1. How much would be spent on Secret Service lodging otherwise?

What other expenses would there be if the arrangement wasn't possible?

2. Reads like a hit piece on the Biden Vice Presidency

These SS have to live somewhere and would it be proper for the vice to not rent this cottage to them and let someone else collect the rent for them elsewhere to be housed. Looks to me like the writer is only interested in smearing not in reporting.

Piss on the writer, (whatever the hell his name is) and the newspaper that printed this non story.
Joe Biden in his honesty is one of the best Vice Presidents we could ever hope for. I'm happy to have him where he is and don't worry for a second about anything he may or may not do. Good man is he.
