Lotta that clean energy infrastructure was supposed to happen in Red states. 🤷‍♀️

orblueduck.bsky.social•9 days ago

That’s their goal

llewellyngray.bsky.social•10 days ago

Clean energy takes a nosedive!!
Yes, this has confirmed my greatest fears.😨😥
That is so true!

ammaw.bsky.social•9 days ago

Well, climate change is a hoax.🙄 Just because we’re having major drought and 100 degree temps in central Texas and softball sized hai and gully washers in NorthTexas in the middle of May proves nothing.

mcgimleteye13.bsky.social•9 days ago

Nice, nothing like killing off a dynamic business sector.

ctrltxquilting.bsky.social•9 days ago

This assumes that clean energy only makes sense with subsidies. I’m not sure that’s actually true.

amazecraze.bsky.social•9 days ago

This is perhaps the worst feature of the bill (although it is tough to compete with cutting off medical care for the poor and children). It is just SOOOOO stupid! Puts us behind all other developed countries in what should be a race for cheap, clean energy. We intentionally losing.

nikyli.bsky.social•9 days ago

Thats the goal. More money for Drumps oildrilling buddies.

lulucaliente.bsky.social•9 days ago

We are all living in Gotham City now.

francisnorman.bsky.social•9 days ago

This all feels so 1970’s US car industry to me. Denial of change everywhere else in the world then suddenly realising a decade later that the world has moved on without the US.

anafirefly.bsky.social•9 days ago

Why try to heal the earth from the problems we’ve created when they can profit off its destruction . .

letspartytilldawn.bsky.social•9 days ago

Destroying America one dumb Putin decision at a time.

Putin needs expensive oil.

An entire career sector gutted

Another win for China and the rest of the developed world

As the rest of the world moves forward with renewable energy, our Department of Energy is on Facebook, extolling the virtues of coal, natural gas, and nuclear energy.

radbradley.bsky.social•9 days ago

WHAT MOVES YOU?
This MAGA GOP RUSSIAN stunt won't matter at all...
Read the business news from around the world...
EV cars & trucks are the Now & the Future...
Electric Vehicles are Hot! Cool! the Best!
Extractable Energy Is Over.

debisskyfalling.bsky.social•9 days ago

Has to pass first.

And our utilities are already off the charts!!!!

djangoroo.bsky.social•10 days ago

Not good is a wildly gentle understatement

yammz.bsky.social•9 days ago

Would not be too hasty changing current standards. trump is temporary.
Progress toward bettering elements is not.

mikebrady.bsky.social•9 days ago

Journalists and politicians need to investigate why Musk installed Trump to do this.

He is also working to install Reform UK and AfD to kill net zero in Europe.

ubuibme2.bsky.social•9 days ago

What happens to all the scrap !!!!

laura76574.bsky.social•9 days ago

More of the GOP plan for our complete destruction.

chefbruce.bsky.social•9 days ago

mochachaiguy.bsky.social•9 days ago

And he handed the lead AND future directly to China. Job well DUMB, America.

riz4robot.bsky.social•9 days ago

China cut back on bitcoin because of environmental concerns

China cares more about the environment than America

Crap…. i hate this effing regime!

spaceforcecadet.bsky.social•9 days ago

They've not driven through Texas lately. 🙄 Wind farms as far as you can see, especially in West Texas.

carolyncbarthel.bsky.social•9 days ago

We prevailed in keeping Obamacare in 2017. We have to prevail again bc there are so many more terrible things this time: killing healthcare, HeadStart, renewable projects in the IRA, etc.

Everyone, gear up for the fight!

goodgazda.bsky.social•8 days ago

And mostly hurts red states...

mlow29.bsky.social•9 days ago

Culture wars are more important.

grannyblue4.bsky.social•9 days ago

Drumpf is destroying everything that this country has accomplished for the good because he is a psychopath.
