The four most overpaid White House staffers

This is one of the funniest - and most infuriating - things we've ever heard. Did you know the White House employs two "Ethics Advisors," a "Director of Fact Checking," and a "Director for Lessons Learned"?

That's right: your tax dollars are being squandered not only on leaders who are stunningly incompetent, dishonest, and unethical, but on underlings who are supposed to be keeping those leaders competent, honest, and ethical. Obviously, we need to hire more underlings to help those underlings do a better job.

Who are these underlings and how much do they make (notice we didn't say "earn")?

Deborah Nirmala Misir, Ethics Advisor: $114,688
Erica M. Dornburg, Ethics Advisor: $100,547
Stuart Baker, Director for Lessons Learned: $106,641
Melissa M. Carson, Director of Fact Checking: $46,500
