Corrupt Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) had a major meltdown after EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin took him to task for his alleged corruption and wasting taxpayer money. Whitehouse is alleged to have diverted millions of dollars to a climate NGO that employs his wife at a lavish salary.
For context the Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT) exposed Whitehouse’s alleged corruption in February 25, 2025, expose where they explained, “Sen. Whitehouse appears to have violated the Senate Ethics Rules on conflicts of interest by advocating and voting for legislation that resulted in nearly $7 million being paid in the fall of 2024 to an organization his wife works for.”
Starting off his May 21, 2025, demolition, Zeldin stated, “We have a zero tolerance. We inherit something we don’t care about, wasting money… Wasting money, but the Trump administration does senator?… Our schedule is publicly released. We don’t put on the schedule every single … [I’m] telling you that I was reviewing this stuff and working on it almost every single day.”
Rudely speaking over the EPA official, the Democrat melted down while yelling a series of irrelevant questions. Whitethosue interrupted, “Visual review of everything. And that doesn’t work for you when? When did you conduct an individualized review? Will you show me your schedules? Will you show me your schedules?”
Hammering away at the woke democrat Zeldin continued undeterrred, “The problem was before this committee, I was asked by Senator Ricketts, if confirmed, would I immediately make this a top priority, to go through all the grant funding going through EPA to make sure that we are cracking down on every waste, every aspect of abuse.”
Demolishing the Rhide Island senator, he explained his reasoning, “Because I have to come back here in front of Senator Ricketts today, and even though you don’t care about wasting tax dollars, Senator Ricketts does. And the problem do my job because the American public and the problem us not wasting tax dollars.”
Still not done taking the corrupt senator to task, Zeldin said, “That concept just escapes you like that’s even a possibility. The only thing about that is that that’s not true. 99% of the story that’s not true according to your own you don’t grasp testimony. I don’t know what to say to you….” Interrupting the EPA head, the woke senator rudely interjected, “You’re insisting on the fact.”

Firing back with an epic comeback, the EPA director said, “I’m insisting on the facts. That’s exactly what I’m insisting on. I’m insisting on the facts, and I now have three different versions of the facts that Department of Justice lawyers are working on. Everyone admitted that what you’re saying, we’re not going to waste dollars just because you insist on EPA lighting taxpayer dollars on fire, the American taxpayers.”

Concluding his epic rebuke, Zeldin said, “They put President Trump in office because of people like you. They have Republicans in charge of the House and Senate because of people like you. Because you don’t care about 99% of this story. You don’t want me to go through the list of all the evidence of waste and abuse.”
