Yes, but rest assured it won't be an EV school bus because the people Biden gave a contract with taxpayers' money to manufacture electric school buses went belly up!
I bet she told that staffer to drive ahead and get in line. These young staffers would never think on their own to do something like that. They're just mules getting the heavy work done us they are expendable.
I watch a guy on YT from the UK it is unreal the crap you have to go thru to charge an EV when on a road trip, you turn up most of them are out of order, then the rest are being used, so you sit and wait and then you wait 1 hour to charge at the same time spending money on never ending cups of coffee and snacks
The electric car concept is to weed out the average person to have a car. Most people cannot afford a electric cars. Pushing 15 minute cities is part of this big plan as well.
not to mention Beijing Biden pushing issues to fill his pockets with insider stocks... he pays people and gives them the info just like Granholm does... and as far as the Green New Scam ... mining and processing minerals for wind turbines , Solar panels , batteries do so much more damage to the earth than any oil drilling or fracking has ever done...
You are absolutely correct, I live in rural America and drive 55 minutes to work and 55 minutes from work, there is EXACTLY ONE charging station in my travel , which is why I drive a gas powered vehicle.
You can all see that with the wide open border! Immigrants in hotels and Americans in tents on the sidewalk! And citizens paying to keep illegals in hotels 😮😮
I think Granholm actually believes her own BS. But, she'll be long gone with her millions safely tucked away while we all have to struggle with the result of their disastrous policies. Government business as usual.

Wow I really want Route 66 filled with electric chargers robot instead of the friendly gasoline station with refreshments and map directions. I don't want that From a robot. Jobs - jobs!!!
Many of these people are attorneys in the positions of power like Granholm. She is the one that laughs at everyone & thinks that we are all dumb. She has been caught being unethical & committed perjury then trying to cover it up by saying I thought or I forgot or I wasn't aware. She is such a liar and we don't believe her.
She kept saying they WANT to do all these things. That means its not being done. There's no plan to actually make it possible to achieve these necessities to make their plan feasible.
Reality is always a problem for idealistic people. Electric vehicles are valid for some situations. They are not a valid replacement for Hybrid or pure internal combustion engines.
@@hadrianwall-r7h not officially, but they withheld some of my tax refund to pay my car registration on a car that I already registered in Utah. They said it will take months to give me my money back
The official Department of Energy chart says 99.438% of greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide. Footnote: excludes water vapor. Water vapor is 95%; CO2 is 99.438% of the remaining 5%. Because of relative heat absorption coefficients, CO2 only accounts for 72.369% of the actual greenhouse effect from that 5%. Human activity produces only 3.22% of CO2. So the fraction of the total greenhouse effect caused by human-produced carbon dioxide is 3.22% times 72.369% times 5% equals 0.0011, effectively zero. Whatever is happening with the climate, it is not caused by any greenhouse effect from human-produced CO2.
I lied about having stocks in ev companies. It won’t have it again. My staff saved a spot for me to charge my ev. That won’t happen again. How many times are the American people gonna put up with this?!? Get rid of her.
The more I watch such interactions the less confident I become that more than lip service will occur. There doesn't seem to be incentive of any sort for these People to do more than this. None of these Individuals are feeling the pinch nor suffering in the way as many Americans do as this farce continues.
I have to remember all these lines: I dont recall, poor judgement, I remember it differently, that's your opinion, I cant discuss it. I will try these at work.😃
Driving around my semi-rural county, I have found exactly zero EV charging stations. I searched for "EV charging stations near me" and the closest one was 43 miles away. By comparison, there are ten gas stations within three miles of my location. Woke politicians and Washington Swamp Creatures can pontificate about EVs all they want, but until you build out the charging infrastructure to a similar level AND develop a different power source for the EV than a glorified flashlight battery, I just can't see the future of EVs in America.
What area? I find it hard to believe the closest fast charging station is 43 miles away, but there are some extremely rural charging deserts. The vast majority of charging is done at home, assuming you have a house with electricity.
