Joe Biden's closest advisors have ties to big business and Wall Street. In some cases, they have made millions in their past corporate dealings.

These disclosures were provided by the White House to CNBC early Saturday morning after requesting the documents a day earlier.

These disclosures show that many of the president's closest aides have deep ties to the business world and have made more money in their past corporate careers than previously known. O'Malley Dillon, who ran Biden's campaign before following him to the White House, was a co-founder of the consulting firm Precision Strategies. The founders of the firm are credited with helping reelect Obama in 2012.

He will needs people who have an understanding of Wall Street. They are advisers of something they know about. Why is this an issue?

Thanks, but this is not really news to me.....

Biden sure acts like he does not even know what the stock market is.

Why is a story given the long list of absurdly wealthy WS crackpots who served throughout the Trump administration?

Politics is broke as fuck !

Democrat voters reaction under Trump: Trump and GOP are rich elitists out of touch. Democrats reaction under Biden: Who cares. hypocrisy

Ya think!?! lol big news is that you publish it.

Really ? I'm Shocked.

SURPRISE

That's why the stock market is not stable. 🤣🤣🤣

Nice to know one of Biden's advisors is/was a board member of Facebook. Interesting. The hypocrisy continues. duped votesmarter

Good!! after all our democracy is supported by capitalism

Yeah thanks. We told you that months ago. Nice work tho

And what policy has he enacted to date that has benefited these advisers?

Chicken Joe will kneel. China will win, and win again

Hopefully we will make money too.

Scammer look at this guy can’t even walk shows weakness

Say it ain't so?! Joes a centrist. No shit lol

Do you think we did not realize that long ago. It is one more feature in American politics that has us repeatedly questioning wealth inequalities when it is usually those without wealth who question them.

Another shocker from the CNBC wizards

American lives — money.

So he has advisers who actually have a clue,not some random radiologist or pillow guy.Good to know.....

They all crooks

Cool. Glad you're holding him and his people to account. Now, be sure you run features on all Trump's creatures and all the GOP swamp creatures.

Course he does. They all do & trump was no exception. This is USA sponsored by Corporations

Yeah exactly. Lets all pretend like we didnt already know he’s been a loser pos for nearly 5 decades. morons

Yea have you not seen how market been acting up lately. Fucking up everything

The Democrats elected a squirrel feeder.

Weird

Everyone in a position of power and influence has rich friends. It’s an occupational hazard! 😳🤣

People made huge profits on the short way....very fast but it is all the foult of wsb!😂😂

Name one president that has no ties

. Politicans Buy shares with inside information. Who is rich with the stimuli? Who expects more stimuli for stocks to rise? Who makes the laws? .

How is this news?

What about politicans Buy shares with inside information? Who is rich with stimuli? They take the control all .

He should surround himself with only poor people because they got life right

🌈🐻

Oh please.

Of course they are? Biden and democrats talk a big game but they are the same corporate party, just out to help a different circle of friends. I can assure you POTUS does not actually care about the people, nor does the majority of his administration. Money is 1, 2, 3 and 4.

But we’re is that elusive laptop and has the president been compromised with China do they call him Baizuo and we are sending our troops overseas again

And?

Liberals with money must scare the crap out of the GOP. Poor old George Soros now has company for the conspiracy idiots. What is the world coming to? It's coming to the end of the GOP as a major party. What a year! NRA bankrupt and the GOP in the Looney Tunes. Life is good!!

News flash, every career politician has a line of lobbyist giving them money for policy concessions. Dems and Reps

And this is a surprise to anyone? He is a politician.... what did you expect? Every single one of them has interests in companies that are publicly traded. If you think that doesn’t have affect on their decision making... well someone else can help you...

schwartzbCNBC WTF. This is disgraceful, I thought only Republican administrations hired people from businesses, and democrats hired a bunch of unemployed activists. This is a huge story. Great reporting.

I’m shocked to see cnbc running a story critical of the Biden administration

I’m shocked! Next you are going to tell me there is gambling going on too. Nobody is going to be elected president without prior vetting by Wall Street and AIPAC.

