Must have gotten advice from Pappy Frankie.. how to fund the con!
Wasn’t I just reading somewhere that another city did the same thing and as of now, none of those buses is in working condition?
I hope he plans on parking them in the urban, blue hive areas. Where they can catch on fire and revitalize the areas.
Urban battery-powered buses make a lot of sense. We rode one in Banff, Alberta a couple weeks ago and it had the acceleration and quietness of those old San Francisco buses. The best thing was you could sit at outdoor cafes and restaurants and not have to endure diesel fumes and the huge noise from diesel engines. Here is one of the Banff buses disguised in urban camo...
Should be a great means of transport as hurricanes hit /s
I don’t think there are enough eco-greenies to give DeSanctus the nomination.
I used to like the guy. Now he’s another W. Bush.
227 potential rolling bonfires.
He’s the real deal. Not afraid to be an asshole. Ask the media.
Time for deSsntis to stop pretending, NG would have made some sense, but EV just rewards and encourages the scammers. Really bad judgment.
Free money from the thugs of Fed.gov. In this case, money was extorted from VW, who played games with asinine emissions rules created by thug Fed.gov. Usually, its just free money that comes from issuing debt in our printed, fiat currency.
Either way, ALL local government officials are hard-wired to NEVER turn down free Fed.gov money. Its like throwing a deer carcass in front of a pack of coyotes.
I think it’s good that he’s distancing himself from Trump and his environmentally destructive policies.

Harris applauds the green Desantis!
After a hurricane hit the Outer Banks you could drive down the streets and see transformers blowing one after the other.
Salt water spray blew onto them and shorted them out. And I was on the bay side, not even on the island.
So just wait until the next hurricane hits Florida and all those bus batteries short out and catch on fire.
This is from 2022 and the money came from a settlement VW had with the federal government. It could well be that a requirement of receiving that monies was to use it for such projects. The buses are also went to urban areas.
Jackson, WY.
Cuz they work so good……

The Democrats would eat this guy alive in a presidential campaign!
Yep.
Many here may not know what you are talking about.
