Biden-linked lobbyists see sharp increase in cash streams
NY Post ^ | 08/12/2021 | Joe Schoffstall , Fox News

Several lobbying firms with connections to President Biden experienced a sharp increase in cash during the first six months of 2021, with some raking in four times as much revenue over the same time period in 2020.

One firm cashing in on the Biden administration is headed by the brother of a senior White House official, and another bought a lobbying group owned by a top official from the presidential campaign. Two other firms are linked to lobbyists who worked under Biden when he served in previous offices.

The influx of cash to these firms “illustrates the extent to which lobbyists are engrained in the way things get done in Washington,” Daniel Auble, a senior researcher at the Center for Responsive Politics, which tracks money in politics, told Fox News.

The most glaring instance of increased revenue through access lies with Washington, D.C.-based firm Ricchetti Inc. Jeff Ricchetti – the brother of Steve Ricchetti, Biden’s former campaign chairman who now acts as a counselor in the White House – helms the firm.

I personally think professional lobbyists should be illegal.

I hear Hunter Biden is a budding artist. Where can he be contacted as to purchasing several of his master pieces? Asking for a Chinese friend.

Left, so-called right; it’s all the same. Follow the money, always.
There are no conservatives in government.
