Well... it's Trump... again. #47, here we go.

Trump had the US government buy 10 percent of Intel stock costing many billions of dollars.

State ownership of the means of production. Yet not a peep heard from the usual suspect.

Not a peep from any of the anti-socialist MAGAtards. Imagine if Obama did that?
 
In Peter Griffin like style, Trump plays the "national security" card to stop construction of off-shore wind farm that was near completed.

article said:
Danish wind farm developer Orsted says the Revolution Wind project is about 80% complete, with 45 out of its 65 turbines already installed.

Despite that progress — and the fact that the project had cleared years of federal and state reviews — the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management issued the order Friday, saying the federal government needs to review the project and “address concerns related to the protection of national security interests of the United States.”

It did not specify what the national security concerns are.

It is like a cartoon with the Trump Admin, just say "national security" and he is allowed to do whatever he wants. In this case, he is interfering with a wind farm because... he can. Doesn't need to demonstrate or even assert a specific (or even vague) concern.
article said:
President Donald Trump has made sweeping strides to prioritize fossil fuels and hinder renewable energy projects. Trump recently called wind and solar power “THE SCAM OF THE CENTURY!” in a social media post and vowed not to approve wind or “farmer destroying Solar” projects. “The days of stupidity are over in the USA!!!” he wrote on his Truth Social site this week.

Wind isn't a "scam", it is a viable source of electricity. It isn't the best direction to go to reduce energy related emissions, but it sure isn't a scam. A scam would be running a fake university and needing to give everyone that went there their money back.
 
You just know this goes under the heading of Own the Libs. They think that somehow renewable energy is woke and that real men burn stinky fuel that makes cool clouds of smoke.
I really don't understand how we got here and how these asshats impress the voters. Both Trump I and II began with him allowing coal producers to resume dumping ash and slurry into our rivers. Apt metaphor for the administration.

Why is it that ABC and NBC FAKE NEWS, two of the absolute worst and most biased networks anywhere in the World, aren't paying Millions of Dollars a year in LICENSE FEES. They should lose their Licenses for their unfair coverage of Republicans and/or Conservatives, but at a minimum, they should pay up BIG for having the privilege of using the most valuable airwaves anywhere at anytime!!! Crooked "journalism" should not be rewarded, it should be terminated!!!

Now they are trying to send Garcia to Uganda. Again, no charges, no trial, just proclamation.

“President Trump is not going to allow this illegal alien, who is an MS-13 gang member, human trafficker, serial domestic abuser, and child predator to terrorize American citizens,” she wrote on social media, accusing Abrego of a host of crimes that have not been proved or, in some cases, charged in court. Abrego has pleaded not guilty to the migrant smuggling charges. He is not charged with any child sex abuse offenses, and his lawyers and family have denied he is a gang member.

The Scumbag in Chief has signed an executive order telling Bondi to prosecute flag burning as inciting a riot even though the Supreme Court has ruled that flag burning is protected political speech under the First Amendment.

Scumbag says it's not a violation of free speech, but it is.

And relatedly, right wingers have historically gotten all bent out of shape over "flag desecration". But as I was driving yesterday I saw 4 different US flags that had been desecrated with either Trump's face in it, a machine guns in it, other right wing positions sown right into the flag. How can they be so two-faced.

Break in the windows and doors of the Capitol, take a dump in the hallway, look for your lynching target: you're an "unbelievable patriot" and you get a pardon.
Set fire to a flag: a year in the joint.

They're also big on wearing clothing made out of flags. Strictly against the US flag code.

Wind has a huge "problem"--it cuts fuel use but doesn't cut the need for generators. That actually raises the cost of electricity. If all you're doing is looking at the numbers it's bad. (Solar likewise--less carbon but more cost.)
 
The government taking ownership of a part of Intel might look like socialism, but as the motivation is strictly one of national security, in obtaining influence over strategic manufacturing essential to the military, it is not really "socialism" in an unqualified sense. Rather, we should see it as "national socialism".

Hey, that sounds familiar...
