    Drill Baby Drill. let’s fuck this place up. Good job beetlezos.

  2. When he said drain the swamp he meant “the Everglades will be literally dry”

    Is there any chance that the people who voted for him realize how fucking terrible of a decision that was, or are we full blown 1984 at this point?

  4. guess it’s time to load up on oil stocks and dump anything green related :/

  5. ShyLeoGing on

    What are the odds that he would also be selling stock?

    Edit – Adding the following

    If anyone is buying into Nuclear Energy – now might be the time, Chris Wright is on the board of Oklo, along with Sam Altman…

    > We are entering an era of unprecedented energy demand–rivaled perhaps only by initial conversion to electrification over a century ago. The world is now recognizing nuclear’s role in powering that future. I’m confident we’ll look back on 2024 as the turning point in our mission to deliver clean, reliable, and affordable energy for all. Momentum is building every week-regulators are modernizing, bipartisan support is growing, and some of the most influential companies are investing heavily in the space

     
    > At Oklo, our focus on building small-scale, modern fission powerhouses-designed to be easily repeatable–along with our model of selling power directly to customers, allows us to accelerate timelines, reduce complexity, and scale to meet demand. With a site permit and secured fuel, we believe we’re poised to be a leader in deploying advanced nuclear by late 2027. As the world experiences an extraordinary transformation driven by Al, the future demands an equally bold solution for energy. We’re proud to lead the way.”

    So antagonizing the people who don’t like him is a higher priority than anything practical then.

  7. What a joke this administration is going to be! Atleast i can laugh about the clown shitshow thats going to start soon. FUCK MAGA.

  8. This is what trump voters wanted. Like they are actually happy rn to kill the planet.

  9. Im gonna get killed but Energy Secretary. Not environment secretary.

    Dude is a ceo in the energy industry.

    Investment banker types always get big finance roles, so why not this?

    I’m sure he’ll have bipartisan support at the confirmation hearing. Fetterman will lick his boot heels.

  11. Paddlesons on

    This is what the left that didn’t vote for Harris was willing to concede to.

  12. Every day: This is beyond the worst thing I can imagine.

    Next day: WTF!

    All we can do is hope there is another election in 4 years. You voted for it. Take your medicine.

  14. getdemsnacks on

    at this point, i think its safe to say, that its just all a fucking joke to him. a troll cabinet for a troll president. i am honestly dreading the next 4+ years.

  15. Finally, we might go from the most oil producing country in the history of oil to the most oil producing country in the history of oil.

    Good job America! Fucking idiots. Hope the horrors of climate change were worth trading for the price of eggs (and we’ll see about that too).

  17. JesseJamesGames449 on

    I swear he is just trying to make as much noise as possible to distract from the suspect election.. him winning every swing state makes 0 sense..

  18. Why not pick an engineer that understands the country’s power needs?

  19. blind_squirrel62 on

    Is this guy qualified to manage our nuclear weapons weapons program? How is he qualified to oversee nuclear reactor production for the navy? Is he qualified to manage nuclear energy policy and production?

  20. Sidewayzracer on

    i dont see anything specifically wrong yet. Atleast its someone i have never heard of

  21. Here comes the subsidized grey hydrogen, the SMR nuclear plants with Russian fuel, the resurrection of coal, regulatory suffocation of wind, solar and battery.

    Because of course.

  22. Well Biden’s current secretary of energy is Jennifer Granholm who has zero experience in any energy related field. She was Michigan attorney general and governor. A politician. At least this guy know what fracking is.

  23. The more traditional corrupt version for secretaries instead of the insane picks. And because of that comparison, he’ll probably get approved in the Senate.

  24. usdrpvvimwfvrzjavnrs on

    It sounds like he’s picking people with experience relevant to the positions they’re being appointed to. That’s a good thing.

  25. Each Trump appointment so far seems like a nail in the coffin of America. Fuck me.

  26. ConkerPrime on

    Hahahahahaha I love it. Once again, thank you non-voters for your apathy and those liberals that stayed home and pouted. The next four years is going to be entertaining at the very least.
