A 26-year-old Trump-backed congressional candidate appears to be fueling his campaign with trust-fun
Bo Hines, a Republican congressional hopeful in North Carolina, recently revealed that the majority of his campaign money appears to have come from his own trust fund.
As a young candidate without much political experience, Hines is self-funding the majority of his campaign. According to the Federal Election Commission, he's loaned just over $775,000 of his own money to the campaign, or about 58% of his entire campaign war chest.
But in a personal financial disclosure first noted by Axios' Lachlan Markay, Hines lists having no job, no bank account, no other earned income or compensation, and zero loans or liabilities.
The sole asset he reported owning was his share of the "Hines Children's Trust." The filing reveals that Hines withdrew up to $1 million from the trust in 2022 and up to $100,000 in 2021.

And thanks to a recent decision involving Ted Cruz our Extreme Court has said it's okay if donors reimburse his campaign costs once he's elected.
