In addition to refusing all permits, a very large wind farm close to completion was suspended of coast of RI. It is a massive starvation of US energy while it is a supposed national security top priority to develop US controlled Skynet.

China installed more solar in the first half of 2025, as entire US capacity.

Well, you have to remember that they're Fascists, and Fascists aren't known for forward planning or thinking. They're known for being stupid reactionaries who lash out at anything they don't like and burn down whatever they can. This is, unfortunately, par for the course, REGARDLESS of what they say their goals actually are.

stupid

intentionally protecting and expanding oil gas and coal profits can serve to keep the flow of bribes, and be smart that way. Bankrupting everyone who ever tried to develop clean energy is a purposeful plan consistent with bribery flow from climate terrorism.

“REGARDLESS of what they say their goals actually are”

Chump may have had a brain Drump years ago, but the cabal that put him there do indeed have goals. Things (economy, immigration, health) have to get much worse before Chump can say “This is SO bad I have to break laws and break heads to fix it.” Putting the squeeze on energy is just one thing.
