President Donald Trump’s new assistant press secretary — a former reporter for Real America's Voice — once posed for a photo with a rifle while wearing a "f Joe Biden" T-shirt and was a fan of slain conservative influencer Charlie Kirk.
24岁的贝尼·雷·哈莫尼于周五宣布，她将加入特朗普的白宫新闻团队，担任新任副新闻秘书。据《每日野兽》报道，Instagram上的反MAGA（让美国再次伟大）账号迅速找到了哈莫尼身穿反拜登T恤的照片。
Beni Rae Harmony, 24, announced on Friday that she will join Trump's White House press team as the new assistant press secretary. Anti-MAGA accounts on Instagram quickly found the photo of Harmony in her anti-Biden shirt, according to The Daily Beast.
这张照片由前共和党弗吉尼亚州国会候选人贾罗姆·贝尔于2021年发布。该帖子的配文写道：“我的竞选公共事务总监@beniraeharmony 是个狠角色。这就是我们的风格。”哈莫尼的Instagram账号点赞了该帖子。贝尔曾在2022年竞选弗吉尼亚海滩的国会席位。
The photo was posted by former Republican Virginia congressional candidate Jarome Bell in 2021. The post includes the caption "My campaign Public Affairs Director @beniraeharmony is a beast. This is how we roll." Harmony's Instagram account liked the post. Bell ran for Congress in 2022 in Virginia Beach.
哈莫尼将在白宫新闻团队经历人事变动后加入该团队，此次变动包括前新闻秘书卡罗琳·莱维特于八月的离职。
Harmony will join the White House's communications team following a staff shakeup that included the departure of former Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt in August.
哈莫尼在宣布其受聘的帖子中写道：“作为‘真实美国之声’的高级白宫记者，能够报道、随行并覆盖这一历史性政府，是我的荣幸。我的目标始终是提出对真实美国人重要的问题，并确保他们的声音被听到。”“我衷心感谢特朗普总统给予我这次机会以及他的信任。”哈莫尼曾为极右翼广播机构“真实美国之声”工作，该机构始终播出史蒂夫·班农的平日节目《查理·柯克秀》以及泰德·纽根特的《精神篝火》。
"It's been an honor to report, travel, and cover this historic administration as Senior White House Correspondent for Real America's Voice. My goal has always been to ask questions that matter to real Americans and make sure their voices are heard," Harmony wrote in a post announcing her hiring. "I'm incredibly grateful to President Trump for this opportunity and his trust." Harmony formerly worked for the far-right broadcaster Real America's Voice, which always airs Steve Bannon's weekday show, The Charlie Kirk Show, and Ted Nugent's Spirit Campfire.
她说，自己在被前雇主——位于伊利诺伊州斯普林菲尔德的WICS-ABC20电视台停职后，加入了这家广播机构。据称，她被停职的原因是在2025年柯克遇刺后，未经事先安排便在节目中向他致敬。
She said she joined the broadcaster after she was suspended from her previous place of employment, WICS-ABC20 in Springfield, Illinois, allegedly for sharing an unprompted on-air tribute to Kirk following his 2025 assassination.
哈莫尼为播出纪念节目这一决定进行了辩护，称此举“非党派性”。
Harmony defended her decision to air the memorial, calling it "non-partisan."
她曾在2020年和2021年于柯克创立的保守派青年组织“转折点美国”工作。哈莫尼表示，她将柯克视为一位“导师”。她的领英个人资料显示，她还曾在亚利桑那州共和党国会议员保罗·戈萨尔和佛罗里达州前国会议员马特·盖茨处实习。
She previously worked at Kirk's Turning Point USA conservative youth organization in 2020 and 2021. Harmony said she considered Kirk a "mentor." Her LinkedIn profile says she also interned for Arizona Republican Congressman Paul Gosar and former Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz.
哈莫尼或许是在上个月访问爱尔兰期间引起了特朗普的注意，当时她作为记者随同“空军一号”一同前往。
Harmony may have caught Trump's eye during a trip to Ireland last month, where she was present as a reporter on Air Force One.
白宫首席副新闻秘书安娜·凯利在一份声明中证实了哈莫尼的新职位。
Anna Kelly, the White House principal deputy press secretary, confirmed Harmony's new role in a statement.
凯利表示：“贝尼·雷·哈莫尼作为白宫记者，一直是‘让美国再次伟大’运动值得信赖的声音。她作为助理新闻秘书，将成为特朗普总统传播团队的杰出成员。我们期待她的加入。”
“Beni Rae Harmony has been a trusted voice for the MAGA movement as a White House correspondent,” Kelly said. “She will be an outstanding addition to President Trump’s communications team as an assistant press secretary. We look forward to having her on board.”
