Washington, D.C. - President Biden announced new rules today aimed at increasing penalties and regulations on small businesses for what he calls “extreme heat.” The President is again bypassing Congress by handing down the new regulations through a Department of Labor rule. Although specific amounts have yet to be reported, the penalties on small businesses who do not comply with the new rules will “increase significantly” according to a senior White House official.

Washington, D.C. - Today, a federal judge blocked President Biden’s ban on liquified natural gas (LNG) export permits. The case, filed by 16 states in March, was decided today when a federal judge ruled Biden’s LNG ban "be stayed in its entirety, effective immediately." In response, Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director for Power The Future, issued the following statement:
“Joe Biden seems to have as much trouble following the law as he does putting together a sentence without a teleprompter. This ban on American energy from Joe Biden not only hurt our energy workers but gave Vladimir Putin an opportunity to expand the market for Russia’s natural gas. This was another election year failure from Joe Biden trying to appease his extreme climate base no matter how much it hurts American families.”

Washington, D.C. - Moderators in the first Presidential Debate of 2024 failed to ask a single question about American energy independence, giving President Joe Biden a pass on his record. In response, Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director for Power The Future, issued the following statement:
“Number one: If the moderators had the courage to ask President Biden about his energy policy, they would see he has no defense. Number two: Americans are paying more because Joe Biden is energy incompetent. Number three: Americans should remember that energy is on the ballot in November, even if biased media moderators don’t admit it.”

Washington, D.C. - According to media reports, First Lady Jill Biden is in the middle of making several trips back-and-forth across the Atlantic in just a few short days. In at least one leg of the journey, the First Lady boarded a military aircraft in Paris to return to Delaware in order to attend court proceedings. In total, the First Lady flew between the United States and France at least three times from Wednesday through Friday.
“As Joe Biden threatens to declare a climate emergency complete with COVID-style lockdowns and punitive measures, he’s using hundreds of thousands of gallons of jet fuel at the taxpayer expense to fly his wife back-and-forth across the Atlantic,” said Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director for Power The Future. “The Biden climate scheme is pretty simple: working families are supposed to shut up and pay up while he and all the other hypocrites live it up.”

Washington, D.C. - Today, Power The Future Founder and Executive Director Daniel Turner issued the following statement in response to Vermont becoming the first state to demand payments from oil companies for a share of what they define as climate damage.
“For those fretting about alleged quid pro quos, pay close attention to recent events in Vermont where the climate movement has shown they are interested in extorting cash above all else. Unelected and unaccountable bureaucrats will rush to define any element of the weather as damaging because they know they can shakedown private industry for more cash. It’s clear the only green the climate movement will ever care about is money."
