Trump-appointed EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin has been attempting to freeze $16 billion in federal funds that the Biden Administration granted to climate change NGOs. Project Veritas revealed that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) deliberately gave away BILLIONS in funds prior to Trump taking office. In a major win for the American public, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit overturned a lower court ruling that would have jeopardized the remaining $16 billion.
Despite evidence directly showing that the EPA offloaded billions in taxpayer funds ahead of Trump’s appointment, a lower court initially ruled in favor of the outgoing administration and claimed that the EPA did not have the right to block funds designated to climate groups. The latest ruling by a federal appeals court determined in a 2-1 vote that the EPA has the authority to prevent these green agencies from stealing from the American public.
People do not realize just how much money the EPA blew through on absolutely nothing. Biden admitted that the Inflation Reduction Act, the most expensive spending package in US history, was about CLIMATE CHANGE at its core and had nothing to do with inflation. Those at the EPA called the act “Biden’s climate law” and were eager to spend the $360 billion set aside for green initiatives. The Inflation Reduction Act was merely a climate change slush fund.
Efron told an undercover journalist that they were preparing to spend the money as quickly as possible right up until inauguration day. “We gave them [nonprofits] the money because… it was an insurance policy against Trump winning. Because they aren’t [a government agency], they’re safer from Republicans taking the money away,” he said. The EPA awarded nonprofits between $50 and $100 million EACH toward the end of Biden’s presidency.
The corruption is insultingly blatant. One agency was awarded a $2 BILLION grant despite only producing $100 in revenue and was tied to corrupt, failed politician Stacey Abrams. Imagine if Donald Trump awarded $2 billion to an organization that earned less than a child’s lemonade stand and had connections to a conservative ally? The absolute corruption of the past administration is unbelievable as they robbed the public blind for climate, migrants, war, and personal gain.
There is a chance that this issue could be sent to the US Supreme Court. The American people should be outraged that the government would openly spend billions to spite a political rival. The former EPA was not hurting Trump with this spending, as the people are who always bear the brunt of these political wars.

U.S. Solicitor General D. John Sauer has asked the Supreme Court to accept the case by next week, hear arguments in early November and “expedite” its ultimate ruling “to the maximum extent feasible.” [Appeal Here] with [Expedited Review Request Here]
From the request for expedited consideration, “The en banc Federal Circuit’s erroneous decision has disrupted highly impactful, sensitive, ongoing diplomatic trade negotiations, and cast a pall of legal uncertainty over the President’s efforts to protect our country by preventing an unprecedented economic and foreign-policy crisis,” Sauer notes.
Adding comments from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, “The recent decision by the Federal Circuit is already adversely affecting ongoing negotiations. World leaders are questioning the Presi-dent’s authority to impose tariffs, walking away from or delaying negotiations, and/or imposing a different calculus on their negotiating positions.”
Moreover, “[t]he frameworks for trade agreements already in place contain additional provisions whereby the trade partners agree to significant purchases from and/or in-vestments in the United States.” … “If these agreed upon frameworks were unwound and the investments and purchases had to be repaid, the economic consequences would be catastrophic.” (more)
At issue is the president’s authority under the International Economic Emergency Powers Act (IEEPA), a 1977 law Trump used to impose baseline tariffs between 10 and 50 percent on goods from countries who do not have Free Trade Agreements with the U.S.
President Trump also declared fentanyl drug shipments a national emergency, providing the administration’s justification for imposing tariffs on Canada, China and Mexico.

Initially it was supposed to be closed to the press, but President Trump decided to bring in the media as interest increased. President Trump hosted a significant group of some of the most influential tech leaders into the White House for dinner.
In large measure, this group is not -by disposition- very favorable toward President Trump, however with the power of the office they understand how dependent they are to his favor. From his perspective, Trump is leveraging the power and ingenuity of advanced technological capacity against adversaries who might align against ¹U.S. dominance (China, Russia et al), so this group represents a capability he is leveraging.
Some of the group, looking specifically at Bill Gates, are just plain globalist a-holes, promoting their self-importance as global influencers. President Trump’s decision to open the doors to the media puts the group in an uncomfortable position as they are then forced to reveal publicly their opinion of the assembly. [Insert fox smiling picture here]. WATCH:
¹Russian President Vladimir Putin made remarks earlier in the day about discussions with President Trump and corporate global energy developers about collaborating in the artic circle and Alaska.
In the big picture, President Trump wants both peace and economic abundance globally, and while regional interests like Ukraine influence the background of collaboration, nonetheless the desire remains.
One side has raw industrial power; the other has technological capabilities. President Trump is leveraging the abilities of the latter against the strength of the former.
I enjoy watching this dance.
Somewhere in my smiling dream state I imagine Tulsi Gabbard and Marco Rubio discussing the challenges when President Trump walks into the room and says, “eh, quit worrying; if we need to, we can turn off their little machines. C’mon, let’s go eat tacos, and Marco can tell us about his trip down south.”

The information about the investigation of John Bolton have been assumptions and leaks. However, within the recently unsealed search warrant carried out against the former National Security Advisor, we can see what the basis for the investigation consists of.
The reason for the investigation is: (1) “Gathering, transmitting or losing defense information”, and (2) “Unauthorized removal and retention of classified documents or material.” [Also noted “on or after April 9, 2018” – pg 9]
There are some interesting redactions within the search warrant related to the official duties and capacities of John Bolton as employed by the United States Government. [Page 9 of pdf, page 35 as printed] A secondary job title is oddly redacted. Also, did Bolton have an official alias?

Lt General William Joseph “Joe” Hartman is a University of Southern Alabama graduate (class of ’89). Hartman had served as the deputy commander of U.S. Cyber Command, and previously served as commander of the Cyber National Mission Force. Before that, he served in various infantry, intelligence and cyber operations military roles in the U.S., Germany, South Korea, Iraq, Afghanistan and other locations.
WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump is expected to nominate Lt. Gen. William Hartman, the acting leader of both the National Security Agency and U.S. Cyber Command, to formally lead both agencies, two people with knowledge of the situation told POLITICO on Thursday.
Hartman has the support of top officials at the White House, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the Defense Department, according to one of the people. Both individuals were granted anonymity as they were not authorized to speak publicly.
[…] Hartman’s paperwork will be sent to the National Security Council before hitting the president’s desk. The dual role is a Senate-confirmed position, given that it is a promotion to four-star general.
[…] Hartman is unlikely to face much pushback to his nomination in the Senate. He testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee’s cyber subcommittee in April, days after Haugh’s dismissal, and garnered praise from both sides of the aisle. (read more)
Hartman’s nomination follows Joe Francescon being picked to serve as deputy director of the NSA.
This is a critical nomination. It is a very interesting dynamic. The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) can block a nomination that is against their control efforts and that ultimately this becomes how the SSCI controls the power dynamic within the intelligence apparatus.
Deputy NSA Director Joe Francescon did not require SSCI nomination, and Joe Francescon was fully supported by DNI Tulsi Gabbard. To become Director of the NSA William Joseph Hartman appears acceptable to Gabbard, acceptable to the White House and acceptable to the SSCI.

President Trump has scheduled a 2:00pm ET announcement from the White House. The president has not been seen in several days as he took a Labor Day weekend holiday.
While the topic of the announcement has not been made in advance, the greatest likelihood surrounds the removal of Space Force from Colorado (Peterson Space Force Base) and relocation to Alabama (Huntsville’s Redstone Arsenal – home of Airforce Command). The move away from Colorado is also interesting as the secondary Cyber Command data center is in Colorado (CTH is interested in this data center). The Livestream Links are below:
