Fossil Fuel Firms Gain $190bn After Trump Donations

Senators Sheldon Whitehouse and Chuck Schumer cite Trump's 2024 Mar-a-Lago fundraiser, where he reportedly sought $1bn. The report says taxpayers face higher energy bills and pollution costs, while the administration refused to cooperate with oversight.