If anyone believes that staffer acted unilaterally to "save" that charging station for her is pretty gullible. Also, the fact she had at least one ICE vehicle in her entourage shows she is fully aware of the limitations of the EV's and the impracticality of the mandates concerning them.
The duck goes, "Quack"! The cow goes , "Moo"! The dog goes , " Woof"! The Cat goes, "Meow" ! The lying judge/politician and everyone else , says "I don't recall...!
I heard about this a week or so ago. She was going cross country in a caravan to show how great the electric cars were. She found out the hard way, the country is not set up yet for electric cars. Also not mentioned here is the Staffer was using a gasoline powered car to block the charging spot/space. Also not mentioned a woman with an infant wanted to use the space to charge her eclectic car, when the driver of the "GASoline" powered car refused to move she "RIGHTFULLY" called the cops. Yes. the cops were called on Granholm.🤪🤪🤪
This liar obviously told her staff to block a charging station. She was making a video and wanted to show how easy it was to charge while traveling. The hypocrisy is staggering but also rampant,
It’s pretty funny how offended people who apparently hate electric cars are pissed when a potential charger is blocked improperly. I mean, it’s rude - but you need to pick your hill
@@stevenstefaniak6383 Perhaps you missed the part where they were blocking a family with a baby that was trying to recharge and get home! Here in Michigan, IF you can find a fast charger, at LEAST one of them is broken/inoperable. You have to wait AT LEAST 30 minutes to get enough charge to continue on your travel to the next large city to find another charger. EV's are garbage for any kind of long distance travel. They're really only useful as city vehicles with a max of 100 miles travel from your home. It's recommended to keep the batteries charged to 80% and not 100% because the last 20% takes so long to achieve and can actually damage the battery if always kept 100% charged. So advertised range is significantly LESS than advertised.
@@FastSS02what you write is somewhat true of the current state of non-Tesla EV fast charging. But it is not true at all for Teslas. Plenty of Superchargers that very rarely have any operational issue. Superchargers spaced at logical intervals for easy interstate highway travel. I’ve done a 1,000 mile road trip in a Tesla and it was ridiculously easy, with no added down time since charging took place during a bathroom break and a stop for fast food.
@@FastSS02 And then they tried to eat the baby for the adrenochrome! 🤦🏻 Glad to see Republicans still engaging in blatant anecdotal hyperbole. “Won’t someone think of the children!” So glad to see the sudden immense concern for EV charging etiquette among conservatives as well. 😂
In the United States, the general perjury statute under federal law classifies perjury as a felony and provides for a prison sentence of up to five years
I don't know this gentleman's name is....the Forbes banner hides it from view on the screen...but he nailed it!! This insanity has gotten so out of control and we Americans have had enough!!
If these people would do their research on these EV’s they would know it is an inert risk to America’s security. It has been proved that if too many of these vehicles are being charged this puts a strain on the electrical grid. A LOT MORE RESEARCH NEEDS TO GO INTO THESE CARS.Not to mention that if they impose this on our transportation industry people may starve. If it takes an hour or two or more to charge a regular car, how much time will it take to charge a semi truck? No thought at all about this. What fuel provides energy to the electric grid? Laughable.
@@02reaperproblem is, nuclear is an amazing alternative to fossil fuels, but environments don't want to allow new plants so they regulate them such that almost noone will build new ones.
@@02reaper Where dose the nuclear waste go and as it is there is a shortage of produced electricity and the cost is escalating there are huge issues that are detrimental to the security and sustainability of the nation .she is in way over her head .and dose not have a clue or an answer. God please help Us
@@02reaperNuclear makes the most sense, but you can't funnel massive amounts of money through it to the pockets of the crooked. Same reason they subsidize battery development companies for billions even though most of them have gone bankrupt multiple times.
