The Spin
Left narrative
With Congress dragging its heels, the White House is taking the initiative to modernize the country's electrical grid at a crucial time, as a major rise in data centers and AI is going to require more electricity. Climate change-denying legislators may be leaving their constituents in the dark after major storms, but the Biden administration is taking action to help all Americans.
Right narrative
This is nothing but a huge corporate tax scam meant to prevent huge companies focused on so-called "green" energy from paying their fair share in taxes. These companies are profiting off of climate hysteria while being subsidized by the tax dollars of hard-working Americans. The Biden administration is disingenuously participating in public-private sector climate grift.
