Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

MODERATORS
Okay, industry insider here, they've stopped shutting them down in court, which is a good thing. On the other hand, they've stopped giving new projects in planning DOD clearances. So, thats effectively denying the projects without pulling permits or issuing shut downs via court orders.
What kind of moron actively fights against the future like this?
Renewables won, electric vehicles won, it's irreversible. There is only one question left, will it be fast enough to preserve a somewhat liveable world? We will see....
AI data centers say otherwise
Data centers don't impede the change, they delay it. Same goes for right wingers like Trump or Merz. The direction is still clear.
.. for now.
Yeah, if Trump's sycophants filed for voluntary dismissal, it's because they wanted to preserve the opportunity to try some other bullshit tactic later.
Another war he lost.
And back here in Germany our Minister of Economic Affairs and a not ignorable part of the rural population treat renewables, especially wind turbines, like the end of the world. They are behind the fucking Trump administration....
What are their supposed reasons?
For our Minister, she always talks about reliability but this is also archivable with renewables through a smarter and more integrated grid (which has also other benefits) and more storage capacity.
For the rural idiots you have anything. From infrasound bullshit to bad faith arguments about birds and other endangered species up to the classic of "they look ugly".
From infrasound bullshit
What is that about?
Bullshit about infrasound emitted from wind turbines causing cancer, psychosis, autism and women leaving their overweight alcoholic husbands. The regular anti science dance.
