Let's get this straight...

Trump would rather pay US$1BILLION of public funds to BLOCK renewable energy and deepen deadly fossil fuel pollution and dependency...

than invest a SINGLE CENT to protect people from higher bills and worsening weather extremes.

It’s almost as if he’s entirely in the pocket of oil and gas corporations or something

Trump administration will pay a French company $1 billion in taxpayer funds to not build wind farms

@greenpeace thats a bit misleading, AFAIK trump is just returning the money that the French company paid for the lease of the area?

I mean, it doesn't make it any less stupid. But kind of changes *how* its stupid.

I guess the lesson is, the orange moron can't do anything but stupid shit. One way or another.

@greenpeace Trump isn't paying anything, so he doesn't care about the cost. Other people are NPC's to him.

Koch Political Operation Spent Nearly $550 Million During 2024 Cycle

The huge sum shows that while the Koch network may not hold significant power at high levels of the Republican Party, it remains a financial juggernaut.
