Harp’s path to influence began in 2019 when she appeared on Fox News and credited then-president Trump with saving her life. She said she had bone cancer, and that Trump’s Right to Try law gave her access to experimental treatments. After the appearance, she was hired as a One American News Network anchor and later by the Trump 2024 campaign.

“You are all that matters to me,” Harp wrote in one of the letters, which were seen by The Times, who also confirmed their authenticity. “I don’t ever want to let you down,” read another, which also thanked Trump for being her “Guardian and Protector in this Life.”
