The Buydem Admin Director of a $400 Billion government loan program is going to private events where industry insiders pay to get access to him to talk about loans … and that’s fine?

Excerpt:
"During a Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee hearing Thursday, GOP Senator Josh Hawley rendered a Biden Energy Department official speechless as he exposed how he and his ilk attend so called ‘pay to play’ speaking events.
Hawley questioned Jigar Shah, the Director of Loan Programs, regarding paid events DOE officials attend and often speak at, and the conflict of interest this creates.
Shah talked himself into a corner and then went silent:
“You’re the Director of the loan programs for the federal government Department of Energy. People who want to get loans from the government are paying to see you and you think that that’s fine?” an exasperated Hawley noted, before adding “that’s not a rhetorical question.”"

D.C. is utterly corrupt. NIFO

Some of the comments are great! One on similar wavelength said something like, "If a foreign country nuked DC and only DC, would the rest of the country care?" LOL!
Another said, regarding Xiden's energy department, DoE should be renamed to Imaginary Problems Ministry - Climate Change Division. Priceless.
