TLDR: The judge hearing the case about overturning California's new laws that take away parental rights seems to be leaning towards overturning those laws.
One of the most important cases in California is heating up. Mirabelli v. Olson, a federal case out of the Southern District of California continues to instill a sense of hope and confidence that courts will restore parental rights in the public school domain. Initially, the case only involved two Escondido Union School District teachers who refused to deceive parents by hiding that their students adopted a transgender identity while at school. The brilliant Judge Roger Benitez issued a thoughtful ruling in September of 2023 that enjoins the Escondido Union District (District), the California Department of Education (CDE) and the Attorney General Rob Bonta (AG) from enforcing the District’s policy 5145.3 that requires school employees to hide from parents that their child is adopting an identity that differs from their sex. The prohibition is for the pendency of the case. Currently though, this incredible outcome only safeguards the teachers and students at the one district.
Attorney Paul Jonna, the attorney for the teachers, knew that he needed to extend Judge Benitez’s ruling to all school districts in California; the Benitez ruling was just too powerful not to parlay into a more significant outcome. Judge Benitez not only understands the harm to the two teachers, but he comprehends the wider issue of parental rights as well as the detriment to students when schools participate in the social transition of students without parental involvement. He ruled:
<image of text of ruling>
Following that ruling Jonna rustled up some parents of students in other school districts that had their children secretly socially transitioned at school along with a couple more teachers from the District to add as plaintiffs in the case. Jonna also astutely raised Assembly Bill 1955, the law that passed this summer that prevents school districts from adopting notification policies that would require school employees to inform parents of their children’s gender confusion. Jonna then motioned to expand the Mirabelli case into a class action and to enjoin every school district in the state from complying with any school policy that requires employees to deceive parents about their student’s gender identities. This case can, in one fell swoop, disembowel AB1955 and return parents back to their rightful position as caretakers of their children. (If the government loses the case at the district court level, it will appeal the ruling, but having a strong trial court opinion will be more than a flesh wound to gender ideology.)
Escondido’s main defense of its deception policy is that the California Department of Education (CDE) required school personnel to actively deceive parents. In a gross misinterpretation of law, CDE created an FAQ page on its website that stated “schools must consult with a transgender student to determine who can or will be informed of the student’s transgender status, if anyone, including the student’s family. With rare exceptions, schools are required to respect the limitations that a student places on the disclosure of their transgender status, including not sharing that information with the student’s parents.” A layperson reading that language would unquestionably believe that the secrecy policies are mandated and in fact, even school board attorneys fell for it.
The CDE references a common school board policy, 5145.3, when specifying how schools should hide a child’s struggles with gender from their parents. This policy has not only been adopted by the majority of school districts in California, but attorneys advise their boards to create a separate “shadow” file to skirt federal education law (FERPA) and avoid providing key information to parents who directly inquire about their children’s gender identity.
By blaming CDE, the school district opened the door for Mirabelli’s attorneys to add CDE as a defendant, as well as Attorney General Rob Bonta, who, in a separate lawsuit, sued the Chino Valley Unified School District (CVUSD) for its policy requiring parental notification when a child tries to change their name or pronouns. CVUSD prevailed in court and continues to have a notification policy. (The AG has yet to decide whether he will appeal that ruling, or whether he is satisfied with his attack on parental notification policies under AB1955. He has a few more weeks to make that decision).
CDE and the AG are now trying to extract themselves from the Mirabelli case with weak arguments that Judge Benitez does not appear to buy; primarily arguing that the secrecy policy was just merely optional guidance and not a mandated rule. However, the facts belie their flimsy argument, since almost every school district adopted the secrecy policy, CDE and the AG publicly supported AB1955, and each of them sued school districts that adopted parental notification policies...
... In early December, Judge Benitez held a hearing on the District’s, CDE’s and the AG’s motions to dismiss the case against them. While the court has yet to issue its final ruling, the transcript from the hearing signals that Judge Benitez will retain his nickname, Saint Benitez.
Below are some of the most salient excerpts from the hearing that clearly demonstrate that Judge Benitez realizes what is at stake and is well-aware of the game of semantics being waged by CDE and the AG.
... Story continues... and its interesting and worth reading the rest...
In a surprising announcement, Nora Vargas, chair of the San Diego County Board of Supervisors, said Friday that she would not serve a second term out of concern for her “personal safety and security.”
“After very careful consideration, I’ve decided to conclude my tenure as County Supervisor, completing my first term this January 6, 2025,” she said in an email to constituents. “Due to personal safety and security reasons, I will not take the oath of office for a second term.”
