We hear that guests included big donors and Biden’s cabinet, as well as friends and others who have been super-supportive of the Bidens through the years. Former and current ambassadors came in for the elite event.

It seems only a couple of weeks ago they were talking about the failed campaign having spent $1.0 billion. Will this figure continue to grow?
