The Chamber’s supervisory committee hears Biden Ally expected of $ 4 million for 2024 victory

A long -standing ally of former president Joe Biden told investigators from the house’s supervisory committee that he could have paid a total of $ 8 million if the former president won his re -election offer in 2024, a familiar source said with the conversation at Fox News Digital.

Michael Donilon was a special advisor to the President for the entire Mandate of Biden four years. However, their relationship goes back decades; Donilon worked for the first time for Biden in 1981 when he was an American senator from Delaware.

He is the last head of the Biden administration to sit with the closed -door committee while he examines whether the inner circle of the former president has aroused evidence of his alleged mental decline, and if the executive actions were signed via Autopen without conscience of Biden.

Donilon said he didn’t know what the autopen was for and did not remember knowing the autopen, the source told Fox News Digital.

But Donilon, who was the best strategist for Biden campaigns in 2020 and 2024, would have apparently won some $ 8 million in total if Biden won.

Donilon told investigators that he had been paid $ 4 million to work on the Biden 2024 campaign, the source said. This information was reported by the Axios journalist, Alex Thompson, and the host of CNN Jake Tapper in their book “Original Sin: President Biden of the Decline, his concealment and his disastrous choice to run again”.

The $ 4 million he would have acquired would have come if Biden had won in 2024.

Biden sadly abandoned the 2024 race after his disastrous debate against Donald Trump in June of the same year, after weeks of increasing pressure by Democratic colleagues, both in public and private.

Donilon told investigators that he “believed that the expert and the Democrats of the Congress reacted excessively after Joe Biden’s disastrous debate,” said the source. Donilon also argued that Biden’s communication skills “have become stronger” during his president’s time, added the source.

“During his interview, Mr. Donilon admitted that the presence of Joe Biden was not as commissioned, and he could come across more words. Mr. Donilon said he was frustrated and knew that it was difficult to overcome the visuals of President Biden that people saw,” said the source.

In his declaration of opening, obtained by Fox News Digital, Donilon underlined his 40-year relationship with Biden and presented the achievements of the democratic administration through the Pandemic COVID-19, the rebound in employment growth in its wake and the law on the reduction of inflation and other legislative victories.

“I was with President Joe Biden of his first day of mandate on the last day. What I saw, day after day, was a leader who was deeply committed and commanding critical questions, at home and abroad,” said Donilon in his declaration.

“Each president is aging on the four years of a presidency and President Biden also did it, but he also continued to become stronger and wiser as a leader following his test by some of the most difficult challenges to which a president has ever encountered.

“I thought that this experience was extremely precious for the nation. I thought that President Biden was the best person to direct the country the day he was sworn in and I continued to believe that it was true every day, he was president.”

Donilon is the eighth former head of the White House to appear for the investigation led by the chairman of the James Comer Chamber’s supervisory committee, R-KY.

A familiar source with the thought of the Biden team previously called the “dangerous” Republican probe and “an attempt to dirty and embarrassment”.

“And their hope is that one inconsistency between witnesses to appear so that Trump’s GM continues his political opponents and will continue his revenge campaign,” said the source.

Fox News Digital contacted Donilon’s lawyer and a Biden representative to comment.
