Energy Secretary’s Electric Vehicle Roadtrip Devolves Into ‘Scene Out Of VEEP’ (Comic Relief)
Daily Wire ^ | 9/10/2023 | Daniel Chaitin

The Biden administration‘s efforts to promote electric vehicles hit a roadblock during Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm‘s summer trip through the southeast United States.

Granholm and her entourage used a fleet of electric vehicles to journey from Charlotte, North Carolina, to Memphis, Tennessee, with town hall events along the way, NPR’s Camila Domonoske wrote in a report published on Sunday.

The purpose of the trip was to “draw attention to the billions of dollars the White House is pouring into green energy and clean cars,” but Domonoske, who joined the caravan for the ride, shared how the four-day venture was not a smooth ride all the way through.

The only thing “green” about this administration’s energy policy is the amount of extra green that has to come out of people’s pockets to pay for it.

“Less than 1% of the 250 million cars, SUVs and light-duty trucks on the road in the United States are electric.”
-Reuters

Never mind about larger vehicles, you know, the ones that get about 6 miles to the gallon.

I liked the Feds blocking a charging station to “reserve” a spot for the Sec of Energy so she would not be inconvenienced....... kind of like a Queen.....

In Florida we had auto inspections. They were run by notoriously rude men. One day the governor’s wife took their car in to be inspected. Not knowing who she was they treated her like one of us ordinary citizens. Two weeks later they were all unemployed. What bothers me is we were all treated hideously and it didn’t matter. But just one event happening to our royalty and bam! The hammer falls.

Think that’s bad, try walking “peacefully and patriotically” into the “House of the People”.

I would imagine that folks who are against EVs would not be particularly impressed when shown how their tax dollars are being wasted.
