Aug 3, 2025 ~ "Trump’s Trade Deal With Europe Is Absolute Boon for U.S. Energy" Last year, the EU imported 16.5 million metric tons of LNG from Russia, an all-time high. In other words, the EU is paying for Putin’s Ukraine invasion. However, this tenuous situation, in which the EU funds the Russian war machine, is coming to an end, finally."
The EU has since announced it seeks to “phase out all Russian gas imports by January 1, 2028” with the US more than ready to fill the gap. [Energy, Russia, Trump Win]
Aug 3, 2025 ~ 'South Korea Agrees to Invest $350 Billion, Lead Massive Shipbuilding Project in Trump Trade Deal'
“The Deal is that South Korea will give to the United States $350 Billion Dollars for Investments owned and controlled by the United States, and selected by myself, as President,” Trump wrote. “Additionally, South Korea will purchase $100 Billion Dollars of LNG [liquified natural gas], or other Energy products and, further, South Korea has agreed to invest a large sum of money for their Investment purposes.”
“It is also agreed that South Korea will be completely OPEN TO TRADE with the United States, and that they will accept American product including Cars and Trucks, Agriculture, etc,” he added. “We have agreed to a Tariff for South Korea of 15%. America will not be charged a Tariff.” [Economy, Energy, Tariffs, Trump Win]
Aug 4, 2025 ~ 'A Picture Is Worth a Thousand Lies'
Fresh off their #FakeNews fiasco of using a very sick Palestinian boy to prove that the Israelis were 'starving' the Gazans, they follow up with a BS picture of 1950s smog to fearmonger about Trump's EPA rollback of the 'endangerment' label on CO2. CO2 has never been the cause of smog or pollution of any kind that can be seen or detected at all.
"Misusing photographs and illustrations this way is a variation on the deceptive headline--create the narrative you want before anybody's rational mind can kick in. Only with photographs is it even more impactful and deceptive. The old saw that 'a picture is worth a thousand words' is ridiculously wrong. A picture is worth a lot more than that, and almost nobody reads a thousand words anymore. If 10% of people read more than a paragraph, the writer is lucky. Pictures and headlines shape what most people think, and the Times knows that."
That is why they do it. [Climate Change, Energy, Fake News, Israel]
Sep 25, 2025 ~ "Wind Waste Plagues Countries That Shelled Out For ‘Green Energy’"
"Europe has 14,000 wind turbines to dismantle by 2030, which will leave them with 44,000 to 66,000 tons of unrecyclable blade waste." “Wind energy not only has a reliability problem; it has a recycling problem. … Proponents in Scotland and here in the U.S. say these structures have a 20-year lifespan. But many stop working within five to 10 years... The wind industry has a massive problem on their hands with turbine parts piling up in landfills." [Climate Change, Energy]
Oct 18, 2025 ~ 'A Preposterous Legal Assault Against Fossil Fuels'
"What makes no sense is that Mayor Brockett, as the titular leader of a city of 100,000 in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, wants to have the power to remake national, even global, energy policy. Of all the people one would want to bestow with such influence, Brockett is very far down the list. Maintaining bike paths? Maybe. Determining U.S. energy policy? Definitely not."
"The suit, and others like it, is preposterous on its face and represents a threat to our economic well-being and constitutional order... At the end of the day, the climate suits are shakedowns. The plaintiffs want the oil companies to cough up billions of dollars to the government and nonprofits to fund the green agenda and become, in effect, quasi-public entities."

Dec 5, 2025 ~ "Nvidia CEO Says Trump’s Energy Policy Saved American AI"
"Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, widely recognized as a leading figure in AI, gives credit not to himself, but to President Trump for saving the AI industry."
"The fact that he came into office and the first thing that he said was: drill, baby, drill. His point is we need energy growth. … Without energy growth, we can have no industrial growth. And that was it, saved it, saved the AI industry. I gotta tell you flat out, if not for his pro-growth energy policy, we would not be able to build factories for AI." [Energy, Trump Win]
Dec 6, 2025 ~ 'Gas Prices Fall To Lowest In Four Years'
Trump and his pro-energy policies are back in charge of the economy and gas prices become the most affordable they have been in four years. This helps a lot as families are still reeling from Bidenflation. [Economy, Energy, Trump Win]
Dec 6, 2025 ~ 'Trump Rolling Back Biden-Era CAFE Standards that Drove Up Car Prices'
"President Donald Trump announced Wednesday that his administration is resetting Biden-era Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards that increased car prices."
