I'd feel bad about afterwards, but that's the best part!

DeSantis lays off staffers as his campaign burns through nearly half its funds for the Republican primary (msn.com)
DeSantis initially amassed an impressive $20 million in donations during the first six weeks of his campaign. But The New York Times reports that the campaign has already spent about $8 million of that — leaving the team with just $9 million left to spend on the primary. The remaining $3 million can only be spent in the general election in the event DeSantis wins the Republican nomination, according to the Times.
A report by the New York Times on Saturday revealed Ron DeSantis's lavish travel habits — which often include private air travel.
DeSantis, who just announced he's running for president, has flown on several private jets owned by his political supporters. The jets include a Bombardier twin-jet and a Gulfstream jet, according to NYT's report.
DeSantis' use of private jets is controversial. The majority of his career has been spent in public service and he reported a net worth of $319,000 last year, per NYT. As that's not enough to afford frequent flights on private jets, DeSantis depends on supporters to fund these travels.
DeSantis, who's the governor of Florida, acknowledged his frequent use of private jets, but insists that it's "all legal, ethical, no issues there," reported NYT.
Since the report, more details about DeSantis's flight data began to emerge. Jack Sweeney, a college student who tracks Elon Musk's private jet's flight data on his Twitter account, told Insider's Sam Tabahriti that he has started to track DeSantis's air travel too.
The plane in question is a Cessna Citation Latitude, a business jet manufactured by Rhode Island-based Textron Aviation. Records from the Federal Aviation Administration show that the plane is owned by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. As the jet is government-owned, DeSantis may not be the only one who flies on the plane, Sweeney said in a Twitter post on Sunday.
Take a look inside the Cessna Citation Latitude, similar to the one used by DeSantis. The jet shown in the photos is designed with standard configurations, so there may be differences in interiors.
DeSantis did not immediately respond to Insider's requests for comment.
While DeSantis can continue raising money, $14 million of that total came from large donors who gave the maximum legal amount to his campaign and can't donate again, NBC News reports. And with small donations proving to be a challenge for several Republican candidates, according to NBC News, future fundraising efforts may not be as fruitful for DeSantis.
The Times called DeSantis' finances and team downsizing an "ominous" sign for his chances in the Republican primary, especially as he trails candidates like former President Donald Trump in public polls.
With only a little more than half his funds left, DeSantis' campaign laid off several employees. While the Times reports the exact number is unknown, one staffer told the outlet it was fewer than 10 people. Payroll is one of the campaign's largest expenses, coming in at $1 million to pay about 90 staffers.
Other costly expenditures include DeSantis' travel budget, which came in at $1.3 million, as well as expenses for an online donation-processing company, which cost almost $1 million.
