President Donald Trump has hired Andrew Giuliani, son of former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, to a post in the Office of Public Liaison and Intergovernmental Affairs, sources told Politico.
Giuliani helped organize the New England Patriots' visit to the White House after the team won the Super Bowl, and helped first lady Melania Trump's staff during the president's speech last week before Congress.
Trump's administration has begun to fill lower- and mid-level job openings, which will alleviate some of the difficulty that outside groups have had with communicating with the White House due to understaffing, according to the report.
Giuliani's father, a Trump surrogate, withdrew his name from the running for a Cabinet position. During Trump's transition, he was named to a position as an adviser on cybersecurity. The former mayor credited himself with the idea of Trump's travel ban, Politico reported.
The former mayor's son first made headlines as a child in 1994, when he spoke his father's oath of office along with him, then played on stage while the mayor delivered his inaugural address. Chris Farley later parodied him on "Saturday Night Live."
The former mayor's daughter Caroline is on the opposite side of her father and brother's politics. In 2016, Politico reported Caroline supported Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
