President-elect Donald Trump says there will be, quote, all hell to pay if Hamas doesn't release all hostages before he takes office. His statement came on Monday, hours after the Israeli Defense Forces confirmed the death of American-Israeli hostage Omer Nutra, who had been held by Hamas since the October 7th attacks.

And luxury car manufacturer Jaguar is back in hot water again, this time over their new Type 00 concept car design, which they released at Miami Art Week. While Jaguar defends the design, critics have slammed the pink and blue color-schemed car, calling it another part of the company's woke rebrand.

Some people even likened it to a pink Batmobile while poking fun at the brand's copy nothing slogan. This comes after the company launched a radical revamp of its classic brand with an ad that raised eyebrows across the internet.

What exactly will this look like? Yeah, John, you're absolutely right. Things are going to look a lot different from what the Biden administration has done. Basically, we're going to see a return to so-called traditional energy sources like oil and gas. Remember, Trump signaled this as early as election night in his victory speech when he teased RFK Jr. about being an environmentalist.

Bobby, stay away from the liquid gold. That joke is honestly a pretty good distillation of Trump's thoughts on energy policy. For him, this is about global dominance as much as it's about energy independence. And if we look at the energy policy checklist the Trump transition team began circulating earlier this week, we'll see both of these goals reflected.

Trump says that on day one, he'll sign executive orders that would expedite approvals for drilling projects on federal land and off the coast, and lift Biden's ban on liquefied natural gas exports. He's going to re-approve the Keystone Pipeline, which Biden canceled with an executive order on his first day in office.

And he's going to roll back a lot of the Biden administration's climate and energy policies, plans to transition away from natural gas, subsidies for electric vehicle charging stations, things of that nature. So taken together, these policies basically announced to the world that the United States is done with green energy. Trump is saying we're a major energy producer.

We're going to remain a major energy producer. And we're going to start competing with Russia and Saudi Arabia and all these other countries that currently supply the world with oil.

Yeah. One of the long-term goals included in the checklist is asking Congress for funds to replenish the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, which the Biden administration depleted to offset price hikes after Russia invaded Ukraine. That's expected to boost oil demand, which would encourage oil production.

There are also some rumblings that Trump is going to withhold funding from the International Energy Agency, the French group that's focused on reducing carbon emissions. That last one is a good reminder that Trump is going to go for some symbolic wins in addition to his more substantive policy proposals.
