A Change in the Wind
What to know: The Vineyard Wind offshore energy project is facing a “reckoning” in a Boston courtroom today.
The TPPF take: For the families that TPPF is representing in court, this case is a “fight for our lives.”
“Families that have fished in the region for generations are fighting,” says TPPF’s Roy Maynard. “But the odds are steep. The foreign-owned energy companies are well-funded, and renewable energy has plenty of political pull right now. An area that has been sustainably fished for nearly 400 years could be off-limits to the men and women who feed much of the nation.”

Border Crisis
What to know: Taxpayers are footing the bill for the border crisis, a new report from the House Judiciary Committee shows. That’s what has incentivized “mass illegal immigration into the United States,” the report says.
The TPPF take: The Biden/Harris administration caused the ongoing border crisis.
“President Joe Biden’s policy shift upon entering office triggered a tsunami of illegal immigration,” says TPPF’s Rodney Scott. “The border security gains earned over three decades vanished and Biden surrendered control of our border to transnational criminal organizations – the cartels.”

Not So Green
What to know: Environmental, social and governance (ESG) investing tends to be self-defeating, energy expert Rupert Darwall says.
The TPPF take: Woke capitalism—taking the form of ESG rules—is a scam that takes aim at industries the left doesn’t like.
“The ESG movement typically targets industries deemed politically incorrect, including fossil fuel exploration and production, as well as firearm manufacturing and selling,” says TPPF’s Greg Sindelar. “ESG policies can also lead to criminal collusion between investment firms—which are supposed to be competitors.”
