Feds investigating Stacey Abrams-linked group’s ‘insane’ $2B EPA grant, Zeldin says
NY Post ^ | Steven Nelson

Posted on 03/29/2025 3:26:23 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

Environmental Protection Agency administrator Lee Zeldin said Thursday that federal authorities are looking into a scrapped $2 billion grant to a group linked to Stacey Abrams, the two-time Democratic candidate for governor of Georgia.

“I have terminated the $2 BILLION Biden EPA grant to this Stacey Abrams-linked NGO,” the former Long Island congressman tweeted.

“The DOJ/FBI are investigating and the money has been frozen. It is insane that the Biden Admin would give $2B to an organization that previously only received $100!”

Zeldin was responding to a Thursday morning Truth Social post by President Trump, who has made Abrams the face of efforts to claw back Biden-era environmental and social-justice funds as part of Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency cost-cutting initiative.

Trump wrote: “[I]s Stacey Abrams going to give back the Two Billion Dollars they funneled into her ‘environmental fund’ just prior to my assuming office. She went from $100 in donations to $2,000,000,000 in just one day? Not bad!!! Get back the money.

The massive grant was awarded to Power Forward Communities in April 2024 from environmental spending in former President Joe Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.

Seems democrat’s ‘great ‘concern and empathy’ was only for themselves.

It’s also why they hate Elon Musk - he keeps finding their slush funds pots.

Kind of like when BLM ‘leaders’ bought themselves mansions with money donated for the black community - the ONLY difference is the BLM thugs used donated money while democrats use taxpayer money.

Was this White guilt corporate money donations gifted from industry to benefit the Black community, and mostly used to slush fund a handful of BLM “leaders” instead?

Stacy Abrams has been into suspicious activities about long enough it seems. Why would anyone want her to even get within smelling distance of that amount of money?

Because she knows how and how much to kick back to the senators/congress critters and bureaucrats and she won't talk about it.

Every corrupt taker starts with a corrupt person in charge of some part of the granting process.
