Biden senior officials have family working for feds — despite president’s rule

A number of President Biden’s senior officials have relatives or spouses working for the administration — apparently not subject to Biden’s rule that “No one in our family and extended family is going to be involved in any government undertaking or foreign policy.”

Secretary of State Tony Blinken, national security adviser Jake Sullivan and White House press secretary Jen Psaki each have one direct family member working for the federal government. In addition to them, top White House staffers such as senior adviser Anita Dunn, counselor Steve Richetti, deputy chief of staff Bruce Reed and Presidential Personnel Office director Cathy Russell each have at least one family member employed by the administration.
