Trump Canceling Another Project
The Trump administration is once again standing up for taxpayers and communities by moving to cancel approval of a massive offshore wind farm off the coast of Maryland.
This comes just days after the administration shut down a separate project planned near Rhode Island, underscoring President Trump’s firm stance against Biden’s reckless green energy agenda.
Interior Department Signals Big Shift
Court filings reveal the Interior Department intends to vacate and review the approval of the Maryland Offshore Wind Project. While the filings do not outline specific reasons, officials have made clear that Biden’s fast-tracked approval process left serious concerns on the table.
An Interior Department spokesperson declined to comment due to ongoing litigation.
Biden’s Risky Energy Gamble
The Biden administration gave the Maryland wind project the green light in December, claiming it could power more than 718,000 homes. But critics warn the plan threatens fragile coastal ecosystems, fishermen’s livelihoods, and will ultimately drive up energy prices for American families.
Nancy Sopko, a U.S. Wind executive, defended the project, insisting the permits were “legally sound.” But Trump’s decision to re-examine the deal highlights his commitment to protecting taxpayers from risky energy schemes.
Trump vs. Democrats in Maryland
The timing is no coincidence. Over the weekend, President Trump sparred with Democrat Governor Wes Moore after promising to deploy National Guard troops to crime-ridden cities like Baltimore. The wind farm decision further underscores Trump’s willingness to push back on Democrat priorities that hurt working families.
Why Trump Says No to Wind Farms
President Trump has long warned that wind energy is costly, unreliable, and destructive — killing countless birds while leaving taxpayers stuck with the bill. By targeting already-approved projects, his administration is taking bold new steps to hold Biden’s agenda accountable.
Earlier this year, a New York wind project faced similar scrutiny but was allowed to move forward only after Trump’s administration negotiated stricter terms. The Maryland case shows the president is prepared to take an even tougher line.
