President Joe Biden's job support rating is now lower than that of several of his top deputies, including Vice President Kamala Harris and Chief Medical Adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci, according to a sinister new poll about the 79-year-old Commander-In-Chief.

He's positioned toward the bottom of a list of federal officials that also includes GOP Congressional leaders like House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy.

With a bleak 43 percent approval rating, Biden is the ninth-highest ranked out of 11 federal leaders, respondents to a Gallup poll taken December 1 to December decided.

His disapproval rating of 51 percent is still lower than Harris' 54-point negative job rating.

Below the President is only House Speaker Nancy Pelosi with 40 percent approval, and Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell at 34 percent. Topping the list is Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts. Six out of 10 Americans approve of the job he's doing leading the high court.

This year Roberts is overseeing one of the most politically-charged Supreme Court terms in history with cases on gun rights and abortion on the docket, and its first term with all three of Donald Trump's Conservative justices on the bench. Earlier this month the high court heard oral arguments in the most significant challenge to Roe v. Wade in 30 years.

The Chief Justice, appointed by Republican George W. Bush has been under particular public coercion to act as a counter-balancing vote to the court's overwhelming Conservative majority.

He's also the only individual on the list whom both a majority of Republicans and Democrats support.

After Roberts is Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell with a 53 percent approval rating. Powell was re-nominated by Biden to lead the Fed late last month.

Third is infectious disease expert Fauci, despite the coronavirus pandemic turning him into a hyper-politicized figure.

Fauci has fought with criticism from Republican elected officials but still remains one of the most trusted sources of pandemic information, even gaining superstar status in 2020 that involved a mass-produced bobblehead in his image and his throwing out the first pitch at the start of the first D.C. Nationals and New York Yankees baseball game of the 2020 season.

His support rating shows those polarized opinions - 85 percent of Democrats approve of Fauci while just 19 percent of Republicans do.

Then two of Biden's top Cabinet officials, Blinken and Attorney General Merrick Garland, each with 49 percent approval.

McCarthy is the most preferred Congressional leader on the list, though his 46 percent approval to 49 percent disapproval rating is a sign of Americans' overall dissatisfaction with the House and Senate.