Vargas handily won re-election in November, with 62.5% of the vote.
However, she has been a target of criticism from some conservatives in San Diego County because of her advocacy for equity and human rights and support for immigration, while also drawing some scorn from her own constituents for her handling of the ongoing border sewage crisis.
County supervisor meetings have become increasingly rowdy in recent years, with Vargas calling for a recess as recently as Dec. 10 due to a screaming person in the gallery during a contentious public speaking session regarding an immigration policy.
“It has been my honor to serve in public office during unprecedented times, including the past four years on the San Diego County Board of Supervisors,” Vargas said in her message.
“Whether serving as an elected board member on the Southwestern College Governing Board for seven years or as your first Latina County Supervisor, I’ve had the privilege of leading transformative initiatives in the County of San Diego and beyond for nearly 30 years, alongside many of you.”
“As a Guerrera at my core, I remain committed to continuing the fight for equity, justice, and human rights – just in a different capacity. I look forward to staying whole-heartedly engaged and active in the pursuit of a more equitable society.”
The two Democrats and two Republicans remaining on the board may be hard-pressed to agree to a temporary candidate to fill Vargas’ seat, which could lead to a special election in 2025.
“I greatly appreciate Chair Vargas’ service to the county and our community, and I hope she finds resolution to the challenges with which she is grappling,” said Supervisor Terra Lawson-Remer. “As Vice Chair of the County Board of Supervisors, let me assure you that the work and new direction of the county will continue moving forward.
“We will continue advancing our agenda to uplift all of our communities. I’m confident in my fellow county supervisors, executive team, and employees, and we will keep tackling the major issues facing our region, just as the public expects and deserves.”

California’s largest teachers’ union has poured unprecedented amounts of campaign dollars into local affiliates trying to boot conservative board members in school districts that have become battlegrounds for gender ideology policies...
The California Teachers Association has given some $213,000 to four local unions that are fighting to subvert or reverse school board policies that require officials to tell parents if their child begins socially transitioning at school, such as by adopting pronouns of the opposite sex and using opposite-sex bathrooms and changing rooms. The funding levels are multiple times higher than any union contributions those affiliates have previously received.
California Teachers Association president David Goldberg told EdSource last week that his group is fighting "white Christian nationalists" who want to mount a "fundamentalist attack on democracy."

I have posted twice on GAW about how I was trying to hold the California State Senate accountable to following the oath and bond laws: First post: https://greatawakening.win/p/17tebrcPqw/i-have-served-the-california-sta/ Second post: https://greatawakening.win/p/17txobDPOK/update-the-california-state-sena/
Before I get into the update, I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for all the helpful information, prayers, support and encouragement. I love you guys.
I used Common Law. Step one was to serve the State Senate with a Notice of Legal Violation notifying them that Scott Wiener and others were working unlawfully without oaths/bonds, which I did in July: https://gwsandiego.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Redacted-Notice-of-Legal-Violations-to-Senate-Committee.pdf.
For those that are unfamiliar with Scott Wiener, he is the guy from San Francisco who has been pushing the WEF agenda, and has been especially aggressive with eroding parental rights and decriminalizing pedophelia. He also blocks legislation intended to protect children.
Unsurprisingly, the State Senate did not have any of the people sign oaths/procure bonds. So on August 9, I executed step 2, which was a Writ of Quo Warranto, which is essentially a notice for everyone without an oath/bond to vacate office since they have no legal jurisdiction to be in office: https://gwsandiego.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Writ-of-Quo-Warranto-redacted.pdf
No one stepped down. On September 18, the CA Secretary of State confirmed that Wiener and the others still had not taken oaths/bonds. I also had her check a bunch of people that I haven't requested info on before, and found one assemblyman and 4 more state senators without current oaths: https://gwsandiego.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Sept-2024-batch-of-oaths-from-SOS.pdf. None had bonds.
On September 26, 2024, I served the State Senate with step 3 of the Common Law process, a Certificate of Default. Pages 1 - 18: https://gwsandiego.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Certificate-of-Default-pages-1-18.pdf. Pages 19 - 35: https://gwsandiego.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Certficate-of-Default-Pages-19-35.pdf
Here is the summary of the contents: https://gwsandiego.net/blog/?p=2931
The summary of the summary is that 96 people who were all copied on the first two sets of legal documents are all conspiring together to commit fraud by knowingly allowing these people to work unlawfully, and they are also conspiring to violate our rights by allowing these fraudsters to pass bills that violate the state and federal constitutions. I demanded that all the people previously named without oaths be terminated and prosecuted, that the newly named people take oaths, that the State Senate start requiring bonds again, that all of Wiener's work be voided (I named a few specific bills) and restitution made for harm caused by the fraudulently passed bills (such as refunding excess taxes that were fraudulently imposed). I closed by saying that if they don't immediately change their behavior to serve constituents in accordance with the law, "we the people" will remove them all.
