Listing Right Wing politicians who support your viewpoint doesn't prove your point. Judging by voting records, Clinton, Obama, Schumer and Pelosi are all Republicans (in everything but name).
They can fight this once (now) and prove to Trump that government shutdowns don't work, or fight this every single time Trump wants something and throws a temper tantrum.
You don't need Trump to sign the spending bill to end the government shutdown. They have this thing called a presidential veto proof super majority, where if enough (congress/senate) people vote for it the president can't stop the law going through.
The large balloon will act like a sail, and require a lot of power to remain on station. Those solar panels need to be light, and that makes them vulnerable to storms. You also need batteries for at night. This significantly increases the weight. Winged drones take less power than a quadcopter and glide to the ground when they break.
Balloons have poor ability to remain stationary. They rise and fall to catch the different direction of winds at different altitudes, but due to variations in the wind you'll eventually have to bring one down and truck it upwind to maintain coverage. A drone aircraft powered by microwaves from the ground (solar powered ground stations also provide telephone trunk connections) can fly in circles for months without issue.
They are working on kite wind turbines, to get power from the high speed winds at high altitude. They would have to be built like airplanes (big and light).
Tax everything based on Ecological Harm, including the production of equipment used for (all forms of) energy production. If you set the rate high enough you could eliminate income tax (that the rich appear to largely avoid, causing our current global fiscal problems).
The biggest issue with GMO isn't the genetic modification or the science behind it, it's the practices of the companies that use it that get shown to be against the best interest of humanity far too often. With great power comes great responsibility.
We have the technology to replace all fossil fuels with renewable energy. We just need to build it. It's hard to justify spending $ Trillions when your existing power plants work.
Tarsands oil will always sell at a discount. Refining it to gasoline would let you sell it at full price in Canada, instead of paying sky high prices for American gasoline.
If you go by actions instead of words: tax cuts for the rich, killing the affordable care act, taking kids from their poor parents. Those are very right wing politics, with a large dose of lying. Or what most people know as Republican Politics.
A nuclear reactor converts radiation into electricity. Thowing away radioactive waste is throwing away fuel. Yes current designs only run on a specific ratio of radioisotopes, but you can use fuel reprocessing to feed a mix of reactors to "burn" everything.
We have plenty of cheap battery technologies. Most of them are big and heavy or run hot (unfit for electric cars) but work fine for a stationary solar power farm.
We can strongly discourage this behavior by applying an export tax on what they make. Just like we can discourage America ignoring global warming by taxing their exports. I see no evidence we care enough to do either.
When wages fall or are stagnant while the cost of living rises people get upset and Nationalism flourishes. The lesson of History shows: Either the Rich spread the money around or the poor spread the pitchforks and torches around.
Say a record label has a contract with a singer to sell his copyrighted music, and the contract expires but the record label keeps selling his music. Using this case as justification, the ISP for the record company can shut down their internet access.

We're just coming to the point where the Republican Base loses their food stamps. Socialism looks a lot better when you can't feed your kids.

If you LET illegals pay taxes there is no burden on the state (taxpayers).

If your goal is to eliminate recipts, so companies don't have to care about quality control- then this helps that goal.

Or maybe the toxin purge mechanism has other uses, like healing from injury or removing toxins from pests.

If the people buying subsidised power also pay for the subsidies, then there should be no change in cost by eliminating the subsidy.

No form of Nuclear power (including Fusion) is cost competitive with solar/wind/natural gas.
Do American farmers not practice Crop Rotation?

Science is like a democratic election: speed is less important than accuracy.
I'm not sure how well heavy metal works to block radiation. I think magnetic fields like the Earth's Van Allen belt work better.
