"Intel will now join the stable of other cowed and compliant corporations, universities and law firms living in fear of the next Truth Social post, funding revocation or regulatory obstruction." www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/o...

This is simply and purely crazy. Trump's hatred of wind power comes from his experience in Scotland with his golf course. open.substack.com/pub/paulkrug...
The precise moment when and where the United States of America crossed from democracy into authoritarianism can and will be debated by future historians, but it’s becoming increasingly clear that the line has been crossed.
