The Biden Regime last month created a national uproar when they pushed to ban gas stoves across America before later backtracking. They and their media allies then accused their opponents of unwarranted hysteria.
But today we know the Regime put their plan in motion several months prior and there is a China connection involved.
According to Fox News, Biden’s Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm secretly met with the leader of the Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI), which was responsible for the frivolous study claiming gas stoves were a public health hazard, in June 2021. This meeting came just six months before the Regime’s campaign against the gas stove.
The RMI is a radical-left environmentalist group with strong ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Despite this, they have received millions of dollars to help carry out Biden’s so-called “green energy” transition.
Kortenhorst was the only participant in Granholm’s meeting and no agenda was released. But considering the guest and Granholm’s own nefarious desire to rid America of fossil fuels, one can make a safe assumption regarding the subject matter.
Fox News reported:
Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm met privately with the leader of the Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI), the group that funded a recent study used to justify calls for a gas stove ban.
Granholm met with Jules Kortenhorst — the CEO of RMI at the time — in June 2021, according to her internal agency calendar obtained by government watchdog group Americans for Public Trust (APT). Kortenhorst is a widely known global climate activist who also founded the Energy Transitions Commission and chairs the World Economic Forum’s Global Future Council on Net Zero Transition.
Granholm’s calendar listed Kortenhorst as the only participant in the meeting and didn’t include the agenda for the meeting, which was conducted via Zoom and lasted for approximately an hour. RMI didn’t respond to a request for comment.
RMI — which is a Colorado-based nonprofit that works to accelerate the global green energy transition, particularly through economy-wide electrification — recently made headlines after it funded a study that highlighted public health dangers posed by gas stove usage. The study was cited in a Bloomberg article in early January that included comments from a Consumer Product Safety Commission member who told the outlet a gas stove ban was “on the table.”

The latest news out of California is that they want you to rip out your EXISTING gas furnace, gas water heater, and gas stove! The estimated cost to convert an all-gas house to electric is $25,000.
Who made SloJoe blow the Nordstream pipes?
Kortenhorst said in one of his statements that what his company is doing will lead to prosperity. I have to wonder who he’s referring to. It definitely won’t be us little ppl when we’re living in the urban projects they have planned for us with no way out because they took away our cars.
These ppl are evil monsters who must be stopped.
I’m thinking that BiXiden, et.al. blew up the Nordstream pipes for leftist narrative furtherance reasons.
It’s a total Watermelon New Deal play.
Make peeps use less natural gas while driving up the price for everyone else. Win Win.
Nuland, Blinkin’, BiXiden, Woke Milley, Austin, whoever is CIA chief are all very evil people.
Same ones who own him, is my guess.

My gas company is giving rebates for new gas stoves

This is all by design to get rid of gas .. my sister got her gas bill for this month it’s 1600 dollars yeah you read that right.. they are doing this on purpose so that people are forced to get off gas and go electric
My folks had an all electric home and all was well until the Blizzard of ‘78. No heat, no lights, no nothin’. The fire department had to get us out on snow mobiles. Later that winter we had a 100-year ice storm and made it out to my grandma’s. She had a gas furnace and gas stove. What a difference.
After that, my folks put in a wood stove and I have always had a gas stove at my house. Because I could still light the stove and have some heat and cook, too.
What makes you think the electric bill would be cheaper?
Granholm, dumber than hot dog crap and an incompetent leftist clown to boot. Did I get it right or should I throw in Red puppet too?
It’s about control. Electricity they can shut off.
A very sick and evil world we live in.
So when is “Team Mitch” and “Kevin” going to PUSH BACK on this?
