Good. The IEA has spent way too much time and money on the climate scam, pushing this, that, and the other. They’ve gone full bore cult
House GOP looks to halt International Energy Agency funding
U.S. funding for the Paris-based International Energy Agency is on the chopping block this budget season.
Lawmakers on the House Appropriations Committee approved legislation Wednesday that calls for canceled funding for the IEA, according to the Republican report attached to the bill.
If approved by both chambers of Congress, the move would mark a stark departure from decades of U.S. funding for an organization that was established in the wake of the 1970s Arab oil embargo but has recently drawn the ire of Republicans.
“The Committee finds that the Agency has abandoned objectivity in the critical energy-supply information it produces and, instead, has pursued politicized information to support climate policy advocacy,” says the report, which is attached to a State Department appropriations bill for fiscal 2026 that also includes an international climate funding prohibition.
“This well-documented shift by the Agency undermines decision-making by policymakers and threatens energy security and the economic interests of the United States,” the report adds.
The rest is buried behind a paywall, but, you get the idea. They do not get a lot of direct money from the US, only about $5.8 million in normal appropriations, but, at least under Biden, but, they also get millions from other US agencies piecemeal. They shouldn’t get a dime.

It ought to be a rule: we should not send any taxpayer dollars overseas unless absolutely necessary, and all such spending should be reviewed ASAP.
Has Mr Dana become a Jew-hater by wanting to end all aid to Israel?
Or does he feel those billions of taxpayer dollars are absolutely necessary?
BTW: Today, we taxpayers are sending Mr trump to Scotland or 5 days to visit his golf properties there. Should that be reviewed ASAP? Or maybe Mr vance has arranged for Mr trump to be deported to his home country…
It ought to be a rule: we should send pedophiles to prison and not to the White House.
Where do you get President Trump is a pedophile?
At least he hasn’t been credibly accused of serially assraping his prepubescent grandson like you, Rimjob.
Finally, you and Porter Good (aka Teach) are officially fucked, LOL.
Thank you!!!
Dana,
It is a short step for politically connected people to assure you that their wasteful spending is ABSOLUTELY Necessary. So much of the Billions consumed by USAID were “reviewed” by their friends and approved. That is why it was necessary to delete the whole department. They were corrupt to the core.
All Foreign aid should just be accepted as a corrupt practice and be illegal. It just isn’t possible for the government to put a billion dollars into a pile with the expressed purpose of “giving it away” and not have the employees want to put some of it into their own pockets.
Next do the CIA. It also isn’t possible for a group of people to operate on enormous secret budgets and not have a lot of it stick to the fingers of the employees. There seems to be a lot of former CIA agents running for office in Virginia (as Democrats) lately. Almost as if “CIA agent” were much higher paying than was reported on their taxes.
Cue Hairy: But Israel…
Bring it, fatboy!
Your intimidation rings hollow around here.
We’ll leave it in the hands of Mr Porter Good of Raleigh NC (dba William Teach) for now. We’re sure he’ll do the right thing within 24 hr. Tick tock. LOL.
