The US administration hates offshore wind farms more than DEI. I don't believe this was a shock as stated in the article.

The US is actually in a weird place where it has more oil (and natural gas) than any other country by far, but has competition everywhere when selling it and now refining capacity will soon drop to the point where the US will need to import millions of gallons of refined petroleum products per day, probably from Mexico and Asia, with tariffs.

No, the shut down of that wind farm had to do with the fact that it was Danish. There are several other windfarms nearby that they left alone. They also vaguely noted that it was due to a "nation security concern".

He’s applied 50% tariffs on Indian products, but exempted petroleum and pharma.

Go figure.

So much for “Russian oil from India” funding “Putin’s unprovoked war.”
