Clean cooking fuel is not just a public health issue—it's today's greatest barrier to women's liberation.
Over a billion women spend hours a day tending fires, subjected to indoor air pollution because of a lack of modern energy technology. Increased energy access does more than power nations—it can transform the living conditions of humanity.

If only the Governor or his team understood the difference between electricity and energy—or how an electricity grid works—maybe they wouldn’t have the highest electricity prices in the continental U.S.
CA’s grid continues to shrink—producing less electricity than it did 10 years ago.
FYI, Gavin: More than 70% of CA total energy consumption today comes from oil and natural gas.

More than 9 out of 10 days this year, California has run on 100% CLEAN ENERGY for at least part of the day.
All while powering the FOURTH largest economy in the world.
Last year, for the first time in history, a country exported more than 100 million tonnes of liquefied natural gas—and that country was the United States. And this year, we are on track to surpass 120 million tonnes.
That remarkable growth is being driven by companies like Caturus who recently announced a massive expansion of its LNG export facility on the Gulf Coast.

Having a free, prosperous, wealthy, and well-energized America is a central goal of the Trump Administration—and we’re running seven days a week to get it done.
.@POTUS' emphasis on commerce over conflict is reflected in the recent agreement between Continental Resources and Venezuela.
This milestone marks a significant step for energy cooperation in the Western Hemisphere, strengthening the region’s role in global energy markets.

Great conversation with the @DailyCaller about putting affordability and reliability at the center of American energy policy.
More American energy means lower costs, a stronger grid, and greater energy security at home and abroad.

The Trump Administration’s energy policy focuses on improving people’s lives through commonsense solutions—not on looking fashionable over a glass of Chablis in San Francisco.

Some personal news I’m grateful to share. After a medical appointment at the Mayo Clinic this week, my pathology results came back clear.
I am cancer free.
Thank you to my family, friends, doctors, and everyone who prayed for me, checked in, and supported me along the way.
A special thank you to President Trump for his unwavering support. I am deeply grateful and will continue to work to advance his America First Agenda.

Almost everything Gavin Newsom says about energy is false. He has driven the highest electricity prices in the continental U.S., highest gasoline prices, highest diesel prices and the highest adjusted poverty rate in the nation.
California has done everything wrong to make energy expensive in peacetime and in times of conflict.

Everyone knew Trump’s Iran war would disrupt the Strait of Hormuz and skyrocket costs.
So why did Energy @SecretaryWright do NOTHING to protect us?
Americans are OWED answers about what the Trump Admin knew and why they failed to shield us from these predictable consequences.

25 years ago, America was attacked—but we were not broken.
We remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost, the families forever changed, and the first responders and everyday Americans who showed extraordinary courage in the face of evil. What followed was a powerful reminder of who we are as a nation: resilient, united, and determined to stand together when it matters most.
We honor their memory today and always. We will never forget.

One year ago, America lost Charlie Kirk.
Charlie was fearless in his faith, unapologetic in his love of country, and committed to defending the freedoms that make America exceptional.
His voice and leadership are deeply missed, but the movement he helped build lives on.
Today, we remember Charlie and continue to pray for Erika, their children, and all who loved him.

On my recent trip to Venezuela, we visited communities devastated by the June 24 earthquakes. I was deeply moved by their resilience and proud that the U.S. responded immediately to help.
Our new partnership is about more than economics—it’s about building a stronger future for both countries.

America’s linemen play a vital role in keeping the lights on, regardless of extreme weather conditions.
During my recent visit to New Hampshire, I had the privilege of meeting several dedicated linemen who work tirelessly, day and night, to ensure our communities have reliable power. Thank you to the men and women working to power our daily lives.

The catalyst to improve Venezuela is energy.
I am honored to have had the opportunity to witness energy agreements that will replace the conflict of the past with the commerce of today and the future.

Thanks to President Trump, we are seeing a historic transformation in investment across Venezuela.
Growing oil production will put downward pressure on global energy prices while creating a safer, more prosperous Western Hemisphere.
