BREAKING: Trump may have accidentally chosen the wrong Dana White for his White House Press Secretary offer.
There is a woman named "Dana White" who is the former Assistant to the Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs, more commonly known as the Pentagon's chief spokesperson, from April 2017 to the end of 2018.
She briefed the press from the Pentagon podium, and served as the principal media adviser and communications lead for the Secretary of Defense. She also was a Fox News publicist and worked at the conservative Heritage Foundation. She even started her career as a press secretary for the House Republican Conference.
Someone at the White House likely recommended her to Trump and he thought they meant UFC CEO Dana White, then went ahead and announced it on Truth Social thinking it's his UFC friend, and nobody around him was willing to correct him.
Furthermore, Trump is actively searching for a new press secretary after Karoline Leavitt left and Katie Zacharia lasted five days, so names are being pitched to him right now.
Per CNN, UFC's Dana White has declined the offer, and one aide now claims Trump was "joking."

Most crypto hacks come down to one thing: someone gets the private keys.
@GoogleCloud's @RichJWidmann says Google’s new system never keeps the full key in one place, so there’s nothing whole to steal. “That’s really the magic of it.”
Today I spoke with @CoinDesk about the Binance hack and the threats posed by quantum and AI as it relates to our recently launched MPC custody product.
@googlecloud's MPC is built on battle-tested primitives that have withstood (and can withstand) the test of time.
@joeblau The demo isn’t even very good. It’s easy to get part of the way there but you’d never use a product that was wrong 20% of the time. Frankly even 5% is too much unless it’s super easy to correct.
