John Podesta Handed Out $375 BILLION In Taxpayer Dollars to "Pop Up" Organizations Created Only Months Before

People need to go to prison for 40 years for this.

$375B EPA slush fund handled by John Podesta gave billions to charities founded only months earlier

The Biden administration funneled at least $20 billion dollars into environmental groups, most of which had only recently been founded, The Post has discovered.
In one case, former Vice President Kamala Harris handed over a check for nearly $7 billion to Bethesda, Maryland, based group Climate United Fund, which does not appear in the IRS's charities database, and has no federal filings.
The non-profit fund had only been incorporated in Delaware on November 30, 2023, according to public records, five months before Harris handed over the cash in April 2024.
The Climate United Fund then announced "the historic investment" in a press release, noting the group's work "delivers benefits like cleaner air...and increased energy security."'
However, because the company is so new, there is no publicly published accounting of how it plans to spend the $7 billion.

The literal hundreds of billions of dollars were given to "pop up" NGOs started by Democrat cronies. Then these NGOs handed some of the money off to other groups.

Of course, all of the middlemen took their cut of the $375 billion first. Mafia bosses get to dip their beaks, you know.

...

"Ethically speaking, it's concerning," said Laurie Styron, CEO of Charity Watch, an independent charity watchdog group.
"What was the purpose of creating middlemen entities when there are so many established groups in the climate space with good track records? What was the value-added in [by] doing it this way, especially with such large sums of taxpayer funds?"
The cash for the charity came from a huge $370 billion climate slush fund of taxpayer money overseen by John Podesta, a political consultant who was chair of Hillary Clinton's failed 2016 bid for president and White House chief of staff to Bill Clinton.

Of course. Of course. How could it be otherwise?

In 2022, President Joe Biden named Podesta to helm the climate fund, which resulted from the Inflation Reduction Act, a 2022 law that was aimed at combatting climate change and creating clean energy.
Last year, EPA advisor Brent Efron was caught on video describing how the agency hastily parceled out a related $20 billion climate fund that was held by Citibank before the end of the Biden administration.
"Get the money out as fast as possible before they [Trump Administration] come in ... it's like we're on the Titanic and we're throwing gold bars off the edge," he said in video posted online by activist group Project Veritas.

3) Of course there is inflation it is a sign that Biden's policies are saving the economy. Really you should be thanking us

72 From what I've seen so far there are Foundation Depots that get the full amount. They take their administrative cut for salaries and then proceed to cut up the grant into pieces and distribute to selected non-profits. This immediately turns it from public money to private money.

These non-profits take their administrative cut and may hold onto some of the money for their own pet projects, but the majority is pushed onto more non-profits (rinse lather repeat).

After further generations of this process tracking the actually money is extremely difficult as it gets mixed in with other sources and "gifts". Nothing short of a forensic audit starting at the initial grant all the way to the last spent nickel is going to suffice.

73 From the Urban Dictionary:

"humgruffin

The act of using your lower lip as a shovel to clean smashed pie off the floor.

This is done without hands- to be properly humgruffin, you must rest your chin on the floor with your lip extended and propel yourself forward with your legs.

For example, "I dropped a pie last night, and before I could get the broom, Katie was humgruffin that shit up.""

It's been a long time coming though.
A lot of that $36T came from two wars, various other conflicts, the Great Recession after the bailout of 2008 and then COVID spending was the coup de grace. Healthcare costs are exploding the budget.

Congress needs to stop with thecontinuing resolutions, which just add a % on to last years budget.
They've been doing that since Obama came into office.

They just gave up on writing budget bills and passing them. Now they just put everything in a huge omnibus bills that nobody can read in time.

One minor objection here, if you go to lefty sites they ID the WoT is a big part of the current debt.

While it wasn't nothing, its cost pales in comparison to all of the domestic spending that has gone on over the last 20 years.

Though one thing I'd like to see Hegseth and Trump push is that future wars will not be fought by spending a $1M missile to kill $100 worth of jihadis. One of the more important lessons to come out of the Uke war is you better be able to pay for the munitions and weapons you use so a $20 artillery shell is better then a $1000 bomb which is better then a $1M missile

Where John would "raise" say $100 mil and get his 10%, then that $90 would be transferred to the Bill Clinton Global fund (or whatever they called their shell organization) and the unique way these charities are run, Podesta would get another 10% and that would keep happening every time the money was moved around, until he basically ended up with all of it.

