Biden used campaign donations to help pay his legal bills last year

 


The Democratic National Committee shelled out donor cash to pay President Joe Biden's legal bills related to special counsel Robert Hur's investigation into classified documents, even though party members have complained that the Republican National Committee is covering part of former President Donald Trump's growing legal bill.

According to Axios, which was the first to call out the hypocrisy, “Biden used campaign donations to help pay his legal bills last year during the special counsel's investigation into his handling of classified documents,” two sources confirmed to the outlet.

"The payments, made through the Democratic National Committee, are at odds with the Biden campaign's recent attacks on Donald Trump for spending his campaign funds on legal fees," the outlet further noted.

The Democratic National Committee, which has raised the largest donations for Biden's re-election campaign, paid more than $1.5 million to lawyers or law firms representing Biden during the investigation, according to committee financial reports.  /CBrief
