USA: Trump-Regierung verteidigt neue 24-jährige Pressesprecherin gegen Kritik
Beni Rae Harmony ist neue Presseassistentin im Weißen Haus. Wer ist die Frau, die sich einst mit einem „Fuck Joe Biden“-Shirt und Gewehr ablichten ließ?
Düsseldorf - The departure of former White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has left a void in defending President Donald Trump's policies to the press. Vice President J.D. Vance and officials have been taking turns answering journalists' questions in the press room at the White House. However, with the appointment of Beni Rae Harmony, Trump now has a new alternate spokesperson.
The 24-year-old announced on Friday that she will be working for the White House from now on. She is familiar with the President's work - most recently she worked as a reporter for the pro-Trump right-wing medium "Real America's Voice". The portal also publishes Trump's former advisor's show, "War Room". Harmony recently traveled with Trump to Ireland and was in the front row alongside other media representatives as the US President answered questions from his aircraft - asking him kindly-worded questions.
She thus belongs to a growing group of Trump-affiliated media representatives who are steadily gaining more room in the US government. Journalists from CNN, Politico and MSN have recently had to fight legal battles to gain access to the White House.
