NEW REPORT: A private company called @FirstStreetLLC is quietly undermining the home values of everyday Americans.
Its climate risk scores come with no regulatory authority, no appeals process, and no accountability to homeowners. 🧵

Important point from @loriannlarocco: A diesel export ban — even a temporary, voluntary one — only benefits China and puts us at a disadvantage. We need more energy, NOT less.
“It’s going to pave the way for China because you’re going to have Europe and Asia turn to China for diesel.”

America does NOT need the EU intruding into our energy policy.
Yet that’s exactly what Brussels’ “green” agenda seeks to do, using access to the US market to “dictate how American companies operate on American soil under American law.”
That’s wrong.

The Stop EU Overreach Act would push back against this foreign overreach nonsense and protect American energy companies from mandates imposed by unelected EU bureaucrats.
Great op-ed from @RepCraigGoldman on why Congress needs to pass this bill.

Credit agencies like @MoodysRatings, @FitchRatings, and @SPGlobalRatings should not be relying on RCP 8.5 to influence credit decisions.
Doing so is dishonest and wholly unacceptable.

These practices undermine the integrity of the ratings investors depend on and can drive up the cost of capital for American energy producers.
The SEC should hold these agencies accountable to their own methodologies, require disclosure of conflicts of interest, and ensure ratings that are based on sound evidence, NOT an ideological agenda.

Good overview of the effort by 23 state AGs to stop credit agencies from “relying on questionable climate assumptions when assessing financial risk” and using them to push a far-left ESG agenda.

This is absolutely the right call from @MTAGKnudsen and the other state AGs.
Credit ratings should reflect financial reality, not an ESG agenda.
Rating agencies relying on implausible climate scenarios/retracted studies to influence ratings decisions is wholly unacceptable.
JUST IN: 22 State Attorneys General are calling out the major ratings agencies for continuing to push the ESG agenda, in defiance of the Trump Administration's stated goal of driving the woke agenda out of both the public and private sector 👇
The AGs, led by @MTAGKnudsen, have sent a letter to the SEC calling out the major ratings agencies, such as @MoodysRatings, @FitchRatings, and @SPGlobalRatings, for specifically continuing to use the thoroughly discredited Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5 scenario (RCP 8.5).
RCP 8.5 isn’t a real metric and it doesn’t “predict” emissions — it's a worst case "what if" scenario for concoted by climate alarmists, that's been thoroughly discredited and "retired" due to serious errors.
However, the rating agencies are still using it in an effort push insurers, lenders and investors towards basing decisions on dire climate predictions and thus conforming to activists ESG dictates.
The AGs make clear that the rating agencies failure to cease use of the now retracted RCP 8.5 warrants escalated enforcement and a referral to the SEC Office of Credit Ratings.
I couldn't agree more. These woke ratings agencies continue to push ESG policies and blatantly ignored calls for the removal of woke ideology from their business practices. Instead of providing legitimate financial analysis for its customers they continue to rely on ESG-driven metrics, even after they have proven to be implausible.
@ConsumersFirst applauds the state AGs for taking a stand and not letting the rating agencies get away with continuing to use politically motivated and biased materials that promote a woke agenda over consumers.

The Senate's consideration of a $50 billion federal plan to fund three future nuclear innovation campuses is a move in the right direction.
As I explained to @thecentersquare, new power innovation creates a funding model that removes the need for government subsidies/bailouts.

Today, we have spent fuel rods sitting in storage that hold energy equivalent to about 1.2 trillion barrels of oil.
If we transition to commercial recycling on these innovation campuses, like what @Oklo is doing, we recover that valuable fuel, slash the waste's radioactive lifespan from 100,000 years down to just 300 years, and stop that structural financial bleeding.

The issue in the past has been the need for needless government regulation that has stifled the expansion of nuclear energy.
Thankfully, with this new energy model, we won’t need government subsidies or bailouts to succeed. A new era of nuclear innovation could truly be on the way to meet the enormous power demands of the future, including from AI.

A district judge tossed Michigan's bunk antitrust lawsuit against energy producers Tuesday, saying the plaintiffs had no standing.
With Suncor v. Boulder heading to SCOTUS this fall, the Court will hopefully put an end to most of this climate lawfare nonsense.

Nothing says “out of touch” like UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres lecturing Americans this week about forcing us off fossil fuels.
A guaranteed recipe for misery, expensive energy, and unreliable power.
But that’s the UN in a nutshell. 🤡

It’s time for the White House to finish the job on discredited climate scenarios.
That’s why we at @4AmericanEnergy sent a letter urging the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy to broaden its proposed amendment to the Fifth National Climate Assessment.

We’re urging the Trump Administration to retire SSP3-7.0 and RCP6.0 alongside RCP8.5, extend the correction to the datasets built on them, and strip policy advocacy out of a report Congress asked to be scientific.
These scenarios rely on outdated and discredited assumptions and data and should not be treated as reliable to project future trends or be used to guide federal policy.

The price of diesel is too high.
But the answer is NOT an export diesel ban. As I explained to @parisapodaca for @DailyCaller, an export ban is another Washington gimmick that ignores the real problem.
America needs more refining capacity, NOT less.

We already have evidence of what happens when government regulates: CA regulated refineries out of business, and construction projects nationwide are paying the price.
There’s no reason to make the same mistake nationwide.

Opposition to a diesel export ban isn’t new.
Time and time again, @SecretaryWright has been consistent in pointing out that such a ban would only backfire on efforts to bring down prices. 👇
“We’re going to keep them flowing… We can’t be a major energy exporter to the world if we decide sometimes to stop exporting our energy, and it wouldn’t benefit prices in the United States. We produce more diesel fuel than we consume. If you stop exporting diesel, we would turn our refineries down. That would make no sense at all.”

If the Administration is looking to lower the price of diesel without disrupting the markets and inducing shortages they should zero out the 2026 RVO obligation in the RFS.
“According to some, the ethanol mandate costs drivers and their families about 45 cents extra per gallon, or, if you prefer big numbers, the total annual economic cost is estimated to be about $88 billion each year,” Michael McKenna writes.
