Wait 5 sec.

EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin was on “Wake Up America Weekend” on Newsmax on Saturday to talk about President Trump’s energy dominance.Zeldin explained that climate alarmists contributed to unnecessary regulations that cost Americans trillions of dollars.The video opens with Zeldin this past week at the groundbreaking ceremony of the Northeast Supply Enhancement Pipeline.“This project will move gas underwater from Pennsylvania to New York to help meet the high energy demands in the area. One of the many initiatives from the Trump EPA to help bring down the cost of energy,” Newsmax host said.“So, tell us about this project, and why projects like this are so important?” Newsmax host asked.“Thanks to President Trump’s leadership after he declared a national energy emergency and formed the National Energy Dominance Counsel right after he was sworn back in for this term. He was strongly advocating for this NESE pipeline to get built to deliver natural gas to millions of families,” Zeldin said.“This project now had a groundbreaking this past week and it’s expected to be done by the end of 2027 and this is something that’s been an urgent need,” Zeldin said.“I’m a New Yorker. I was an elected official on Long Island for a very long time. There has been a desperate push for more natural gas supply, but it didn’t get done until President Trump pushed for it,” Zeldin continued.“Last week, you gave the keynote speech at the Heartland Institute Conference on climate change in Washington DC,” Newsmax said.Zeldin explained that when a person disagrees with the climate alarmists, they are usually attacked and labeled. One of the main reasons is because these climate extremists want to hold on to power.“What you have had over the course of many, many years is that you have people in this country who see predictions made from an Al Gore or John Kerry or an AOC. AOC saying the world is about to end,” Zeldin said.“There are people like well, maybe the world isn’t about to actually end,” Zeldin continued.“What happened in 2009 was that the Obama administration created this endangerment finding to give themselves power to put forth trillions of dollars of regulation,” Zeldin explained.“It all started with them giving themselves this power with a very creative interpretation of section 202 of the Clean Air Act,” Zeldin continued.“Any American who has an issue with anything that I just stated here in the last minute will get attacked and labeled and vilified from those who want to be able to hoard more power. They want to impose that control over the economy and have trillions of dollars of regulation even though Congress didn’t pass any type of bill signing off on it,” Zeldin explained.Watch:!function(r,u,m,b,l,e){r._Rumble=b,r[b]||(r[b]=function(){(r[b]._=r[b]._||[]).push(arguments);if(r[b]._.length==1){l=u.createElement(m),e=u.getElementsByTagName(m)[0],l.async=1,l.src="https://rumble.com/embedJS/u5v3ht"+(arguments[1].video?'.'+arguments[1].video:'')+"/?url="+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+"&args="+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify([].slice.apply(arguments))),e.parentNode.insertBefore(l,e)}})}(window, document, "script", "Rumble");Rumble("play", {"video":"v76hlb6","div":"rumble_v76hlb6"});The post Lee Zeldin Weighs in on President Trump’s Energy Dominance Policies and the Northeast Supply Enhancement Pipeline – (VIDEO) appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.
