It is common knowledge. Presidents do not pay for or give boarding to the SS. When Biden was VP the SS stayed in his guest house which was rented by the SS for his entire term, as I recall the rent was 2,800 per month. When I get near a computer I will send a link if you are still in doubt.

I found this from Snopes,

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/landlords-of-misrule/
It goes back a while and is about Clinton. The google search is difficult as every query returns 99% Trump related charges of ripping off the country so I can understand the difficulty in getting an answer. The answer is near the bottom of the article.

Happy New Year.

-Bi partisan support
- 5% more than 2021
- $300 million for the Ukraine Security Assistance
- $7.1 billion for the Pacific Deterrence Initiative and a statement of congressional support for the defense of Taiwan,
- 16-member commission to study the war in Afghanistan.
- 2.7% military pay raise


So we are running at close to a real inflation rate of 10% and those who put their lives on the line to protect this country get a 2.9% pay raise... Demonics at their best!

A 21 year old article doesn’t count .
Congress authorizing payment does not mean a president charged anything

This the part that I wanted you to read, it explains why many presidents have been paid for use of their properties to board Secret Service and the presidents staff.

It is a standard arrangement that the Secret Service provide payment to homeowners for space used by the agency in such situations. The Clintons did not take it upon themselves to “charge the Secret Service rent.”

The amount provided is based on a government formula, not set by the homeowner, and in the Clintons’ case this amount was $1,100. (Note that this figure was not chosen by the Clintons, and it was well short of their monthly mortgage payment.)

Most important, although regulations call for the payment of this amount, the Clintons did not in fact accept any money from the Secret Service.

This link is about Biden as VP.
https://radio.foxnews.com/2015/04/14/the-vice-presidents-lucrative-deal-with-the-secret-service/



It is standard practice to pay the President for use of his private lodging by the Secret Service, the govt sets the price not the president and it is determined by the local standards.

The real argument is not about the practice but the price paid, see above.

From you Fox News link not mine

Former President George W. Bush traveled often during his eight years in office to his ranch in Crawford, Texas. During that time Secret Service personnel stayed gratis in guest quarters on the Bush compound.