For me to charge an EV vehicle I would have to drive no less than 30 miles one way to get to a charger. I live in a rural area and the infrastructure is so bad that the companies don't want to invest in upgrades already because it's not financially worthwhile and she expects companies to put chargers all over the place out here, she's nuts.
Ele cars don't work well in states that get cold in winter, either. In TX, there are so many backed up accidents, and ele car wouldn't make sense. You can creep along for over a hr. Sometimes, it could be lots longer and be on a over head ramp . Your battery would go dead, and there is no way to get it charged . These pile ups go lots of time for miles and no way off the freeway. Not to mention, can't afford them ,
I've researched this on a limited basis, and I couldn't believe the mineral requirement for one battery withstanding, the recycling of that same battery, 12 years later. They didn't even discuss the minor charging stations, they're rare and they're slow. The rental company shouldn't require a 70% return requirement, imagine that, that's the argument this Congressman had, his time and less business?
She’s talking about responsible extraction and partnering with our allies but there’s no other “partner” on a scale that is sufficient except China. Who else is doing the mineral extraction on a grand scale?
This is not a full story; The average rate of defective chargers is around 40% and therefore many people are forced to wait a considerable time even though there are available chargers that are defective. With these hypocrites, it is alright to reserve EV chargers since they seem to believe they are more important than an average American.
I am blown away by how politicians treat all of us like idiots. They continue to talk about EV’s and completely ignore the problems with our prehistoric infrastructure. This is not a game. EV’s are a debatable subject, but what they did was point out how archaic our infrastructure is and these politicians simply take the high road and ignore this. Fact: if our power grid went out, 90% of the population would die in one year. Isn’t this enough to get off your political high horse and address the real issue????
They never speak to how the goal is going to be achieved, just that they are working on it. The work done so far doesn't indicate that success is imminent.
I've been a self employed electrical contractor for 28 years in the unlimited commercial atmosphere. We're doing these level three chargers at several local car dealerships. Our utility company doesn't have the capacity, the panel manufacturers can't respond in a timely manner and is all a huge money grift. Not feasible now or 20 years from now. 😂 but please, keep paying us to hook em up!
I’ve worked for a commercially utility for ten years - and while we don’t have the capacity, we can add it easily and would love to do so. We won’t build it till the need is sure, but it’s our business to sell electricity. I don’t understand why you’re against growth
Are these installations you’re doing not permitted?? If the utility didn’t have the capacity, I would think they would be issuing dire warnings. That they are not means you are full of shit. The utilities want to sell more electricity and more EVs is a way to do that.
@@Sixotoo yeah it’s been made political like so many things. Anything to fight about. Facts don’t matter. Truth doesn’t matter. They think Joe Biden is personally coming to their house to take their truck.
We don't have the infrastructure for large-scale charging without creating chaos, but that might be a feature not a bug. We don't have the infrastructure for charging without implementing country-wide brownouts, but that might be a feature not a bug. American families don't have the financial security to be forced into replacing gas vehicles with electric vehicles without incurring massive consumer debt, but that might be a feature not a bug.
She just lied again. It's on video. She was holding the spot. This woman is so corrupt nasty woman. She wld hang anyone to be tough. She lies continually. Fire her.
Electric vehicles are just another means of more control. They can (and will) just shut the power off whenever they please. Period. Electricity is produced from coal and oil BTW.
Oooooh - “They” Sounds scary. There are about 3,000 utilities in the US. Are “they” all in on this conspiracy to…not sell the power they’re in business to sell? Your lack of critical thinking is extraordinary. Btw almost no electricity is generated with oil. About 1/2 of 1%.
@@timsebring4776 coal is an increasingly shrinking portion of the electrical grid, majority is natural gas, in the us 20-25% is nuclear. I’m not aware of any oil fired power plants - the thing about controlling people through power supply is too dumb to confront on the internet

This EV program is like jumping out of and airplane with materials to make a parachute and saying "I don't have one made yet but I'll work on it on the way down". This is shear lunisy. The our enemies must be laughing their butts off as they watch us destroy ourselves.