Im guessing the charters for these organizations are written the same way,, where the person raising the funds gets 10% everyone its transferred, hence the many middle men foundations.

163 Biden Awarded $28 Million to Mysterious 'Vaccine Company' Run by His COVID Adviser and Based out of a Maryland PO Box

During the final months of the Biden administration, the National Institutes of Health awarded $28 million to a mysterious venture-backed company called Vaccine Company Inc., a biomedical firm founded in 2022 whose chief financial officer happens to be one of former president Joe Biden’s top COVID advisers.

To Sen. Joni Ernst (R., Iowa), the September 2024 grant from the NIH’s Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health doesn’t pass the smell test. Vaccine Company has left virtually no public footprint showing what it has done with the taxpayer funds, which the Biden administration doled out to a seemingly random post office box in Bethesda, Maryland. Ernst urged Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in a letterlate Tuesday to investigate why the Biden administration awarded millions of taxpayer dollars to the mysterious firm and to consider clawing back any portion of the reward that remains unspent.

Propublica Nonprofit Explorer
Many Types of Nonprofits
501(c)(3) nonprofits, which are charities like the Easter Seals, the Boys & Girls Club and, well, ProPublica, are exempt from paying most federal income tax, and donations to them are exempt from tax. There are many varieties of nonprofit organizations beyond 501(c)(3)’s, such as 501(c)(5)’s, which include labor unions, and 501(c)(4)’s, which include social welfare organizations. Each type has its own rules about things like eligibility, lobbying, electioneering and whether donations to them are tax deductible, and each is covered by a different subsection of the 501(c) section of the tax code.

A list & data (2012-2019 only) follows.

Oh, I have no doubt that our elected R's are up to their eyeballs in this shit, too.

Elon said on Rogan that it was 2/3 D's 1/3 R's from what he's uncovered so far. That could be true.

But at the end of the day, I suspect we'll be hard pressed to find anyone in DC not massively benefiting from this system.

Think about it: ALL OF THEM knew this was going on the entire time. Remember Paul Ryan the "budget wonk" telling us the only real place he could find in the budget to cut from was social security? After he and his dream team went over the entire budget?

No one said "hey what about all the USAID fraud? We should look in to what they're doing."

And USAID has been doing this shit since the 1960's! This is nothing new. Many generations of politicians have come and gone and none ever felt it was necessary to mention the massive corruption, fraud and theft from taxpayers?

307 Seriously, every ounce counts when you send something to the moon. I don't know what sort of "self-righting" systems would work in that environment, but I know they'd count against payload limits.

A failed mission counts 100% against payload limits.

308 My GOD! They used the money they stole from taxpayers in Missouri to emanate domain their heritage farmland! They steal the money to steal the land. They are asset stripping us by any means available. This is a nuclear war on all of us.

Then they turn around and sell that land to China...

309 What kills me is I'm imagining all the same going on in the states. We are run by corrupt thieves that their only reason for running for office is power and the graft for themselves and their friends, family and associates.

You bet your ass it is.

311 No "tax holiday."

No personal income taxes period. Trillions of dollars were stolen. My money. Either give it all back, or quit taking it from me.

No debate. Do it.

312 Musk joked last week on Rogan about how he was going to be assassinated if he kept digging.

Musk also said that Soros had created 100s of NGOs with seed money that he then leveraged with USAID money -- like 100 to 1 leverage.

There's oceans of data at the NSA that can be analysed with AI to connect the dots on all this.

Oh I think the same operation is happening at the school district level. Turtles all the way down.

I refuse to trade artistic barbs with someone who hates The Godfather. Your pinball love though makes up for it.

315 No debate. Do it.

Yes!

316 Every penny needs to be accounted for and the prosecutions should start post haste.

I think this is more important than the never ending distraction over the Epstein Files. For one, there is likely significant overlap of the two circles. Second, the NGO scan cuts to the core of Democrat power going forward.

318 Did Kari Lake get approved to run VOA into the ground yet? If she can’t handle this turd she doesn’t deserve to be handed the GOv election stolen from her in AZ.
