As much as $16 trillion has been spent worldwide to defeat global warming. It could have been twice that, and it would never be enough because the climate hustlers need to keep the dollars rolling in to line their own pockets. Now we finally have an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) chief who’s exposing the racket. [some emphasis, links added]
Testifying last week before a Senate committee, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin told lawmakers that the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund, a $27 billion stash that was created through the Biden administration’s Inflation Reduction Act, is a con.
His office found that money that was supposed to have some environmental benefit has been funneled “to former Obama and Biden officials” as well as Democratic donors.
“The conflicts of interest that we saw … the amount of self-dealing, the unqualified recipients … (the) Climate United Fund CEO was a special assistant in the Office of Management and Budget during the Obama-Biden administration … they received $6.9 billion,” said Zeldin, who, as a rational skeptic of the climate narrative, is finally the right man for the job.
He also told the committee that a Biden-Harris climate adviser served on the Coalition for Green Capital’s board, joining in 2023 while the organization was applying for federal funds.
He also reported that the chief executive of Power Forward Communities served as Fannie Mae’s CEO during the Obama-Biden administration.
“If we had 10 more minutes,” said Zeldin, “I could just go through conflicts of interest.”
One assumes it might take more than 10 minutes. The global warming scare has been an ongoing grift, a bursting slush fund for the political left for some time.
After the hearing, Zeldin continued his most-welcome broadside, posting on X that he was “done with the likes of AOC, Al Gore, John Kerry, and the rest of the lying cabal that make stupid climate predictions, plunder tens of billions of tax dollars, enrich their well-connected allies, and are committed to strangulating out of existence entire sectors of our economy.”
He finished by declaring “The GREEN NEW SCAM is DEAD!!!”
