There’s a new Press Secretary in the White House …but it’s not that easy to tell – 18 favourite reactions to the koincidences
Former White House intern and legal advisor to Trump Media, Katie Zacharia, has been announced as the successor to the outgoing White House Press Secretary, Karoline Leavitt.
She seems thrilled – or, to put it another way, lost in a rabbit hole of sycophancy.
Thank you to President Trump for the distinguished privilege of serving as White House Press Secretary.
Serving President Trump and the American people at this critical 250-year mark is the honor of a lifetime. President Trump has shown America that we can be great again, and he works to effectuate that greatness every single day. His confidence is a true privilege, and his leadership is a blessing to this country.
The work ahead is to continue delivering strong results for our Country and communicating to the American people the major wins that this Administration is making every single day. I look forward to working with the White House press corps, and with reporters across the country, to get that record out. Following the fabulous Karoline Leavitt is a high standard, and one worth meeting.
God bless President Trump, and God bless America.

Her now-deleted public comments point towards her being a highly uncharitable conspiracy theorist. She’ll fit right in.

Donald Trump is clearly a fan. Perhaps a little too much of a fan.
Trump talks about how he has watched New Press Secretary Katie Zacharia for some time now.
"I’ve watched her a lot on television" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 https://t.co/bwVgORg0Vp

She’s off to a promising start, with some prime, unhinged disinformation.

Today’s episode of Uncanny Valley is brought to you by the letter K, and the chemical peroxide.
While Kellyanne Conway was a White House counsellor, rather than the Press Secretary, the koincidence raised eyebrows, and thoughts.
Here’s what tweeters had to say about all that.
