EPA Secretary Lee Zeldin was on Andrew Wilkow’s show yesterday and told him about billions in illegitimate payments given to NGOs. The scheme was set up to prevent oversight and accountability.
“I have one for you, Andrew,” Lee said. “I haven’t had a chance to talk about this one publicly because I just read this about an hour ago. I was reading through one of the grant agreements.
