Anyone that disobeys the orders of Biden is doing the right thing.
The Biden administration informed lawmakers Monday that it will no longer
award a $200 million grant to a Chinese-linked energy technology firm in
an unexpected reversal.
In a call with congressional staff Monday evening, Department of Energy
(DOE) officials said Microvast, a Texas-based maker of technology for
electric vehicle batteries, won't receive the lucrative grant which had
been earmarked under the 2021 infrastructure package. Republican lawmakers
have for months called on the agency to rescind the grant after its
Chinese ties were revealed last year.
"As responsible stewards of American taxpayer dollars, the Department of
Energy maintains a rigorous review process prior to the release of any
awarded funds, and it is not uncommon for entities selected to participate
in award negotiations under a DOE competitive funding opportunity to not ultimately receive an award," a DOE spokesperson told Fox News Digital in
a statement.
"The Department can confirm that it has elected to cancel negotiations and
not to award Microvast funds from this competitive funding opportunity,"
the statement continued.
