The newly-appointed White House press secretary broke through North Korean security on June 30, making way for American media to cover a meeting between President Donald Trump and North Korean Leader Kim Jong Un.

Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham got hands-on with security about an hour after Trump stepped onto North Korean territory and shook hands with Kim: a gesture South Korean President Moon Jae-in called “truly historic.”
