House Energy and Commerce Committee Republicans are finally taking action against the swamp – literally – as they launch a full investigation into how Washington DC's water authority dumped a staggering 243 million gallons of raw sewage into the Potomac River.
In an exclusive letter first obtained by the Washington Examiner, Chairman Brett Guthrie is demanding answers from DC Water about the catastrophic failures that led to this environmental disaster. The key question? Could this massive contamination have been prevented if DC's bureaucrats had actually done their jobs?
This is exactly the kind of government incompetence that President Trump's second term was elected to clean up. While the left preaches about climate change and environmental protection, their own agencies are literally poisoning America's waterways through sheer negligence.
Liberal Hypocrisy on Full Display
Think about the irony here, Patriots. The same Democrats who want to shut down American energy production and force us into expensive green energy boondoggles can't even manage basic sewage treatment in their own backyard. If they can't handle waste management in DC, how can we trust them with America's entire energy grid?
"This investigation will get to the bottom of whether DC Water's failures put public health at risk and what they're doing to prevent future disasters," a committee source told the Washington Examiner.
The Potomac River serves millions of Americans, providing drinking water and recreation for families across the region. But DC's bureaucratic bungling has now contaminated this vital waterway with enough sewage to fill nearly 400 Olympic-sized swimming pools.
This is what happens when government grows too big and accountability disappears. Under the Trump-Vance administration's government efficiency initiatives led by Elon Musk, it's time to drain the swamp – starting with the agencies that are literally creating environmental disasters through their incompetence.
How many more "accidents" will it take before Americans demand real accountability from these failed institutions? The House GOP investigation is just the beginning.
