While President Joe Biden promised that none of his family members would receive government jobs, that hasn't extended to his top tier of advisers
Psaki was asked at the Monday briefing what safeguards the White House has in place to prevent preferential hiring of family members.
'We have the highest ethical standards of any administration in history,' Psaki replied. 'A number of ethics officials have conveyed that and we're proud of that... This is the most diverse administration in American history.'
At least five children of his top aides have gotten jobs, according to a report Friday in The Washington Post Relatives of other aides - including Chief of Staff Ron Klain's wife and press secretary Jen Psaki's sister - have also secured high-level posts
White House counselor Steve Ricchetti, deputy chief of staff Bruce Reed and presidential personnel office director Cathy Russell each have at least one direct family member working for the Biden administration
The scrutiny on hiring practices was triggered in part by the Treasury Department's announcement last week that it was hiring J.J. Ricchetti, son of Biden counselor Steve Ricchetti, leading to accusations of nepotism.
J.J. Ricchetti, a recent college graduate with no other experience listed on his department bio, will be a special assistant to the Treasury's office of legislative affairs.
A White House official said that the administration had prioritized hiring volunteers from the campaign, such as J.J.
Steve Ricchetti’s daughter, Shannon, a 2016 college graduate, also works at the White House, serving as the deputy associate director of the office of the White House social secretary.
Steve Ricchetti's son Daniel, who has more work experience, serves as a senior adviser in the office of the undersecretary of state for arms control and international security.

Jen, sweetie, pray tell. What metric did you use to support your outrageous claim that you and the other cronies “have the highest ethical standards of any administration in history”?
Oh, wait. I get it.
You HAVE the highest standards; you just don’t USE them.
Did anyone else think this was a Babylon Bee article and peek and the source?
Where’s the fact checkers on Bidens campaign promise of no Nepotism??? There’s NO fact checkers in sight for any of Bidens words, promises or actions.
Biden/Putin 2024!
Hunter's hard drive has been accidentally erased...as has every copy that was made of it.
That, is unsettling.
Unfortunately that’s probably an accurate representation of the twisted freak.
Yes, we HAVE the most ethical standards... sure, we don’t USE them, but we HAVE them somewhere.
Might be in that file drawer. Or maybe under the bed.
No come to think of it, they’re in the attic where we won’t ever stumble across them by accident.
‘We have the highest ethical standards of any administration in history,’
Higher that the one lead by a black man?
That’s racist.
'A number of ethics officials have conveyed that
Yeah, Psaki is 42 years old...That makes her 35 years too old for Biden....
“’We have the highest ethical standards of any administration in history,’ Psaki replied”
OMG, can you imagine if a Republican had said this with the same track record!!! Psaki has zero self respect, and certainly can’t think on her feet. No telling how long it will be to extricate her foot from her mouth.
“Just saying it makes it true!”
And according PinochiBama, so was his administration.
Liars lie
