Walt Nauta
Waltine Torre Nauta Jr. (born 1982 or 1983) is an American aide to U.S. president Donald Trump.
While a petty officer in the U.S. Navy, Nauta was Trump's valet at the White House. After Trump's term ended, Nauta continued to work for him at Trump's Mar-a-Lago club and residence.
In June 2023, Trump and Nauta were indicted by a federal grand jury in a criminal case over violations of the Espionage Act and related offenses. Nauta was charged with six counts of federal crimes and pleaded not guilty. On July 27, two new counts of obstruction were brought against Nauta.
The original six charges against Nauta relate to allegations that he, acting at Trump's direction, moved boxes that included illegally retained classified documents and national defense-related documents to Trump's residence, and then lied about it to federal investigators. He was indicted for conspiracy to obstruct justice, withholding a document or record, corruptly concealing a document or record, corruptly concealing a document in a federal investigation, scheme to conceal, and making false statements and representations.
In February 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit dismissed the case against Nauta upon the federal prosecutor's request.
Nauta was born in Hågat, Guam, and grew up there with five siblings. He graduated from Southern High School in nearby Sånta Rita-Sumai.
Nauta enlisted in the U.S. Navy in July 2001. He was a cook, with the rating of culinary specialist. Among his Navy postings were stints with a strike fighter squadron in California, and at a submarine base in Georgia. In 2012, he was assigned to the Presidential Food Service, which is run by the U.S. Navy and manages the White House Mess as part of the White House Military Office.
During the presidency of Donald Trump, Nauta became a personal valet to the president. He was responsible for responding to the presidential call button, including when the president requested Diet Cokes, which Nauta would bring to Trump on a silver platter. Nauta was promoted to senior chief petty officer in September 2020.
