House Republican Whip Steve Scalise is slamming the hypocrisy of President Joe Biden’s plans to spend billions on green energy programs as part of his $4 trillion infrastructure proposal.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said this week that a budget reconciliation bill will incorporate elements of Biden’s $2.25 trillion American Jobs Plan and $1.8 trillion American Families Plan that are not ultimately included in any bipartisan infrastructure legislation.
According to a White House fact sheet on Biden’s jobs plan, a substantial portion of the $600 billion in modernizing U.S. transportation infrastructure includes renewable energy investments and $200 billion in electric vehicle-related spending .
Scalise said that phasing out fossil fuels domestically will only lead to heavy industry moving to countries that emit more carbon emissions than the U.S.
“If you don’t make steel in Pittsburgh, steel is still getting made,” the Louisiana Republican said at the Faith and Freedom Coalition conference in Florida on Friday. “You know who is making it? China is making the steel. China emits five times more carbon than if you made it in Pittsburgh, yet they are shutting it down here. You’re emitting more carbon if you don’t make things in America, so what is it really about? They have this religion that they say they hate fossil fuels, except they are hypocrites on this stuff.”

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
