Alex Wong / Getty Images President Donald Trump’s freshly minted White House press secretary was spotted beaming beside his ever-present aide in a photo from their trip to Alaska.
Katie Zacharia, 41, and Natalie Harp, 35, sat side by side in close proximity to their 80-year-old boss aboard Marine One as they prepared to fly from Elmendorf Air Force Base in Anchorage to Wasilla, Alaska, on Tuesday.
The president’s two blonde subordinates looked eager to speak with him as they huddled inside the aircraft’s cabin, as seen in photos captured by Getty Images photographers Alex Wong and Kent Nishimura.
Trump’s entourage accompanied him on the eight-hour journey to his campaign rally for Alaska Sen.
Dan Sullivan on Tuesday.
They were also pictured together on the tarmac at Joint Base Andrews Tuesday beside White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, with Zacharia in a muted blue blazer and Harp in a floral blue dress.
During the Wasilla rally, Trump pardoned Zachary Czuback and Patrick Fleming, co-owners of a vehicle repair shop in Anchorage, who pleaded guilty in 2022 to violating the Clean Air Act.
The two admitted to removing federally mandated emissions-control equipment and tampering with monitoring devices on nearly 40 diesel vehicles between July 2019 and September 2020.
Trump called for Harp to “bring me the pardons!” to which she quickly carried them onstage and handed them to him.
Harp earned the nickname “human printer” for her rapid fulfillment of Trump’s every request, from fetching merchandise, performing Google searches, printing stories from right-wing news sites, and suggesting and typing up his Truth Social posts.
As the president’s special and executive assistant, she earns a taxpayer-funded salary of $150,000 a year.
Zacharia, a former conservative commentator who appeared frequently on Fox and Newsmax, made her White House debut earlier on Tuesday, hosting an awkward 14-minute press briefing that drew criticism from both sides of the aisle.
“I want to thank President Trump for his trust that he has placed in me.
I have wanted to work with him for a very long time,” she told reporters.
