Hey, if we all club together we could get through the first few stages of getting our own windfarm approved and then Trump could pay us a billion to cancel and we all walk away with a share.
Who’s in?
it’s about the offshore view from his golf course. self-serving scumbag. needs oil platforms
What’s hilarious about all this is if you actually go there and look out to see you can barely even see the wind turbines.
The Trump administration announced it will pay nearly $1 billion to French energy giant TotalEnergies in exchange for the company abandoning plans to build offshore wind farms in the Atlantic Ocean and instead pursue fossil fuel projects in the US.

Just to be clear, this money was already spent by the previous administration on federal leases that were going to be used to build these offshore farms. The government will now be reimbursing the company the money it spent on those leases. Not quite just paying the company to not do something like the headline makes it seem. But that’s now $1 billion that could certainly be put to better use elsewhere that will be wasted paying this company back.
It’s also embarrassingly short sided for a myriad of reasons but that doesn’t matter anymore. We’re great again!
STOP GIVING AWAY OUR MONEY, FUCKO
Paying not to build something feels like the most expensive way to do nothing.
They are not really getting paid, they are getting the money back they paid for windfarm permits and in exchange they have to invest the money in oil and gas in the US.
Hey I’m not going to build windmills either, where the fuck is my check?
Now the French will learn that Trump never pays his bills, the check is in the mail so to speak
Oh, it’s not his money? I got nothing
He really is still salty Scotland built some and spoiled the view off his golf course.
What a windy jerk.
Pay them 1 billion, they pay someone else 900 million to do it instead. +100 million profits
Is this notheonion?
Instead, TotalEnergies will now spend the money on the development of a new liquified natural gas plant in Texas that will help export US LNG overseas to Europe, CEO Patrick Pouyanné said in a statement.
what a windy jerk.
