The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been burning through taxpayer money like a kid on a candy spree. The abuse has been shocking. Under the Biden administration, the EPA channeled billions into so-called “green” initiatives. These weren’t just harmless projects. They were corrupt schemes designed to drain your wallet and cripple our country’s energy independence.
President Trump, a true leader, has been cutting through the leftist smoke and mirrors. Since taking office again, he’s put an end to these charades. According to information, over $29 billion in wasteful and politically motivated grants have been canceled. The EPA’s annual budget is only a fraction of that, proving just how far these scams ran.
ZERO TOLERANCE: The Trump EPA terminates ALL green slush funds riddled with waste and abuse. Up to $29+ BILLION CANCELLED thus far, which is over 3x the size of EPA’s annual operating budget. @mirandadevine @nypost pic.twitter.com/lIQ2QZLLn4

The left’s obsession with “climate change” and their unbending devotion to unreliable energy sources like wind and solar have been a drain. These boondoggles displace dependable energy, weaken our power grid, and endanger our national security. Why rely on energy sources fraught with dependency on foreign supply chains? It’s time we looked out for America’s interests first.
And here’s the kicker: President Trump took decisive action in July to revoke a slew of subsidies that were funding these fantastical green dreams. It was about time. These handouts to wind and solar cronies were harming America’s fiscal health and energy dominance. Yet the left bemoans the loss of their precious programs, seemingly blind to the economic harm they inflict.
Trump is making real change, stripping away the fat and waste of government while holding fast to America’s needs. Is this too much to ask? Is it so outrageous to expect our leaders to protect our nation, our economy, and put America first? The answer should be obvious to anyone who values this great country.
