Ugh. Not surprising though.

The Trump administration is yanking green energy and infrastructure funding away from blue states on day one of the Republican-led government shutdown.

“Nearly $8 billion in Green New Scam funding to fuel the Left’s climate agenda is being cancelled. More info to come from @ENERGY,” Office of Management and Budget Director and Project 2025 author Russ Vought announced on X on Wednesday. “The projects are in the following states: CA, CO, CT, DE, HI, IL, MD, MA, MN, NH, NJ, NM, NY, OR, VT, WA.”

I keep thinking about how California would have the world's fourth largest economy if it were an independent country, and how blue states pay more in taxes to the federal government than we get back. How much will California tolerate being attacked before there's serious talk of secession?
