Oil & Energy News

President Joe Biden is backing a global effort with other wealthy nations to restrict government funding for oil and gas projects abroad. But instead of pushing other countries to transition away from fossil fuels—a key driver of economic growth around the world—America in 2025 should champion energy abundance to uplift all economies, especially low-income ones….

President Donald Trump’s overwhelming victory on Election Day was another signal that the American people want to embrace affordable American energy and reject the incessant “doom and gloom” narrative being touted by environmental extremists. For decades, radical environmental groups like Greenpeace have been employing apocalyptic rhetoric while offering so-called solutions that would make energy more…

Nuclear power stands at a critical crossroads in America. With growing demands for electricity and a desire from the incoming Trump administration to bolster America’s energy independence, nuclear energy has the potential to transform our future. So what’s preventing the United States from experiencing a nuclear revolution? In a groundbreaking new book published Thursday, Heritage…

The United States military, charged with defending the nation, is instead using defense research and development dollars to learn how to compost. According to the latest U.S. Army Budget Proposal, $3 million has been allocated this year for what has euphemistically been labelled “Installation Composting for Land Resilience.” This misguided project is both a waste…

In perhaps the least surprising outcome of this election cycle, incumbent Democrat George Gascon got a shellacking Tuesday from his opponent, independent Nathan Hochman, in the race for Los Angeles County district attorney, losing by 62% to 38%.    The writing was on the wall for Gascon, as LA voters not only twice unsuccessfully tried to…

When Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. endorsed Donald Trump on Aug. 23, the corporate press and conventional Washington, D.C., analysts mostly missed the real story: It was the moment that a disparate, diverse, and potentially disruptive throng of average Americans became a coalition. Although RFK, Jr. is famous—or infamous, depending on your view—for his criticisms of…

Soros-funded prosecutor George Gascon recently debated his challenger for reelection as Los Angeles County district attorney. Gascon’s onstage performance was a perfect reflection of his failure as the head of the nation’s largest DA office: It was abysmal. Former federal prosecutor Nathan Hochman has led Gascon in the polls by 25 percentage points since August,…

Energy costs across the U.S. “would probably go down substantially” if the U.S. sharply increased mining and production of Alaska’s natural resources, according to Adam Crum, commissioner for the Alaska Department of Revenue.  Geographically, Alaska is by far the largest U.S. state at more than 663,000 square miles. It is also among the most natural…

We don’t want to be dependent on foreign oil, and we should invest in diverse forms of energy. That’s what we heard from sitting Vice President Kamala Harris in the most recent debate spectacle. Her exact words: “My position is that we have got to invest in diverse sources of energy so we reduce our…

The debate debacle hosted by ABC News underscored why the conservative half of America is hostile to “fact-checkers.” Object to them, and the Left decrees it’s because you’re hostile to facts. But what conservatives actually oppose is leftist argumentation that’s poorly disguised as nonpartisan and devoid of opinion.  “Fact-checking” is often an exercise in spin-spoiling….

This week, alleged comedian Stephen Colbert had on CNN’s Kaitlan Collins to discuss the 2024 presidential election. In the middle of the interview, Colbert began to ask Collins a question, in all sincerity: “I know you guys are objective over [at CNN], you just report the news as it is.” Colbert, presumably, expected his audience—all…

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we laugh as the media desperately try to rewrite the record of Minnesota governor and vice presidential hopeful Tim Walz. From stolen valor and Black Lives Matter to drunken driving arrests and “the joy” Walz thinks Vice President Kamala Harris has brought back to the campaign…

When Charles Gasparino set out to report on Silicon Valley Bank’s collapse, he had no idea he was about to uncover a much larger story: the radical transformation of American business. Gasparino, a veteran financial journalist at Fox Business, initially focused on the bank’s poor risk management. But he soon stumbled upon something more troublesome—an…

Temperatures are over 100 degrees this month in Twin Falls, Idaho, sapping the distance electric vehicles can travel. EVs in the Gem State remain relegated to the back seat when it comes to consumers’ choice in vehicles, despite a new Environmental Protection Agency mandate requiring that 70% of new cars sold be all electric by…
