Joe Biden burned through campaign funds at a fast clip over the past three months, ending the final quarter in 2019 with less than $9 million—after his team shelled out over $924,000 on private jets. The former vice president’s war chest of $8.9 million was a small fraction of what his leading rivals have on hand, according to newly released filings on how much each of the 12 Democratic candidates raised, spent and have left in coffers. Among his biggest expenses were $924,000 spent on EJCR LLC Dba Advanced Aviation Team, a company that offers private jet charter services, Federal Election Commission

Typical leftist - spending what he doesn’t have. Give it another month and he’ll be totally in the red.

Private jets, eh? Yet according to his climate change friends the rest of us should be walking or using only bicycles as transport. Uncle Joe is nothing if he isn't a hypocrite.

FTA: some of the cost of the private jet travel was for carbon offsets
Well that's a relief!

Small change! Obama spent 18 million every year on his Hawaii vacation alone. Also 12 million annually on his traveling speech aid crew!!

FTA:His campaign dropped more than $20,000 at the luxury Carlyle Hotel in Manhattan; more than $14,000 at the Coronado Island Marriott in San Diego
You can get a room for $65/night. What more does he need than a bed, shower, and TV with 3 channels?

Keep in mind the salary of a president is $400,000. Must be the perks. Let's ask Hunter. Could we see his tax returns?

How about that? Pervert Joey travels around on private planes while at the same time he wants to ban commercial airlines for the peons. This is exactly how the new greed, er green deal would work.

As far as I am concerned, Anderson Cooper totally lost any respect I still might have had for him when he asked Biden about the "falsely accused" Hunter and Joe. I am sure he had his CNN marching orders, but still........... he purports to be a newsman.

A subordinate question: how did the super wealthy Jane Fonda GET to the East Coast to make her 4 month stand for the Green New Deal et al. I would put ANY amount of $ on it being a private plane.

Way to go Joe. Lunchbox Joe and his traveling staff ate homemade sandwiches out of Zip-lock Bags and saved a ton of money with GEICO they deserve to travel in style.

Typical leftist is Joe Biden. He guilts us into eating by candle light, while he joyfully burns through 4 million dollars worth of aviation fuel each year (provided by suckers who vote for him).

Obviously he’s a non supporter of the Green Weenie New Deal. There goes the endorsement from AOC.
