In a surprising turn of events, the Democratic Party has announced that it will reimburse the White House for the cost of First Lady Jill Biden’s flights to attend her son Hunter Biden’s federal gun trial.
The first lady has been traveling back and forth between France and Delaware to support her son, who is facing charges related to lying on a federal gun purchase form about his drug use.
The Democratic National Committee (DNC) has stated that it will cover the cost of the first lady’s flights, following the standard practice of reimbursing the government for political travel. The DNC has also indicated that it will reimburse the government for the cost of a first-class ticket for Jill Biden’s flights to and from Paris.
However, taxpayers will still bear the majority of the cost for the flights, which are estimated to be around $345,400. This includes the cost of the Air Force One crew, Secret Service agents, and other support staff.
The first lady’s office has stated that “the government is reimbursed the value of a first-class fare for these flights to Wilmington and back to Paris,” in accordance with regulations used by previous administrations.
The decision to reimburse the White House for Jill Biden’s flights comes as the Biden family faces increased scrutiny over Hunter Biden’s legal troubles. Hunter Biden is accused of lying about his drug addiction on a federal gun purchase form and illegally possessing a gun. The trial has been a source of controversy, with some Republicans accusing the Biden family of corruption and influence peddling.
The Democratic Party’s decision to reimburse the White House for Jill Biden’s flights is likely an attempt to mitigate the political fallout from Hunter Biden’s trial. However, it remains to be seen whether this will be enough to quell the criticism from Republicans and conservative media outlets
