President Donald Trump gives holiday gifts to several White House aides, according to new financial disclosures. The largest is a $45,000 payment to executive assistant Natalie Harp. Other recipients also receive holiday gifts, including communications adviser Margo Martin and deputy director of Oval Office operations Chamberlain Harris, both reported at $45,000.
The disclosures also report a $20,000 gift to Walt Nauta, director of Oval Office operations. Multiple outlets cite the administration’s financial filings as the source of the figures and note that Harp’s role has come further into public view in recent weeks. Coverage differs mainly in emphasis: some focus on the total number of aides and amounts, while others foreground Harp specifically. The reports do not present additional details about the purpose of the gifts beyond their characterization as holiday gifts in the disclosed paperwork.
