One of my very top priorities at EPA is to be an excellent steward of your hard-earned tax dollars. There will be zero tolerance of any waste and abuse.

An extremely disturbing video circulated two months ago, featuring a Biden EPA political appointee, talking about how they were tossing gold bars off the Titantic. Rushing to get billions of your tax dollars out the door before inauguration day.

The "gold bars" were tax dollars, and tossing them off the Titantic meant the Biden administration knew they were wasting it. Following this revelation, during my meetings with members of Congress, I made a very important commitment to them and to the American people, which I reiterated at my confirmation hearing. That if confirmed, I would immediately get a full accounting. Fortunately, my awesome team at EPA has found the gold bars.

Shockingly, roughly 20 billion of your tax dollars were parked at an outside financial institution by the Biden EPA. This scheme was the first of its kind in EPA history, and it was purposely designed to obligate all of the money in a rush job with reduced oversight. Even further, this pot of 20 billion dollars was awarded to just eight entities that were then responsible for doling out your money to NGOs and others at their discretion with far less transparency. Just under 7 billion dollars was sent to one entity, called "The Climate United Fund."
