I remember when Democrats put a freeze on offshore oil drilling after the BP Horizon disaster, because the administration wanted to make sure we did haven’t any more calamities waiting in the wings to wreck the ecology of the Gulf of WhateverWe’reCallingItNow.
Conservatives lost their absolute shit and would not stop screaming about it for years.
Trump’s freeze on Wind Turbine development, in the middle of an energy supply crisis, gets nothing but crickets. Virtually no major news outlet covers it. No national politicians seem like they want to talk about it. Even the Ultra-Radical Extremist Tankie Left isn’t juiced up on it.
You’d think skyrocketing gas and electricity prices would get people a bit more invested in this as a story, but… shrug I guess not.
