Episode Synopsis

An audit revealed $800 million in misspent taxpayer dollars at the Department of Energy—and that's just the beginning. In this episode, Jeremiah Mosteller, Policy Director at Americans for Prosperity, joins David From to expose how the agency charged with America’s energy future is riddled with waste, inefficiency, and programs that benefit big corporations at your expense.
From a federal power-marketing agency selling below-market rates to utilities, to EV subsidies going to companies pulling back on production, the DOE’s track record raises serious questions. And with the total potential taxpayer savings in this series now at $549.5 billion, it’s clear there’s a lot more to cut.
