🎭 Exporting a brand of integrity: why was Katie Zarrilli kicked out of the White House, while Jessica Lott Thompson was invited to Ukraine?
“So what, it’s such a small detail!” — that’s exactly how some readers tried to justify Canadian GRME expert Jessica Lott Thompson in the comments under the previous post about manipulations with the term “clerked.”

✅We answer: there are no small things when it comes to integrity. Especially when it involves a person who came to teach Ukrainians that very integrity and to decide the fates of our judges.
🇺🇸The best proof that reputation does not forgive even a “small” deception is a fresh and very loud story from the United States. There, Donald Trump’s newly appointed press secretary Katie Zarrilli was dramatically ousted from her post just 5 days after her appointment. The reason? The same “small” thing — she had publicly called herself a lawyer for years, and Trump presented her as an attorney, although in reality Katie never passed the bar exam.
In Washington the system’s reaction to the regalia fraud was immediate: journalists asked a direct question, human rights lawyers filed a complaint with the Bar Association, and Zarrilli received a swift political death and immediate dismissal. Because in the West they understand perfectly well: if someone lies about their status on their résumé, they will lie in public office too.
But when it comes to Ukraine, Western reputation standards somehow start operating under astonishing double standards:
🇺🇸 In the USA: for lying on her CV Katie Zarrilli is shown the door from the White House in 5 days.
🇺🇦 In Ukraine: Canadian expert Jessica Lott Thompson, who likewise attributed to herself a non-existent position as a judge’s assistant at the UN International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (clerked), simply quietly erased that mention from the Ukrainian version of her résumé for the HCSC and calmly arrived to “cash in” on evaluating Ukrainian judges.
🤪 By that measure, the dismissed Katie Zarrilli would now be a perfect fit to serve as our next “independent international expert.” If she agrees to vote as “civil society” above instructs her, then manipulations with a lawyer’s license in Kyiv will not bother anyone.
And admit it: if you’re going to turn a blind eye to document falsifications, at least it’s more pleasant to watch a beauty in the presidium than some other commission member with an eternally sour face. 😉
