Nothing to see here...

It would be tempting to label this as regular grift, but, one of the few areas the guy’s been consistent is his Quixotic quest against windmills
baggachipz•5m ago
His MO is always one (or both) of two things: grift, or revenge. He's still butthurt that he couldn't kill the offshore windmills near his Scottish golf club, and so now he wants to kill all wind farms. It just so happens that he can pay a buddy from taxpayer dollars to do this job, and it would of course have to include a kickback so that they both win. Pretty standard behavior for him.

The constant grift is appalling.

And yet so normalized at this point. It's going to be an article in the news for a day or two, then it's gone because a new one comes along.

Every single day a new story that would have been a scandal in itself. There is absolutely no end to that administration level of greed and corruption.
