President Barack Obama, on his final Tuesday in office, appointed soon-to-be former staffers and supporters to administration posts, including senior adviser Valerie Jarrett and National Security Adviser Susan Rice.
Jarrett and Rice were both appointed to the Board of the John F. Kennedy Center for Performing Arts as General Trustees. While Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes was appointed as a member of the United States Holocaust Memorial Council.

Donald, get these leaches off the payroll!
I have a better idea. Abolish those worthless boards and fire everybody getting paid by them.
There are a lot of jobless who would love to have that job.
They will get ANOTHER FAT retirement check from the TAXPAYERS!!
I might agree with you, but I’d like to know what each one is doing.
These are generally not paid positions. They are prestige positions.
probably...as long as they are not civil service.
It is so they can stay in D.C. and continue causing trouble, albeit from the outside. I wonder if Jarrett will continue living with the Obamas?
I saw the headline and my heart sopped. JFK center for the ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzz....big deal.
Betcha these are paid. This is how dems sit out Republican administrations. Used to be called Sinecures.
Rhodes is a “good” choice for a “Holocaust” museum but not the one in DC. He should be the main exhibit in Holocaust museums about Iraq/Isis/Syria, The Taliban/Afghanistan, the Christian victims of Islamic violence in Nigeria, and the Benghazi 4, among other failures because it was his stupidity and incompetence that caused them.
Throw in Jarrett and Rice as additional exhibits for their treason and stupidity.
Oblama's legacy will be the weakening of America on behalf of his globalist handlers.
Same kinda job Moochelle had before the Moslem took office.
I’ll bet their parents are tickled. The little bastards won’t be moving back home into their basement.
Civil Service jobs are not permanent until one year and they can be let go anytime within that year so Trumpt needs to immediatly issue order to fire all new hires with less than one year service. Would be best way to begin to drain the swamp.
Jobs for the lads...
Valerie Jarrett needs to be as far away from anything American as she can possibly be.
Don’t fire them.
Replace their bosses with the worst bosses you can imagine. Make them work for the first times in their lives.
They certainly cannot survive in the private sector. Results are expected out here. An ‘advisory’ role does nothing.
“I have a better idea. Abolish those worthless boards and fire everybody getting paid by them.”
Privatize the Kennedy Center and Holocoust Memorial and apply the proceeds to paying down the national debt. The same with PBS, Amtrack, the US Postal Service, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, the student loan program, the National Endowment for the Arts, the National Endowment for the Humanities, the National Science Foundation, and many more organizations and agencies sucking on the taxpayer teat. The only way to restore fiscal discipline is to reduce the number of organizations supported by the taxpayer and their bloated bureaucracies.
Once these organizations are independent, they won’t be able to afford to support non-producing board members.
