Donald Trump on wind energy

From LIVE: President Trump makes announcement from Oval Office · · LiveNOW from FOX

“We've been destroying our grid because we're relying on wind and other things that don't have the power. They don't have the strength. They're very expensive. Wind is the most expensive form of energy. It sounds good. Wind, beautiful wind, but you know, it's very intermittent. But those windmills cost a fortune. They break. They kill the birds. They're bad for the environment. Nobody wants to be near them to houses.”

On June 10, 2026, Trump signed the Secure America Act, a $70 billion bill funding the Department of Homeland Security, ICE, and Border Patrol through the end of his term. During the signing ceremony, he praised Republican congressional leaders and criticized Democratic opponents, accusing them of supporting open borders and other policies he described as harmful. He also claimed that crime in Washington, D.C., had fallen to its lowest level in 58 years and that the city had become one of the safest in the country, attributing the improvement to his administration's actions. On June 11, Trump spoke from the Oval Office and at a White House event, stating that a deal with Iran to prevent it from obtaining a nuclear weapon could be signed within days.
