Tara reacts to shocking new numbers showing a collapse in fully electric vehicle sales after the $7,500 federal tax credit expired 💥. With Ford EV sales plunging, billions in losses piling up, and mandates unraveling, Tara argues this wasn’t a market failure — it was a policy fantasy colliding with reality.
From EV mandates and carbon “pretend” politics ⚡➡️🛢️ to fears of grid overload, rolling blackouts, and government control, this episode breaks down why Americans are rejecting forced electrification — and what almost happened if the election had gone the other way.

💬 Standout Quotes
🗣️ “This isn’t a slowdown — it’s a bloodbath.”
🗣️ “You’re not carbon-free. You just don’t see it anymore.”
🗣️ “This was never about electricity — it was about control.”
🗣️ “Subsidies didn’t create demand. They hid the truth.”
🧠 Key Takeaway
When government forces markets instead of listening to consumers, reality eventually wins. EVs weren’t rejected — mandates were. And once the subsidies disappeared, so did the illusion.
⚡ EV sales collapsed the moment subsidies ended — and the numbers are brutal.
