Three Biden administration officials have exceeded the amount of time they can use the “acting” title and are currently serving in their positions unlawfully, a government watchdog group declared Wednesday.that Deidre Harrison, the acting controller at the Office of Management and Budget; Allison Randall, the acting director of the Department of Justice’s Office of Violence Against Women; and Charlotte A.
All three officials have been serving in an acting capacity since November 2021, exceeding the 210 day limit the law sets after the role becomes vacant, or 300 day limit after a presidential inauguration, according to the GAO. Officials can only stay in an acting role for a longer period of time if a permanent nomination is pending or if a nomination is withdrawn or rejected, the watchdog explains.
The GAO also found that Tae D. Johnson, as acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and three former acting assistant administrators of the Bureau of Asia at the U.S. Agency for International Development were in violation of the law. However, at ICE, Johnson’s job title is now deputy director and senior official performing the duties of the director for US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and thus he is no longer in violation of the law. Likewise, GAO found that no one at USAID’s Asia bureau is currently using the acting title anymore.

Arkansas Gov. Sanders Slams Biden for ‘Woke Fantasies'Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders is accusing President Joe Biden of focusing on “woke fantasies.” Sanders, a former White House press secretary for President Donald Trump, is delivering the GOP response to Biden’s State of the Union address Tuesday night. She was sworn in last month as Arkansas’ first female governor and, at 40, is the youngest governor in the country. With her speech, GOP leaders are giving a platform to a figure linked closely to Trump. The former president remains influential within the party even as Republicans question how much of a hindrance his quest to return to the White House has become.
