While the Trump administration spends nearly $2 billion of your tax dollars paying foreign companies to abandon American offshore wind projects, China is quietly running away with the future of energy. Last year alone, China installed three times as much wind power capacity as the rest of the world combined. All six of the world's largest wind turbine manufacturers are now Chinese. They have displaced GE and the European firms that once led the industry, and they are flooding global markets while we kneecap our own. China is treating wind power as a national security priority. The United States is treating it as a personal vendetta. President Xi is publicly bragging about wind and solar investments. Meanwhile our administration has stalled more than 150 American wind projects by slow-walking routine military reviews, on top of the billion-dollar payouts. We are not just losing the clean energy race. We are paying foreign oil giants to make sure we lose it. Every wind project killed here is a turbine sold somewhere else, a job created somewhere else, an industry built somewhere else.  Our families deserve a country that builds the future, not one that bribes companies to abandon it. nytimes.com/2026/05/05/busin…
