The Trump administration ordered an aging coal-fired power plant in Colorado to stay open on Tuesday, a day before it was set to be retired.
The order from Energy Secretary Chris Wright will keep the nearly 50-year-old Craig Generating Station Unit 1 in northwest Colorado operating until the end of March, with an option to extend it further.
It’s the Department of Energy’s sixth such move this year; Wright has also ordered two coal plants in Indiana, one in Michigan and one in Washington state to stay open past their retirement dates, as well as a Pennsylvania power plant that runs on oil.
“Keeping this coal plant online will ensure Americans maintain an affordable, reliable, and secure supply of electricity,” Wright said in a statement.
You joke but I wouldn’t at all be shocked if someone from the whaling industry is lobbying that.
And Trump has this wired anti electronics when it comes to ships for some reason.
No, he wouldn’t authorize whaling again because his fat, pasty ass could easily be mistaken for one
Even if he was I don’t think you need to be a whaling expert to know his fast food only diet doesn’t make his blubber good

You know that if it happened, his asshole son would be on board with a harpoon gun.
Just hope he learns to point the fork at something orange
