It\u2019s only a tiny part of the Monster Swamp but it captures the spirit of bald-faced looting that was The US bloated Government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The US voters voted to cut government spending on November 5th, so the obvious thing for Democrats to do was \u2014 the exact opposite.\u00a0In the last days of the Biden pillage-n-steal campaign about $20 billion dollars was \u201callocated\u201d to the EPA and parked in a bank account. Presumably in the hope of keeping the NGO activists of \u201cclimate\u201d alive through the dark days of Trumpian hell. It may also have been a way to pay off friends, or stash funds for nice post-Trump career opportunities, who knows? But it was all a bit of a panic, and the aid was jetting out through a fire hose. So much so, that, one community group with only a $100 in revenue, was given two whole billion dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2025\/02\/19\/us-news\/zeldin-epa-discovers-2-billion-biden-admin-stashed-away-for-stacey-abrams-linked-climate-group\/?utm_source=sailthru&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=news_alert&amp;utm_content=20250219?&amp;utm_source=sailthru&amp;lctg=607d8ed870302947037deb56&amp;utm_term=NYP%20-%20News%20Alerts\"><em><strong>New York Post<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The funds were set aside at an outside financial institution \u2014 Citibank \u2014 before Biden left office and part of a larger,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2025\/02\/12\/us-news\/lee-zeldin-demands-return-of-20b-parked-at-a-financial-institution-by-biden-epa-to-dole-out-to-climate-groups\/\">$20 billion pot of money<\/a>&nbsp;the former president\u2019s EPA received through the Inflation Reduction Act to dole out to climate groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt\u2019s extremely concerning that an organization that reported just $100 in revenue in 2023 was chosen to receive $2 billion,\u201d EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin told the outlet, referring to Power Forward Communities\u2019 latest tax filings.&nbsp;<strong>\u201cThat\u2019s 20 million times the organization\u2019s reported revenue.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The $2 billion was part of a $20 billion dollar spray that was supposed to go towards eight different NGO\u2019s with instantly forgettable names like\u00a0<em>Power Forward Communities<\/em>, and the Cl<em>imate United Fund.<\/em>\u00a0In the world of teenage protestors, and B-grade scientists it\u2019s a massive amount of money. Think how many hack modelers someone could employ to churn out meaningless papers with headlines like \u201cClimate change is making crocodiles hotter\u201d?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In theory, some of the money was supposedly going to \u201cdecarbonize\u201d low income houses, which nearly as useless. In the end, a few poor people get to pay tax to employ a bureaucrat who spends their own money buying them a solar panel they wouldn\u2019t have bought, which achieves nothing they didn\u2019t have cheaper twenty years ago, but flows right on through to improve the solar stock options of some friends of the bureaucrats. It\u2019s just a form of servitude. The poor get green electrons they didn\u2019t want, and the only lives that are enriched are in the bureaucracy and insiders at the stock exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To truly appreciate the soul sucking nature of the looting it\u2019s worth revisiting the words of the young EPA staffer two months ago, who casually bragged about the wild spending of \u201c$50 billion dollars\u201d&nbsp; in the last days of the Biden era bonfire:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>\u201d&nbsp;It truly feels like we\u2019re on the Titanic and we\u2019re throwing,&nbsp;like, gold bars off the edge\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.projectveritas.com\/brave\">Project Veritas<\/a>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.projectveritas.com\/news\/epa-advisor-admits-insurance-policy-against-trump-is-gold-bars-off-titanic\">got undercover footage of Brent Efron (seen in the video below)<\/a>, who gloated that the money was being stuffed into NGO\u2019s as \u201can insurance policy against Trump\u201d. He giving it to NGO\u2019s was so much better than spending it on government programs, because that way, it\u2019s harder for the Trump administration to get it back. (We can see how much they care about the voters.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He went on to say that he might work for one of these places \u201cit would be really cool\u201d. So the EPA worker and his colleagues were potentially stashing the money for their future careers. There\u2019s a word for that\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fortunately, the new head of the EPA, Lee Zeldin, has the receipts, and wants the money back:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2025\/02\/12\/us-news\/lee-zeldin-demands-return-of-20b-parked-at-a-financial-institution-by-biden-epa-to-dole-out-to-climate-groups\/\">Lee Zeldin demands return of $20B<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>New York Post<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe financial agent agreement with the bank needs to be instantly terminated, and the bank must immediately return all of the gold bars that the Biden administration tossed off the Titanic,\u201d he argued\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The saying \u201clike Gold Bars off the Titanic\u201d will become legend, so if you missed this video in early December, watch it now.
