And I think that there's somewhat of a difference in the way that some Democratic governors talk about this versus others. We've spent a lot of time talking about how this is not a substitute for baseload power. Some Democratic governors agree with that and they say that out loud.

Well, they need to get the memo to the rest of the people out there who are articulating this as if it's a substitute because it's not. As far as some of those windmills that are already up or they're much further along with approvals already secured, that's not something that I received any guidance from President Trump that's different from what he's already put out.

We stand by, ready to implement his agenda. That's our job, is to implement the Trump mandate. And that's why there haven't been any new approvals since he put that EO out.

I've canceled now $22 billion worth of grants. And to give you an idea of how that compares to the agency's budget, our operating budget is about $10 billion a year. Yet somehow through congressional Democrats and their Inflation Reduction Act and some of their other appropriations through Congress, over $60 billion was obligated and spent through EPA in 2024.

And that number is going to go down by over 65% in 2025. So $22 billion worth of grants. Now, you'll hear terms from Democrats like environmental justice or climate change And they'll define it in a way that there might be Republicans and independents that would agree with.

You say environmental justice, a great argument to be made in support of it is that there are communities that have been left behind and they need funding and support, attention in order to deal with it. It's long overdue. OK, a lot of us can agree with a definition like that. Here's the problem. In the name of environmental justice, they will get a dollar appropriated.

And instead of spending that dollar to actually remediate that environmental concern, they will spend the money to some left wing activist group to tell us that we need to spend a dollar remediating an environmental issue. So we have been canceling all of these grants. I'll give you one example. $50 million went to the Climate Justice Alliance.
