    Remember, for the GOP, tax funds exist only to be looted by political cronies… if the money is being spent on things that actually benefit taxpayers, then there is less for them to loot, which they won’t abide.

      Just for GOP?

      Have you ever heard of NY governor who had his family member get paid 4k per bed per month in NYC by the state to “save the homeless”

        You’re right. It’s a trait of all conservatives.

    Every year governments (federal, state, local, municipal, etc) should have to release a ledger of all taxes collected and their distribution.

    The organization, funded entirely by taxpayers, has collected roughly $7 million in government funding since 2017, while paying out at least $830,000 in salaries to Hill, Robinson and other members of their family, tax filings and state documents show.

    That’s $120k/year if it was to a single person, but it’s to several. Feels like a non-story, he’s clearly not getting rich off of this.
