I was concerned by a video of an EPA political appointee talking about tossing gold bars off the Titanic to distribute billions of dollars before inauguration day. The appointee mentioned getting money out fast before the new administration came in, referencing "gold bars" going to nonprofits, states, and tribes. I don't know what grants they were referencing, but they mentioned tossing gold bars off the Titanic to get jobs from recipient NGOs. They claimed to have given out tens of billions of dollars last year, including $50 million, or maybe $50 billion, for a Climate Bank, suggesting they could then go work for one of these organizations. I don't know what any of that's about, but it's concerning. I want to be a good steward of tax dollars.

Speaker 0: The seventy six day period is the time between when President Trump was elected and President Biden left office. Is that right? Speaker 1: Correct. During that period, from the loan program office in loans and commitments, $93,000,000,000 went out the door—well over twice as much as in the previous fifteen years. There were funds that went out the door and commitments made from businesses that provided no business plan and no numbers about their own financial solvency or how this project... Speaker 0: So you’re telling me that the Department of Energy, in the seventy six day period, before their boss was going to leave office, gave our loan money to entities that had no business plan? Correct. No financials? Speaker 1: Correct. I’ve come in with great concern about how this institution, Speaker 0: this great American institution has been run and how American taxpayer money has been handled. You’re going back through and checking each one of these loans and these grants to make sure there was no stealing, aren’t you? Speaker 1: We’re looking at that, and yes, my blood pressure is rising right now just thinking about what we have seen and what did happen at the moment. Gonna tell some of these boondoggles no, aren’t you? Speaker 0: That’s correct. I am. It’s rare that I’m speechless, but I want to be sure I understood. The people running the Department of Energy for President Biden’s administration shoveled $93,000,000,000 out the door in seventy six days, and it just happened to be the time between when President Trump was elected and President Biden, their boss, was leaving. Is that right? Speaker 1: It is correct and distasteful. Confidence undermining. My god.

The Loan Program Office supplied a little over $40 billion in its fifteen years. Almost $100 billion was then supplied in the 76 days between the election loss and President Trump's inauguration. The speaker questions why, if these were beneficial ideas, they weren't implemented in the two and a half years after the Inflation Reduction Act. According to the speaker, the previous administration changed terms and loan covenants, attempting to complicate unwinding their actions. The speaker asserts this is not a responsible way to handle taxpayer money or advance the energy system. They state that they inherited a mess, but it is fixable with an aggressive team. They claim American energy prices are down and investments to bring jobs back are up, but acknowledge the need for cleanup.

The focus is on quickly distributing funds before potential political changes. There's a sense of urgency, likening the situation to throwing gold bars off the Titanic. The discussion revolves around the implementation of Biden's Climate Law, with significant funding allocated—around $50 billion for climate banks and projects. Most funds are directed to local nonprofits that facilitate renewable energy initiatives. Concerns arise about a new administration potentially halting these grants, with a deadline set for January 20th. If funds aren't distributed by then, they could be stopped. The aim is to ensure that money reaches states, tribes, and cities effectively, while navigating the political landscape to secure ongoing support for climate initiatives.

I work in a federally grant-funded position, and at our recent department meeting, we discussed the ongoing impact of the federal funding freeze. Despite a judge blocking the freeze, the administration isn't fully compliant, leading to continued grant cancellations and freezes across various sectors. The initial day the funding portals were blocked significantly disrupted the funding schedules for numerous organizations. Furthermore, many projects are stalled due to the required removal of DEI language. This necessitates extensive rewrites of proposals that have been in progress for months. Essentially, it's a way to impede funding without an outright freeze by making the process extremely difficult.

As EPA Administrator, my top priority is to protect your tax dollars from waste and abuse. A disturbing video revealed a Biden EPA appointee seemingly wasting billions of dollars, which prompted my commitment to a full accounting. My team discovered roughly $20 billion of your tax dollars parked at an outside financial institution by the Biden EPA in an unprecedented scheme designed to rush funds with reduced oversight. This money was awarded to just eight entities, including nearly $7 billion to the Climate United Fund, raising questions about allocation decisions, recipients, and potential conflicts of interest. I want to be clear, there is zero reason to suspect any wrongdoing by the bank. The financial agent agreement with the bank needs to be instantly terminated, and the bank must immediately return all of the funds. EPA will reassume responsibility for all funds, review every expenditure, and refer the matter to the inspector general and Justice Department. The days of irresponsible spending on far-left activist groups are over. We will ensure a more transparent and accountable government.

