Mike Rogers: People can't afford EVs; lithium batteries sales helps China

The Biden administration is on a mission to slice into the carbon emissions across this country and moving the motoring public into electric vehicles is a key component of that mission. Rogers says there is one thing wrong with that policy: people can't afford EVs. He fears the money being sent to China for lithium batteries needed to build EVs is only being used to build up the communists' military arsenal at the expense of the U.S.

James Craig: Biden is beholden to the far left climate change agenda

During the Trump administration, America achieved energy independence. Joe Biden, beholden to the far left climate change/ESG agenda, has done everything in his power to stymie investment in American energy, stopping many large scale projects in their tracks. Policies that work to increase the supply of energy thus have an instrumental role to play in bringing down the price of energy, translating to more dollars in Americans' pockets that they don't need to be spending at the gas pump.