Trump said, "We’re officially terminating Joe Biden’s ridiculously burdensome, horrible, actually, CAFE standards that impose expensive restrictions and all sorts of problems to auto makers. And we’re not only talking about here, we’re talking about outside of our country, because nobody could do it. Nobody wanted to do it, and it was ridiculous, very expensive. It put tremendous upward pressure on car prices, combined with the insane electric vehicle mandate. Biden’s burdensome regulations helped cause the price of cars to soar more than 25 percent, and in one case, they went up 18 percent in one year."
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy gives further details of why this was going to be so bad for Americans had it been allowed to continue: "Biden and Buttigieg…used EVs and hybrids to come up with a 62 mile-an-hour per gallon standard, which the car companies will tell you, is completely unattainable. So they spent a lot of money on technology trying to meet the unattainable standard, driving up the cost of a car, number one, and then number two, if they couldn’t meet the unattainable standard, they had to trade for carbon, costing billions of dollars, and again, driving up the price of the cars."

Dec 7, 2025 ~ 'Native Americans Praise Reversal of Biden Rule on Alaskan Drilling'
"Using the Congressional Review Act, the Senate voted Thursday night to pass a resolution from Rep. Nick Begich, R-Alaska, that formally reversed a Biden-era rule restricting more than 1 million acres to development in the refuge, where Native communities like Kaktovik reside. Democrats have been concerned about potential harms to Alaskan communities if access to the ANWR was expanded for more energy development, the Fox article said. However, a group representing the people living in and around the refuge said in a press release Thursday it is glad about the resolutions."
Not only is this good for American energy prices and energy independence, native communities in the area are happy about it. Win for America. Win for Trump. Win for the natives. Loss for only the Democrats. [Energy, Politics, Trump Win]
Dec 14, 2025 ~ "Paris Agreement Ten Years Later: ‘Failed’"
"At the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP21) on Dec. 12, 2015, 195 parties signed the Paris Agreement, vowing to cut their emissions in an effort to stave off global warming. Nonetheless, global emissions have increased over the last 10 years."
“Today marks the 10th anniversary of the adoption of the Paris Climate Accord. Despite the world spending $10 trillion dollars trying to implement the agreement over the past 10 years, emissions have increased 12% while the weather and climate remained the same,” Steve Milloy, senior fellow at the Energy and Environment Legal Institute, told the DCNF. “More than just waste, fraud and abuse, the agreement was an unconstitutional effort by the Obama administration to saddle Americans with a UN climate treaty without the required Senate ratification. In the US, efforts to implement the Paris agreement have pointlessly raised energy prices, fueled inflation and weakened national security by making the energy grid dependent on Communist China-made wind, solar and battery equipment. President Trump is to be commended for pulling the U.S. out of the Paris treaty and for taking steps to terminate its offspring known as the Green New Scam.” [Climate Change, Economy, Energy, Trump Win]
Dec 18, 2025 ~ 'The Myth of Affordability'
Its well established that the Democrats caused the affordability crisis during the Biden administration. And all of their alleged 'solutions' make the problem worse: minimum wage, subsidized insurance, student loans, rent control, energy subsidies, etc.
"Across sectors, the pattern is the same: government intervention distorts incentives, reduces supply, lowers quality, and increases total cost. These outcomes are not accidents or failures of compassion; they are the predictable result of market distortion. Declining educational quality reduces workforce competitiveness. Lower-quality health care produces more illness. Subsidized housing accelerates decay. Every solution expands the problem it claims to fix." [Economy, Energy, Minimum Wage, Politics, Student Loans]
Jan 10, 2026 ~ 'Trump: Venezuela to Turn over 30-50 Million Barrels of Oil to U.S.'
“I am pleased to announce that the Interim Authorities in Venezuela will be turning over between 30 and 50 MILLION Barrels of High Quality, Sanctioned Oil, to the United States of America,” Trump said. “This Oil will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, as President of the United States of America, to ensure it is used to benefit the people of Venezuela and the United States!”
