Obama cuts first check under climate deal
Washington Examiner ^ | 3/8/16 | John Siciliano

Posted on 03/08/2016 3:52:51 PM PST by Nachum

The Obama administration sent the first $500 million to the United Nations' Green Climate Fund this week, thumbing its nose at Republican opponents who say taxpayers shouldn't be on the hook for the money.

Critics of the U.S. participating in the fund came out against the president's actions Tuesday.

"President Obama continues to prioritize his political interests over the interests of the American people," said Tom Pyle, president of the conservative American Energy Alliance. "The administration intends to funnel hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars into the U.N.'s climate slush fund while pursuing a domestic agenda that will raise energy costs and leave all Americans poorer."

The payment is part of the climate deal President Obama helped pull together in Paris in December. The $500 million is part of a $3 billion commitment to the fund by the U.S. to help poorer countries cope with the effects of climate change.

Baraq has made the term “lame duck” President totally obsolete, at least for Democrats.

What is the statutory authorization and appropriation? A quaint question, I know, but I’m curious.

terrorist fund. Let me guess, environmentalists do not care about IsIs as a danger to the environment because they were going to funnel the money to IsIS in the first place!

This kind of thing sure worked with the Iranians, who now are looking to scuttle their Nuclear agreement.

Or maybe they do, and they make a lot of noise and then just go Uniparty as usual.

At least, that’s my tinfoil.

And did our Republican leadership in Congress pass a budget which allowed Obama to send $500 million dollars to these creeps?
