Yet another hard left wackadoodle moonbat TDS infused judge overruled
U.S. appeals court allows Trump’s EPA to nix climate grants
President Donald Trump’s administration can proceed with terminating more than $16 billion in grants awarded to non-profit groups to fight climate change, a U.S. federal appeals court ruled on Tuesday.
Trump’s predecessor Joe Biden’s signature 2022 Inflation Reduction Act had awarded the grants aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The Environmental Protection Agency under Trump had sought to terminate the grants.
By a 2-1 vote, a panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled that a lower-court judge lacked jurisdiction to hear the case brought by five of eight of the non-profits who had collectively been awarded $20 billion under the law’s Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund program.
The EPA and a lawyer for the plaintiffs did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The EPA under administrator Lee Zeldin maintained the program did not align with the agency’s priorities, and it cited concerns with potential fraud, waste and abuse. The FBI and Justice Department under Trump also investigated the program.
Right off the bat, why is the US government simply giving large sums of taxpayer money to non-governmental organizations, many of which were brand spanking new and had no idea, or plan, on how to use the money? If you want money from a bank you best have an action plan on what you are going to do with it, business wise.
Climate United Fund is a far left organization that takes government money and doles it out. Have they been audited to see where the money goes?
Coalition For Green Capital seems to spend all their time and (taxpayer) money on electing Democrats.
Power Forward Communities, Inc was created in 2023, after Biden’s “Inflation Reduction Act” was passed. This is the one linked to Stacy Abrams. They have no experience really in anything.
Inclusiv, Inc started in 2019, and is all about “managing a $1.87 billion federal award to provide grants to credit unions.” So, spreading the cash around.
Justice Climate Fund, Inc probably needs to be audited, too.
Anyhow, this is all about that money the Biden admin shadily moved into a Citibank account
U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan in Washington issued a preliminary injunction in April, holding that the Trump administration’s actions were unlawful and requiring Citibank to disburse the funds.
Huh. Her again. How many rulings of hers have been overturned since Trump took office? Anyhow, no organization is entitled to taxpayer money unless they’ve already done work for the government. These have done nothing, and really do not do much.
Staffers do most of the work in any administration, and it was only worse than usual under President Autopen. Junior staffers afflicted with the
global warmingclimate worry virus in the White House and at the EPA undoubtedly selected all of these groups, and many probably hoped for jobs with these groups after the dummkopf from Delaware left office.Interestingly enough, we’re now seeing the same people who willfully ignored Mr Biden’s physical infirmities and obvious-to-conservatives mental decline asking where President Trump is after he was kind of quiet for a couple of days, even though he was pictured on the golf course, trying to imply he was having a health crisis of some sort. Mr Trump has been far, far, far more vigorous than his predecessor, but the left never admit to that!