"But Trump's STEALING their oil," the left screams. No, when Venezuela went socialist, they nationalized all of the American oil company's wells, refineries and assets that they owned and developed. I.e. the Marxists have been stealing the oil from US. Trump is working on the next steps of returning those oil fields back to their rightful owners. [Energy, Trump Win, Venezuela]
Jan 31, 2026 ~ 'Poor Nations Won’t Keep Following Europe in Economic Suicide'
"Every year, in still-poor countries, nearly 750 million people still have no access to electricity – 600 million in Sub-Saharan Africa alone. Billions more have minimal, sporadic access. They subsist in permanent or rolling blackouts. Not dozens, but millions of them die every year. From indoor air pollution from having to burn wood, charcoal, grass and dung, because they don’t have natural gas, propane or electricity for cooking and heating. From bacteria and parasites in their water and food, because they don’t have electricity, water treatment or refrigeration. From malaria and other diseases, because their substandard clinics and hospitals lack electricity, clean water, sufficient vaccines and antibiotics, even window screens."
Guess who talked them into this madness: "In 2015, President Obama launched his Power Africa initiative, telling African audiences this was their opportunity to 'leapfrog over dirty energy and immediately go to clean energy.'"
Meanwhile China and India are building hundreds of coal plants and the West is enjoying fossil fuel power. The developing nations may have been fooled by Obama for a while, but they are not going to forgo their own prosperity anymore! [Climate Change, Energy, Western Civilization]
Mar 1, 2026 ~ 'Rooftop Solar Fraud: The Damage Continues (Part I)'
The best part of the article is the first comment: "This was always a scam. They do not increase the home’s value, quite the opposite, they’re an eyesore to prospective buyers. The energy they supposedly save wouldn’t pay for themselves unless you kept the home for over 100 years, and the panels wouldn’t last that long. Making roof repairs requires them to be removed and then re-installed. Keeping them clean for max efficiency is nearly impossible. And finally, they are a fire hazard. I feel sorry for the suckers who fell for the scam." [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Energy, Fake News]

"Europe’s mad dash to decommission its nuclear power plants was a “strategic mistake” which now has to be rectified, European Commission boss Ursula von der Leyen has admitted." Combined with their foolish moves to "green energy", energy prices have skyrocketed, blackouts becoming more common and all of this has done nothing for the environment because they now have to import fossil fuels from Russia and elsewhere at great expense and risk to the environment. Fools! [Climate Change, Energy, Russia]
Mar 22, 2026 ~ 'Kathy Hochul: Oops, That Climate Law Was a Mistake...'
Another story where Democrats are panicking because they realize the policies they've pushed on their constituents are unaffordable and unreasonable. This has always been obvious to Republicans.
"One of the worst problems she faces is skyrocketing energy bills, and the prospect that those prices will rise even more and faster in the next few years as climate deadlines rapidly approach."
"To achieve New York's outrageous climate goals, it would "add more than $1.90 to gasoline prices and raise costs for a family with oil heat and a gas vehicle by $3,000 annually." She's already eroded her taxbase by driving a quarter million people (very few poor) out of the state and now those left behind will be drowning in unaffordable energy bills knowing its her party's fault. Not a good time to be a Democrat in NY or other Blue states... [Climate Change, Economics, Energy, Politics, Taxes]
May 24, 2026 ~ 'Following Trump’s Lead on the Climate Hoax'
One of the most important ways its been better to have Trump as President than any Democrat is how he has handled the Climate Hoax. While Democrats were happy to follow Europe over the cliff, Trump is not going to let the world use us like a piggybank while economies and our competitors like China and India don't have to meet any targets.
"Climate hysteria, which was always about power and money, finally seems to have peaked, and President Trump helped lead the way."
