The Pentagon wants to go green with Chinese panels:

"The Defense Department will install solar panels on the Pentagon, part of the Biden administration’s plan to promote clean energy and 'reestablish the federal government as a sustainability leader,'" PBS reports. "The Pentagon is one of 31 government sites that are receiving $104 million in Energy Department grants that are expected to double the amount of carbon-free electricity at federal facilities and create 27 megawatts of clean-energy capacity while leveraging more than $361 million in private investment, the Energy Department said." Republicans in Congress are trying to stop the project from going through. "We write today to express strong concerns regarding implementation of the Biden administration’s executive order to make the federal government carbon neutral by 2050. As part of its green agenda, at the start of this year the Department of Defense announced that it would install solar panels on the Pentagon," House Republicans Robert Wittman, Ben Cline, Jen Kiggans and H. Morgan Griffin wrote in a letter to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin this week. "We are deeply concerned that the Department of Defense and the Department of Energy are not demonstrating appropriate attention to the economic and national security risks posed by pursuing this initiative when Chinese solar manufacturers continue to dominate the marketplace, historically violate U.S. trade laws, and advance the surveillance activities of Chinese military and intelligence agencies."

It's just a green partnership...
