way the junta handed out jobs to “privileged white kids,” as a “f*****g failure.”  The ''Washington Post'' reported that while Biden banned his son Hunter, his brother James, and his sister-in-law from working in the federal government, “that vow did not extend to his senior staff and their relatives. In the first few months of Biden’s presidency, at least five children of his top aides have secured coveted jobs....Beyond children, other relatives of top Biden aides also have secured high-level administration jobs or nominations.”

Shaub implied that those Democrats who hyperventilated about [[Ivanka Trump]] and [[Jared Kushner]] working as unpaid advisers should apply the same benchmark to the current White House occupant.  “I’m sorry, I know some folks don’t like hearing any criticism of [Biden]. But this royally sucks. I’m disgusted. A lot of us worked hard to tee him up to restore ethics to government and believed the promises. This is a a real “f–k you” to us—and government ethics.”<ref>https://twitter.com/waltshaub/status/1405882687026520065</ref>

Deputy press secretary Andrew Bates told the ''Washington Post'': “The president has instituted the highest ethical standards of anyone to ever hold this office. And he’s proud to have staffed the most diverse administration in American history with well-qualified public servants who reflect his values.”  Shaub responded: “The White House’s defense that they had the minimum qualifications is total BS. The issue isn’t whether they were qualified (some weren’t). It’s that a WH that promised diversity is giving these [[white privilege|privileged white kids]] with connected mommies and daddies prime jobs over others!”  Shaub wrote that “Even the f-ing head of presidential personnel, who is supposed to be keeping them honest, has a child who’s a recent college grad working in the administration. And the spouse of the White House chief of staff, for crying out loud. This is ridiculous. What a f—–g failure.”

Shaub commented on an alleged art exhibition to sell Hunter Biden's "art work" listed between $75,000 and $500,000 to anonymous buyers.
