Correction, it may have been @ctmirror.org first:

Whatever, it's good news any which way. I'm hoping to follow-up someday with a post announcing when it's full operational.

It makes ZERO sense that Trump has halted the production of an almost complete wind farm here in New England. Yet, here we are: apnews.com/article/offs...

Trump halts work on New England offshore wind project that's nearly complete

The Trump administration has halted construction on an offshore wind project near Rhode Island that is 80% complete.
