In a controversial move that has sent shockwaves through political and environmental circles, it’s been revealed that the Biden administration’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) allocated a staggering $2 billion to a newly established nonprofit organization closely linked to prominent Georgia Democrat Stacey Abrams. This discovery, uncovered by Elon Musk’s DOGE, raises serious questions about the motives and transparency of the funding process under the current administration. The organization in question, Power Forward Communities, reportedly received this colossal green energy grant despite being founded only a few months prior in late 2023 and having a meager revenue report of just $100 in its first three months of operation.
This financial maneuver by the EPA was part of a larger Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund program grant, distributed in April 2024, which doled out a total of $20 billion across eight entities. EPA Chief Lee Zeldin, in a recent announcement on February 13th, revealed an alarming lack of federal oversight. “It’s extremely concerning that an 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,” Zeldin is quoted as saying by the Free Beacon, emphasizing the astonishing scale of the grant in relation to the fledgling nonprofit’s reported income.

The EPA, under scrutiny for its management of taxpayer dollars, found that this entire $20 billion sum had been strategically parked at an outside financial institution prior to the Biden administration’s departure—an unprecedented action designed to restrict federal oversight. Critics argue that this move gave excessive discretion to these entities, allowing the vast amounts of money to be dispensed to various non-governmental organizations and other groups with little to no transparency, as powerfully encapsulated by Zeldin: “Shockingly, roughly $20 billion of your tax dollars were parked at an outside financial institution by the Biden EPA.”
This revelation is just another chapter in the ongoing saga of questionable decisions clouding the Biden administration’s track record, which includes accusations of funneling billions into climate organizations in a reported last-minute financial heist. EPA Advisor Brent Efron, caught on an undercover video by Project Veritas, candidly compared the agency’s actions to “throwing gold bars off the Titanic,” suggesting a reckless approach to managing taxpayer funds. As more details emerge, the connection to Stacey Abrams adds a layer of political intrigue and controversy.
🚨Stacey Abrams’ Power Forward Communities received $2 BILLION to be a pass through entity for Biden EPA’s $20 billion “gold bar” scheme.
They reported just $100 in total revenue after their founding in late 2023.

The broader implications of these actions pose ethical questions about the intersection of politics and environmental funding, leaving many to wonder how such decisions would evolve under a Republican administration led by figures like Donald Trump, who have often criticized the Democrats’ handling of environmental policies and financial accountability.
