Supreme Court to Hear Climate Nuisance Case Critics Warn Could Cost Trillions
x/william-barr
— 2d
Former AG Bill Barr warned that climate lawsuits against American energy companies could strengthen adversaries like China and Russia by targeting private firms while sovereign immunity protects state-owned producers; he argued that Boulder County’s Suncor case and similar suits threaten to shift production abroad and raise energy costs, with some filings reportedly seeking trillions in damages. Barr also contended that such state-law claims have national and global implications that the Constitution bars from being controlled by individual states, and warned that a single victory could cripple U.S. energy producers.

Trillions in damages against U.S. firms while foreign producers stay untouched will only raise costs for regular families.

— Sep 10, 2026
The United States is excluding French organizations from a DRL grant program intended to fund groups promoting democratic resilience and free speech in Europe, citing fears of MAGA-aligned influence and potential foreign interference ahead of France's presidential election. French officials and media report this move risks straining US-France ties and drew sharp responses from French Foreign Minister Barrot, who warned against foreign interference.
