She lasted one week, Friday to Friday, October 9–16.
"...today, Reuters reported that Kalshi is investigating suspicious trades having to do with Trump’s selection of Katie Zacharia as the new White House press secretary."
Heather Cox Richardson, Oct 9, 2026
"Katie Zacharia, who was appointed White House press secretary by President Trump on Friday, repeatedly promoted the debunked Pizzagate conspiracy on social media, accusing elites from the Democratic Party and Hollywood of sexually trafficking children and eating people.
— Judd Legum, New White House press secretary is a Pizzagate conspiracy theorist, Popular Information, Oct 11, 2026
"Trump’s choice of Katie Zacharia on Friday to become the new White House press secretary illustrates that the administration is fully committed to pushing its dominance through disinformation. As Judd Legum explained yesterday in Popular Information, Zacharia is a conspiracy theorist who pushed the “Pizzagate” conspiracy, the lie popular in 2016 that leading Democrats and Hollywood figures were sexually trafficking children and engaging in cannibalism in an organization run out of a Washington, D.C., pizza restaurant.
As Legum notes, Zacharia was relatively obscure before Trump tapped her. Her major qualification is that she posts a lot on Trump’s social media site and has worked as a senior communications advisor for the site."
— Heather Cox Richardson, Oct 12, 2026
"When President Trump plucked Katie Zacharia from obscurity and appointed her as his new press secretary, he called her “an attorney.”
This is also how Zacharia, repeatedly and publicly, describes herself.
* * *
A lawyer, by definition, is “an individual who is authorized to practice law.” Merely holding a J.D. degree, as Zacharia does, does not authorize her to practice law. To become a lawyer, she would need to be admitted to a bar, which in most cases involves passing a bar exam."
— Judd Legum, Trump’s new press secretary, Katie Zacharia, claims she’s a lawyer. Is she? There is no evidence Zacharia has ever been licensed to practice law — and the White House did not provide any. Popular Information, Oct 13, 2026
"...despite the school's 86.8% first-time bar passage rate, Zacharia failed the exam in 2011."
(New White House Press Secretary Reportedly Took The Bar Exam – And Failed)
"...Zacharia said she misheard a question about whether she passed the bar exam amid confusion over her qualifications....“I assumed the question was, ‘Where were you after law school?’” she reportedly told the newspaper." (Katie Zacharia Says She Misheard Bar Exam Question)

‘She Can Barely Read’: New Trump Press Secretary Katie Zacharia Faceplants in First Briefing “She needs to get much better, fast, otherwise she’ll break Scaramucci’s record,” said one unnamed White House official. Brad Reed, Common Dreams, Oct 13, 2026
Scoop from @timmarchman.bsky.social & I: New WH press secretary Katie Zacharia never passed the bar, despite calling herself an attorney. She was, however, once part of a multi-level-marketing fitness program that she described to us as "sort of a pyramid scheme" www.wired.com/story/white-...
