Bloomberg Buys Bureaucrats to Impose Green Lunacy
They say personnel is policy. Ultramoonbat Michael Bloomberg demonstrates the principle:
The New York University State Energy & Environmental Impact Center’s fellowship—which Bloomberg’s eponymous philanthropic nonprofit provided two seed grants worth $5.6 million in 2017—has long placed and paid the salaries of officials in at least 10 state attorney general offices nationwide. Over the past two years, internal emails obtained by the Free Beacon show, the program has expanded to state-level public service commissions, often-overlooked agencies that regulate utility companies and permit energy infrastructure like pipelines and power plants. The commissions also implement state renewable energy standards that force power providers to generate electricity through pricier green sources.
Bloomberg might have been inspired by his fellow leftist zillionaire George Soros, who purchased higher crime rates throughout the country by installing left-wing district attorneys who side with criminals against their victims.
The center’s work in attorney general offices, where Bloomberg-funded fellows have participated in litigation accusing the fossil fuel industry of causing global warming, has prompted conflict-of-interest concerns over the use of private funding to drive public lawsuits. Its work in state regulatory agencies, on the other hand, is a new development—one that suggests the center and its funders seek to play a more active role pushing green energy development at the local level.
The purpose is to deprive us of electricity on behalf of their deranged ideology. But with a net worth of $106 billion, Bloomberg himself will stay warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
Look who Bloomberg’s fellowship managed to place on the Louisiana Public Service Commission:
Rula Thabata, a DEI activist, former policy fellow at a Muslim advocacy group, and recent graduate of Loyola University Chicago School of Law. A job posting for the role echoed the 2023 contract, stating that the [NYU] fellow would be sponsored by the NYU impact center and handle regulatory matters related to the “clean energy future, climate change, [and] energy justice.”
“Energy justice” means only plutocrats like Bloomberg can afford energy.