I have started a petition to demand that the State Senate follow the laws and vacate Wiener from office: https://www.change.org/p/demand-scott-wiener-s-immediate-removal-from-office-for-committing-felony.
I'm also asking people to call the State Senate every day and ask why they are flagrantly violating state and federal laws and to demand that they comply with the laws by vacating Wiener. The numbers are at the bottom of this page: https://gwsandiego.net/blog/?p=2931
If we can get Wiener removed before the election, the republican opponent automatically wins as it is too late to put another democrat on the ballot. The whole country follows what San Francisco does, and if we can successfully take back our power as constituents in San Francisco, the whole country will quickly follow.
I did another podcast on getting Wiener removed (45-min, audio only): https://gwsandiego.net/blog/?p=2982
I reactivated my X account that I had never really used: @christigrab and I started a Truth Social account: @christigrab.
Please spread the word and also please continue to pray that me and my family are protected as the truth of the corruption comes out. Thank you!
Side note: The assemblyman that I caught without an oath is Joaquin Arambula, the guy who authored the bill to give downpayment money to illegals: https://digitaldemocracy.calmatters.org/bills/ca_202320240ab1840. Since I am going after the state senate and not the assembly, I haven't addressed Arambula in the documents, but I thought you guys would be interested in knowing this.

20-minute video. The TLDW is:
In April or May of 2020, a guy's house was raided by the DOJ and their assets seized. He was told he needed to plead guilty, but the DOJ wouldn't tell him what the charges were against him.
He and his wife moved in with family and sold their home and in order to raise cash for an attorney (as all their cash had been seized by the DOJ). During discovery, the man finally found out what was going on.
He had brokered a commercial real estate deal for Amazon in early 2020. With the closure of all of Amazon's commercial spaces, Amazon wanted out of this new real estate deal. The only way Amazon could get out of it was to prove that they had been defrauded by the real estate agent.
So Amazon called their buddies at the DOJ, and the DOJ and Amazon conspired to frame him for an alleged crime in order for Amazon to get out of this real estate contract.

Here is a video of how the City of Huntington Beach is pushing back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmLs9vcIXyU.
The video is 1/2 hour, so here is the TLDW:
AB 1955, which Newsom signed in July, prevents school districts from alerting parents when a student starts identifying as another gender. In response to it, Huntington Beach has passed Ordinance 4326, which nullifies AB 1955.
It is controversial because the city has no authority over the schools. However, in the interview, the HB mayor argues that parental rights have nothing to do with education. She states that AB 1955 is a government overreach that violates the rights of the people in her city by sneaking it into school doctrine, and as such, they have every right to create laws that protect the HB constituents from this overreach.

SEPTEMBER 3, 2024
IN SUMMARY
Some California communities are resisting progressive policies from Sacramento. Democrats in the Legislature say they are going too far and are responding with bills to shut them down.
Key Quotes from Article:
"Democrats in Sacramento passed legislation this year to stifle emerging local policies that they argued undermine the state’s commitment to diversity, civil rights and other progressive values"
"...conservatives are increasingly using the relative autonomy of city councils, county boards of supervisors and school boards to protest liberal state policymaking and assert a competing vision for their communities.... The result has been local laws to require voter identification at the polls, block abortion clinics from opening, review children’s library books for sexual content and mandate parental notification when students change their gender identity at school — prompting legislative Democrats to respond with measures that would ban those policies."
"The clash began intensifying last year, with a showdown over an elementary school social studies textbook. When a Riverside County school board refused to adopt the state-approved curriculum because it referenced assassinated LGBTQ rights activist Harvey Milk, Gov. Gavin Newsom threatened to send the textbook directly to students and bill the district, which then reversed course. Legislators subsequently passed a law to penalize school boards that ban books because they include the history or culture of LGBTQ people and other diverse groups."
"The Legislature also approved, and Newsom signed, a measure to limit when local governments can count ballots by hand, after Shasta County canceled its contract with a voting machine company because of unfounded election fraud claims pushed by Trump and his allies."
