On Monday, Biden invoked the Defense Production Act, targeting the country’s solar production capacity and fuel cell production, among other forms of green energy.

It’s the latest “drop in the ocean” response to a massive, looming energy cost crisis that has resulted from out of control money printing and geopolitical volatility.
