This is not how a normal Justice Department talks about an ongoing investigation—or about putative targets and their uncharged conduct.

Dozens of energy projects cancelled in California.
Now five more on the East Coast.
All because Donald Trump wants to kill cheap, renewable energy.
Want to know who will pay the price for Trump's job killing cancellations?
Check your utility bill next year and you will see.

This whole thread really. It's not just that we'll have more pollution from ICE cars (and of course cause more warming). It's that once again, economically, we are choosing to stay in the Stone Ages because the stone industry has convinced us it can't get better.
It's funny how us parochial Americans generally seem to perceive that the EV revolution is stalling or reversing when in fact it's accelerating rapidly worldwide. 25% of cars sold globally in 2025 were EVs!
It's mostly just the US that's being left behind
