Energy Secretary Chris Wright was photographed clutching a printout of the Wikipedia page for Nobel Prize winner Navanethem ‘Navi’ Pillay as the group made their way back to the White House on Friday.

Wright, 61, was handed the printout about the South African human rights advocate by Harp, who was photographed walking alongside him as they headed back to the White House after a rally in upstate New York. The Daily Beast reported that just 10 minutes before the photo was captured, Trump posted on his Truth Social account to criticize the Nobel committee and reiterate his claim that he deserved the award.

“This is the woman who received the Nobel Peace Prize over the Great United States of America, whose Representative, ME, settled eight Wars, and many other things,” wrote Trump. “I know nothing about this woman, and neither does anyone else! In fact, to the best of my knowledge, no one ever heard of her other than the fact that she, very obviously, hates Israel.”

“I don’t know what the woman has done,” Trump added. “I settled 8 Wars, with letters being sent from every President and Prime Minister from the countries that I helped to the Norwegian Nobel Committee, and I’m about to settle, or win, two more, Iran and Russia/Ukraine.”

The president, 80, also stated that events were “happening at breakneck speed,” reports the Mirror US. He added, “But, forget them, it’s the 8 that I’ve already settled, any one of which, in particular, Pakistan and India, would be far more than necessary to win the Nobel Prize.”In actuality, I should have won 8 Nobel Peace Prizes, not just 1,” the president continued, proceeding to reel off the conflicts he claims to have brought to an end. Trump also boasted about preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon and “blowing up the entire Middle East.”According to the president, his failure to be selected for the prestigious prize represents “an indelible stain on Norway, one that will never be forgotten.” He concluded, “The Nobel’ Peace’ Prize has been forever discredited by a handful of Radical Ideologues who are Anti-Democracy, and Enemies of Civilization!”

It remains unclear why Wright was handed Pillay’s dossier, or whether he played any role in helping the president craft his post. Trump has long been obsessed with securing a prize of his own, despite having been presented with a non-transferrable medal by Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado during her White House visit in January.

Adding further fuel to the fire, this year’s actual winner appears unlikely to stroke the president’s ego, having seemingly taken a swipe at Trump upon learning of her victory. “If you clap a little bit more, I might share this prize with Trump,” a video of Pillay said.

Harp was photographed getting cozy with President Donald Trump in her customary position beside him on Marine One after showing off her legs. On Friday, the 35-year-old showed off her long legs in a short black dress, which she teamed with nude pumps, a sophisticated updo, and a full face of makeup, while toting a large black bag as she climbed aboard Marine One with other officials ahead of their departure for Syracuse, New York.

Later, following Trump’s 15-minute rant at the event, Harp was captured through the aircraft’s window, seated beside the 80-year-old Commander-in-Chief, a position typically occupied by the “Human Printer” so she can supply him with a “healthy supply of positive news.”

Harp’s appearance alongside Trump on Friday follows reports of “competition” with Katie Zacharia, a former communications adviser for the president’s social media platform, Truth Social, who has taken over Karoline Leavitt’s position as White House press secretary.
