‘Solyndra on Steroids’: Biden’s Latest Green Energy Scheme

 In a move eerily reminiscent of the failed Solyndra, President Joe Biden's Department of Energy has doled out massive loans in green energy initiatives to corporations.

To plump the program, the president made a flashy appearance at Solyndra's factory in Fremont, California, just months prior to the 2010 midterms, saying that investing in clean energy is "The right thing to do for our environment, it's the right thing to do for our national security, but it's also the right thing to do for our economy."

An investigation completed years later found that Solyndra had provided the government with "False and misleading information during the application process" and "That the actions of certain Solyndra officials were, at best, reckless and irresponsible or, at worst, an orchestrated effort to knowingly and intentionally deceive and mislead the Department." It also discovered that the Energy Department's "Due diligence efforts were less than fully effective. the Department missed opportunities to detect and resolve indicators that portions of the data provided by Solyndra were unreliable." According to another report, one of the private investors backing the project was a big Obama fund-raising bundler.

Founded in 2005 to pump up green energy with low-interest loans to environmental entrepreneurs, the Department of Energy's Loan Programs Office has languished for a decade and a half - practically mothballed during the Trump years - until 2021, when Biden assumed office.

The Republican chair of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, called Biden's loan program "Solyndra on steroids" and vowed vigorous oversight of these huge loan outlays.

The hardworking people of this country are paying for record high energy and food prices because of President Biden's war on American energy.

They cannot afford for him to waste hundreds of billions of dollars on a political agenda that forces an expensive 'green' energy transition, threatens energy reliability, increases costs, and makes America reliant on the Chinese Communist Party for batteries and solar panels.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

  Multiple U.S. states governed by Republicans are withdrawing state funds from BlackRock's management, as they disapprove of the ESG investment policies of the world's top asset manager, the Financial Times reports.

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
