Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) spent $80,000 in campaign contributions on "fine dining, luxury lodging, private jets, and limos"
Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL), who is currently facing a barrage of scandals and ethics allegations, spent tens of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions on expenses like casino trips, limousines, and private jet charters, the conservative Washington Examiner reported on Friday.
"The reelection campaign for Mills ... spent nearly $80,000 on fine dining, luxury lodging, private jets, and limos between February 2023 and December 2024, a Washington Examiner review of campaign finance records found," said the report. "In addition to his campaign spending, Mills, who has an estimated net worth of over $20 million, took advantage of an optional program intended to help less well-off members of Congress afford the high cost of maintaining a second residence in D.C., billing taxpayers for over $15,000 in lodging and meal expenses during the first half of 2025."
Additionally, flagged Roger Sollenberger of The Daily Beast, "Mills’s campaign filings this year have also effectively hidden more than $14,000 in donor refunds — reporting them only as negative donations instead of listing them on the 'refund' line."
This follows an avalanche of other bad press that has followed Mills this year, including an allegation that he physically abused a woman he was involved with; an eviction from his Washington, D.C. penthouse for failing to pay $85,000 in back rent; an ethics investigation in Congress for unprofessional conduct, stolen valor, and failing to disclose gifts; and a report that Mills hired a number of sex workers during his mission in Afghanistan.

They love living off the taxpayer's dime.
