Summary
Trump’s EPA chief, Lee Zeldin, is attempting to seize $2 billion from a nonprofit coalition, including Habitat for Humanity, meant for building energy-efficient homes.
The funds, part of a $20 billion green grant program under Biden’s EPA, were placed in Citibank to prevent interference.
Zeldin, calling the move a “criminal scheme,” is pressuring Citi to return the money, citing “waste and abuse” without evidence and Democratic ties.
Despite GOP opposition, the coalition plans to proceed, aiming to build 72,000 homes, create 64,000 jobs, and cut energy costs by $1.26 billion. A congressional hearing is scheduled.
In the midst of a nationwide housing crisis, he pulls this fucking stunt.
Republicans can burn in hell.
May god rest his soul, can President Carter not get five minutes rest in peace, after putting in a lifetime of work? To already make him spin in his grave at the jealous actions of that man-child is endlessly insufferable.
Trump was apparently deeply offended by the timing of Carter’s death and the fucking manchild can’t let it go.

Yet more proof that his campaign was never about Americans, but about hurting people The Party deems beneath themselves.
Democratic ties.
I mean, yeah, helping people is not something Republicans would do.
Helping dirtbag rich people is what Republicans do.
Are they still human without humanity though?
De-humanization is their schtick, so let’s not sink to their level.
De-humanize the people stealing from Habitat for Humanity? Are we supposed to respect Nazis’ opinions or not run the Klan out of town either for fear of sinking to their level?
We don’t have to respect their opinions. (In fact we should vigorously and completely reject them.)
We do have to respect that they are human, and they deserve human rights, whatever those are – the ones we wouldn’t deny a diagnosed and self-identifying sociopath.
We can deny them power, even some freedom, but not their humanity, even as they deny ours or others.
Cool you can enjoy the high road to hell. I’m glad you can feel good about yourself and really feel empathy towards them while they continue stripping rights from others. I will continue to see them as the monsters they are.
That’s not at all what we are saying. You seem way too emotional, might be a good idea to take a step back and not start artificial fights with someone you basically agree with… I don’t feel empathy for these people at all. De-humanizing is simply put counter-productive, as it puts a shadow where a light should be, and that is how those people are influenced to become this way, thus clarifying what goes wrong in society and eliminating the root cause by pointing it out every step of the way.
