Mr. Frosty Melts: Watch Lee Zeldin Rake Senator Ed Markey Over the Coals – 5.22.25
Senator Ed Markey tried to go up against EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin and completely embarrassed himself in the process.
Watch:
Republicans are getting really good at bringing the receipts. I think we know who we can thank for that…
We have never had a GOP so willing to fight back against Dem BS and take control of the narrative.
It is truly spectacular to watch.

WASHINGTON – In a letter to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Acting Inspector General (IG), EPA formally referred the well documented and concerning matter of financial mismanagement, conflicts of interest, and oversight failures with the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) for further investigation. Given the severity of misconduct, waste, conflicts of interest, and potential fraud, the GGRF is undergoing a comprehensive review alongside concurrent investigations by the U.S. Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation.
“It is my pledge to be accountable for every penny the EPA spends. This marks a stark turn from the waste and self-dealing of the Biden-Harris Administration intentionally tossing ‘gold bars off the Titanic.’ The American people deserve accountability and responsible stewardship of their tax dollars. We will continue to deliver,” said EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin.
For example, a Stacey Abrams linked organization that reported just $100 in revenue in 2023, was chosen to receive $2 billion—that’s 20 million times the organization’s reported revenue. To highlight just how unqualified this organization was, the grant agreement provided 90 days to complete “How to Develop a Budget” training even though the organization was instructed to start spending down the balance in the first 21 days of that timeframe.
“Recent findings reveal a pattern of reckless financial management, blatant conflicts of interest, astonishing sums of tax dollars awarded to unqualified recipients, and severe deficiencies in regulatory oversight under the prior administration,” according to the letter.
The letter offers assistance in the form of additional resources needed to conduct a full and thorough investigation and other agency support during the independent review of the GGRF.
“[W]e will continue to aggressively pursue enhanced oversight, answers, and accountability. We stand firmly alongside the Office of the Inspector General in our shared mission to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse with the EPA,” continued the letter.
