President Joe Biden spent his first term forcing electric vehicles into the national bloodstream like a mandatory prescription. Washington threw billions in tax dollars at companies to build EVs Americans never asked for and never lined up to buy. The White House insisted the future was electric even as dealership lots turned into graveyards of unsold battery-powered cars.
But this week, one of America’s largest automakers sent a message louder than any speech from the Oval Office. General Motors just put $550 million behind a plan that blows Biden’s green dreams to pieces: a massive expansion of gas-powered vehicle production.
This comes after GM already committed $4 billion to expand internal-combustion vehicle manufacturing across several states. While Biden preached about climate mandates, GM quietly doubled down on the engines that actually keep the company alive — and keep American workers employed.
