Kamala Harris Pulls Another Flip-Flop, the Second One Today
In keeping with the Harris campaign's habit of not knowing what it believes, a new flip-flop from Kamala Harris has hit the inboxes.
According to Amber Duke of the Spectator, the Harris campaign is now saying that she doesn't support the electric vehicle mandate.
As you may be aware, the EV mandate was a Biden/Harris administration pet project. The mandate revolved around forcing auto companies to rapidly create enough EV's without any guarantee of purchase, causing a huge lack of funds for the automotive industry that could cost jobs. It was a horribly thought out and planned mandate that eventually Biden walked back and was later kneecapped by the CARS act.
This mandate was the Biden/Harris administration's attempt to slap their name on one of the biggest pushes for a more "green" society, but due to their lack of knowledge about how economics works, it ended up being a disaster.
It's not exactly something Harris wants to put her name on during the campaign, however — and stop me if you've heard this one before — her name already is on something very similar.
As Duke points out, The Zero-Emissions Vehicles Act of 2019, was cosponsored by Kamala Harris when she was a senator back in California.
In fact, Harris has been a huge proponent of putting EV's on the road, especially school buses.
Back in July, the Washington Free Beacon reported that Harris's billion-dollar effort to get thousands of electric buses rolled out across the nation ended up being yet another green energy clown show:
As part of the first tranche of Clean School Bus program funding two years ago, Harris and EPA administrator Michael Regan unleashed nearly $1 billion in federal rebates for 389 school districts across all 50 states to help deliver a total 2,463 electric school buses. According to federal data reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon, just 27 of those districts have proven to the EPA that their buses were delivered and that their diesel-fueled buses being replaced have been discarded.
Collectively, those districts have deployed a total of 60 battery-electric or low-emissions propane-fueled school buses. And 55 additional districts have pulled out of the program, according to other federal data shared with the Free Beacon, citing a variety of technological and infrastructure concerns. In other words: More school districts have withdrawn from the program than proven that they have completed it.
So, Kamala Harris went from being an EV warrior to someone who isn't about to push this nonsense she's been pushing relentlessly during an election season. It's too politically risky, as "I keep trying to push failed attempts to push enviro-wackadooism that could potentially put Americans out of work" doesn't exactly sell well.
But don't think she's done with this nonsense. Not even for a moment. She doesn't support it now, but if she were to win in November, you can bet your bottom dollar that she'd be back on the idea that she can create an America that rolls strictly on EV's, economy and logistics be damned.
