Trump Finds $100M for Coal, Where Was the Green Bill?
The Hill reports Trump's administration is funneling $100 million into American coal plants under the guise of an 'advanced energy' initiative. This while the very concept of 'green' energy struggles for consistent, large-scale federal funding. One might wonder where this 'advanced' thinking was when clean energy projects needed similar cash injections, or why the 'struggling' always seems to be
the least sustainable options. This isn't just about coal; it's a predictable pattern. The same political system that can find billions for overseas conflicts or tax cuts for the wealthy somehow tightens its purse strings for universal healthcare or renewable infrastructure. It appears 'national interest' is a moving target, conveniently landing on industries whose lobbyists and campaign
contributions echo loudest in the halls of power, ensuring fossil fuel profits continue to burn brightly.
