EPA Mega-Grant Has Stacey Abrams' Fingerprints All Over It

Last month, President Trump singled out Georgia activist Stacey Abrams as someone who helped orchestrate a controversial $2 billion deal between left-wing nonprofit groups and the Environmental Protection Agency during the Biden administration.

“We know she’s involved,” Trump told Congress.

He was right. But after his statement, the Washington media went into overdrive to pooh-pooh her role in a frenzy of “fact-checking.”

The Washington Post, for one, claimed Abrams’ role in the Biden massive green-energy initiative has been “vastly overblown” by President Trump and the “right-wing media.”

The paper’s top fact-checker asserted it’s “a stretch” to suggest the Democratic politician helped land the grant. “[S]he was not involved with Power Forward’s EPA grant,” Post reporter Glenn Kessler recently wrote.

The Post also denied she had “any role at Power Forward Communities beyond advising Rewiring America,” one of the partners in the coalition.

This claim was echoed by PolitiFact, a fact-checking site run by the liberal Poynter Institute, which quoted an Abrams spokesperson as saying, “Abrams did not have a role at Power Forward Communities beyond her position at Rewiring America.”

But in fact, Abrams and her partner Ari Matusiak, CEO of Rewiring America, were the driving force behind winning the massive grant, something they revealed in their own words during a podcast last year. Matusiak said she helped “put together” the Power Forward Communities coalition to apply for and win the $2 billion grant.

Poor Stacey, I assume she lost her share of this new Gubmint grift as well.

When are all these dirty finger prints going to result in somebody doing something about it? It’s time for Bondi to start throwing people in jail instead of just talking the game.

I keep hearing “we’re going to prosecute etc.”, but I don’t see any prosecutions. Remember “we know who the leakers are” as regards ICE operations? Well where are the arrests and trials? What about the FEEBS who perjured themselves on the FISA warrants? Crickets. Barbie/Bondi hasn’t done a lot other than talk.

And then the other thing that we did that Stacy
and I have been working on over the last year
and change is that we put together a coalition to
apply for something called the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund, and
we were selected for two billion dollars to really create
a way forward for low and modern income households in
communities so that every kitchen table is able to participate

“ It’s time for Bondi to start throwing people in jail instead of just talking the game.”

These were legal, that’s the problem.
Junk money given out by EPA.
Reckless spending and a big part of the inflation we have

I’m thinking or should I say hoping that this is all timed and cant be rushed until all the I’s are dotted and T’s are crossed before they lower the boom. Just me imagining the governmental perp walk that the American people demand! If we do not punish this behavior we are the stupid ones

Being from Georgia, I know *I* would LOVE to see this sow’s ear in a prison jumpsuit.

Shhhh, she’s playing Fox TV Show 5D chess. Pass it on.

It hasn’t even been three months.

All-in-all, the DOJ is moving very quickly. Need a bit of time to assemble the evidence. There is plenty, but it does take some time.

The scam was stopped, and there will be prosecutions.

She had created about 25 NGO’s, most with no money, some owing taxes. I bet they were going to be filled with the $2 billion then others would be “hired” so the money could be laundered.
