The Trump administration is using national security concerns to reshape organized labor, with the UAW especially vulnerable. The implications extend well beyond the controversial auto and student workers union.

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker this month delivered the final indignity to one of the Biden administration’s green energy bets: Lion Electric’s former U.S. electric bus factory is being taken over by a manufacturer of conventional diesel equipment.

The U.S., Canadian, and Quebec governments poured hundreds of millions into Lion. School districts were promised buses that never arrived. In Quebec, roughly 1,200 electric buses were pulled off the road after a fire triggered safety concerns, canceling scores of bus routes and even forcing some school service centres to cancel classes.

Lion was hardly the Biden administration’s only EV debacle. Proterra followed a similar path—subsidized demand, rapid scaling, and eventual collapse.

The corporate media has largely treated these failures as nothingburgers. The policymakers who committed taxpayer money on both sides of the border should be held accountable.
