The Sanders Institute. It's a thing I guess. A thing for Bernie and family. Didn't we just go through this same scenario where the wife Jane headed up the local college and was under FBI investigation for passing big contracts to the daughter. Heh. There is a little bit of Burisma in all those dems.
Democrat Bernie Sanders Caught Handing $200k In Campaign Donor Money To Family
Bernie Sanders, the self-described Democratic Socialist senator from Vermont whose promises to the poor and destitute made him a millionaire, was recently caught doing the most millionaire-type thing possible – funneling money to the Sanders Institute, the nonprofit organization run by his wife Jane O’Meara Sanders and his stepson David Driscoll.
Campaign reports filed by Sanders shows that he donated a total of $200,000, from his campaign fund to the Sanders Institute. Half of the nearly quarter-million-dollar donation was made in January, and the other half of the donation was made in March.
The $200,000 represents the most money Sanders gave to any single organization during this election cycle. Ironically, after employer taxes are considered, most of the $200,000 donation would cover Driscoll’s $153,000 annual salary and benefits, with a little left over.
Despite being worth an estimated $3 million and owning three homes – not bad for a socialist! – Sanders has always been a vocal critic of wealthy people. In 2021, Sanders joined fellow progressive senators in introducing the Tax Excessive CEO Pay Act. At the bill’s introduction, Sanders said, “At a time of massive income and wealth inequality, the American people are demanding that large, profitable corporations pay their fair share of taxes and treat their employees with the dignity and respect they deserve. That is what this legislation will begin to do.”
