Thank you very much. This is a very important day to me because we're bringing back an industry that was abandoned, despite the fact that it was just about the best, certainly the best in terms of power, real power. And I'm very honored to be doing this. The countries went to beautiful, clean coal, and they've stayed there for many years like China. There it is. China's opening two plants every week. Germany went green, very green. They went so green, they almost went out of business.

Germany was finished. They went to wind. The wind wasn't blowing too much. Please, please birds. And they went to all sorts of other things. You know, the green new scam hit Germany too. And guess what? Now they're back to coal.

They're opening up coal plants all over Germany. We're the ones that aren't doing it. I call it beautiful clean coal. I told my people never use the word coal unless you put beautiful clean before it. Right, Doc? So we call it beautiful clean call. Beautiful clean call.

So today... Oh, God. Thank you. Today we're taking historic action to help American workers, miners, families, and consumers. We're ending Joe Biden's war on beautiful clean call once and for all, and it wasn't just Biden. It was Obama, and it were others.

but we're doing the exact opposite. And all those plants that have been closed are going to be opened. If they're modern enough or they'll be ripped down and brand new ones will be built. All right. We're going to put the miners back to work. And I said I was going to do this. And I've said it loud and clear. They send the kids to the mines.

And it's time to do it. Then we need it. And I look at these people behind me. I don't want to have any arm wrestling contests with any of us. But they've had a little more practice with the lifting things, I will say, but they are great people. And I know them indirectly, indirectly for a long, that includes you guys for a long time. And they're great people and with great families and come from areas of the countries. Oh, he's got three of them?

We love. Damn. And we really respect. I don't want to thank Secretary Bergman for doing such an incredible job from the country. the day I met him, I knew I wanted to have him in my cabinet. He took a shot at running, and he was so good and so solid that he made no news. And that was good. But I saw him, and I saw his beautiful wife, Catherine, and I said that they're going to be a team.

They're a great team, and they're going to be working for this country someday. And one of the first people I called after I won. So thank you very much. and along with the energy secretary, Chris Wright. Is that a pink tie? I was going to make Doug, actually, the energy secretary. And he said, sir, you have one person who's much better than me at this, Chris Wright. I said, who the hell is Chris Wright?

I have no idea who he is. And then I learned that he's the most respected person in the energy business by far, far away. For Doug to say that, Doug's got a big ego. It was very tough to say that. Catherine was there, right? Catherine, you said, wow, I've never heard that before. But Chris, you guys are fantastic. Stand up. All three of you, please stand up.

Wow. Great. That's a great team. It's no better team than that. And they're going to produce energy, the likes of which nobody's seen before. You know, we need to do the AI, all of this new technology that's coming on land. We need more than double the energy, the electricity that we currently have. You take all of the electricity in the country right now for houses, for buildings, for everything, we need to more than double it to be number one.

We're now way ahead of everybody at AI. China's in second place, but way behind, and they're going to be producing a lot of energy and a lot of electricity for this. And so are we, and we're going to get approvals very fast. And I would say the man that's almost comparable to you in terms of the importance to this, maybe he's even more comparable. I hate to tell you, a guy named Brayette. Lee Zeldon, who's a friend of mine for a long time.

He was a great guy. All right, Baldi. Sit down. Lee was a great lawyer, and he ran for office, and he won immediately. I gave him a very important endorsement. He won for Congress in an area that was unwinnable. He couldn't have. They were all saying, was he wasting his time.

That's Democrat territory. And I liked Lee and New Lee, and he ended up winning a seat in a massive upset. Nobody knew what happened, actually. And then he was there for a long time. How many years were you there? Eight years. It was very popular.

And then he almost ran, he almost won the governorship of New York, which is lost by a few points. Yeah. Which was an amazing run. And I said, we got to get you in with us in some form. And we did. And he's head of the Environmental Agency, EPA,

and doing a, a great job and I said, if we have a nuclear power plant, Lee, can you get it approved in less than a month? He said, he said, I'll do it faster. And by the way, he'll do a fast job. Yeah, whatever happened to nuclear power. He's going to do also a great job.

It's going to be an important job. But the magic rocks. Even smile about it, but, you know, I've been involved in the approval process for a long time having been in real estate and you go years and years and years for absolutely nothing. And even in those days,

I used to say, you know, this whole thing could have been approved in a week or two weeks or three weeks, and it would have been just as good. But they'd take you down on the path, and you'd spend years waiting, and then sometimes you get rejected. I wasn't rejected too much. I was the king of zoning. I did well, but it was such nonsense. It was so terrible. The process was so terrible.

