White House Deputy Chief of Staff

The White House Deputy Chief of Staff is officially the top aide to the White House Chief of Staff, who is the senior aide to the President of the United States. The Deputy Chief of Staff usually has an office in the West Wing and is responsible for ensuring the smooth running of the White House bureaucracy, as well as such other duties as the Chief of Staff assigns to him or her. In some administrations, there are multiple deputy chiefs with different duties.

In the Trump administration, there are four current Deputy Chiefs of Staff:

Zachary Fuentes, Principal Deputy Chief of Staff
Chris Liddell, Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Coordination
Daniel Walsh, Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations
Bill Shine, Deputy Chief of Staff for Communications and White House Director of Communications
