Anita Dunn's influence is felt every day in the White House, even if most people have never heard of her.

A Democratic messaging guru whose career dates to the Carter administration, Dunn helped craft Biden catchphrases including"MAGA Republicans,""Bidenomics," and now"MAGAnomics." She's also no stranger to controversy."Bidenomics is rooted in the simple idea that we need to grow the economy from the middle out and the bottom up—not the top down," reads a memo Dunn co-authored when the White House began promoting the term in June.

Dunn provided assistance to powerful Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan in 2018 and 2019, netting SKDK more than $200,000, the outlet reported. Madigan was also leader of the state Democratic Party at the time and was being sued by a former employee of his political committees who alleged that he retaliated against her for reporting harassment by her direct supervisor.

More recently, Dunn caught the attention of ethics experts for a pair of short-term gigs in the Biden White House. She did two terms as a"special government employee," making just below the $132,552 salary threshold for disclosure requirements, which allowed her to keep her list of SKDK clients private along with a substantial asset portfolio of at least $16.8 million.

Dunn told the outlet that Biden likes to say he's the only Irishman who doesn't carry a grudge and that"I'm not Irish, but I will carry his grudges." "'MAGA' is a campaign slogan used to win elections, and I don't think either side, when they have the White House, should be referring to MAGA in their official communications," he said.
