Joey Accused of Using Campaign Funds for Personal Book Printer
A tipster known as American Cupcake revealed Joey is allegedly spending $60 a month of campaign funds on a leased printer to print out his personal book manuscript.
During the stream, a donor known as American Cupcake dropped a bombshell claim that Joey is spending $60 a month of campaign funds on a leased printer, which he is allegedly using to print out his personal book manuscript. The hosts expressed disbelief at the arrangement, questioning why someone would lease a printer for $60 a month rather than simply buying one outright for the same price. "Couldn't you buy a printer for 60 bucks? Like a little Canon PF whatever the [] Yeah, like a little travel printer. That seems insane," one host remarked. The hosts noted that American Cupcake is one of the most obsessive followers of Joey's activities, second only to Roachi, lending credibility to the claim. "If there's someone who follows Joey more autistically than Roachi, it is American Cupcake. So, I do believe you, Cupcake," the host stated. The allegation raises questions about whether Joey is improperly commingling campaign funds with personal projects, specifically his book manuscript. The discussion also touched on Joey's broader fundraising tactics, with hosts suggesting he uses a "tip jar method" with offline donations to artificially pump up hype. "You just be like, 'Oh, someone else donated 500 bucks. Everyone should get in on this. Things are getting kind of crazy,'" one host explained, adding that the money is ultimately being raised so Joey can create a comedy special despite having been a comedian for years with seemingly little demand for his content.