Like Trump’s guys

OMG...people made MILLIONS? It's like we live in a capitalist society of something!

Let us know when Biden visits his hotels and puts security up at taxpayer expense.

schwartzbCNBC This article only makes sense if it includes information about these employees’ recusals.

stevekovach Stupid, ridiculous, story. Stop it.

Not a fan of Biden...but do idiots in this country really think that someone is going to be president without being advised by successful businessmen/women? Would you rather them be advised by Lil’ Jay hanging out on the corner selling weed?

This is why I never liked Democrats. They use tax the rich and save the poor propaganda to get votes and brainwash the working class saying this time it’s different. Both parties are the same crap and controlled by Wall Street but each one has different “marketing” tactics.

Water is wet.

Name one president in the last 75 years who hasn’t

Fish have ties to water

Ur kidding right ? I mean where were these stories beginning 4 years ago?

So socialists aren't taking over?

Shocker news flash sun rises in east sets in West

I’m sure all Republican and Democratic Presidents have advisors (their economic advisers)that were connected to Big financial firms on Wall Street! I don’t understand why this is a bad thing on either side politically!

Lemme guess, it's all Trump's fault. 🙄

No sheeet scherlock

Shocking!! Don’t they all? Who f’ing cares?

Naturally including him

That’s how fascism works

wait wait, is this the first negative article on Biden since election? do my eyes deceive me?

This could be said about Trump, Obama, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Reagan...okay, maybe not Carter so much.

Do they have ties and or support Putin?

Great! He can talk directly with them about taking care of their employees

Gasp. You don’t say

I’m sure this is true about all modern day presidents.

Mickey Mouse would better than the last twat we had as POTUS. Biden could hire mini mouse and do a better job than Trump,

So what. What are the rules for them?

OTOH you don’t want a leader who has no connection to business. That’s what makes our economy spin!

It really would be nice if there was a separate governing body that policed this stuff.

After 45, this ain’t shit.

No shit. How did you guys figure this out? Did you expect him to hire small business owners and college kids as top advisors? It has always been like that in every country

Politicians cater to their elitist friends before the people. This won’t change

This is such a dumb article! Who’s your target audience? 👎🏼

And do we care...nope not at all. As long as he's trying to keep his promises to the American people and doesn't have Neo-Nazis, Proud Boys, Oath Keepers and White Supremacists around him, many of us don't give a sh*t. Stop trying to make drama happen.

Cue the Trump whataboutism. Libs didn’t have a problem with these type of articles the past 4 years...

Career politicians attract $$.

What is the purpose of this article? If you work in a big business and Wall Street, the purpose is to make as much money as you can, right? There is no pre-requisite that POTUS advisors must be poor and work 40 hours at McDonalds making $7.50/hour. 🤷‍♂️

It would appear that would apply to every politician in Washington.

As long as they don’t think pyramids are grain elevators we should be good.

schwartzbCNBC Do they have ties to the proud boys or any other paramilitary white supremacy nazi organizations like the “former’s” advisers?

Everyone in Govt has ties to bussiness and Wall St

Fcking unreal . After the last 4 years....

Name anyone anywhere close to power that doesn’t have ties to big business and Wall Street?

CNBC is in bed with the finacial industry to screw retail investors out of hard earned money

State Capitalism

And this is why the virus continues to go on and on and on because money comes first! screw the middle class and the poor people

...gasp.... After four years of the crooks running the White House (and you looking the other way) I don't care about your Biden smears.

CNBC trying to be Fox Business.

Yawn…

Isn’t that just called Government?

After Trump no one gives a shit. Not...one...shit.

Duh.

Rex Tillerson was a legit CEO

Not nearly as bad as trump!

Biden was in the bottom 25% of his Undgrad History Class at Delaware U. From there he Magically gets into Syracuse Law and rises to the bottom 10% of his Law Class. Less than one year later he is Hired by MBNA to be Their Senator from Delaware. Biden is a Corporate Thug.

So? They're not domestic terrorists like maga is so it's fine

Oh god, can you imagine if a President had rich people around him? That has never happened before.
