Joe Biden at 2024 Christmas tree lighting ceremony
In September, it was revealed that Joe Biden wants to build his presidential library in Delaware. At the time, we suggested that raising the money for this project was going to be a challenge for him.
We were right about this, of course. The New York Times is now reporting that the Biden library foundation did not bring in a single new donation in the entire year of 2024. They have not shared their information for 2025, which suggests it probably was not much better.
This project seems pointless on its face. What is going to be featured in the library? The autopen? Pictures of thousands of people rushing the southern border?
From the New York Times:
Biden Has Raised Little of What He Needs to Build a Presidential Library
Former President Joseph R. Biden Jr. has raised only a small fraction of the money needed to construct a presidential library, leaving uncertainty about when a library might be built and its viability as a stand-alone project, according to public filings and interviews with his donors.
In filings with the Internal Revenue Service, Mr. Biden’s library foundation revealed that it had not received any new donations in 2024, the final year of his presidency. The foundation was instead seeded entirely with $4 million left over from his 2021 inauguration.
The library foundation declined to say what it had raised in 2025. It said that Mr. Biden was only now beginning to actively raise money. He is holding the first event for potential library donors on Monday in Washington’s Georgetown neighborhood.
Still, Mr. Biden’s foundation told the I.R.S. this year that it expected to bring in just $11.3 million, total, by the end of 2027. That would be far below the pace set by other recent presidents, and far less than the $200 million that Mr. Biden’s aides say they want to raise eventually.
Why aren’t Democrats lining up to donate? Didn’t they tell us Biden was great?
Dems: Biden was greatest president of our lifetimes and deserves to be on Mt. Rushmore.Biden: Hey, can you spare some change for my library?
Dems: ***crickets*** https://t.co/OGwV5rEqag

Perhaps Hunter could sell some artwork to help raise money.
I’m old enough to remember when his paintings sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars each.

They all had nothing but praise for Biden while he was president. Why aren’t they giving money?
