While having a member of the Biden Crime Family involved in a scandal is about as unique a news story as “Dog Bites Man,” this particular case is a little bit different. Well, a lot different, because it involves a Biden family member we don’t hear much about. According to reports, a charity under the management of this particular Biden family member has been hit with a complaint alleging the organization has been dodging its tax obligations for years.
Ashley Biden, daughter of the former president, failed to ensure that $500,000 in donations were properly disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service in a timely manner, according to a letter released Monday by a conservative watchdog group. While Daddy Joe Biden was still in office, Ashley launched a walk-in trauma recovery center in Philadelphia in 2023 aimed at supporting women facing mental health challenges. The center, named the Women’s Wellness Spa(ce), received $500,000 in initial funding from several high-profile philanthropists, including the foundation founded by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, as well as the Silicon Valley Community Foundation.
According to IRS Form 990 filings, each nonprofit reported contributing $250,000 to Ashley Biden’s initiative that year. However, the Women’s Wellness Spa(ce) reported significantly less in its own filings, stating it received just $170,296 in total contributions and did not list any single donation exceeding $5,000. Ashley Biden signed the documents as president, under penalty of perjury. Paul Kamenar, an attorney with the National Legal and Policy Center—the group that filed the complaint—said they are seeking to determine whether any additional undisclosed income was received by Ashley Biden’s organization. He also called on the IRS to consider potential sanctions.
“Ashley Biden’s failure to disclose to the IRS receiving $500,000 in grants in 2023 raises the question of what other contributions is she hiding,” Kamenar told the Washington Free Beacon.
Tax controversies have plagued multiple members of the Biden family. Hunter Biden, Ashley’s brother, was slated to stand trial on tax fraud charges in 2024 before receiving a full and unconditional pardon from President Biden. The pardon covered an 11-year period during which Hunter was accused of concealing millions in income while working with foreign corporations. Other family members reportedly benefited from these ventures as well. James Biden, the president’s brother, and his wife, Sarah, were among those who received income from the business dealings. All were granted pardons—except Ashley.
Greg Mangasarian, an accountant with Women’s Wellness Spa(ce), explained that most of the $500,000 in donations would not be distributed until 2024 and that this would be accurately reflected in the organization’s latest tax filings. “The Women’s Wellness Space received $150,000 in 2023 and will report the balance in 2024,” Mangasarian said.
Nice try, Greg. Despite the explanation, Mangasarian noted that his office follows the accrual method of accounting, which requires donations to be recorded and reported as they are received—not just during tax season. Kamenar’s watchdog group contends that if the IRS determines Ashley Biden’s charity misreported its 2023 revenue, she could ultimately face financial penalties, which, of course, would only add to the fact that the Bidens are close to being, if not actually being, the most corrupt family ever to occupy the White House.
