She passed the most important test for this regime: the ability to brazenly lie to the public.

Pepperidge farm remembers Jill Biden EdD being disparaged for appropriately using the title doctor. Party of hypocrites every one.
She's a blond so trumps tiny little bar gets hard. And that's the only bar exam she had to pass.
The law says that misrepresenting yourself as one who practices or may practice law is the violation. It does not specify that you refer to yourself by any specific terms.
There is no legal distinction between "lawyer" or "attorney" in California law. And speaking from nearly 4 decades of being an American and native English speaker, there is no colloquial difference either. They are used interchangeablly.
Whatever lax meaning they are trying to project onto the term "lawyer" was made up wholecloth by them to obfuscate her (criminal) lie.
I know it's ridiculous, but you first need to define lawyer and attorney as representing ability to legally practice law. Then you can make falsely claiming this to be illegal. Without defining terms meant to define "represent practicing law," there's nothing to make illegal.
Hey, I don't think anyone in the Trump administration passes a bar without downing a few shots.
Edit: been thinking. I guess "passes a bar without examining it" would have worked even better.
What!? What about China? Didn't she pass it in China? Pretty sure she passed it in China!
Isn't it illegal to impersonate a lawyer?
I think the legality depends on what actions you take. If you just tell people that and don't provide legal services or advice, it's probably not illegal.
Well sweet! I'm gonna just add IAAL on my resume then!
It's definitely illegal. The issue is portraying yourself as an attorney for a benefit which in this case is a job. There's no way that claim has no factoring in her hiring and if it didn't it would imply bribery or nepotism.
But why would being a lawyer help get a job as a press secretary?
Most press secretaries have a field speciality that is helpful with that administration's plans and motivations. Levitt was a political journalist that went to school for it, huck sans was poly sci/mass comm.
And we don't know, finding out what would normally spark an investigation.
At least in CA, simply saying I am a a lawyer when one is not, is a crime, as reported in the guardian and or reuters recently.
The bar exam in Ghina is written in English. Who knew?
She called herself a lawyer, she is not. Repercussions please.
Edit: Ahhh ha ha ha, then she throws the president of her university under the bus
The new White House press secretary told the New York Times on Wednesday that when she first began appearing on cable news, she had asked Pepperdine how she should identify herself.
She said she was advised by the university president that she could call herself a lawyer, but not an attorney.
Her face bothers me. She sure overdid her fake tits too. The president sure has a type though, same type as rupert murdoch, unless you count all the men with fine buttocks in which case prez is a little different than rupert.
The more I see pictures of these people, the more I get the feeling that everything they do is cosplay some weird projection onto themselves.
The problem with a meritocracy is that you actually need merit.
What’s the over/under on her tenure vs the mooch?
Edit: she’s out. Half a mooch.
Drivers exam, dental exam, she even failed the little crayon maze on the kids menu at Denny's.
Those menus are designed by liberals. The crayons are in rainbow colors, forcing our kids to be trans.
If trump admin didn’t have liars, kooks and un qualified dummies there would be no one.
I’ve see 7/9 seasons of Matlock. Pretty sure I’m a lawyer. Not to mention Night Court.
So, does this mean most of the posters here are lawyers, by these extremely loose terms?
Everyone nice and distracted yet? This is the hand tote supposed to be focused on while the other is raping your future.
Donald Trump referred to Zacharia as an “attorney” in his Truth Social post announcing that he was tapping her
As far as I know, Wisconsin is the only state where you can be a lawyer without passing the bar due to "Diploma Privledge"