But this is the big leagues now, and he's the head person in the whole country, and I appreciate it. And I appreciate you doing it. And already they're respecting you very. greatly. So thank you very much, Lee. Great job. So we have a lot of senators and congressmen and women, and I'm going to just introduce the ones that I see here because, you know, it's always a problem when I do this because I leave one or two out and that's the end. I never get their vote again. I never get their vote. It takes years to recover, but we'll give it a shot because Senator John Barrasso, who's my friend and a great gentleman. Thank you very much, John.

So we're going to name everybody off now. All right. Thank you, John. Cynthia Lomas, fantastic woman who believes like I do with. She believes like I do in these people, right? She believes in them maybe even more than I do. That's pretty good from day one. Thank you, Cynthia. You're doing a fantastic job. Kevin Kramer, my friend.

Where is Kevin? Oh, shit. I think he was here because he had a problem. And I just, well, pay my respects. He wanted to be here so badly, but he had a difficult problem that he's working through. and we all love Kevin. John Hoven, John, thank you very much. Thank you.

Very much. Steve Danes. Thank you, Steve. And Steve is a picker of great candidates, like he picked a guy named Tim Sheehe who's here. Where's Tim? Where is Tim? Oh, Shih. Right.

And Tim Sheehee has turned out to be a wonderful senator, and that was your pick. And we went with it, and you were right. And we have a great one in Tim, so thank you, Tim. I thought he was going to make a trans joke. Steve, Shelley Moore Capito. Shelly, thank you very much. Yeah. I thought he about to do it.

West Virginia, from West Virginia, she has to like, you have no choice. Even if you didn't like it, you have to like all right? But they were doing a number on you. They were doing a number on you with the coal stuff. Missed opportunity. You have not only coal, but you have among the best coal anywhere in the world, so thank you very much.

A friend of mine for a long time, I'm the one that got him to change his religion in a sense. He changed the party. He went from a Democrat. I said, Jim, you're not a Democrat. But he changed the Republican. He's one of the most popular Republicans and one of the most popular political leaders of the country. Jim Justice. I call him Big Jim. Big Jim Justice. You'll be Big Justice. Sounds way better. Oh, no. The Costco kid has that. No, mine. And he was in the business. And so am I doing the right thing? You would know better than anybody in this room. I'm doing the right thing, Jim?

I think so, right? Thank you very much, Jim. Cindy, hi, Smith. Cindy, thank you, hon. Very good, good job. People are going to be happy. This is a glaze session, huh? And all friends of mine, Mike Lee, Mike, thank you very much.

Big glaze. We have a lot of people from Congress, congressmen and women, representatives. Morgan Griffith. Morgan, thank you. Thank you very much. Bruce Westerman. Bruce. Thank you, Bruce. Bob Latter.

Thank you, Bob. Good job. Troy Boulderson. Troy. I haven't seen you in a long time since those early, that early race I endorsed him before anyone knew who he was. And he ended up winning. That was another surprise, right? That was a long time ago. It's crazy how Trump made all the people. these people win. You're doing a great job. Thank you very much, Troy. Carol Miller, Carol, thank you. Carol, West Virginia. Riley Moore. Riley. Hi, Riley. Thanks. Mike boast. Mike, thank you very much.

Troy Downing. I'll bring up big balls. Troy. Thank you. Oh, he says something. What is it, Cole? Is there coal in that bag? Even better. It's clean cold. I'll take. I like it. I'll take it. I'll take it. I'll take it. Right now, thank you very much. Oh, my God. Hal, Wrenogers, Hal, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Jesus.

Andy Barr. Thank you, Andy. Good luck with everything. I hear good thing. Troy Downing. Troy. Thank you. Thank you.

Wow. Thank you very much, Troy. Hal Rogers. Oops. Harriet Higerman. Harriet. Hi. How are you, Harriet?

We just left Harry. This is one of the finest attorneys you will ever see. I have seen her in action, and she is brutal. I never want her against me that I can tell you. Dan Muser. Dan. Thank you, Dan. Thanks, Dan. Good job you doing. Wesley Hunt, my friend, too. Wesley, great. I love your commercial. Jesus. Pete Staubber. Pete. Thank you, Pete. We're doing a roll call. Great hockey player, he was, right? Great hockey player. He was, right? Great. hockey player. A great gentleman just broke the record of Wayne Gretzky. The great one is Wayne Gretzky, but we have another great one too, huh? Just broke the record. It was great. Governor Greg, Gianforte. Greg. Nice seeing. Gentlemen. Thank you very much, Greg. Gentlemen. Bill, Lee. Bill, thank you very much. Patrick Morrissey, West Virginia, just got elected. Yeah.

