I bet they have a great DEI program. Now they just have to hire people who know how to do the work.

The guy sounds mentally incompetent.

No need to hire any workers.

This is just another Solyndra scam. The whole purpose is to loot the treasury.

And of course those wind catchers are hurricane proof. Stupid and corrupt. No question. The only question is just how far off the meter the stupidity and corruption go.

Yes!

This was going to be defeated but Massie and a couple RINOs ran to help Joe Biden.

Same old story.

All that matters is who’s friends or family got rich off these contracts and how much cash was kicked back to the politicians.

What do they mean "small batch?" The program yielded $2B which sounds like a large haul to me and a great success. The $2B was the intent of the program. You don't think that the taxpayers or the public were the intended beneficiaries of this do you? That would be foolish.

$1 billion equals 1000 times $1 million. Maybe people think that 1 billion is about 2 million like a bicycle has two wheels. The Biden administration is just pouring thousands of millions of dollars to their cronies. It is disgusting and destroying our country financially

It seems like every plan is broke and they did little.

Like Scamala is on record saying - it’s not about the Cost.

Since Tampon Tim lost over $500 Million in Covid funds, you know he agrees.

MN is ridiculously high Tax state, too.

They’re really trying to sell windmills here in NorCal. Probably be a terrible failure but Newson will be deemed a green saint?

I put up a 20 Watt solar panel to charge my boat lift battery. I wonder if I could get a couple of $million grant for this?
