Ever since 2017, Washington has used a new unit of time: a Scaramucci. It refers to the 11-day period that Anthony Scaramucci served as a communications director in the first Trump administration. This week, the president’s newest press secretary, Katie Zacharia, lasted just half a Scaramucci. From one short-lived administration official to another, he offered a message.
“Speaking as the world’s leading expert on short White House tenures: turn off the news and go enjoy your family,” Scaramucci posted to X, tagging Zacharia’s account. “In time you’ll realize that the Universe did you a major favor.”

And with just over two weeks until the midterm elections, the president is yet again on the hunt for a top messenger for his record, which he’s banking on to secure GOP wins.
In an interview with Real America’s Voice, Zacharia recapped her mayhem weekend and the unofficial audition process. A spokeswoman for the Trump Media & Technology Group, Zacharia has also long been a conservative legal commentator on Newsmax and Fox. In Thursday’s interview, she told RAV that she began tailoring her hits to address what Trump was posting, knowing he would likely be watching the clips.
“My philosophy is I’m on TV enough where if he sees me and he likes me, then I will be recruited for the job,” Zacharia said in the interview. “I wanted to work for it ... I tracked every news hit to be in accordance with what policies he was pushing forward, particularly on Truth........
