Which brings us to Katie Zacharia, Trump’s replacement for his previous official liar, Karoline Leavitt. On Tuesday Zacharia made her premiere performance in the White House press room. And it was something less than adequate by historical standards, but precisely what one would expect from a Trump appointee.<\/p>\n
SEE THIS: Trump\u2019s Next Propaganda Secretary, Katie Zacharia, Has All the Non-Qualifications He Craves<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Zacharia’s debut in the White House press room (video below) featured her reading extraordinarily poorly from a prepared statement. Her presentation skills were surprisingly bad considering that she has had plenty of public speaking experience as a frequent guest on MAGA media such as Fox News and Newsmax. Yet she still managed to screw up like an amateur, and even violated the law.<\/p>\n In the course of her opening remarks, Zacharia gushed over how thrilled she was to be joining the Trump administration “as we are in the middle of a midterm blitz with energy and excitement never seen before in the history of midterms thanks to president Trump.”<\/em> So Zacharia is already parroting Trump’s speaking style with hyperbolic phrasing like “never seen before in history.”<\/em> But more to the point, her remarks on Trump’s “midterm blitz”<\/em> were brazenly political and a clear violation of the Hatch Act that prohibits partisan political activity by executive branch employees at the White House.<\/p>\n Of course, nothing will come of this since Trump’s Attorney Genuflect, Todd Blanche, is also a crooked Trumpist. Zacharia went on to lie shamelessly, saying that Trump’s recent cult rallies have had “record high”<\/em> attendance, and that the nation is enjoying a “booming economy.”<\/em> Both of which are flagrantly false.<\/p>\n Zacharia began her briefing by telling the gathered reporters that she is honored to be working for Trump, and that she has “wanted to work for him a very long time.”<\/em> She must have forgotten that she already worked briefly in the Trump administration as the primary spokeswoman for the Homeland Security Department. She was also the senior communications advisor at Trump’s failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n What’s more, Zacharia noted how honored she was to be working for Trump. Really? He is an alleged pedophile who is all over the Epstein files, that he refuses to release. And a convicted felon. And who has started unprovoked wars. And who cozies up to brutal dictators. And he is a racist, and a misogynist, and a pathological liar, and a malignant narcissist. What part of that makes Zacharia proud?<\/p>\n That introduction was followed by the question and answer period. It lasted a mere 14 minutes and included only three questions that she didn’t actually answer. The questions came entirely from right-wing “reporters”<\/em> from Fox News, Breitbart, and Daily Mail. So Zacharia seems to be fitting in well with the radical, right-wing, unqualified collection of Trump staffers that includes Pete Hegseth, Robert Kennedy Jr, Markwayne Mullin, and the rest.<\/p>\n However, even in that group Zacharia stands out for her incompetence. Let’s see how long she lasts.<\/p>\n
