This flew under the radar, but thanks to Trump's EPA cuts, Energy Star could shut down for good.

Energy Star isn't just a sticker on your appliances. It's an important program that saves consumers $40B/year.

Intuit donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration. He's now planning to end the free IRS Direct File program.

Apple donated $1M. Trump exempted most of Apple’s imports from tariffs.

Coinbase donated $1M. Trump’s SEC dropped a major lawsuit against them.

See how this works?
