White House defends new press secretary Katie Zacharia
The White House is strongly defending newly appointed Press Secretary Katie Zacharia following intense scrutiny over her legal credentials. Critics and watchdog groups have raised questions after it was revealed she is not registered to the bar in any US state. While President Donald Trump initially described Zacharia as an attorney, reports indicate she failed the California bar exam and practiced in China, where foreign nationals cannot hold local legal licenses. A watchdog group has since filed a complaint seeking an official investigation.
