“Mike Donilon, a top adviser to former President Biden, was paid about $4 million to work on the 2024 Biden campaign at the president’s insistence,” Axios reports.
“The sum was orders of magnitude higher than the pay for other top aides — campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon made $300,000 — and illustrates the standing held by Biden’s inner-most circle of advisers.
”“Many former Biden officials remain bitter at Donilon for making so much money and, in their view, guiding the campaign into disaster.”
