“That’s not all that dissimilar from former Speaker Kevin McCarthy, who has disclosed a mortgage for his California home valued between $100,000 and $250,000.”

I guess it’s possible in CA, if one has $500+k in ‘equity’ (a little BLM lingo there). But if home is worth $250k or less, it was given to him under suspicious circumstances.

So, he earned the money from LibertyU.

Headline makes it sound like an illegal campaign contribution.

No one enters in debt.

And they're no different than millions of others who accumulate wealth...We have plenty of millionaires in Town...slow and steady they made their wealth.

I wonder if Nancy Pelosi is still flying back and forth to California in the government plane stocked with top shelf alcohol. She kept the secret speakers office for a long time. Nobody will mess with her because of her mob connections.

Obama did.

In fact he entered the White House in debt.

And they're no different than millions of others who accumulate wealth...We have plenty of millionaires in Town...slow and steady they made their wealth.

Except they don't.

Less then eight years as a general rule from debt to great wealth. And it certainly is not on their salary, as exorbitant as it is, that they are building that wealth.

But sure, congress is full of hard working little angels who build their wealth slowly and surely through hard work and rigorous honesty.

And that ocean front property in Arizona is a real bargain at a million an inch.

Please read the disclosure on Biden slowly. And ask yourself in the view of all the things you know about the Biden family if you actually believe it.

And then apply that to the rest of the story.
