Delaware Republicans borrowed the now-viral "Coldplay concert affair" meme to criticize the states Democratic majority amid legislative momentum for offshore wind projects in the First State.The Delaware GOPs meme inserted "Delaware Democrats" for former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, who was caught with his HR executive Kristen Cabot; represented in the repurposed meme by wind power interests.The meme included an inset allegedly denoting donations from US Wind through US Wind, the Baltimore-based iteration of an Italian wind energy firm to campaigns of several top Democrats.Fox News Digital reached out for comment from the lawmakers mentioned, including Delaware Lt.

Costs are also a factor, in that wind power costs 400%+ more than other sources of power, including wind power on land and solar energy," Pohanka said, according to the town of Fenwick Islands records."The State of Delaware has not opposed the actions taken by Maryland to permit as many as 200 wind turbines off the Delaware coastline."Ocean City Mayor Rick Meehan, an Independent, previously criticized offshore wind plans in the area, warning of tourism repercussions and that the Atlantic sunrise would "look like a backdrop from Star Wars."
