On Wednesday, Townhall<\/a> posted an article detailing where some of the money the government spent in the Inflation Reduction Act actually went. It wasn’t only a green energy bill, it was also a left wing political activism bill.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

A glaring example comes from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA,) which distributed grants to organizations that train activists to oppose infrastructure projects under the guise of \u201cenvironmental justice.\u201d For instance, the EPA sent $50 million<\/a> to the Climate Justice Alliance, which has a network of 90 affiliates. Last November, the group organized a march<\/a> in Washington, D.C. where protestors proclaimed \u201cFree Palestine Is a Climate Justice Issue.\u201d Your tax dollars at work.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In another instance, the Gulf of Maine Research Institute received $500,000 to build \u201ccapacity\u201d for disadvantaged waterfront communities, which is essentially code for teaching activists how to block offshore wind development\u2014ironically, a project supported by the Biden administration. So, the same taxpayer dollars funding offshore wind are also protesting the same offshore wind. It\u2019s government efficiency at its finest.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Worse still, some of the most troubling beneficiaries of this funding have nothing to do with the environment at all. As U.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV) has pointed out<\/a>, millions of dollars are being funneled to radical anti-immigration enforcement groups. The New Jersey Alliance for Immigrant Justice and the New York Immigration Coalition, both recipients of IRA funds, advocate against federal immigration enforcement and border control, further highlighting how poorly aligned these investments are with reducing inflation. However, they always seem magically aligned with paying organizations that support the political left. Or more specifically, funding paychecks for potential Harris voters.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

It is a convenient scenario for Harris where activists are funded to organize, and bureaucratic inertia prevents effective oversight. All the while, the broader public is left holding the bag\u2014facing higher costs and fewer jobs. Surprising absolutely no one, the Climate Justice Alliance has endorsed<\/a> Kamala for President.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It turns out if you rob Peter to pay Paul, then Paul will surely support you for president. In that sense, the Inflation Reduction Act is working exactly as Kamala Harris wants.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If we had a media that actually reported on corruption, the Inflation Reduction Act would never have passed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
