America needs a peace-through-strength energy strategy, not an energy transition away from fossil fuels, to compete & win in the arena of 21st-century great power competition. Priorities: National security, the US industrial base & competitive advantage. nationalinterest.org/blog/energy-wo…

On @BretBaier. The grid is the lifeblood of our economy. Under the previous administration we would have had no chance of powering AI & winning this competition. (My paraphrase of @SecretaryWright). Sec. Wright’s energy pragmatism is, itself, a boost to US national security.

Starting the first nuclear power plant in 15 years. What are you referring to, Jesse? @JesseBWatters @TheFive

Good news for @GeorgiaPower customers. Thanks to the @GeorgiaPSC for taking this step to freeze rates for the next three years.

Last night on @BretBaier, Steve Clemons of @TheNatlInterest offered his take on the impact of the strike on Iranian nuclear facilities.

“Donald Trump’s biggest decision of his life. The most important decision he’s ever made” (Hugh Hewitt). If ever our country needs to pray for a US President, that time is at hand. This is a grave moment for the US, Israel and the world. @POTUS @BretBaier @hughhewitt

While many are asking, “What happens if we bomb Iran”, @HaroldFordJr asks the right question: “What happens if we don’t act and Iran develops a nuclear weapon?” It’s a question we don’t want to learn the answer to by experience. @BretBaier.

Why is Sean Penn taking up air space on The Five or any show? What does it matter what he thinks about anything related to US politics? Or, for that matter, what most of Hollywood thinks about US politics. @TheFive @DanaPerino @HaroldFordJr @greggutfeld @JesseBWatters

Appreciate @TheNatlInterest letting me take the Pro Side of this debate. The national security imperative of nuclear is a first principle of US nuclear policy that we must return to. Hopefully recent EOs by @POTUS will reorient in that direction. @ENERGY nationalinterest.org/blog/energy-wo…

Thanks to @NAPE_Expo for the opportunity to write this article. The national security imperative of fossil fuels and the importance of fossil fuels to America’s industrial base cannot be overstated.

A US transition away from fossil fuels would put at risk 250-years of accrued national power & competitive advantage with incalculable national security implications.

While many in the US want to prioritize the battle against climate change as America’s greatest threat, Taiwan has more immediate & acute concerns about a different battle threatening its shores. @hughhewitt twz.com/sea/our-best-l…

I heard about @Commentary by way of @hughhewitt & have benefited from following. Yesterday I learned about the alchemistic effect Donald Trump is having on his enemies & about body positivity. This captured the issues quite well. @jpodhoretz @SethAMandel youtube.com/watch?v=EQiTYY…

Encouraging interview w/@SecretaryBurgum on US energy production & the shift away from climate-centric energy policy to national security-centric US energy policy. Energy is national power/national security & energy realism is back in the White House. @SecretaryWright @BretBaier

Am reading "Diplomats & Admirals" and found @StrongerNavy. My focus is the national security implications of US energy policy within the construct of peace-through-strength (recent article below). I look forward to following Stronger Navy. @DaleAJenkins nationalinterest.org/blog/energy-wo…

TX & other states are facing capacity shortfalls & rate increases due to new demand. This is why GA requires an Integrated Resource Plan every 3 years-to ensure sufficient reserve margins for 20 yrs & keep rates as low as possible. Reliability has a cost. publicpower.org/periodical/art…

A White House event with two important powers, U.S. & India, discussing energy security, advanced nuclear, oil, gas, AI, trade & other tech development. No mention of restructuring economies around climate change. Realism is back in the White House. @realDonaldTrump @BretBaier

US national security is a state-level issue & China is looking for vulnerable states to channel CCP interests. It's encouraging to see GA legislators respond to ensure GA isn't one of those states. @GovKemp @jasonanavitarte @johnfkennedyga @StephenGooch ajc.com/politics/georg…

A core reason why Georgia is the #1 state for doing business and a national leader in electric power sector reliability. @Georgia_EMC #RuralGeorgia
