Recently, President Biden gave his remarks on the “clear and present danger” of climate change in front of Brayton Point, a once thriving and now shuttered coal powered electric plant being transformed to a wind energy production and distribution facility. Standing on those steps is not as symbolic of the “clean” energy transition as he...
Gas prices have driven many a voter to the polls in our nation’s history, but Americans are feeling pain at the pump now more than ever as the average national gas price breached $5 for the first time in history. President Biden is busying himself with non-solutions like a temporary gas tax break — something even former...
With the potential overturn of Roe v. Wade on the horizon, the nation’s eyes are turned to the Supreme Court. But there are more decisions likely coming out this week that could transform federal powers. One is West Virginia v. EPA, which could end Obama’s Clean Power Plan for good and limit the ability of...
Millions of young children face food insecurity every day; in fact, food insecurity is one of the greatest threats they can face. Here’s why: 50% of fruits and vegetables, 40% of roots and tubers, and 20% of grains are lost before they ever reach in the market in developing countries—in Africa specifically. But it’s not...
Ah, Earth Day, when all headline-seeking celebrities, corporations, and politicians come together to virtue-signal about saving the world. The theme of this year’s celebration is “Invest in Our Planet” — an ironic choice, since the financial goals of the environmentalist movement wouldn’t help the planet but would, instead, hurt so many of the humans living on it....
It’s no surprise the Biden administration favors big government. But a new climate rule proposed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) takes Biden’s “whole of government” assault on our energy resources to whole new level. Under a new SEC rule proposed last month, all companies would be required to disclose their greenhouse gas...
President Joe Biden’s announcement that the United States would ban Russian oil imports in response to the attack on Ukraine was met with serious concern from both sides of the aisle because of the impact it could have on already record high gas prices. This criticism is valid — and, to be fair, Biden acknowledged in his...
The Idaho state legislature is considering a controversial — but critical — good-government bill to protect America’s energy industry and safeguard tax dollars from being abused for political gain. Hundreds of the world’s largest financiers, collectively controlling over 60% of global wealth, have created a cartel, colluding to discriminate against industries they deem politically incorrect and advance...
This year’s Winter Olympics, usually a time of international cooperation and friendly competition, was tainted by tensions unfolding between communist China and the Western world. The ambiance was eerily reminiscent of the Cold War, with diplomatic boycotts, questionable disqualifications, and now anti-China legislation flying. Recognizing the growing threat of dependence on China for everything from...
On February 15, 2021, Texans were shocked to wake up in the cold and dark during an unprecedented winter storm. The grid we all depend on for survival failed just when we needed it most and turned what should have been a few memorable but benign snow days into a deadly threat for hundreds of...
Last week, Texans braced themselves for another bitter cold snap almost exactly a year after the catastrophic blackouts of February 2021. The media and leftist political organizations were giddy about the possibility of more blackouts as an opportunity to create controversy and galvanize Democrats heading into the primary election, hoping to pin blame on Gov....
The first offshore wind farm in the United States was supposed to have signaled a turning point in the green energy revolution. Instead, officials have spent the last five years mired in equipment failures and struggling to respond to concerns about potential environmental damage. Block Island is Solyndra all over again—except this time, wasted tax...
