Donald Trump continues to publicly support Pete Hegseth amid the Iran War debacle, but privately he is telling friends that when handing the world's largest military to an alcoholic cable news host, he should have picked someone from primetime.
They know that with their fans, they don't have to actually have any plans, they just need to keep them outraged over something completely irrelevant

Clean energy is the cheapest and fastest way to meet rising electricity demand, but the Trump admin is choosing to prop up expensive, polluting fossil fuels instead. Earthjustice is fighting to keep us on a path toward a cleaner, more affordable energy future.
