Under park service rules, the lodge is maintained for use by federal employees for training and official conferences and for those on temporary duty in the park. In practice, the superintendent of Grand Teton National Park, who has discretion over whether to demand payment for the lodge, has interpreted those rules to allow extended family vacations if there is an element of official business involved. I'll wait to see what official business is claimed.

Come on. The Central Committee of the Communist Party deserves its perks. Think how hard they’re working to destroy this country. It’s gotta be exhausting.

You’re not going to have time to do all that, so you’re going to have to give something up. I’d suggest giving up the “death” part.

Yellowstone is my favorite place ever. Going again for the tenth time. I would be happy to die there and never go anywhere else.

Three bank robbers are nabbed by police as they’re leaving the bank they just robbed. They hand the money to the cops and say Here. This is reimbursement for the money we just stole. Cop says Okay. Thanks. Have a nice day. (From Adventures in Liberal Land)

No kidding. It would be well worth the taxpayer’s money to keep Biden and Obama there 365 days a year. It would free them up from all their “work”.
To: Second Amendment First
I’m fine with it but only if Biden promises to go and never come back.

I don’t have a problem with this...Better that the property is used rather than just sit there and just waste away...Could you imagine Biden vacationing at Disney World?
They would have to give Goofy the week off...

$25 a night for four nights? I use to stay at a smelly as motel in Zanesville Ohio on hunting trips 25 years ago and paid $50 a night and the view was let’s just say less than awesome. All the Kings men sure have it nice today.

Wow. Not a bad deal for 12 people for 4 nights. Comes to $25 per person per night.
I'm sure Biden left a lot of empty bottles laying around, I wonder how much it cost us to send a vice-presidential clean-up crew afterwards.
Corruption is a hallmark of this administration, isn't it?

National Park Service - another government agency that needs to be reigned in and cut in size. It’s full of bureaucratic a-holes who think their god.
