From Watts Up With That?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Legal Insurrection<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While determining the biggest loser in the Biden administration was challenging, it will be equally challenging to name the most effective and competent official in the current Trump administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Energy Secretary Chris Wright is undoubtedly a strong contender for this designation. He has been busy untangling the web of climate cult financing. He has discovered that in the final weeks of the Biden administration, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) accelerated the allocation of nearly $100 billion in green energy loans and commitments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He reviewed the numbers while being interviewed by Maria Bartiromo on Fox Business. Wright noted that the $100 billion far exceeded the total amount the DOE\u2019s Loan Programs Office (LPO) lent in the previous 15 years (about $42 billion)<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u2026Let me repeat about a little over $40 billion was supplied in support through the loan program office in its 15 years of existence. A little over 40 billion and then almost a hundred billion in the 76 days after they lost the election and before President Trump\u2019s inauguration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like if those were great ideas that were benefit to the America, why didn\u2019t they do it in the two and a half years after the inflation reduction act was passed? What did they wait till they lost the election? They changed terms and loan covenants. They basically tried to set bombs to make it hard for us to unwind the mess they\u2019d created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s just not a responsible way to treat American taxpayer money and to move our energy system forward. So, yes, we\u2019ve stepped into a lot of mess, but this stuff\u2019s all fixable. We\u2019ve got an aggressive team going after it. And you see already American energy prices are down. investments in America to bring jobs back are up. So, I think we\u2019re going the right direction. But, yeah, we\u2019ve got a lot to clean out.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

DOGE: This is insane. The moment Kamala Harris lost the election, Biden began sending Democrat-aligned NGOs & companies $1.3 billion per day, almost $100 billion before Trump took office. In the prior 15 years the same loan office gave out just $40 billion, just $8 million a day.\u2026 https:\/\/t.co\/WR1PVJMtxG<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/mqHeLz6TWc<\/a>\u2014 @amuse (@amuse) May 11, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

During the interview with Bartiromo, Wright also stressed that the Trump administration supports<\/a> the development of other energy sources besides solar and wind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Well, the great news is all we really have to do is undo all the wrongheaded policies of the last administration. You know, they came in saying they promised they were going to get rid of fossil fuels. Well, they were a little over 80% of American energy when they were elected and they were a little over 80% of American energy when they left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The thing they did do was make them all more expensive. And they did that by just getting policies to get in the way of the commercial production of energy. So we\u2019re clearing out a lot of that underbrush to make it easier, reppering natural gas export terminals, common sense permitting and regulation on building pipelines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re going to give a help and a nudge to kickstart nuclear energy in the United States. Again, very excited about that. Geothermal is a new emerging technology, but we\u2019ll end this sort of obsession with only wind, solar, and batteries that are still less than 4% of American energy. But they were all in on just that tiny little quadrant of the energy sector.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

All of this sounds great, but I share Bartiromo\u2019s concerns about getting policies codified in Congress\u2026in the event climate cultists get their hands on America\u2019s treasury again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wright\u2019s response was less clear, but it indicates that meaningful reforms should be passed<\/a> during this term<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

I would say there\u2019s great interest in Congress to make long-term structural fixes. On the news, you hear a lot about what we\u2019re doing in the short run because that\u2019s moving fast. There\u2019s also at least as much effort on these long-term structural codifications you just mentioned. So, you know, no specifics yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nothing has been passed through Congress of meaning, but you\u2019re going to see meaningful changes to our laws some this year and you will see it steadfast throughout this term. We will not be able to go back to the lunacy we arrived in whenever the Democrats come back to power. I think there\u2019ll be some meaningful checks on the lunacy that can return.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Efficient and affordable energy is the lifeblood of the American economy. If Wright can claw back this money and remove regulatory blogs on nuclear and fossil fuel development, he will be a contender for the Top Trump Pick among the current crop of administrators and agency heads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
