The FBI is now in the picture as the Environmental Protection Agency investigates a $20 billion bonanza that took place in the closing months of the Biden administration.
FBI agents spoke with EPA staffers recently, according to The Washington Post.
Agents are investigating Biden’s “green bank” grant initiative, the National Clean Investment Fund, and the Clean Communities Investment Accelerator programs.
“When we learned about the Biden administration’s scheme to quickly park $20 billion outside the agency, we suspected that some organizations were created out of thin air just to take advantage of this,” an EPA representative said.
“As we continue to learn more about where some of this money went, it is even more apparent how far-reaching and widely accepted this waste and abuse has been,” the representative said.
