Biden $2T energy plan has AOC-green tinge

Joe Biden unveiled a $2 trillion energy plan Tuesday with a heavy focus on the Green New Deal agenda being pushed by QueensBronx Rep. Alexandria OcasioCortez and the far-left flank of his party.

Speaking in Wilmington, Del., Biden promised a “clean energy revolution,” which he said would deliver millions of jobs, as he attacked President Trump for once calling climate change a “hoax.”

Biden detailed what he called a pro-union platform that would replace the US government’s car fleet with American-made electric vehicles and includes a pledge to create a “carbon pollution-free electric sector by the year 2025.”

“There is no more consequential challenge that we must meet in the next decade than the onrushing climate crisis. Left unchecked, it is literally an existential threat to the health of our planet and to our very survival,” said Biden, 77.

Biden promised to “create millions of high-paying union jobs by building a modern infrastructure and a clean energy future” and described his vision of a US covered in 500,000 electric car-charging stations and thriving factories producing green products.

Biden singled out a 2013 tweet in which Trump described global warming as an “expensive hoax.” However, at a White House event in January, Trump said he now believes it is real.

Biden’s announcement comes as the presidential wannabe courts lefty darlings including OcasioCortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) in the hope that they will steer young voters his way in November.
