We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, January 6, 1941
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, 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. The administration has cited national security concerns while providing little public evidence to support them, and judges have said they were not convinced.
Strip away the politics and what remains is hard to defend.
Billions in taxpayer money paid to private companies to cancel planned energy projects during a period of rising demand.
Governments usually spend money to build things.
This administration is spending billions to make sure some things never get built.

The lady with the funny laugh was going to give Americans buying their first homes $25,000 each... and it would cost 100 billion over 10 years.
Trump just gave 3X that amount to Iran. 👍
Rep. Robert Garcia visited Ghislaine Maxwell's prison today.
"It looks like a pristine park."
She's the only convicted sex offender among 600+ women there. No one could explain why she was transferred.
Todd Blanche (Trump's former lawyer, now DAG) is being questioned.
I love that a Black woman is responsible for this. 😂
Shout out to @RepBeatty for filing the lawsuit to get Trump‘s name removed from the Kennedy Center
Honor Guards are trained for state funerals, fallen soldier ceremonies, and dignitary protocol. That is their sacred operational mandate. Trump just deployed them as set dressing for a UFC card. You don’t get to call yourself a patriot and applaud this.

George Washington declined to be featured on currency when he was living, fearing it would be reminiscent of a monarch.
Congress in 1866 passed the Thayer amendment, which stated "no portrait or likeness of any living person shall be engraved or placed upon any of the bonds, securities, notes, or postal currency of the United States."
It's a blessing that no children were shot or killed in the Islamic Center of SD attack today.
But it's wrong to say they weren't wounded.
Everytime a child is exposed to this kind of terror and violence, they're injured. And it happens far too often.
We shouldn't accept it as normal.
This entire speech is an illegal violation of the Hatch Act. But, more than that it’s another desecration of the military by the most unfit immoral man to ever hold this job.
MAGA grandma rips driveway marker stakes out of Black neighbor's yard—while calling him N-word.

She was also elected as a Boardman Township Trustee from 2005 to 2009 in Mahoning County, Ohio.
Trump: "There's no oil coming out of Kharg Island. People are finding other places to buy oil, like Texas. So I don't want to say we're making a fortune, because if I say that, they're gonna say 'he forgets about the little man with the $4 gasoline.'"
Ballrooms.
Arches.
UFC fights on the White House lawn.
Reflecting pool makeovers.
These are Trump’s priorities.
Not healthcare.
Not housing.
Not gas prices.
Not groceries.

Trump's DOJ — negotiating with itself — may hand Trump $10 billion of YOUR money from his IRS lawsuit
We need to shout this grift from the rooftops -- Trump has already raked in billions on the side
Now he wants taxpayers to fund his retribution campaign too ... Why? -TN
