Regulation

Two months ago, a video circulated on social media featuring a Biden EPA political appointee talking about “tossing gold bars off the Titanic,” intentionally rushing to get billions of tax dollars recklessly out of the agency before Inauguration Day. The EPA’s new sheriff, Lee Zeldin, located $20 billion of those gold bars in a Citibank bank account (see EPA Discovers Illegal $20 Billion Transfer from Biden’s Final Days). The money was meant to fund radical anti-Trump efforts related to the environment. Great news for taxpayers but bad news for Big Green grifters: Yesterday Zeldin announced he is canceling ALL of the $20 billion in grants from the “gold bar” scheme meant to be funneled through eight NGOs.

Energy Secretary Chris Wright delivered a barn burner of a speech to kick off the CERAWeek by S&P Global conference in Houston, TX—perhaps THE premier energy event held each year. In his keynote speech, Wright pledged to reverse a “very poor direction in energy policy” under former President Joe Biden. He added, “The previous administration’s policy was focused myopically on climate change with people as simply collateral damage.” Wright said he’s NOT a “climate denier” nor a “climate skeptic.” He calls himself a “climate realist.” Read More “DOE Sec. Wright Delivers Barn Burner Speech at CERAWeek”

Sometimes you have to toot your own horn, especially when the legacy media (which nobody watches, reads, or listens to anymore) won’t do it. On Tuesday, President Trump gave a joint address to Congress. We won’t rehash the endless coverage of that event and the juvenile (quite despicable) performance by Democrats in attendance. One of Trump’s main themes for the talk was energy. Just ahead of his speech, The White House issued a statement to identify the many ways in which his administration is “unleashing American energy.” That was the toot-your-own-horn bit. It’s a great list and his work thus far is not getting the attention it deserves. Trump has done so much in such a short time, it’s hard to keep up with it all. Let’s go through it chapter and verse… Read More “Exactly How President Trump is Unleashing American Energy”

In 2009, during the Obamadroid years, the federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) adopted a major regulatory rule called the “endangerment finding.” The finding concluded that six so-called greenhouse gases — carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) — constitute an endangerment to public health and welfare due to their contribution to global climate change. The finding gives the EPA the power to regulate those gases under the umbrella of the Clean Air Act. The Trump administration is about to make a run at overturning the endangerment finding. This is REALLY BIG news. Read More “EPA Head Zeldin Recommends Trump Overturn Endangerment Finding”

The Democrat Party keeps digging their hole deeper and deeper. How defending corruption and graft and political payoffs will help their cause is a mystery for us. Our diagnosis is the party has had a collective psychotic break with reality. Two months ago, a video circulated on social media featuring a Biden EPA political appointee talking about “tossing gold bars off the Titanic,” intentionally rushing to get billions of tax dollars recklessly out of the agency before Inauguration Day. The EPA’s new sheriff, Lee Zeldin, located $20 billion of those gold bars sitting at a Citibank bank account (see EPA Discovers Illegal $20 Billion Transfer from Biden’s Final Days). The money was meant to fund radical anti-Trump efforts related to the environment. Zeldin is demanding the money be returned pronto. And now, the Democrat groups that were going to receive that money are crying poverty, they’re about to go under. Boo hoo. Democrat Senators are demanding Zeldin stop his efforts to “claw back” that money. Keep on diggin’ that hole. Read More “Dem Senators Demand EPA Release $20B “Gold Bars” for Cronies”