"A spate of legislation has followed this year, most controversially Assembly Bill 1955 by Assemblymember Chris Ward, a San Diego Democrat, which prevents school districts from alerting parents when a student starts identifying as another gender. Such parental notification policies began sprouting up across California after the 2022 election, when Republicans focused on winning control of school boards, but critics argue they amount to forced outing. Essayli and Democratic Assemblymember Corey Jackson nearly came to blows on the Assembly floor over AB 1955, which Newsom signed in July."
"Several other measures are headed to the governor’s desk after receiving final approval from the Legislature last week, including Bauer-Kahan’s AB 2085 to streamline the permitting process for reproductive health clinics. Though California has positioned itself as an “abortion sanctuary” since the U.S Supreme Court overturned the constitutional right to abortion — even putting reproductive rights into the state constitution — local opposition has prevented clinics from opening in cities such as Beverly Hills and Fontana."
"Senate Bill 1174 by state Sen. Dave Min, an Irvine Democrat, would prohibit local governments from requiring voter identification in municipal elections, which Huntington Beach adopted this past spring as a security measure despite criticisms that it would create unnecessary hurdles for poor and minority voters."
"And AB 1825 by Assemblymember Al Muratsuchi, would outlaw the sort of citizen review panels that Huntington Beach and Fresno County recently created to restrict access to library books with “sexual references” and “gender-identity content.” Supporters argue the committees can keep inappropriate material out of children’s hands, while opponents contend that they target books with LGBTQ themes for censorship."
"Conservative politicians counter that they are simply reacting to a state government that has pushed much further left than their constituents by listening to the LGBTQ rights movement and other activists rather than the people who elected them. Essayli said the Democratic supermajority in the Legislature is over-representative of a progressive ideology compared to California voters, only 46% of whom are registered Democrats."
"A spokesperson for Newsom declined to comment on the legislation pending before him"
Hi Everyone,
I've been posting on here about my quest to remove CA State Senator Scott Wiener from office, void his votes and void his legislation as he has been working unlawfully without an oath: https://greatawakening.win/p/17txobDPOK/update-the-california-state-sena/
This new tax required 2/3 approval from the legislators to pass. However, Scott Wiener has been working unlawfully and thus Wiener's vote must be voided. Hence this law no longer has 2/3 and must be voided.
I am hoping that you all can help me get the attention of the gun rights activists to join my movement to call the State Senate daily to demand Wiener vacate office/void votes. Here is a 90-second video about it:

I am certain the three clips below will resonate with liberals. They may not change anyone's mind, but they will certainly plant seeds of doubt about the integrity of Scott Wiener and the Democrat party in general. Given how the democrat party is imploding right now, the soil may finally be fertile for these seeds to grow. Please share with your liberal friends.

Choice quotes from the article:
"...California officials are pushing school districts to convert their surplus property into housing for teachers, school staff and even students and families. Some districts have already started; now the state wants every district to become a landlord."
"If Proposition 2, a $10 billion school facilities bond, passes this fall, schools could use that money to not only repair classrooms and other structures, but build teacher housing. "
"The model state officials often point to is 705 Serramonte in Daly City. The Jefferson Union High School District opened the 122-unit apartment complex in 2022, and it now houses a quarter of the district staff... The district paid for the $75 million project by passing a $33 million bond specifically for teacher housing, and borrowed the rest... Teachers commute(d) from the East Bay and beyond, and the district grappled with a persistent 25% staff turnover rate annually, said district spokesperson Denise Shreve... Since 705 Serramonte opened, the district has had near zero turnover...“We call it ‘adult dorms.’
"A better solution, she said, would be for housing to be left to regional authorities and for the state to fund school districts sufficiently to pay their teachers more."
Three weeks ago, I posted on GAW about how I was trying to hold the California State Senate accountable to following the oath and bond laws: https://greatawakening.win/p/17tebrcPqw/i-have-served-the-california-sta/
I used Common Law. Step one was to serve the State Senate with a Notice of Legal Violation notifying them that Scott Wiener and others were working unlawfully without oaths/bonds, which I did in July: https://gwsandiego.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Redacted-Notice-of-Legal-Violations-to-Senate-Committee.pdf.
For those that are unfamiliar with Scott Wiener, he has been aggressively pushing to erode parental rights and legalize pedophelia. He also blocks legislation intended to protect children.
