On Christmas Day, the Trump regime informed Americans, via a DHS tweet, that one only deserves the title of citizen of this nation—the designation "American"—if you accept Jesus of Nazareth as your Lord and Savior, i.e. are Christian.

Suspending offshore wind projects already under construction isn’t energy policy.
It’s retroactive control.
When national security is cited without standards, billions freeze, jobs vanish, and no one can plan forward.

Trump is halting more offshore wind projects, a major blow to clean power. Further escalation from the fascist tyrant, who has vowed to throttle wind projects despite his party's worries about electricity affordability. High five to MAGATS & the 45 million registered Dems who didn’t bother to vote.