Mark, Gordon. Mark, thank you. Thank you very much. And we have a lot of others and I'm in trouble because I can't, I don't know. I got five or six others that I see quickly, but I'm just not going to do it. Don't hold it against me because we have to get back to the most important people in the room. These people, do you know that, right?

Oh, boy. So the energy workers and the coal miners in the area that I'm standing on, the area that I'm standing on, and there's a lot of weight on this platform, so I don't know what's going to happen. I hope it's structurally designed for you guys. That guy smiles. But we have just really well-deserving great American patriots, and it's such an honor to be here and doing, making such a big move, such a bold move in energy. Because, you know, for years, people would just bemoan this industry and, and decimate the

industry for absolutely no reason because with modern technology and all of the other things that we do, it's one of the great, great forms of energy. That's why other countries, leading countries, are using it some exclusively. For four long years, Joe Biden and congressional Democrats try to abolish the American coal industry. They did everything in their power while he was awake, which wasn't much, shutting down dozens of coal plants, banning call leases on federal lands and putting thousands and thousands of coal miners out of work, destroying their lives, actually. Destroying their lives.

I'll never forget when I went to West Virginia, which I won by 48 points, I think, right? Big Jim, I won by 48 points. But in the first campaign where Hillary Clinton was about four states too early, and she was talking about how bad call was and how they were going to teach call miners how to make widgets and gadgets and technology which they didn't want to do. They want to mine. One thing I learned about the coal mine is that's what they want to do. You could give them a penthouse on 5th Avenue

and they'd be unhappy. They want a mine call. That's what they love to do. And she was going to put them in a high-tech industry where you make little self-hounder-hand. Now they have to learn the mine. I don't know. Do you think he'd be good at that? I don't know. You don't want to be. And she was brutal. about three weeks before. But then she had a problem. She went to West Virginia looking for votes,

and that was a bad. That was a bad situation. You remember that. And there was a coal miner around the table with his family. And he was in tears because of what they had done to him and his family. And I hope he's still around, but that man made quite an impression on the world and the public. I think what he's saying here is very true. And we ended up winning in a great election, but we ended up winning by a lot. The Democrats screen, You scam killed jobs and sent prices soaring here in America. But meanwhile, China opened two coal plants every single week. And other countries likewise went very strongly back into coal.

Some of them never got off. He got sad. Those are the ones that didn't have the problems. The Biden energy policy was to put America last. We want to be last. We've got to be last. Not a good policy. Under my administration, we're putting America first.

It's very simple. America's always going to be first. Sounds good. On my first day in office, I terminated the Green News scam. I declared the National Energy Emergency and withdrew from the unfair one-sided and extremely costly to the United States-only Paris Climate Accord. Oh, he's, bro, he is loving it. Oh, man.

You know, under the Paris Climate Accord, we had a terrible situation. We were, we would have paid over a trillion dollars. Think of it. over a trillion dollars. And Russia was paying almost nothing. Russia had a 1992 standard. China was paying nothing. China didn't kick in until 2035.

This was five years ago. So they didn't kick in for many years. India had no standard whatsoever. But we had the highest standard you could imagine. We had to start paying from day one. And we had to pay lots of money. Wow. We paid for everything.

That's a lot. So I was not a big fan of the, the Paris Accord, and I let it be known, and I got out of it early. Then they went back into it. We pulled out. And now we get back out of it. And hopefully we can be there for a long time, okay? A long time because it was a scam to take money away from the United States and actually hurt us very badly with coal and with other things.

Now under the executive order that I will sign in a few moments, we're slashing unnecessary regulations that targeted the beautiful clean coal. We will rapidly expedite leases for coal mining on federal lands, and these two gentlemen are going to do a real job of it. You've already started. And we'll streamline permitting. We will end the government bias against coal, and we're going to unlock the sweeping authorities of Defense Production Act, the Defense Production Act, to turbo-charge coal mining in America. They made it impossible to, impossible. You actually, I know a friend of mine has a plant. He said, you know, it's a shame.

I'm ripping it down and I'm replacing it with another form of energy. I won't tell you because it's also very good, but it's not as powerful as this. He said, you know, the plant I'm building, the new plant is literally half as good. It's no less, you know, it's not probably even as good environmentally. But he said it would produce half the power for more money, much more money. It'll never compete with that beautiful plant I have down the road, which was really a modernized coal plant. Well, he'll be happy to know that he can open that plant up very quickly, and it's going to produce a lot. But he was complaining.