During a 76-day period between President Trump's election and President Biden leaving office, the Department of Energy's loan program office made $93 billion in loans and commitments, more than double the amount from the previous 15 years. The secretary stated that many loans were given to entities lacking business plans or financial solvency information, some even before the 76-day period. The secretary acknowledged the possibility that some applicants lied or presented half-baked ideas to obtain funding. The department is now reviewing loans and grants for theft and incompetence, potentially denying funding to some projects. The department's budget increased significantly since fiscal year 2021. The secretary stated that the department is working to separate credible companies from those with insufficient plans. The department's headcount will be reduced by thousands, a move the secretary described as common sense business. He credited President Trump for empowering departments to make necessary changes to better serve taxpayers.

This is a green slush fund. The Biden administration parked $20 billion in an outside bank, giving it to eight NGOs, many created just to get this money. The EPA entered into an agreement with these entities, designed to tie the government's hands, so we don't know where the money is going. Only about 5% actually goes towards the environment. One CEO, serving on the White House Environmental Justice Council, received $20 million. Account control agreements were amended to reduce EPA oversight. The Justice Department and FBI are working with us, and we must ensure accountability. There should be zero tolerance for wasted money.

As EPA administrator, my top priority is to protect your tax dollars. A disturbing video showed a Biden appointee appearing to waste billions before inauguration day. My team discovered roughly $20 billion of your tax dollars parked at an outside financial institution by the previous administration. This unprecedented scheme awarded funds to eight entities responsible for distributing money with reduced transparency; almost $7 billion went to one entity, the Climate United Fund. We have serious questions about fund allocation and potential conflicts of interest. There is no reason to suspect wrongdoing by the bank, but the financial agreement must be terminated immediately, and the funds returned to EPA control. We will review all expenditures and refer the matter to the inspector general and the Justice Department. The days of irresponsible spending on activist groups are over. We are committed to transparency and accountability. We found the funds, and now we will regain control as we pursue next steps.

I work on environmental climate policy, focusing on implementation at the EPA. My work involves allocating the approved billions of dollars, ensuring the funds are used properly and create good jobs. Currently, the focus is on distributing the money as quickly as possible before the new administration takes over and potentially interferes. We're trying to get the money out to nonprofits, states, tribes, and cities before the inauguration on January 20th. After that date, the new administration could halt all grants and reevaluate the programs. The goal is to get the money to organizations that can continue the work, even if the government changes its policies.

The Inflation Reduction Act, nearly two years old, is being scrutinized for funding organizations perceived as radical and anti-American. Over $3 billion allocated through the EPA is reportedly going to groups that promote anti-police, anti-border security, and anti-Israel sentiments. Notable recipients include the Climate Justice Alliance and the NDN Collective, which advocate for defunding police and military. Concerns are raised about the lack of oversight and accountability in how taxpayer money is spent. Calls for increased scrutiny and potential defunding of these initiatives are emphasized, especially if there is a change in congressional control. The urgency to address these issues is highlighted, as the administration appears to be rushing to distribute funds before potential changes in leadership.

The speaker expresses disbelief that the Department of Energy under the Biden administration disbursed $93 billion in 76 days between President Trump's election and President Biden taking office. The speaker confirms with an interviewee that these funds were given to entities lacking business plans and financials. The speaker characterizes this as "distasteful" and "confidence undermining."

As EPA Administrator, my top priority is to protect your tax dollars from waste and abuse. A disturbing video revealed a Biden EPA appointee discussing the wasteful spending of billions of tax dollars, likening it to throwing "gold bars" (tax dollars) off the Titanic. My team discovered that roughly $20 billion was parked at an outside financial institution by the Biden EPA, a scheme designed to quickly obligate funds with reduced oversight. This money was awarded to just eight entities, who then distributed it to NGOs with less transparency. Almost $7 billion went to one entity, raising questions about fund allocation and potential conflicts of interest. While there's no suspicion of wrongdoing by the bank, the agreement must be terminated, and the funds returned to the EPA. We'll review all expenditures, refer the matter to the inspector general, and work with the Justice Department to ensure accountability.

