GM Just Gave Biden’s Green Energy Dreams a Half-Billion Dollar Middle Finger
The Biden-Harris administration spent four years trying to force Americans into electric vehicles.
They threw billions in taxpayer money at companies to build EVs nobody wanted.
And GM just announced one major investment that proved the whole green energy scam was a disaster.
General Motors dropped another $550 million into American plants to build more gas-powered vehicles.
The investment targets GM's Parma Metal Center in Ohio and the Romulus Propulsion Systems plant near Detroit.
This comes on top of the $4 billion GM already committed to expanding gas vehicle production across multiple states.
The Detroit automaker is doing what Joe Biden and Kamala Harris said was impossible — bringing manufacturing jobs back to America by building the cars Americans actually want to buy.
GM Bets Big on Internal Combustion While Biden's EV Dreams Crash and Burn
The numbers tell the story Biden doesn't want you to hear.
GM's taking $250 million of that new investment and putting it into the Parma Metal Center in Ohio.¹
That facility cranks out more than 100 million stamped metal parts every year and processes over 400 tons of steel daily.²
Another $300 million is going to the Romulus plant near Detroit to expand production of 10-speed automatic transmissions for full-size pickups and SUVs.³
These are the vehicles that kept GM profitable while Biden and his climate cult threw money at electric cars that sat on dealer lots collecting dust.
The plant that really exposes Biden's green energy lie is GM's Orion Assembly facility.
Biden's crew had that plant earmarked for electric pickup trucks.
Now it's being retooled to build gas-powered Chevrolet Silverados, GMC Sierras, and Cadillac Escalades — the exact vehicles environmentalists hate because Americans love them.⁴
Production of the gas-powered Chevrolet Blazer is moving from Mexico to Spring Hill, Tennessee in 2027.⁵
That's American jobs coming back from Mexico because President Trump's tariffs made it make sense again.
The $1.6 Billion Wake-Up Call Democrats Refuse to Answer
Here's what Biden and Harris never told you about their electric vehicle mandate.
GM just took a $1.6 billion hit scaling back its EV plans after Trump eliminated Biden's $7,500 EV tax credits that were propping up sales.⁶
The company blamed "stalled consumer adoption and regulatory changes" for having to write down assets from EV production capacity nobody needs.⁷
Translation: Americans don't want electric vehicles when they're not being bribed with their own tax dollars to buy them.
GM's canceling the BrightDrop electric van because even commercial fleets won't touch EVs without massive subsidies.⁸
The company is cutting production of electric Cadillacs and postponing second shifts at plants that were supposed to be cranking out EVs by now.⁹
EVs made up just 6% of GM's U.S. vehicle sales in 2025 — up from 4% the year before but nowhere close to the revolution Biden promised.¹⁰
The United Auto Workers praised Trump's tariffs because they know what Biden never understood.
UAW President Shawn Fain said GM's investment proves "strategic auto tariffs work" and will create "thousands of good paying union jobs."¹¹
Biden spent four years telling workers their future was in electric vehicles built in China.
Trump spent four years bringing back the manufacturing jobs that built the American middle class.
GM's half-billion dollar bet on gas-powered vehicles proves which vision Americans actually want.
The green energy scam cost taxpayers billions while car companies played along to collect subsidies.
Now that Trump's back and the subsidies are gone, everyone's admitting what conservatives knew all along — Americans want trucks and SUVs that work, cost less, and don't leave them stranded looking for charging stations.
GM's senior vice president admitted the real priority: "When we invest in our workforce, we're not only building great vehicles — we're helping secure the future of American manufacturing."¹²
That future runs on gasoline, not Biden's fantasies about wind and solar panels.
