The U.S. Department of Interior has permitted more than 25 GW of clean energy, including solar, wind and geothermal projects, surpassing this goal ahead of its timeline to do so by next year.
“Since Day One, the Biden-Harris administration has worked tirelessly to expand responsible clean energy development to address climate change, enhance America’s energy security and create good-paying union jobs,” says Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland.
“Surpassing our goal of permitting 25 GW of clean energy by 2025 underscores the significant progress we have made in helping build modern, resilient climate infrastructure that protects our communities from the worsening impacts of climate change. The Interior Department will continue to advance projects that will add enough clean energy to the grid to power millions more homes and help ensure a livable planet for future generations.”
The Department today also announced a final Renewable Energy rule from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) that aims to lower consumer energy costs and the cost of developing solar and wind projects, improve renewable energy project application processes and incentivize developers to continue responsibly developing solar and wind projects on public lands. The final rule also includes additional incentives for use of project labor agreements and American-made materials.
In addition, the BLM announced that two solar projects in California, the Arica and Victory Pass projects, are now fully operational, adding 465 MW of clean electricity to the grid. These projects, the first two approved under the Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan, are located in eastern Riverside County.

John Eastman, One of Trump’s Attorney Henchmen in an Attempt to Overthrow the U.S. Government, Is Disbarred
In April of this year, the California Supreme Court disbarred attorney John Charles Eastman. This after the State Bar Court Review Department in July 2025 affirmed the findings of the State Bar Court Hearing Department’s March 2024 recommendation, which found Eastman culpable of 10 out of 11 charges for egregious and deceitful conduct and recommended his disbarment.
Apparently, certain bodies within the United States are still trying to maintain justice here in America.

Statement on FERC Actions Regarding Large Load Interconnection from ACORE President and CEO Ray Long
Statement on FERC Actions Regarding Large Load Interconnection from ACORE President and CEO Ray Long
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Thank you to Chairman Swett and the Commissioners of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for setting the path forward for creating greater clarity and efficiency, protecting consumers, and providing greater cost transparency for the interconnection of large loads to the grid while also recognizing the unique features of each region. The United States is experiencing historic growth in electricity demand, and FERC’s ction to ensure that every regional grid operator sets fair rules for connecting large loads represents a constructive step toward ensuring the electric grid is prepared for tomorrow’s demand.
We also appreciate the Commissioners ensuring that grid operators identify all opportunities to use advanced transmission technologies to reduce the costs to upgrade our electricity transmission system.
ACORE and our members look forward to working with FERC and other federal partners on further improvements to load and generator interconnection, additional steps on deploying advanced technologies, and delivering critical transmission expansion.

… You’ll believe that Trump is the only force keeping Americans safe–not only from Muslims, but also from feminists, proponents of abortions rights (aka murdering babies), DEI, wokeness, gays, blacks, immigrants, news journalists, the radical left, gun control, environmentalists, healthcare advocates, wind turbine-caused cancer, intellectual elitism, socialism and anti-capitalism, vaccinations, chemtrails, atheism, and satanism.
The dumber America gets the easier it is to make these arguments. Therefore, we need to fight against our colleges and universities.
