"What is madness is to continue to argue for policies that fail to take any account of current geopolitical realities. But then cheerleaders for millenarianism and for central planning at its most reckless (and current climate policies manage to combine elements of both of these appalling traditions) are not known for taking much account of reality."

"Russia’s invasion has forced energy security to the center of the political debate, where it is likely to stay through the midterms. Voters will cast ballots for candidates who prove they understand the problem and have a plan for fixing it."

"Thus far, the administration’s efforts to increase domestic supply have been misguided at best.  Releases from strategic stockpiles provide a short-term increase in oil – literally for days, not weeks or months – but do not help in the longer term if comparable quantities are not later produced to refill the reserves."

"Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) got $2.25 million for Newburyport to rebuild a coastal retaining wall that protects the city’s downtown and a waterfront boardwalk.

In the meantime, we must be practical; renewables are not yet advanced enough without long-term energy storage capabilities. We should be investing in all homegrown energy sources today for tomorrow’s use."

"By investing in the next generation of clean technologies at home, we can bring reliable and cost-efficient clean energy to all corners of the globe and enable nations to build the net-zero economies of tomorrow."
