From Fox News: President Donald Trump’s administration released its annual report revealing the salaries for every staffer inside the White House on Thursday.
The report shows employees’ earnings in a range of $59,070 at the lowest to $225,700 at the highest, though a few aren’t accepting salaries at all.
The top-paid staffer at the White House is Jacalynne Klopp, a senior advisor and the sole staffer earning $225,700. Behind her is Edgar Mkrtchian, an associate counsel, making $203,645.
Behind them comes a group of 33 staffers making $195,200, which includes many well-known names. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt takes in this level of salary, as does border czar Tom Homan, chief of staff Susan Wiles, trade advisor Peter Navarro, communications director Steven Cheung and police chief of staff and homeland security advisor Stephen Miller.
President Trump’s speechwriters earn between $92,500 and $121,500, and another 108 White House employees make between $59,000 and $80,000.
The report explains that 8 White House employees do not receive salaries at all. However, two of those are due to overlapping roles in other areas.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio is chief among these, not receiving any compensation for his White House role as national security advisor. Special envoy Steve Witkoff also receives compensation from the State Department rather than the White House.
Those shown on the list as receiving no salary also include:
- David P. Donaldson – Special Assistant to the President and Grant Coordinator
- Richard A. Goldberg – Senior Counselor
- Tracy L. Johnson – Senior Advisor
- Calley Means – Advisor
- David O. Sacks – White House AI and Crypto Czar
- Paula White – Senior Advisor to the White House Faith Office
President Trump donated his entire salary during his first time in office, and has vowed to do the same this term as well. U.S. presidents are paid as follows:
- $400,000 Base Salary
- $ 50,000 Expense allowance
- $100,000 for travel
- $ 19,000 for entertainment
