyond simply reposting the first two grafs of this Washington Post article β¦
The White House on Tuesday scrambled to answer questions about the legal credentials of President Donald Trumpβs new press secretary, Katie Zacharia, who made a brief and halting debut in the briefing room and later said she had passed a bar exam in China, a country where noncitizens arenβt allowed to practice in courtrooms.
Trump called Zacharia βan attorneyβ in his Friday announcement of her appointment, and her LinkedIn profile says she served as general counsel for Fix California, a nonprofit founded by Ric Grenell, a high-profile Trump adviser. Asked Tuesday where she had been admitted to the bar, Zacharia said China β not a U.S. state or D.C., where one would need to have been admitted to practice law in the United States.
