Biden Charges Secret Service to Rent Cottage Next to His Home
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-charges-secret-service-to-rent-cottage-next-to-his-home
The Secret Service pays the vice president $2,200 per month to rent a cottage next to his waterfront home outside Wilmington, Del., FoxNews.com has confirmed.
The Washington Times first reported that Biden has raked in more than $13,000 since April from the agency tasked with protecting him, and under the terms of their contract could make up to $66,000 by the end of 2013.
“... 40 cases the Trump Organization billed the Secret Service far higher amounts than the approved government rate...”

Tricky crapola right there.
It would look a lot worse if the Trump Hotel was charging secret service a lot more than they were charging their other customers!
That I would agree too.
“approved government rate” while may be a legit complaint is a red herring meant to make Trump look corrupt.
legit complaint technically, from the government’s perspective, I meant. Not a legit complaint about corruption. Though they’d love you to think so.
Don’t the Clintons charge the Secret Service for their accommodations at Chappaqua an amount equal to the Clintons’ mortgage payments? So the taxpayers are paying for the Clintons’ house.
LOL these buffoons really have NOTHING better to do than trash Trump everyday wanna know why..because their agenda SUCKS..notice, they dont say how great things are, nope, they just go on and on and on about Trump..they have another few weeks to do that than they lose power God willing forever
And let’s not forget about the house rented for the SS next to the crack head.
Wow. A billionaire sets all the prices at his hotels.
Even if true that the Secret Service was charged above the government rate, who was overseeing the expenditures at the Secret Service? My company has a corporate rate at many hotels. When our employees get charged the full rate, which often happens, our Accounts Payable team will call the hotel and get the bills adjusted accordingly before paying them.
I highly doubt that Trump gets involved in that kind of minutiae with his companies.
No mention of course on how Trump saved the taxpayers millions on Air Force One alone.
so 1185 was for one agent...that billhead is for mar a lago...
I’m charged ‘exorbitant” rates under Brandon for a whole slew of things . . like gasoline, medicines, groceries and household items. So, let’s not go there.
But the enemedia won't tell you that!
Michelle Obama spent 6 million dollars a year hauling her fat butt on tours around the world along with her sneering kids and her mother.
The Washington Post can forget this desperate pre midterm story. No one is impressed I’m sure.
Does it mention pelosi using military aircraft for her family travel? Illegal.
“…may have resulted in a taxpayer-funded windfall for former President Trump’s struggling businesses,”
She tipped her had with that last rhetorical flourishes “Trump’s struggling business.”
Superfluous and irrelevant to the accusation.
the Question is was the rates the same as other costumers using the same room or was it more...just guessing that it was the same rate or a lower special rate.
They always do, just can't help themselves. In their mind, it's fake but accurate and it deceives people the way we want them to think.
