An Administration That Understands Energy

Original Article

Posted By: Hazymac, 12/8/2025 7:17:54 AM

In Interior Secretary Doug Burgum and Energy Secretary Chris Wright, the Trump administration has an unparalleled degree of energy expertise at the helm. They are engineering the administration’s abandonment of the Green New Deal in favor of reliable, affordable energy. Wright is one of the country’s top energy experts, and, having discussed energy issues with Burgum, I can attest that the former Governor of North Dakota is extraordinarily knowledgeable as well. Energy policy is perhaps second only to illegal immigration as a signature strength of the Trump administration. Yesterday Burgum tweeted a graphic that American Experiment published last year. It illustrates how wind and solar produce electricity only episodically,

It’s not like you didn’t know this already: Joe Biden’s incompetence ushered in the return of Donald J. Trump. Yet, there were plenty of opportunities for Biden and the Democrats to prevent what would become the greatest political comeback of all time. Why didn’t this happen? For some reason, Biden and his crew of invalids thought that Americans wouldn’t mind that the southern border would be awash with illegal aliens, and that any enforcement measures would turn Latino voters against Democrats. Ironically, the latter is why there was such a violent swing to Trump with Hispanic voters in the 2024 election. They were warned, and they ignored it.

Hey Guys! Climate Change Is Over! No Hurricanes

One propagandist tactic used by the left after mass shootings, particularly when the shooter is not part of a protected class, is to focus on “gun violence” while advocating for gun control and confiscation. The left uses the exact same tactic after every major weather event. It blames a destructive hurricane or the flood on “climate change,” and just like it does with gun control, it lobbies to take away more of your freedoms. The one thing the left never does is amplify good news about issues like “climate change” when it exists, because doing so would undermine their real campaign: taking away your human and Constitutional rights. Case in point:

The Department of Health and Human Services has altered the name on the official portrait of Rachel Levine. Levine, who served for years as Joe Biden’s assistant secretary for health, is a transgender woman who has long been the subject of mockery for his somewhat unconvincing gender transition. The 68-year-old, who is a biological male, has had his portrait displayed in the hallway since he was confirmed to the position in 2021. The portrait remains in situ, although NPR is now reporting that its name has been altered to Richard Levine. The change was reportedly confirmed by a spokesperson for the agency.

Race hustling weasels such as Al Sharpton have long suggested that white people don't want to have a talk about race, because we crayolas are all racist and whatnot. Good news, Al, I'm ready for that talk now! The globalists — and their hate-spewing myrmidons, such as Sharpton, Joy Reid, and Joe Biden, have spent decades convincing YT people of two things: That there is nothing worse than racism; Leftists will decide who and what is "racist." Let's start with "racist" voter ID! FACT-O-RAMA! One of the best ways to conquer a nation without violence is to hijack elections. This becomes easy when voter ID laws are deemed "racist."

Old Joe Biden put down his ice cream cone and rejoined the fray on Friday, delivering a major speech at the International LGBTQ+ Leaders Conference in Washington, D.C. The first question that leaps to mind is connection with this is: What on earth were the gays thinking? Whose bright idea was it to have Old Joe Biden, of all people, headline their conference? Didn’t they know that the man can barely string a coherent sentence together even when he is simply reading it off a teleprompter? In any case, the queer gathering got exactly what you’d expect.

January 6 pipe bomb suspect Brian Cole is not a Trump supporter like the legacy media has claimed. Fox News, CNBC, and MS NOW are reporting that J6 pipe bomb suspect Brian Cole “expressed doubts about the 2020 election outcome.” MS NOW reported that Brian Cole is a Trump supporter. Cole’s family said he is an “autistic recluse” and “computer nerd” who lived in the basement of his parents’ Woodbridge, Virginia, home. Brian Cole’s grandmother told The Daily Mail that her grandson has no party affiliation and that he is not a Trump supporter. The Daily Mail reported: The 30-year-old Virginia man accused of planting pipe bombs near Capitol Hill on the eve of the

I used to believe that Democrats had limits. Recent events have forced me to accept a different reality. Democrats really have no limits. They happily accepted USAID money laundered through foreign agents. They yelled, but weren’t all that unhappy when USAID was eliminated. It was just one pathway to taxpayer money. They had Somali agents in Minnesota diverting billions (with a B) to terrorist organizations, most likely with a bit of backsheesh diverted to support local Democrat operations. It was so obvious and outrageous that even the New York Times has reported on it. And now several outlets are reporting that current Minnesota governor and

The FBI apprehended the J6 pipe bomber, something the Biden FBI had somehow been unable to do. Weirdly, he turned out to be a left-wing extremist. The Democrats chose their latest cause: standing up for Venezuela’s narco-terrorist regime. They advanced a novel “legal” theory, that it is perfectly OK to kill drug dealers in the Caribbean by blowing up their boat, but only if you do it in a single explosion. Makes perfect sense, just like how we fought World War II. But the biggest story of the week was corruption in Minnesota–billions stolen from taxpayers, mostly by Somalis, under the somnolent eye of Governor Tim Walz.

