Biden stays at donors' luxury beach house for free during St. Croix vacation
-
President Biden is staying for free for 6 nights at a luxury St. Croix beach house owned by wealthy donors Bill and Connie Neville. The house rents for over $6,000 on VRBO.
-
This follows criticism over Biden's free stays at donors' homes without disclosing them as gifts on ethics forms, unlike Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.
-
The Nevilles donated to Biden and hosted him before when he was vice president. They could not be reached for comment.
-
Biden also vacationed free last year at homes of billionaires in South Carolina, Nantucket, and Nevada without clarifying if he paid fair market value.
-
Ethics experts say Biden should disclose free vacations at donors' homes as gifts if the owners are not present, but he has failed to do so on annual forms.
