A new report reveals a 10% surge in US household electricity bills since Donald Trump's re-election, attributed to his support for data centers and cuts to clean energy. Energy Secretary Chris Wright blames Obama-Biden policies, while the report highlights Trump's pro-fossil fuel stance and new tariffs as contributing factors. The report also cites a loss of 64,000 renewable energy jobs and billions in lost investment. Higher gas prices and regional spikes further exacerbate the issue, impacting American families and potentially posing a political challenge for the GOP.
