Zeldin: EPA Paid Over $2B to NGOs Before Inauguration

EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin on Wednesday said he’s discovered that the agency made over $2 billion in payments that went to non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in the weeks leading up to President Donald Trump’s inauguration last month.

“I haven’t had a chance to talk about this one publicly because I just read this about an hour ago,” Zeldin said in an interview with Andrew Wilkow, host of “The Wilkow Majority” on SiriusXM’s Patriot Channel. “I was reading through one of the grant agreements. On page one, it was telling this entity that they have 21 days to distribute $2.29 billion. But that’s not the worst part. On page six, it gives the recipient 90 days to complete their ‘How To Develop a Budget’ training.”

He did not disclose the name of the entity in question.
