Thank you very much for being here. We have largely an energy group today.

We're looking to be very energy dominant.

Unleashed energy dominance.

This is unleashed the National Energy Dominance Council.

We are unleashing energy dominance.

And you're going to see this is basically energy dominance and it's going to be

environmentally clean, environmentally wonderful. And we're going to make more money than anybody's

ever made with energy. We have more energy than anybody else. I call it liquid gold under our feet.

Energy dominance. That is the Trump administration's catchphrase when it comes to America's new energy policy.

Or should we say old energy policy? Always energy policy? In February of 2025, Trump established

the National Council on Energy Dominance, whose aim is basically more oil, natural gas, and coal with a smattering

of geothermal and nuclear thrown in to meet AI demand.

He's promising cheaper prices at the pump for consumers and no more of that pesky wind and solar.

You just heard the voices of President Trump, his press secretary Carolyn Levitt, Secretary

of the Interior Doug Bergam, and EPA Administrator Lee Zeldon, all repeating that same line,

energy dominance.

Like it's a magic spell.

But what does energy dominance actually mean?

Who or what is the Trump administration trying to dominate with it?

Is it the energy itself, those molecules of freedom, as the Trump administration was calling it back in 2019, that they're trying to dominate?

American presidents, both Republican and Democrat, have always said America needs more energy.

Also, why are they always unleashing it?
