Man, it really does pay to be a Biden.
Joe’s family has been raking in the goodies thanks to Dad’s political power.

According to tax records, a Delaware nonprofit organization received a $166,000 federal grant when they appointed Joe Biden’s daughter as executive director when he was the VP.
How convenient, right? And a total coinky dink.
In September 2014, the Delaware Center for Justice was selected for a competitive two-year grant by the U.S. Department of Justice through the federal Edward Byrne Memorial grant program — which Joe Biden helped steer significant funding to as vice president and senator.
Joe Biden’s daughter, Ashley Biden, 38, had been associate director of the Delaware Center for Justice for about a year at the time. Two months after the grant selection, the nonprofit organization announced that she had been promoted to executive director.
Joe Biden was one of the top advocates for the Edward Byrne grant while in the Senate and helped steer $1.7 billion to the program as vice president. The grant, which was named in honor of a fallen New York City Police Department officer, typically supports efforts to strengthen local law enforcement. The program has also faced criticism from justice reform organizations, including the American Civil Liberties Union, which claimed it perpetuated “racial disparities, police corruption, over-incarceration and civil rights abuses.”
The National Legal and Policy Center, a government watchdog group, said the timing raised questions about whether Joe Biden’s position as vice president and as an advocate for the program had any influence on the selection process. [Washington Examiner]

“The timing of the grant approval and his daughter’s ascent to leadership in the organization that received it makes it necessary for the agencies involved to investigate whether Biden improperly used his influence to steer this grant to his daughter,” said Tom Anderson, director of the National Legal and Policy Center’s Government Integrity Project.
It seems like every time we turn around Biden is helping his family members by using his political influence and power.
Did you know that the Bidens made almost $16 million dollars in just 2 years after leaving the White House? They claim it’s from “book deal” and “professor work.”
Yeah, sure.
This man is a complete scam artist who has been taking the American people for a ride for decades.
His run for the White House is more about lining his family’s pockets than anything else.