He said, this is so much better. He wasn't doing that as politic in me. He was doing that because that's what he felt. And he knew every form of energy. We talked about that. He knew every form of energy. But our government is going to do something that's very different. I don't think even you two know about this.

This was my idea from about 15 minutes before. before I got up here. We're going to guarantee that we have a strong business for many years to come. That your coal companies and your miners don't get

all excited about their jobs and then should a radical left liberal become president, they end the business right away and somebody's built a plant and spent hundreds of millions of dollars in building a plant and the plant is going to be

closed because a Democrat got in or a liberal got in. They're opposed to call. Can't let that happen, guys. And Republicans are very much for it. Clean call. And we're going to give a guarantee that the business will not be terminated by the ups and downs of the world of politics. So should somebody come in to this very important office and say, oh, well, you spend hundreds of millions of dollars and you guys have giving up your life because you want to be in coal, and then all of a sudden you don't have a life anymore because it's what you know the best. That's not going to happen. We're going to give a

guarantee that it's not going to happen so that if somebody comes in, they cannot change it at a whim. They cannot just going to go, they're going to have to go through hell to close you up. All right, so that's pretty good. We're going to give that in the form of a guarantee that we're writing on right now structurally and from a legal standpoint. So your investments are going to also be protected. And you're going to have no reason to be concerned about your future, your life, or your investment if you're a minor, as this great governor was a minor, actually. He was one of the larger coal miners. He could fit up here very easily, you know, big Jim. But he was a great, success, but they were very, very tough on him. And he did a beautiful job with a beautiful product.

already under our leadership, the Department of Interior has approved the expansion of the Spring Creek mine in Montana, supporting 280 coal mining jobs and unlocking over 40 million tons of coal. Forty million. And there's more to come. That's an assload of coal. Big one. That's an assload. And there's more to come in the states of Wyoming, Alabama, Utah, North Dakota, and many others.

West Virginia, I can't believe they didn't put West Virginia down. It's lucky I. Country roads. mentioned that, right? Can you imagine if I didn't mention West Virginia, I would have been in big trouble. They didn't market down here. It's good to have a president like that. They can pick that up, right? You think Joe Biden would have picked that up? I don't think so, too. They didn't mention West Virginia. I don't think so. I don't think you'd be standing up here either. The value of untapped coal in our country is 100 times greater than the value of all the gold and Fort Knox, and we're going to unleash it and make America rich and powerful again. Under this order, I'm also directing Secretary of Right to use billions of dollars in federal funding to invest in the next generation of coal technology, which is an amazing technology in terms of getting the full potential of coal and also doing it a very clean environmental way. Pound for pound coal is the single, most reliable, durable, secure, and powerful form of energy there is on Earth today. Wow.

It's a big statement. You never hear those statements, you know. What about wind turbines? that before from a politician, have you? Well, maybe from that politician, but not from not too many. What about wind turbines? That's the way it is. I say it again, pound for pound. Coal is the single most reliable, durable, secure, and powerful form of energy. It's cheap, incredibly efficient, high density, and it's almost indestructible. You could drop a bomb on it, and it's going to be there for you to

use the next day, which you can't say with any other form of energy. virtually indestructible. Most importantly, we have more of it here in America than anywhere else on Earth. We have more coal than any other country. You go to Australia, they have fantastic amounts of coal. You know who they sell it to China. They sell it to China. They're nearby.

They sell a lot of it to China. But we have more than anywhere else on Earth. We also have more liquid gold than anywhere on Earth. So we're really an energy behemoth, but we're unleashing. that also, that's going to be another part, but I didn't even want to mention that. It's not down here because I didn't want to mention today is about clean,

beautiful coal, so I'm going to give this to you. Oil. It's a spray. Take that. They gave it to the big boy. All right. For example, we believe it's possible to extract enormous amounts of critical minerals

and rare earths, which you know we need for technology and high-tech technology and the process of coal mining. Making in America the mineral superpower of the world, actually. In addition, I'm instructing the Department of Justice to identify and fight every single unconstitutional state or local regulation that's putting our coal miners out of business. And we are withdrawing all of those objections from our government today. It's all being withdrawn.

So all of you people that have been fighting for your lives, we all are. are withdrawing all of that today. We have excellent lawyers. Excellent. Have you noticed that lots of war firms have been signing up with Trump? Yeah. $100 million. It was a Donald W.

It was. For damages that they've done. But they give you $100 million and then they announced that, but we have done nothing wrong. And I agree they've done nothing wrong. Well, what the hell? They give me a lot of money considered they've done nothing wrong. And we'll use some of those people, some of those great firms. They are great firms, too.

