Official Behind Gas Stove Crackdown Admits She Has No Clue What It Takes To Install An Electric Stove
Daily Caller ^ | 7/18/23 | Arjun Singh

Posted on 07/18/2023 10:59:27 PM PDT by CFW

A senior Biden administration official responsible for overseeing a new rule that would push households to purchase electric stoves over cheaper gas-powered stoves said that she does not know how an electric stove is installed during testimony before the House Oversight Subcommittee on Energy Policy, Economic Growth, and Regulatory Affairs on Tuesday.

The Department of Energy (DOE) on Feb. 1 published a proposed federal regulation that would require millions of household gas stoves in the United States to be modified for “energy efficiency,” according to the rule’s text, which has provoked an outcry from Republicans. In testimony before the subcommittee, Geraldine Richmond, the Under Secretary of Energy for Science and Innovation who oversaw the rulemaking process, said she does not know how an electric stove, the suggested alternative under the rule, would be installed.

To serve as the leader of a governmental agency in the Biden administration, you have to prove that you know absolutely nothing about the issues over which you will be making decisions. Even a small bit of experience or knowledge is obviously an automatic disqualifier.

I cannot believe this is even being discussed, much less seriously discussed. These Democraps should be locked up and be nowhere near power.

The entire unelected regulatory apparatus / Fourth Branch needs to be ash-canned and thrown into the Marianas Trench.

For the Regime, creating more dysfunction, incompetence, failure and decay is a feature, not a bug.

Regulations and mandates that just make everything worse gives them more discretionary power to exempt members of the Friend Coalition, and punish members of the Enemy Coalition

The worse things work, the more they increase their power.

Just imagine that the entire Biden Administration is a comedy show; a clown show for the rest of the world to enjoy, as they laugh at the self-destruction of the United States of America.

Then, it all makes sense.

What is her melanin concentration, sexual orientation, and “pronouns”?

Those are the only things (other than young girls’ hair and ice cream) that matter to the dungy-one

Neither deep enough nor far enough removed as to qualify as the New Testament's "outer darkness"!

I guess the one thing is that this Regime is so incompetent and dysfunctional that it is going to collapse. Things like water, elecricity, atm machines, sewer are going to just stop working, or just work intermittently.

You look at South Africa right now where you get the full effect of putting “diversity” hires in charge of very complex systems.

White towns like Orania have to build a complete parallel infrastructure system to become independent of failed state systems.

Eventually the US dollar is going to collapse. They won’t be able to print w/o hyperinflation.

Once DC has no money, and no way to pay its clients, people in the States that still function are going to ignore them and build for themselves.

why pollute the ocean?
Dump the bodies in DC and let them rot. Nature will deal with it. Dogs and birds need to eat.

In most cases you'd have to get a new electrical panel with upgraded
service. 100 amp panel won't cut it. Probably 3 or 4 thousand
dollars minimum, maybe more. Same with electric cars. Talking
serious coin.

Pass a law and let the market sort it out. Straight-up fascism.

You can’t flambé on an electric stovetop. And there isn’t an electric stovetop made with eyes large enough to accommodate a properly-sized crêpe pan. That’s why every last kitschy little crêpe stand in the city of Paris cooks on a propane-powered burner.

You can heat your food on an electric stovetop but if you want to create food-as-art, you need gas.