Unsurprisingly, the State Senate did not have any of the people sign oaths/procure bonds. So on August 9, I executed step 2, which was a Writ of Quo Warranto: https://gwsandiego.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Writ-of-Quo-Warranto-redacted.pdf
A Writ of Quo Warranto is essentially a notice for everyone without an oath to vacate office since they have no legal jurisdiction to be in office. I also demanded that Wiener's legislation be voided since he had no legal standing to make legislation and that Wiener be prosecuted since I had documented in the Notice of Legal Violations that he was intentionally working unlawfully (felony with 3-years in prison).
They had until yesterday to vacate office. Yesterday afternoon, I called and checked status on a few of the people. None of the people I checked on had left, including Wiener. In fact, in one of the offices that I called, the woman who answered the phone laughed at me. A giant, hearty laugh that clearly said that she believed they were above the law.
It is up to "we the people" to create a public humiliation campaign to force Scott Wiener and the others to resign. I am excited about this strategy because it is non-partisan. Most liberals shut off when you say Wiener is corrupt. In this strategy, even a liberal will ask "well, why won't you sign a promise to uphold the state and federal constitutions?"
Here are more details: https://gwsandiego.net/blog/?p=2822#more-2822
I did a follow up interviewed on a podcast a few days ago where I talked about the call in campaign: https://rumble.com/v5b7qbx-christi-grab-updates-americans-on-writ-of-quo-warranto-to-prosecute-scott-w.html
Please spread the word and also please continue to pray that me and my family are protected as the truth of the corruption comes out. Thank you!
I think I may have originally found this video on GA. Given the craziness lately, I think it is a good time for all of us to review this video so we fully understand why we need to put on the armor of God and fight back against evil
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t80cMnevJtc&t=1s
My notes:
30 million people practice this religion in the United States.
Slide 21 explains why they attempted genocide via the covid vaccine
Slide 24 - 26 explain why they torture children prior to sacrifice. With so many people practicing this religion, it is understandable why they set up such a vast child-procurement network.
Slide 26 — they torture the child until right before death, then drink the blood of the child from the jugular as the child is dying. Vampirism is real.
Hi All,
I've posted periodically on here about the various avenues that I have been utilizing to fight government corruption. They've mostly been prayer requests for big days (ie when I had to make speeches, go to court, etc). I want to thank you for all your prayers over the years. I do believe that I am on a mission from God and that your prayers have helped to protect and empower me.
My latest attempt is to force Scott Wiener and many more out of the State Senate for working unlawfully without oaths and bonds. I put a lot of work into filing this Notice of Legal Violation: https://gwsandiego.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Redacted-Notice-of-Legal-Violations-to-Senate-Committee.pdf.
But the reality is that the Senate Committee won't make them take an oath/procure a bond. It is up to "we the people" to create a public humiliation campaign to force Scott Wiener and the others to resign.
I am excited about this strategy because it is non-partisan. Most liberals shut off when you say Wiener is corrupt. In this strategy, even a liberal will ask "well, why won't you sign a promise to uphold the state and federal constitutions?"

Note: This was published by an organization called Open The Books. I got it as an email and the link to see the story on Substack isn't working for me, so I have copied and pasted it below:
Chaos reigns on the vice president’s staff. And Harris tried to hide it by claiming that her office is not subject to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).
“People really, really do not want to work for Kamala Harris,” wrote former staffer Dan McLaughlin, January 2022.
Topline
Under Kamala Harris, the Office of the Vice President has been called a “revolving door,” a “staff exodus” of key aides “heading for the exits.”
That’s not hyperbole from the national media.
Our auditors at OpenTheBooks quantified an extraordinarily high 91.5-percent staff turnover rate. We used U.S. Senate disclosures to conduct our investigation and those databases can be downloaded below.
Elected in November 2020, Harris took the oath of office in January 2021.
As of March 31, 2024, only four of the initial 47 staffers from the first year are still employed – consistently and without interruption – by the Vice President.
Furthermore, the turnover chaos isn’t getting better. In the trailing 12-month period, 24 staffers left — that’s almost half the employees.
Download the Office of Vice President 2021 & 2024 payrolls here (source: U.S. Senate disclosures)
Key facts
The “top-to-bottom dysfunction” that The Atlantic referenced in October 2023 is shown in the reported payrolls that we captured.
“In her first year and a half as vice president, Harris saw the departure of her chief of staff, communications director, domestic-policy adviser, national security adviser, and other aides,” the magazine wrote.
If only that was all who left.
The semi-annual Report of the Secretary of the Senate, among other things, lists the names, titles and salaries of staff in the Office of the Vice President (OVA).
In the most recent publishing through March 31, only four staff from the original 47 listed in the 2021 report remained consistently employed and are among the office’s 50 current staff members.