TITUSVILLE, Fla. — “This thing looked like ‘Breaking Bad’ on steroids.” That’s how the sheriff in Brevard County, Florida, described a massive bust of drugs and military-grade weapons in Florida. According to the sheriff, Maxwell Horvath, 26, is in custody. In addition to 92,000 pounds of illegal substances, Horvath had five improvised explosive devices, 12 rifles, 17 pistols, three shotguns, two fully automatic submachine guns, a short-barreled rifle and revolver, three suppressors, thousands of rounds of ammunition, grenade simulators and 50 pounds of precursor chemicals to make explosives, the sheriff said. “We’re talking about explosive devices, things that the military are utilizing and other countries are utilizing all over the world,

People are at once the greatest treasure and the greatest bane. Who hasn’t watched the movie where sadistic convicts take the guards hostage with makeshift knives and threaten to kill them one by one unless their demands are met? Or the scenario where a cab driver refuses to drive all the way into a high crime area and drops his passenger off in a dimly lit street, leaving him to walk the rest of the way past a group of youths hanging menacingly out in an alleyway? Or perhaps we’ve heard of the pizza delivery employee hesitating to take a food order to a neighborhood that even the police avoid,

Happy Friday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) Earlier in the week, I was writing down some ruminations about last year's presidential election for something I'm working on. I was recalling that, despite the optimism of my conservative friends and colleagues in the days leading up to the election, I couldn't shake my sense of dread that the Democrats were going to do something nefarious and ruin the whole thing. Stephen Green and I did a "Five O'Clock Somewhere" election special the day before, which featured a lot of our Townhall Media colleagues as guests. Everyone except me was already in a party mood.

Earlier this month, over 400 Minnesota Department of Human Services employees accused Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz of being "100% responsible" for the massive fraud in Minnesota.

U.S. Rep. Maxine Waters, D-CA, called President Donald Trump a “killer” because he ordered the destruction of suspected drug trafficking boats. She said that the air strikes outraged her. "I am outraged... He doesn't know whom [sic] they are or whether they are innocent or whether they're guilty," Water said. "He should follow the laws. The law does not allow or intend for the president of the United States to kill anyone he wants to kill." [Tweet, video] Democratic lawmakers have claimed that Trump has issued illegal orders to the military. Yet, those Democrats can't name a single illegal order, Townhall reported.

Chicago Public Schools allows students to receive excused absences if they or their family members are concerned about Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids in the city. The government school district has a document, entitled “Attendance Coding for Safety Concerns Related to Federal Representative Activity,” that says parents can convey a fear of federal immigration authorities in order to mark their children “excused.” The document was obtained by Defending Education, according to a report from Fox News. “If a parent/guardian reports an absence and attributes it to fear of federal representative-related procedures, schools CAN excuse the absence under ‘concern for student health and safety,'” the policy reads,

A federal judge on Saturday blocked federal prosecutors from accessing key evidence in the criminal case against James Comey. Earlier this week Comey’s secret media mole Daniel Richman sought to block the Justice Department from accessing his files as the Trump Administration prepares to hit James Comey with a new indictment. A grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia indicted former FBI Director James Comey in September. He was indicted on two counts – false statements and obstruction of a congressional proceeding.

President Trump expressed angry regret over his eyebrow-raising pardon of Rep. Henry Cuellar last Wednesday after the pol quickly confirmed his reelection plans as a Democrat. Cuellar (D-Texas), 70, who sits in one of the House Democrats’ most competitive seats faced federal bribery, money laundering, and foreign-agent charges for allegedly taking $600,000 from Azerbaijan’s state-owned oil company and a Mexican bank. “Only a short time after signing the Pardon, Congressman Henry Cuellar announced that he will be ‘running’ for Congress again, in the Great State of Texas (a State where I received the highest number of votes ever recorded!), as a Democrat,” Trump raged in a lengthy Truth Social post.

MacArthur Park has erupted into LA’s fentanyl ground zero — a collapsing, chaos-soaked war zone where overdoses hit by the hour, people die daily, crime crews corner the market — and what used to be a neighborhood park now teeters on the brink of total collapse. The park, the largest green space in the district, now hosts an unknown number of unhoused people, though on most days it’s fair to estimate the population in the hundreds. MacArthur’s unofficial “residents” are made comfortable by groups handing out food and even free crack pipes as part of “safe smoking” kits — with tens of millions of dollars coming from the city

As economic and cultural suicide stalk Western Europe, it has initiated efforts to hobble America's technological advantage and diminish our freedoms. The first documented attacks on our open dialogue came from the UK and began in 2018 when Morgan McGreevy, Keir Starmer’s chief of staff (then Labour Together’s managing director), began and funded an outfit called Stop Funding Fake News (SFFN). Recognizing that the online news purveyors could best be silenced by depriving them of funds, it first targeted UK outfits, but moved on in an attempt to starve U.S. outfits like American Thinker, Breitbart, Zero Hedge, and the Federalist of advertising revenue, and astroturfing defamation of such sites.

He later wrote in his private diary: It took the attack on Pearl Harbor to awaken Americans to the threat that the world faced 82 years ago today. Today, the Western world faces a very different kind of threat. The threat we face today is much larger than the one we faced 82 years ago—and, for that matter,

Sally thinks — that is, takes it for granted — that this a bad and unhappy circumstance, to be spoken of as ‘collapse’, ‘threat’, ‘turmoil’, ‘worry’, ‘disorder’, ‘fear’.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit has dismantled long-standing congressional barriers that shielded unaccountable bureaucrats from the people’s elected leader. On Friday, a three-judge panel ruled 2-1 that President Donald J. Trump, and any future commander-in-chief, has the unfettered right to remove members of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) without cause. The decision, penned by Circuit Judge Neomi Rao Katsas and joined by Judge Justin Walker, both appointed by Trump, reverses lower court rulings that had propped up these “for cause” removal protections as relics of a bygone era.
