Ruling Class Stupidity: Biden Energy Secretary Wants U.S. Military to Adopt an All-Electric Vehicle Fleet in 7 Years

Ruling Class Stupidity: Biden Energy Secretary Wants U.S. Military to Adopt an All-Electric Vehicle Fleet in 7 Years. By Kristina Wong.

Biden Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm testified Wednesday to the Senate Armed Services Committee that she supported requiring the United States military to move to an all-electric vehicle fleet by 2030. …

“I think energy security is achieved when we have homegrown, clean energy that is abundant, like you see in Iowa”

If you can bear it:

Unsustainable, unaffordable, and terrible performance. Imagine the charging and battery requirements! The world’s copper reserves aren’t great enough, let along lithium. And in just 7 years… This is religious nuttery, even if carbon dioxide did cause most of the global warming.

A retired Army colonel tweeted:

.@SecGranholm knows zero about battlefield realities. There’s zero chance of our military forces being able to field an all EV fleet in a mere 7 years. More importantly such an effort would make the military almost completely dependent on China for its source of fuel.

JW tweets:

Asinine.

As a former military member and Pentagon officer, this is what you get when you have political appointees appointed into these SCS positions – someone brain dead in charge of things but they are only in the position because they/family donated; fill a DEI quota; or related to a politician.

How do you think they will react when they find the whole carbon dioxide theory of global warming is due to a mistake in the climate models?