The Kamala Harris Fabulous Four – here are the names, titles, employment date, and salaries of the four employees most loyal to Kamala Harris:
Yael S. Belkind has been assistant to the chief of staff since Jan. 20, 2021, earning $85,924; Nasrina Bargzie was associate counsel since Feb. 10, 2021, now is deputy council, taking home $118,066.

The other 45 people employed in OVP as of March 31 were hired after Sept. 30, 2021, when staff had already begun leaving the office.
In the last year alone, (April 1, 2023 to March 31, 2024) 24 people left their jobs with Harris.
Key background—Kamala Harris Tried To Hide Everything
The Kamala Harris, Office of Vice President, is committed to the opacity of its payrolls and all other office information.
In our 2021 reporting at Forbes, “VP Kamala Harris Is The Least Transparent Elected Official In The Nation,” we outlined the OVP’s refusal to provide any information to the public and taxpayers. Her office denied our FOIA request and claimed that they were immune.
We had filed a FOIA request with the OVP for its staff payroll in September 2021. A spokesman replied:
“Thank you for your inquiry. The Office of the Vice President is not subject to Freedom of Information Act requests. See 5 U.S.C. 552; 44 U.S.C. 2207.”
We even tried to coax the information out of the OVP:
“I understand the OVP isn't subject to FOIA — is there any information you can provide me at all about the office staff? Whether it's total staff employees (without names or any other employee-specific info) or total payroll for 2020 or current numbers for 2021?”
However, the spokesman replied:
“Thank you for the inquiry. OVP does not have any information to share at this time.”
Therefore, we had to rely on the U.S. Senate’s semi-annual report for Oct. 1, 2020, to March 31, 2021, which gives a list of the 28 staff members who had been hired by the new administration between Jan. 20 and March 31, 2021. Over the next few months, the OVP added another approximately 20 staff members.
We calculated that for VP Harris’s 28 staff listed in the Senate report, the 2021 salaries added up to $2,334, 223.
But President Joseph Biden’s congressional budget submission shows the OVP got $5 million for 23 full time staff in 2021 and requested over $6 million for 27 full time staff in 2022.
The OVP wouldn’t answer for the discrepancy in budget and staffing, citing the earlier provision that states only federal agencies are subject to FOIA, and the OVP, it argues, isn’t a federal agency.
Vice President Kamala Harris, the second-in-command, and possible next president of the United States, is the only elected official in the country not required to share her office’s spending with the public.
We captured 25 million public employee salary and pension records on 55,000 FOIA requests last year. You can search all federal, state, and local government payrolls on our website for free or with our free AI search tool, Benjamin, named after Benjamin Franklin.
Biden’s High Turnover
Harris isn’t alone in her inability to retain staff.
Since 2021, only 127 of Biden’s initial 560 White House employees remain, a 77-percent turnover rate that would be considered high if not for Harris’ 92-percent rate.
Between 2023 and 2024, 225 people left, a 43-percent turnover rate that is only slightly lower than the 46-percent between 2022 and 2023.
But Biden’s high turnover isn’t the only staffing failure that should give taxpayers pause.
He has the largest White House headcount since the Richard Nixon administration, who was the first president to exceed 500 staffers.
Now Biden employs 565 staffers, costing taxpayers $61 million in salaries. That’s up from the 524 staffers in 2023, costing $52 million.
Biden has 152 more employees than Trump (413) (FY2020) and 97 more than Obama (468) (FY2012), when each were in the fourth year of their first terms.
This shouldn’t be surprising, as Biden has made clear his intentions to grow the size of the federal government.
In the first nine days of his presidency, Biden issued many executive orders expanding the size, scope, and power of the federal bureaucracy.
During his first three years, more than 40,000 bureaucrats were added across the 123 executive agencies, outside of the Department of Defense, U.S. Post Office, and intelligence services.
Crucial quote
Symone Sanders, Harris' chief spokesperson and senior adviser, in early December 2021 was quoted in The Washington Post responding to critics of the staff departures, saying,
“We are not making rainbows and bunnies all day. What I hear is that people have hard jobs and I’m like ‘Welcome to the club.’”
She left the OVP later that year.
Critic
“Working for Harris is a nightmare, not just because she rides her staff hard, but also because she does so without the competence, decisiveness, and effectiveness that inspires people in politics to suffer under demanding bosses,” Dan McLaughlin wrote in a January 2022 National Review article titled, “People Really, Really Do Not Want to Work for Kamala Harris.”
