Climate Hustle: EPA Advisor Admits Sending Billions To Climate Groups Before Trump Takes Office

An EPA advisor, Brent Efron, was secretly recorded admitting the Biden administration is rapidly distributing billions in taxpayer funds to climate organizations. This action is described as an "insurance policy" against the incoming Trump administration's potential spending cuts. Efron compared the strategy to "throwing gold bars off the Titanic," highlighting the urgency of the money distribution. The funds are channeled to nonprofits, states, and tribes, aiming to secure them before a change in administration. Efron explicitly linked the Inflation Reduction Act to this effort, emphasizing the use of aligned nonprofits to bypass potential Republican opposition. He intends to continue this until President-elect Trump's inauguration. Efron also discussed potential future employment with these climate organizations. This action reflects a broader pattern of the Biden administration prioritizing favored groups before the transition. Senator Mike Lee responded critically, highlighting the excessive power of Washington and calling for a return to constitutional government. The situation underscores concerns about the misuse of taxpayer money and government overreach.
