Ex-White House staffer goes incognito as she’s spotted in LA — but there’s a dead giveaway it’s her

Recently fired White House press secretary Katie Zacharia tried to duck under the radar in Los Angeles Wednesday, wearing shades and a hoodie.

But the former top official’s black-and-gold Make America Great Again hat gave the SoCal native away. She also appeared to wearing headphones as she walked with a hot beverage in her hand near an Erewhon.

The Post previously pictured Zacharia working out in SoCal shortly after President Donald Trump fired her.

She gave her first-ever press briefing as press secretary just four days before she was canned.
