Trump’s core 2024 promise was bringing down costs by being the energy president — “when you bring down energy costs, everything else falls.” The story of 2026 is that his energy policy, killing clean energy to make us dependent on oil, gas, and coal, has been a massive failure.

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change — all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

Donald Trump’s aggressive rollback of environmental protections directly contradicts the promises of his “make America healthy again” campaign, according to new research from @amprog shared exclusively with the Guardian.

There’s a thing out there called a “climate husher.” Anyone who cares about what fossil fuel pollution is doing to Earth’s natural systems needs to ignore these so-called “climate hushers” – people who think Dems should stop talking about climate.

Ambitious climate action is projected to drop oil prices by more than half in the next 10 years. The last time oil prices were that low, a gallon of gasoline in the United States cost less than $2! ⛽ americanprogress.org/article…

When you find out you took over a country and made it your oil colony for nothing.

The Exxon CEOs face tells you everything you need to know about what the companies think of Trump’s boondoggle in Venezuela.

This Yglesias piece in the NYT is really bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal: nytimes.com/2025/12/18/opini…

Replying to @loril @mattyglesias
Is strange to me that in the supposed truce here, the big give by oil & gas is just to acknowledge that climate science exists, and not, say, to stop trying to annihilate clean energy or tell Trump not to invade Venezuela over oil.

I’ve known and liked @mattyglesias for years. But it is odd: abundance depends on abundant, cheap, clean energy. Yet as Trump & fossil fuel execs work to sabotage it, Yglesias attacks clean energy advocates and promotes more oil and gas.

On way 1st day teaching journalism course on covering immigration, met by ICE in Mt.Pleasant at Lamont - agents appear to take father driving young daughter, likely to school. Agents shoving bystanders, daughter sobs it’s her fault-she’d seen car parked for 2hrs. Trump’s America

The Trump Administration’s panic over skyrocketing utility bills is setting in — up 10% since Trump took office. Trump, Burgum, Wright, and Zeldin have been on an all-out massacre against American clean energy despite everybody warning it would jack up rates. No excuses.
NEW — I interviewed DOE Sec Chris Wright at Des Moines airport in Iowa about Trump’s efforts to stifle renewables. He told me, “We’re going to get blamed” for rising power prices, which has become a midterms sleeper issue. But he says it’s Dems’ fault subscriber.politicopro.com/a…

Utilities have skyrocketed in New Jersey and they’re only set to grow with Trump’s catastrophic budget supported by my opponent @Jack4NJ. Let’s talk about it.

This pernicious bill is a tool for tyranny. It would give any presidential administration – especially the incoming one – absolute power over American civil society as it strips away due process protections.

We just won our Senate race! As a son of immigrants, a public school kid, I never could’ve imagined I’d get to serve as a US Senator. I’m deeply humbled and grateful to NJ and for everyone who got us here. I promise I’ll serve with honor and integrity as a public servant for all.

It’s not “weird science.” Climate change — and its deadly consequences — are real.

I guess JD Vance hasn’t heard of the Inflation Reduction Act. I’ll help him out: it was the largest investment in American clean energy manufacturing EVER and it was passed by Democrats during the Biden Harris administration.
