The rules introduce notable confusion by explicitly framing resolution around who replaces 'Katie Zacharia', which is an apparent factual error or placeholder that creates ambiguity about what triggers resolution. However, the core qualifying criteria are otherwise structured: resolution hinges on the next official announcement from Donald Trump or the White House naming a non-acting press secretary before the December 31, 2027 deadline. Secondary reliance on a consensus of credible reporting adds minor source discretion, and acting or interim appointments are expressly excluded. Position holders should be aware of the mismatched name condition and the rule locking in resolution on the initial announcement regardless of later withdrawals.
