    Still not ready to give up on this nonsense? Are you doing that intentionally?

    Almost certainly.

    Joe Biden’s brother told executives at a healthcare firm that the former vice president’s cancer initiative would promote their business, according to a participant in the conversation, who said the promise came as part of a pitch on behalf of potential investors in the firm.
    The allegation is the latest of many times Biden’s relatives have invoked the former vice president and his political clout to further their private business dealings. It is the first that involves the Biden Cancer Initiative, a project Joe Biden made the centerpiece of his post-White House life following the death of his son Beau.

    No you aren't. You're citing a Right Wing nonsense site, with information that isn't even close to being accurate. As I pointed out, the charity raised over $400 million, so the $2 million you cite in admin. costs is a tiny fraction of what was raised. Not the number you cited.

    I don't mind if you pander to the others on the board who don't have the capacity to fact check you.

    I just prefer to get the facts out.

That’s entirely consistent with their stated entirely legitimate charitable functions. They’re were never intended to be a grant-giving organization.

    The OP isn't interested, and neither is his fan club.

    What you prefer is not my concern.
