Puerto Rico to cancel Whitefish Energy contract

Thank God .. Puerto Rico put a stop to the outrageous payoff.

Puerto Rico to cancel Whitefish Energy contract

Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rossello Sunday called on a government board to cancel a $300 million contract with the Montana company Whitefish Energy to rebuild the hurricane-ravaged island's power grid. Rossello said the contract became a distraction after members of Congress and FEMA raised concerns. Whitefish had only two full-time employees when Maria made landfall, and the company's largest project before this was a $1.3 million contract in Arizona.

Update: Puerto Rico's power authority says it will end the contract once ongoing work is completed. [Go deeper: A breakdown of the contract]

Just another example of cronyism in this WH.

Personally? I think that PR should take up Mr. Musk on his offer to rebuild their power grid.

It would probably be cheaper, and be better built than the current contractors could do it.

That's fucking ridiculous.

It's an example of Puerto Rico's dysfunctional government.

Of course.

Could you explain why you think that is germane to this particular topic? In particular, please explain how Trump cronyism forced Puerto Rico's government to hire Whitefish Electric?

 

[saveliberty]

Whitefish found the work on Indeed. When did this cronyism force P.R. to do anything?

Please explain to me why this is cronyism. They are friends of friends of relatives of friends of the Trump family. And, point out one minuscule time when the White House had anything to do with the contract.

Puerto Rico Cancels Whitefish Energy Contract to Rebuild Power Lines

Democrats on the mainland and opposition politicians in Puerto Rico questioned the deal and were alarmed to see that the company’s chief executive, Andy Techmanski, came from the same small town in Montana as Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke. In an interview shortly after securing the contract, Mr. Techmanski told a local news station that he had been in touch with Mr. Zinke for “more resources.” Mr. Zinke’s son worked for Whitefish last summer.

Now Puerto Rico is a territory of the US of A. And, as bad as the treasonous fat senile old orange clown would like that, he has not achieved that yet.

Bullshit! The party of slavery rules PR's government. Trump is anti-slavery.

The Democrats/Progressives rule in Puerto Rico. They are the ones who got caught with their hands in the cookie jar.

Now that the Clintons have been outed, if they went to Haiti today the Haitian people would probably tear them limb from limb.

The Drumpf Regime is so corrupt, there's still a bunch of people in the administration who used private jets under sketchy conditions.
