In a shocking revelation captured by Project Veritas, an undercover video has emerged featuring Brent Efron, a special advisor at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), who confessed to the agency’s hurried allocation of billions of taxpayer dollars to climate change initiatives. This rush occurred just before President Donald Trump’s inauguration in 2017. Efron, instrumental in implementing President Joe Biden’s climate agenda, shed light on the frantic disbursal of funds during a conversation with a Project Veritas undercover operative.
Efron revealed, “Now it’s how to get the money out as fast as possible before they [Trump Administration] come in … It truly feels like we’re on the Titanic or throwing gold bar off the top edge.” His admission underscores the chaotic haste within the EPA under the Biden administration, as they attempted to secure over $100 billion for various environmental projects under the so-called Inflation Reduction Act.
Despite facing a looming Republican administration, the EPA, under Efron’s guidance, scrambled to commit these billions to projects—some of which were initially devised for the presidency of Kamala Harris. This act of financial recklessness highlights the Democrats’ desperate attempt to cement their climate agenda before Trump could potentially dismantle it.

Efron candidly stated, “The thing that we haven’t funded yet are [sic] the local nonprofit program that was going to be an inter-Kamala Harris administration program… so now we’re getting it [funding] out as quick as possible. It’s like two billion at this point, we’ve got most of it out – like 90%.” His comments highlight the Democrats’ reliance on funneling funds through nonprofits as a means to prevent a Trump-led administration from halting or retracting these initiatives.
Further disclosures by Efron exposed the EPA’s strategy, which involved channeling funds through nonprofits as a protective measure against Republican policies. With the statement, “We gave them [nonprofits, states, tribes] the money because… it was an insurance policy against Trump winning. Because they aren’t [a government agency], they’re safer from Republicans taking the money away,” it’s evident that the Democrats intended to evade accountability and operate outside traditional government checks.

Moreover, Efron hinted at the potential personal benefits post-tenure, indicating, “Over the last year we’ve given out $50 billion dollars for climate things… so to go work for one of these places would be really cool.” This blurs the line between public service and personal gain, casting a shadow over the integrity of the EPA under Democratic leadership.
Newly appointed EPA chief Lee Zeldin, a former New York Congressman and staunch ally of Trump, took to social media, proclaiming, “Huge news! Our awesome team EPA just located BILLIONS of dollars worth of “gold bars” that the Biden Admin threw “off the titanic”. Big update coming tomorrow…” Zeldin’s remarks resonate with those demanding accountability and transparency.
The U.S. government is actively working to undermine the American people
We’ve empowered Washington to the point that it’s become dangerous and destructive
It’s too big, too expensive, and too powerful
We must return to constitutional government https://t.co/JW36FWqPYh

Utah Senator Mike Lee also voiced his concerns, writing, “The U.S. government is actively working to undermine the American people. We’ve empowered Washington to the point that it’s become dangerous and destructive. It’s too big, too expensive, and too powerful. We must return to constitutional government.” His words echo the frustration of many Americans who feel the government has overreached, underscoring the need for leaders like Trump to restore sanity in Washington.
