The new White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, is facing mounting questions regarding her professional background and claims of being a lawyer. Reports indicate that no public records confirm she has passed the bar exam in any U.S. state, despite frequently using the title in past media appearances. The controversy intensified following her recent press briefings. When asked about her qualifications, the White House directed inquiries to a statement where Leavitt asserted she practiced international transactional law with appropriate credentials, yet provided no verifying evidence. Leavitt holds a law degree from Pepperdine Caruso Law School, earned in 2011, but the lack of an official professional license remains a point of contention.
