Throwing Gold Bars Off the Titanic, By Charles Taylor (Florida)
This is something Elon Musk in the Trump administration DOGE needs to look into in terms of the waste of money and corruption. Here are some key quotes from Brent Efron, Special Advisor for Implementation, US Environmental Protection Agency:
"Now it's how to get the money out as fast as possible before they [Trump Administration] come in ... it's like we're on the Titanic and we're throwing gold bars off the edge."
"Over the last year we've given out $50 billion dollars for climate things…so to go work for one of these places would be really cool."
"We gave them [nonprofits] the money because… it was an insurance policy against Trump winning. Because they aren't [a government agency], they're safer from Republicans taking the money away."
So committed are these staffers, Efron confesses, that they plan to work right up until the final moments on inauguration day, rushing to ensure that every possible tax-payer dollar is disbursed before a Republican administration can turn off the spigot.
"It's until the Trump people come in and tell us we can no longer give out money. That's at the very earliest the 20th [January 2025]. But it's probably a little bit after because they have to get in the building and tell people what to do."
Efron predicts that the Trump administration will swiftly issue an order to block all grants, with Congress potentially trying to claw back the EPA's funding. Anticipating this, he reveals that the EPA has been working to funnel money to aligned nonprofits capable of implementing climate change policies at the local level, viewing it as an "insurance policy" against the upcoming Trump presidency."
tI would be a good idea to close down the Environmental Protection Agency, which is little more than a Left-wing ideology machine for burning money. It may be possible to prosecute those who were acting to throw taxpayer's money into the stormy waters of climate change nonsense. At least put these people on the dole lines.
