Summary
Katie Zacharia, succeeding Karoline Leavitt as White House press secretary, held her first briefing Tuesday, lasting under 15 minutes and taking questions from three conservative-outlet reporters. Later, on the South Lawn before departing for Alaska with Trump, she was asked where she passed the bar exam and said she did so after moving to China. Trump has called her an attorney, but her bar credentials remain unclear.
