Trump's vow to fire thousands of 'crooked' federal workers prompts alarm
Story by James Rainey • 4h • 8 min read

After one term as president in which his promise to remake the massive federal government mostly came up short, Donald Trump again is raining fury on the “deep state,” pledging if elected in November to replace career civil servants with his like-minded allies.

If Trump and Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance were to succeed in remaking the federal workforce in the way they have described, it would be the most radical reconfiguration of the U.S. government in 140 years.

Trump vows EPA rollbacks as climate becomes hot campaign issue
Opinion by David Jordan • 21h • 3 min read

Trump, who has previously questioned the scientific consensus on climate change, promised when he accepted the nomination at the Republican National Convention that in a second term he would “lower the cost of energy.” Bernhardt said that Trump will increase oil and natural gas drilling while also putting “coal country back to work.”

And while Trump has promised more drilling, the U.S. has continued to produce and export record amounts of oil under Biden, producing more crude oil than any nation in recorded history. Bernhardt said production could have been even higher had Trump been in office.

Both campaigns have argued that their energy policies would be better for American workers. While Trump argues that more lax regulations would preserve jobs in the fossil fuel sector, supporters of Vice President Kamala Harris have highlighted the number of clean energy jobs created in recent years, particularly in the manufacturing sector.

On Wednesday the Energy Department released data that found that more than half of the jobs added to the energy sector last year were clean energy jobs, with a higher-than-average unionization rate than other positions in the industry. These clean energy positions also grew at double the rate of the nation’s overall jobs.

A number of these positions have been created through investments spurred by tax credits and other incentives included in the 2022 climate reconciliation law.

While Republicans previously called for a host of the law’s tax credits and programs to be rescinded, many of them have proven popular with businesses that are looking to enter or expand their footprint in the clean energy sector.

Interview with Oklahoma State Sen. Nathan Dahm | The Problem with Jon Stewart

State Sen. Nathan Dahm (R-OK) has penned several bills loosening gun restrictions, including the nation's first anti-red flag law against restricting gun access to those deemed dangerous. Not only does he want to protect the Second Amendment, but he also believes guns make us safer. We think it's probably one or the other.