I've issued a deadline for agencies to submit waste reduction plans. Failure to comply will result in tech support intervention, which is essentially what my team is doing – fixing outdated government computer systems. We aim to find a trillion dollars in savings to prevent national bankruptcy. Every agency will have a "mini Elon Musk" to justify spending. We're freezing government credit cards for 30 days and doing a pulse check via email to see if employees are real and responsive, we suspect some are dead or even fictional. Some people are upset with our aid to Ukraine which has been spent on things like fashion shows, wine, and cheese puffs. Providing money to LGBTQ individuals in Serbia is also coming under fire. Some are questioning the loyalty of Elon Musk because of this. The Biden years proved we don't even need an active president, because institutions are running everything behind the scenes.

This $20 billion "green slush fund" was set up by the Biden administration with money parked in an outside bank and given to eight NGOs, many newly created just to receive these funds. The EPA entered account control agreements with these entities, designed to limit federal oversight, allowing money to flow through multiple layers of pass-throughs to subgrantees. The funds aren't directly remediating environmental issues, but rather going to friends and those connected to the Obama and Biden administrations as well as donors. A CEO serving on Biden's White House Environmental Justice Council received $20 million for her organization while on the council. The EPA's oversight was further reduced through amended account control agreements right up to the inauguration, making it easier to pass through money unchecked.

During a congressional hearing, a senator questioned a secretary about the Department of Energy's spending. The senator highlighted that $93 billion in loans and commitments were issued in the 76-day period between President Trump's election and President Biden leaving office, more than double the amount from the previous 15 years. The secretary admitted that due diligence was likely not done in many cases, with funds going to entities lacking business plans or financial solvency. The secretary stated that they are reviewing loans and grants to check for stealing and incompetence. The senator expressed concern over potential "boondoggles" and hoped for referrals of "thieves" to the Department of Justice. The secretary also confirmed a planned reduction of several thousand employees, crediting President Trump for empowering departments to make necessary changes.

During the 76-day period between President Trump's election and President Biden leaving office, the Department of Energy's loan program office issued $93 billion in loans and commitments. This sum is reportedly over twice the amount disbursed in the previous fifteen years. These funds and commitments were allegedly given to businesses lacking business plans or proof of financial solvency. The Department of Energy purportedly gave taxpayer money to entities with no business plan or financials during this period. An investigation is underway to check each loan and grant for potential theft. The claim is that $93 billion was distributed in those 76 days.

According to the speaker, the previous administration changed terms and loan covenants, attempting to complicate any unwinding of their actions. The speaker characterizes this as irresponsible treatment of taxpayer money and detrimental to energy system progress. The speaker states that while they inherited a mess, it is fixable. They claim their team is aggressively addressing the issues, resulting in lower American energy prices and increased investments bringing jobs back to America.

These funds and commitments were allegedly given to businesses lacking business plans or proof of financial solvency.

There are concerns about how the institution was run and how taxpayer money was handled. Each loan and grant is being reviewed to ensure there was no stealing. The Department of Energy under President Biden's administration allegedly shoveled $93 billion out the door in 76 days, between President Trump's election and President Biden leaving.

Biden has committed to a 180-day, 100% match on recovery funds, raising questions about how this can be guaranteed with only 10 days left in his administration. This practice is common among administrations to address immediate needs after major disasters. The president has the legal authority to allocate these funds for recovery efforts. It's important to recognize the catastrophic impact on affected communities and ensure that the federal government does everything possible to support their recovery journey.

In April 2024, the Biden-Harris administration, through the EPA, allocated $7 billion to the United Climate Fund, part of a larger $20 billion Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund hidden within the Inflation Reduction Act. This money was funneled to Power Forward Communities, connected to Stacey Abrams, lacking transparency and accountability. An EPA official revealed this as an "insurance policy" against Trump winning the election, indicating a rushed cash dump. The $20 billion was stashed at Citibank but is now being reclaimed by the government. This isn't incompetence; it's calculated theft.

The speaker expresses disbelief that the Department of Energy allegedly spent $93 billion in the 76 days between President Trump's election and President Biden taking office. They clarify that the funds were disbursed as loans to entities lacking business plans or financial records. The speaker characterizes this as "distasteful" and "confidence undermining."
