🚨Breaking: Whistleblower Speaks Out About Issues at Kentucky Ford Battery Plant
from The Andrew Cooperrider Show · host Andrew Cooperrider
- Products were manufactured for no one in order to keep billions in taxpayer funds, with some spontaneously catching fire and requiring forklifts to move flaming pallets into water dunk tanks. -Mold stalagmites are growing in an abandoned building that hundreds of millions in taxpayer funds were spent constructing just a few years ago.These are just some of the issues at the now-shuttered and currently being refitted Ford battery plant in Glendale, Kentucky.The state of Kentucky gave Ford $350 million in taxpayer funds to build these plants in the form of free land, taxpayer-funded training, and a $250 million forgivable loan. The federal government gave them billions more. However, in order to keep these funds, Ford had to hit certain job targets. This led to the manufacturing of batteries for no one, with these fire hazards simply being stored on site.Whistleblower Thomas Walling, a former member of the Emergency Response Team at the plant, is speaking out about the concerns all Kentuckians should have and the waste of taxpayer funds that has occurred.He believes the plant may bounce back, but the question remains: how much of our tax dollars has been wasted chasing the EV pipe dream in Kentucky?
