Biden Admin Rushed Out $90 Billion in Green Loans After Trump’s 2024 Victory
Breitbart ^ | 24 Jun 2025 | JASMYN JORDAN

Posted on 06/24/2025 8:57:02 PM PDT by Mr. Mojo

U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright is slamming the Biden administration for what he calls an “absolutely infuriating” last-minute spending spree, revealing that more than $90 billion in green energy loans were pushed through by the Department of Energy’s Loan Programs Office in the weeks between President Donald Trump’s 2024 reelection and his January inauguration.

In an interview with Breitbart News Washington Bureau Chief Matt Boyle, Wright detailed the results of a newly completed review of the Department of Energy’s Loan Programs Office, revealing that “more than $90 billion in loans were closed or committed in the 76 days between Election Day and Inauguration Day.” This amount exceeds the total loan volume issued by the office over its entire 15-year history.

“To put that in context, over 15 years, it had put out about $43 billion. Then we had an election on November 5 last year, right? And President Trump won that election. After that election day and until President Trump’s inauguration, $90 billion — over twice what was done in 15 years — was done in 76 days. More than half of that, $49 billion, in the last two days, Thursday and Friday, before inauguration the next Monday.”

Boy, like I needed another reason to despise the Democrat party and its supporters. Trump rightfully should’ve received 200 million votes versus a paltry 81. WTH is wrong with so many Americans? I know, it’s a rhetorical question.

Yep....huge doubt that Biden actually, knowingly, did. More like those with ‘autopen control’ dished out cash to leftists.

If we knew where they went, we could.

They weren’t really loans, capisce?

Fact Check: Nonprofit with link to former Rep. Stacey
Abrams got $2B government grant from Biden giveaway

Laerke Christensen
Fri, February 21, 2025
yahoo.com

Claim:

The U.S. Department of Government Efficiency discovered a $2 billion U.S. government grant paid to a nonprofit group linked to former Democratic Rep. Stacey Abrams.

Power Forward Communities is a program led by five organizations including Rewiring America, a nonprofit group that former Democratic state Rep. Stacey Abrams has worked with since 2023. Power Forward Communities received a $2 billion government grant from the Environmental Protection Agency in 2024.

What’s Undetermined:

Claims online say the $2 billion grant for Power Forward Communities was discovered by DOGE. However, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said on Feb. 13 that his team discovered the funding. Additionally, information about the grant was publicly available on a U.S. government website that tracks federal spending, and Power Forward Communities announced it in 2024.

In late February 2025, claims (archived) circulated online that the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency had discovered a $2 billion U.S. government grant paid to a nonprofit group linked to former Democratic state Rep. Stacey Abrams of Georgia.

The post above was viewed more than 18 million times on X. The user wrote:

STACEY ABRAMS SCAM UNCOVERED BY DOGE?!

@DOGE found $2 BILLION in taxpayer dollars designated for a fledgling nonprofit called “Power Forward Communities,” which had close ties to Democrat Stacey Abrams.

The claim also appeared elsewhere on X (archived), Facebook (archived), Threads (archived) and Bluesky (archived).

According to usaspending.gov, a database of federal contracts and grants, a program named Power Forward Communities did receive a $2 billion federal grant in April 2024. The grant came from the Environmental Protection Agency’s National Clean Investment Fund and was paid out to Power Forward Communities in full at the time of this writing. However, while Abrams is connected to that group, it is through an advisory role for one of its five founding organizations, a nonprofit called Rewiring America. We have asked Power Forward Communities and Abrams’ office to confirm her involvement with the program and will update this story if they reply.

They aren’t “Green Loans.” Call them what they are. Payoffs to Dem donors. $90 billion of political payoffs.

That was what I was thinking. Investigate. If Autopenned, claw it all back.

All of it. That is the kind of game they are intent on playing, we should use those same kinds of “rules”. And in our case, it would be wholly legal.
