					<description><![CDATA[This needs to be publicized
&lt;a href=&quot;https://wattsupwiththat.com/2025/05/25/the-big-beautiful-bill-climate-and-energy-provisions/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow ugc&quot;&gt;https://wattsupwiththat.com/2025/05/25/the-big-beautiful-bill-climate-and-energy-provisions/&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;The “Big Beautiful Bill” — Climate And Energy Provisions&lt;/strong&gt;
…
&lt;blockquote&gt;
Somewhat to my surprise, the BBB as passed by the House appears to repeal and rescind essentially all of the green energy handouts from the IRA. The IRA had added a collection of new sections to the Clean Air Act to create various massive funds for handouts to “greenhouse gas reduction” efforts. Go to section 42101 et seq. of the BBB (you will need to scroll down a long, long way to get there), and you will find that one by one these handouts will be repealed. Excerpt:
Excerpt:
SEC. 42101. REPEAL AND RESCISSION RELATING TO CLEAN HEAVY-DUTY 
              VEHICLES.
   (a) Repeal.--Section 132 of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7432) is 
repealed.
  (b) Rescission.--The unobligated balance of any amounts made 
available under section 132 of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7432) (as 
in effect on the day before the date of enactment of this Act) is 
rescinded.
SEC. 42102. REPEAL AND RESCISSION RELATING TO GRANTS TO REDUCE AIR 
              POLLUTION AT PORTS.
   (a) Repeal.--Section 133 of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7433) is 
repealed.
   (b) Rescission.--The unobligated balance of any amounts made 
available under section 133 of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7433) (as

					<description><![CDATA[Agreed. I have long suspected Barack was light in the loafers and the consequences thereof.

Nonetheless, he has shown a certain amount of class and a sense of humor compared to Michelle.

I can&#039;t think of anyone as privileged as Michelle, except Harry and Meghan, who has complained so much for so little.]]></description>
