On Tuesday, the White House hurriedly addressed questions concerning the legal qualifications of newly appointed press secretary Katie Zaccaria. Zaccaria made her debut in the briefing room that day, stumbling through a prepared statement before fielding only three questions from conservative media reporters. When subsequently pressed on the source of her legal credentials, she stated she had passed China’s bar examination; however, China does not permit non-citizens to practice law in its courts, and legal practice in the United States requires admission to a state or District of Columbia bar. On Friday, when announcing her appointment, Trump referred to Zaccaria as an "attorney." Her LinkedIn profile lists her former role as general counsel for Fix California, a nonprofit organization founded by Rick Grenell, a prominent adviser to Trump.
