The Trump administration just paid Invenergy $765 million to cancel four wind projects. That brings the running total to roughly $2.5 billion in taxpayer money spent to stop energy from being built. Think about that. At a time when electricity demand is rising,

Paid from what fund? Where is this money coming from?

This happening while we’re distracted by goddamn debacle at the Reflecting Pool.

No need to think. It's a nod to the oil industry; stupid if you use logic.

I'm too FUBARED to look up Jessica Chastain's SNL's skit from Orange Hitler's first term. It's "Nothing Matters Anymore." I think of it so often. FUCKING REALITY TV!

I’m pretty sure we are going to need the alternative and renewable energy projects in addition to the original energy sources.

the Trump administration is spending billions to reduce the amount of power that could reach the grid. Trump has spent years attacking wind turbines as ugly and inefficient. He is entitled to his opinions about how they look. He is not entitled to make taxpayers finance those opinions.

Seven states have already sued over earlier agreements. Federal courts have repeatedly found legal defects in this administration’s efforts to halt offshore wind development.

Claw back those billions from both the recipients and the Trumps

This is so f*ing stupid. Wait until a future admin uses tax money to those same companies to incentivize them to build.

That’s $7.14 taken from the pockets of each and every American man, woman, and child. Excluding, of course, billionaires.

Fighting windmills... reminds me of another Don character.

How much did Big Oil give Trump?

The inevitable result of putting #FossilFuel #Ideologues in charge. We can laugh. US citizens must be $¥#%€@ furious!!

Ah, but think of the countless billions that the fossil fuel companies will make!

@warren.senate.gov @hickenlooper.bsky.social @bennet.senate.gov @schiff.senate.gov @whitehouse.senate.gov

Great for the oil and gas industry though. They are getting their money’s worth

Lede story on BBC this a.m. is lethal heat wave in France. #dontlookup

If trump were forward thinking, he would have promoted solar power. That would have made the Strait of Hormuz less important! But the idiot has painted himself into a dunce’s corner! As long as oil reigns, trump’s greed will continue to render him a very slow learner.

The point is to up jack prices to benefit the billionaires who own Trump. Also, they want to bankrupt and destroy as many people as they can. Raising the prices of power, food, etc, beyond most people is one way of doing that. Taking their healthcare & knowingly spreading disease is another.

All because windmills hurt his feelings at his golf club And the Republican Party is too cucked to stop him, despite Oklahoma and Texas being the largest states for Wind Power

I am assuming that once he is out of power, we will pay these companies billions to start up their work again.

There are sooooo many people who need to be put in public stocks on the Ellipse.

Hellish.

It's vandalism

most of us saw this coming when he took office, wtf...I just LOVE how we're all gonna be "shocked" at this shit...give me a fuckin break

WTF

It’s one of the most bizarre and nakedly death-cult-ideological things I’ve ever seen. I’m not an expert, has anything like this ever happened before anywhere?

Start posting on YouTube, just talking about these issues. People would go nuts and support you

@timmiller.bsky.social here is a man with a clear message to share on your podcast

Makes my head hurt.

im confused at why a company would agree to a bribe to put itself eternally out of business in an industry where they stand to make money forever for the reason stated: the demand is rising, that means more business forever.

Understand the rationale...it's solely to benefit fossil fuel entities that donated to "its" campaign. Quid pro quo... If we're still in existence come January 2029 the SANE CHIEF EXECUTIVE & associates can begin the LABORIOUS PROJECT of reversing ALL said edicts...driven solely by greed/avarice

If only Congress were alive to see what's happening

The US is a totally failed society, enabling a regim as the current one.

This should infuriate all of us!

Doing Big Oils bidding...

Fuck that orange dude

So have the courts struck down the money to cancel wild projects? It would seem to me that they would need to have those funds appropriated by Congress...

Makes a man wanna snort a mountain of that sweet sweet clean coal. God I love eveything about this reality.

Angry and disgusted that Congress does not stop Trump!

With what specifically allocated funds is this payment being made, and on what legal authority?

Ответ для TomB.

That's my question. I've always considered the deficit to be a minor problem, but if we find out in 3 years that the Federal Budget has been shredded and nobody actually knows how many $ Trump has spent then the AA+ rating is going to implode and the interest payments become a major issue.

What are you doing about it, for us?

My daughter suggested some democratic aligned group needs to start a taxpayer waste calculator to show Americans how much of their taxpayer money is being spent and wasted by this incompetent and corrupt Trump administration.

This is not complicated: fossil fuel companies bribe Chump to do their bidding, Chump cancels green energy projects that would compete with his bribing patrons.

IMPEACH AND REMOVE.

Thanks, Saudi Arabia!!! Wonder if Jared had anything to do with this.

Yall realize the sabotage is by design

Yes, but the Trump administration is HELPING IRAN SELL OIL so they can attack us and our allies! You know, to temporarily lower gas prices. When he is gone, there will be a huge mess to clean up.

Ответ для Honor your oath of office or resign.

The mess is here

Congress is rolling over in its grave.

This is absolutely bizarre and radically stupid in every sense.

We want wind energy

#WFA Waste Fraud Abuse

Once again we have failed to become not reliant on the oil industry. Last time was in 1981 when Reagan was president. Biden tried to get us on the right path to energy independence but he did not have time to get the alternates set in place. And now it is all once again being reversed. Sad.

Remember Trump never has done one thing for America. He serves his billionaire and corporate friends and Putin. He doesn’t care about the American people at all.

I think he understands that he's leaving this planet and if he has to go, he's determined to kill it and everything on it.

Hey, it’s not HIS money.

That’s a direct subsidy to oil & coal & other existing energy generators.

How does 🍊🐷 have our checkbook? How are these funds released?

Ответ для olivialane

Russell Vought - OMB. One of the guys from Project 2025. Plus a Republican Congress that are in bed with him rather than working for their constituents. 😡😡

That’s as stupid as when we used to have to pay to keep our names out of the Yellow Pages.

This shd be a HUGE story! $2.5 BILLION OF TAXPAYER $$ TO STOP CHEAPER ECO ENERGY! @maddow.bsky.social @stephruhle.bsky.social @joe-scarborough.bsky.social @crampell.bsky.social @velshi.com @jonlemire.bsky.social @lukerussert.bsky.social @lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social @arimelber.bsky.social Pls cover!

Why the hell didn‘t the company sue to keep those wind energy projects running?

You should call your member of congress ... oh, oh no. Nevermind.

And we're being crushed by oil prices.

It makes no sense, I honestly don’t know why we’re allowing it to happen.

1) Again, I ask…. Are there no billionaires on the side of saving Mother Earth, who would pay these companies MORE to save these projects? Or are most of the billionaires right wing? (Yeh…ANTI-tax-the-rich). 2) Again I say… Blue states must find a way to #WithholdOurFedTaxes & invest in renewables!

Ответ для katherinemary

No. Every single billionaire is a blight. Literally. Not a single one of them is salvageable. Unless for organ donation.

That makes no sense! Why can't t that be stopped?!!!
