‘Let it Burn’: Fire Departments Ill-Prepared for Electric Vehicles Boom

(Rick Moran – PJ Media) So electric vehicles are going to save the planet, eh? Somebody forgot to tell Joe Biden something important when he authorized the spending of tens of billions of dollars for EV subsidies, more billions to build charging stations (still not enough), and still more billions to auto manufacturers to “incentivize” the design and building of more and more EV’s.
