The Biden Administration spent hundreds of billions of dollars to push renewables, and the result was a 30% increase in national utility prices. And yet, despite producing, (intermittent and expensive) electricity, no amount of wind and solar can make rubber or plastic or the millions of products we use, nor can they forge steel or produce cement. Yes, we need more electricity, but the Biden team was determined to be anti-fossil fuels in their push for more electricity, why was nuclear technology left out of the conversation?

There is no imminent replacement for fossil fuels in the production of petrochemical products, but for electricity needs, America stands on the brink of a nuclear energy revolution. Advanced nuclear technology and small modular reactors (SMRs) are proving to be game changers.

Similar to the war on coal and the ongoing attacks on oil and gas, nuclear has the same set of radical activists looking to thwart America’s advancement. President Obama’s former Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Chairman Gregory Jaczko, famously anti-nuclear, at a recent CERAweek conference, was presented as an objective expert on these future technologies, like having a beef panel moderated by vegans. 

As NRC Chairman, Jaczko made it his mission to shut down nuclear innovation at every turn. He voted against opening any new nuclear power plants and famously went so far as to call for a global ban on nuclear power. It is frustrating enough Jaczko had the power to curtail nuclear power in America. Giving him a platform to continue to promote his extreme views is baffling. 

Fortunately, America has an opportunity to turn the page on this anti-energy agenda and fully embrace a new era of nuclear power. In President Donald J. Trump’s first term, he laid the groundwork for innovation-friendly policies that encourage the development of next-generation nuclear technologies. Now, we have the chance to break free from the bureaucratic roadblocks of the past and usher in a golden age of nuclear energy.

Oklo, a company out of California, has signed agreements to deploy SMRs to operate data centers so America continues to lead the world on AI and not cede ground to China. We need greater electricity production for manufacturing and industrialization, for expanded housing in cities and suburbs, for commercial, farm, and residential use. The only thing standing in the way? Outdated regulations, bureaucratic inertia, and the ideological opposition of people like Jaczko.

We’ve seen this playbook before. The same activists who falsely claim to support “green energy” are actually lobbyists promoting unreliable wind and solar as the only acceptable energy options—ignoring their massive land use, supply chain problems, and dependency on rare earth minerals from adversarial nations like China. Nuclear power, on the other hand, provides a stable energy source with a far smaller environmental footprint, and we have all the raw materials here in America. 

President Trump has a chance to champion this cause once again, cutting through the red tape that has long plagued nuclear development. By prioritizing streamlined regulatory approvals, supporting research into next-generation reactors, and pushing back against fear mongering anti-nuclear activists, his administration can unleash the full potential of American energy innovation.

Europe’s elites have been using the Paris COP Agreements to get African countries to install highly subsidized, weather-dependent wind and solar systems provided by Europe.
.
They are paid for with onerous, long-term loans from the World Bank/IMF, and European banks, to keep these countries in colonial-style bondage.
These countries pay for the onerous loans with their valuable minerals.
.
Europe loved Biden, because his clique of handlers enabled Europe to do the same thing to the US, to ensure the US would have high energy costs/kWh, and would be uncompetitive in world markets.
All that to protect Europe’s $10 trillion of investments in the US, and its decades of trade surpluses.
.
That game plan came to a screeching halt when the idiotic, unpatriotic, illegally installed, on-autopen-Biden regime ended, and Trump took over.
.
Now, Trump and Co is trying to undo the damage of decades of woke, leftist Democrat malfeasance, waste, fraud and abuse, started and perfected under the woke, okie-dokie Obama regime.
.
USAID was established by Executive Order by John F Kennedy

Obama was using USAID to pretend to send ‘Aid’ overseas, but was laundering it to train “Rent-a-Riots” instead.

.
Today, the United Financial Elite (UFE) governs their “Rules-Based” world.
The UFE moves its money where profits can extracted.
In case of wars, the UFE will sell weapons, etc., to both sides

The UFE mirrors the old aristocracy. They gather packs of vassals to keep the common people in check for them.
There is even a Young Leaders training center for it in upscale, jet-set Davos.
.
In return, these vassals enjoy minor privileges. Just like their noble predecessors, the elites often quarrel among themselves, sometimes escalating into wars. No one seems to object to this.
The killed victims do not protest, and the survivors are brainwashed to blame the opposing side for their miseries.
.
The elites do not care who among their ranks defeats the other, as long as large-scale capital ownership is not endangered.
.
The general public is usually kept unaware of these internal conflicts within the UFE, as they occur behind the scenes. 
In case “stuff” comes out, the Corporate Media, in service of the UFE, will use its enormous foghorn to “shape the narrative”
.
For the UFE as a whole, it is no different from the aristocrats of old. Except that now, it is not just landownership that is untouchable, but all forms of property.
Terrorism on Teslas will be punished with long jail terms in El Salvador.
.
How the elites divide the loot is fought out among themselves; the commoners have no say in the matter and only serve to perish during their elite tournaments.

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT

******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********

(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/
