Summary

Trump’s EPA chief, Lee Zeldin, is attempting to seize $2 billion from a nonprofit coalition, including Habitat for Humanity, meant for building energy-efficient homes.

The funds, part of a $20 billion green grant program under Biden’s EPA, were placed in Citibank to prevent interference.

Zeldin, calling the move a “criminal scheme,” is pressuring Citi to return the money, citing “waste and abuse” without evidence and Democratic ties.

Despite GOP opposition, the coalition plans to proceed, aiming to build 72,000 homes, create 64,000 jobs, and cut energy costs by $1.26 billion. A congressional hearing is scheduled.

    That’s not at all what we are saying. You seem way too emotional, might be a good idea to take a step back and not start artificial fights with someone you basically agree with… I don’t feel empathy for these people at all. De-humanizing is simply put counter-productive, as it puts a shadow where a light should be, and that is how those people are influenced to become this way, thus clarifying what goes wrong in society and eliminating the root cause by pointing it out every step of the way.

        You mean people that don’t have any logical arguments, thus only try to insult others and start left-wing in-fighting instead of trying to do something productive? I see your point.

          De-humanization is their schtick, so let’s not sink to their level.

          not start artificial fights with someone you basically agree with

          start left-wing in-fighting instead of trying to do something productive

          Fuck all of the way off. It’s non-stop hypocrisy from dipshits like you that make meaningful discourse here impossible.
