Why MAGA suddenly loves solar power

[hatrack]

1. That's "Miller" As In Katie Miller - Married To Temu Heydrich

The X feed of right-wing firebrand and podcaster Katie Miller has all the signatures of an acolyte of President Donald Trump. She blasts out attacks on the “transing” of kids, taunts the mainstream media and lobs slurs designed to trigger the left.

But recently that Make America Great Again fire hose has also contained posts that seem off-brand for the former GOP official, whose spouse is Trump’s domestic policy chief Stephen Miller.

“Solar energy is the energy of the future,” Katie Miller posted recently. “Giant fusion reactor up there in the sky — we must rapidly expand solar to compete with China.” Another of her posts suggested solar is more vital to the U.S. than coal power, contradicting White House messaging and policy.

Trump has been blunt about his distaste for solar panels, calling them a “blight” on the landscape, “very inefficient, and very ugly too” and — along with wind turbines — “THE SCAM OF THE CENTURY.” His administration has blocked hundreds of projects from final approval as it prioritizes fossil fuels.
