I joke — although that’s redundant in this case — but as a former Federal Government spokesperson, I can tell you credibility is paramount. However, in this administration, that’s no longer true.
“...Credibility is paramout.” You should head over to “Truth” Social. Credibility is NOT what they want.
"If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."
The WH insiders who worked to bring in Zacharia, either:
a) Were too lazy to properly check out her work history and credentials.
or
b) *Knew* she was illegally representing herself as a lawyer--instead of as just a law school grad--but were too scared to give Trump the bad news. Because the Grifter-in-Chief was already smitten with Zacharia's looks.
It's not funny, but it is, being so typical of the inept, unqualified and incompetent regime, and so sad this is the new normal since the beginning of the second term with the most ignorant and unqualified of them all. Thanks for being the one to point out this latest stupidity. Thanks also for your dogged pursuit of the truth, exposing the lies and corruption of the current regime.
Seems that Trump replaced a pretty good blonde spokesliar with a total fraud who may be blonde but has little or no ability to lie effectively. She can't lie for him if she can't really believably lie about her own background. I for one am all in on the speculation that she doesn't even last one Scaramucci, certainly not one Liz Truss in the position.
You cannot make this shit up! I would say it’s unbelievable, but….it’s very believable that this clown show has someone posing as a lawyer and they are blind to it!
While I agree that incompetent is the new normal, the fact that the press chooses the young blonde woman to attack, while the rest of this Administration grinds our Constitution to a pulp in plain site, is still part of the problem.
She's 41. Old enough to know right from wrong. She has built her "career" telling harmful lies. She is a fair target for criticism. She's probably not really blonde, either, come to that. But yes, there are plenty of other horrors we must not lose track of.
Everybody has different buttons that get pushed, but lying about credentials pushes mine.
I worked in Hospitals&Healthcare for 50yrs. Doctors, Nurses, other healthcare professionals must post their diplomas, boards exams, certifications. Everything is checked.
It took me awhile to complete college, so my education means a lot to me.
I guess if I were thinner, blonder, with zero morals, I could have chosen something else&just lied.
I'm only guessing here, but when the FBI is run by an incompetent drunken idiot working for an incompetent, completely corrupt POTUS, I'd have to say regarding that security clearance issue as perhaps being of any import or consequence... well... maaaaybe not?
Great reporting! Another thing I’ve been wondering about— how much are all these incompetent Trumpites getting paid and how does it compare to people working in previous administrations? Do the ones who leave get any severance or other extra compensation? Trump and his team are robbing the taxpayers in many ways — how do their salaries and perks compare?
RE: New Trump Press Secretary Katie Zacharia's "credentials"
(Spoken in the voice of Claude Rains): I'm shocked to find bald-faced lying going on here.
By now there's really no need for such pretense. The only credentials Ms. Zacharia has that actually count have nothing to do with lawyering. Or anything else for that matter, other than the laws of attraction of lecherous old men to attractive young women who are only too happy to smile fetchingly at both them and the TV cameras.
Lawyer…? Oh, I thought you said liar. Yes, she is.

Where’s a head of lettuce?
Too expensive now to waste on her! 🥬💙
I think Taylor Farms has a few they can toss in for the task!
The lettuce won!
But, she’s blonde and pretty….
May not be enough to save her if she can't carry off the lies well enough.
In this “fake it til you make it” administration, I believe in this case the bottom of the barrel may have finally been reached.
But can she even fake it?
Meh. She's a plastic kind of pretty, like a Barbie.
Karoline would eat her for a snack

My 5 year old knew not to lie or make up things. This woman, at 41, is far into the criminal lying arena.
You are so right. Throw out some red meat and let the lions devour her whilst Russell Vought lines up the masked men at the polls.
Popular Information, getting it done once again!
If yesterday’s performance is any indication she can’t even spell lawyer.

Keep pumping out the facts!!! They make a difference.
Does the Press Secretary have to receive a security clearance from the FBI? Just asking … this issue would appear to bounce her, right?

Thanks, once again, to Judd and his team, for doing real reporting. Investigating!
“If your mother says she loves you, check it out.”
When the cashier gives me change back I count it and tell her, if my grandmother gave me change, I'd count it.
Just another lying liar lying for the lyingist liar of all time.

Great work getting so much of the media to focus on something they would have ignored otherwise.

It's time for the "Head of lettuce or Katie Zacharia" contest.
Great reporting PI!!!
I see others beat me to the thought....Great minds think alike...
The lettuce won!
Will she or a Liz Truss-like head of lettuce last longer?
The lettuce won!