"There has been a huge shift within the public and private sectors on climate change as it has dawned on governments and companies that the United States, under President Donald Trump, will no longer be a patsy to a cabal of international elites who seek to impose costly climate restrictions upon American businesses and international climate boondoggles upon nations. Trump’s actions are draining the climate swamp of resources, supporters, spirit, and momentum. These include defunding climate boondoggles across federal agencies, pulling the United States out of the Paris climate agreement, withdrawing the United States from dozens of climate-monitoring and wealth-transfer organizations (most importantly the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change), and rescinding the greenhouse gas endangerment finding. With America no longer playing the fool, public and private entities are withdrawing from or reducing their climate commitments and reembracing fossil fuels. Of course, this would not happen if they really believed the hype that the world faces a pending climate catastrophe that can be stopped exclusively by eschewing fossil fuels. They are tacitly admitting Trump is right and climate change is a scam/hoax."
"Importantly, none of the world’s top emitters signed on. China, the United States, India, Russia, and 140 other countries didn’t bother joining Colombia’s anti-fossil fuel crusade. That’s a step backward, not forward, as the media tried to portray it."
"Moving on to the private sector, industries are quickly abandoning their emission-reduction targets. Shortly after Trump was elected but before he took office, hundreds of banks and other companies began abandoning various UN-sanctioned or -endorsed climate groups, which set reporting requirements for carbon dioxide emissions and goals for emission reductions. By early in 2025, big tech companies, fearing a lack of energy for their AI data centers, began to embrace nuclear power, natural gas, and to a lesser extent even coal in some locations. They want whatever is needed to power the burgeoning AI industry and their tech reliably, climate concerns be damned. More recently, 18 major automobile manufacturers, including major brands like Ford, Honda, Nissan, and Volkswagen, dramatically scaled back their electric vehicle goals, in some cases abandoning entire lines of electric vehicles and programs entirely. Demand for electric vehicles flattened in 2025, only to take 'a dive off a cliff after federal tax credits phased out at the end of September.'"
"The power sector is not immune to the gravitational pull of Trump’s common sense climate agenda, either. Environment America has reported that as of March, 8.1 GW of coal capacity, consisting of 33 fossil fuel generating units across 15 power plants, that had been scheduled for closure by the end 2025, have been kept online to maintain grid reliability and power AI expansion."

Jun 6, 2026 ~ 'Germany Shut Down Its Nuclear Plants. Now It's One of Europe's Biggest CO2 Emitters.'
The stupidity of German and European 'green' policies know no bounds. "High Energy Costs Are Strangling Companies in Germany. For decades, BASF was not only Germany’s largest chemical company, but at times also the largest chemical group in the world. Beginning in 2022, and especially in 2023 and 2024, the company announced massive cost-cutting programs and job cuts in Germany, while at the same time investing billions in new plants in China."
"Germany’s economic output has been stagnating for seven years, and one of the causes is the massive rise in energy prices... the crisis began long before that, triggered by the so-called “Energiewende,” which began under Angela Merkel and was continued by Robert Habeck, who at the time served as Economy Minister for the Green Party. At its core, this is about transforming Germany’s energy sector from a market economy into a planned economy controlled by political ideology."
"Stelter estimates that around 500 billion euros have already been spent on the 'Energiewende.' Once the transformation is completed, calculations suggest the total will be between 4.8 and 5.4 trillion euros. 'I dare to make the firm prediction,' Stelter writes, 'that this transformation will not happen — for the simple reason that the German economy will not survive it.'"
"Has the Energiewende at least achieved what it was supposed to achieve? It has not. According to Stelter, Germany is now the third-highest per capita CO2 emitter among Europe’s more populous countries, after Poland and the Czech Republic. In 2000, Germany was still in seventh place. One reason is that nuclear power still played an important role back then. Today, all nuclear power plants have been shut down; some have even been destroyed so that no one will get the idea of restarting them at some point."
'Instead of nuclear power, politicians are relying on the so-called “hydrogen economy.” Gas is to be replaced by “green hydrogen,” for example, in steel production. “Green steel” means that steel is no longer produced using coking coal, but with hydrogen, in order to avoid CO2 emissions. In Germany, this is a gigantic subsidy project with no realistic economic basis, because it would require huge amounts of cheap electricity — electricity that does not exist precisely because of the Energiewende and high energy prices. The result is extremely expensive steel that cannot compete on the world market and has to be subsidized by the state with billions of euros.' [Climate Change, Energy, Regulations]
