PA Gov. Claims Victory in Un-Pausing $2B in Energy-Related Pymts

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro can rest easy now that he's got his "fix" of $2.1 billion in federal taxpayer money promised to him by the Bidenistas before they left town. As you may recall, the Trump administration put an immediate pause on some federal funds after Elon Musk's DOGE kids discovered massive fraud in government programs. The pause sent Shapiro into a tailspin like a junkie cut off from his drug supplier, so he sued to restore his money fix (see PA Gov. Sues Trump Admin for Pausing $2B in Energy-Related Payments). As we said then, the pause was temporary, giving the Trump team time to sort out the fraudsters from legitimate payments. The Trump team has restarted the payments to PA, so Governor Huckster, er, a, Shapiro, is claiming victory. There was never any doubt the payments would restart once they were validated as legitimate.
