Jimmy Kimmel joked that Kim Kardashian was 'technically more a lawyer' than White House press secretary Katie Zacharia during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in Los Angeles on Thursday. The exchange came as Kardashian discussed her progress towards becoming a lawyer in California, revealing that she had passed the preliminary 'baby bar' examination but had yet to pass the final bar exam.

The joke took on added significance when Zacharia reportedly left her newly appointed position on Friday, after just five days in the role. Questions about her legal qualifications had already attracted attention, giving Kimmel's comparison an additional edge. Kardashian, however, made clear that she had no interest in taking over the press secretary's job.