They just had a bad moment. But we're going to use some of those firms to work with you on your leasing and your other things. And they'll do a great job. I think they're going to do a fantastic job. And for those of you that want to know, the tariffs you've been hearing about tariffs, we've taken in almost $2 billion a day in tariffs. Two billion a day. and we're doing very well

That's a lot of money When do I get it And we're doing very well in making I call them tailored deals Not off the rack these are tailored highly tailored deals Right now Japan is flying here to make a deal What do you mean? South Korea is flying here to make a deal

And others are flying here I mean my only problem is I'm not sure I have enough We're going to have to use those great law firms I think to help us with that But we're going to probably do that, actually. We're going to use them. Yeah, everybody from the right place. Because we have to, we need a lot of talent.

We have a lot of countries coming in. They want to make deals. If I told them about making those deals two years ago or three years ago or five years ago, they'd be laughing at us now. They're all signing up, Mike, you know that. So it's going to be a great thing. But we're taking, think of that, $2 billion a day. That's a lot of money.

That's a lot of money, even in the coal business, isn't it? It's a lot of money. And America's going to be very rich again very soon. You're going to see that happening. You see it all along. And it's so that whole situation that, you know, it was somewhat explosive. But if we didn't do that, we wouldn't be talking the way we're talking right now. It's been amazing what's happened.

Sometimes you have to mix it up a little bit. But we've had great consideration. We've had talks with many, many countries, over 70. They all want to come in. Our problem is can't see that many that fast. Yeah, we got it. But we don't have to because, as you know, the tariffs are on, and the money is pouring in.

He tariff China against a level that we've never seen before. Bonus 50%. And it's going to be great for us. It's going to be great for other countries. We've been ripped off and abused by countries for many years with the tariff's situation. They've used tariffs against us. We didn't use tariffs against them or in any way.

I mean, we just didn't use them of any monumental proportion. And so we are doing it now. We have tariffs on cars. We have tariffs on lumber, tariffs on steel and aluminum. Steel plants are going up because of it all over the country. We have 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum. them. I think the steel workers like me even more than the coal miners like me. I'm pretty sure that that's true. We have, instead of having no steel business, I put them on originally in my first

term, we wouldn't have had one steel mill in the United States if I didn't do that. And now we upped it and we. This is a guy, bro. Not only are we taking it a lot of money, but we're protecting our workers, our steel workers. We're protecting our steel industry. And one thing you know, that steel and things like steel you need because you need it from a defense standpoint, you need steel for your tanks and your planes and your everything and certain industries you can get away with not having, but others you need and steel is one you need. So I want to let you know that's in full force and effect. And literally as we speak, I spoke to executives in the steel industry over the last few days and they're all coming in to build plants in the United

States of America because if you build them in the United States, you have no tariffs to pay. There are no tariffs to pay. Zero. If you build them outside, using outside labor and hurting our businesses and you send your product in, you have to pay a price for that, and they will be having tariffs, as you know. It's an amazing thing. This has been something used against us for many years by other countries.

China in particular, but others, not just China, others. And taken advantage of us, ripped us off and left us for dead, frankly. And I believe if I didn't become your president, I believe that this country would have had problems like they've never had before because it was serious damage in so many other ways, not only the border where people came rushing into our country from prisons and jails and mental institutions, murderers, drug dealers, and some vicious, vicious criminals. 11,08 murderers came into our country. We have to get them out.

We're getting them out. 11,08 of that number half committed murder on more than two people, more than two people. And this is what they allowed into our country with their open border policy of lunacy. And we're taking care of that, just like we're taking care of you today. were taking care of that. I want to thank Christine Holm and Tom Holman for doing an unbelievable job.

The whole thing is what the job they're doing is incredible. It's really an unforced error. It should have never happened that we have to be spending such time and resources, Mr. Senator, right, on getting people out of our country that shouldn't be here. I mean, literally from mental institutions and St. Asylum is were opened up and emptied into our country. prisons from all over the world, not just South America, prisons from, think of this, from Africa, the Congo, a lot of people from the Congo, prisons in the Congo. Prisons from Asia from all over were opened up. And I knew that when I heard it was an open border policy. I said, if you do that, every country is going to be dumping people that they don't want into our country. And that's what's happened, but we're cleaning it out. And the courts, we had a good decision.

as you know, from the Supreme Court allowing us to do that. We have judges that didn't want us to do it. We have judges that wanted the very evil gang members from Trendy, Iraqwa, and MS-13. They didn't want them taken out of the country and put in very powerful prisons. When you look, you've all seen those clips, are pretty amazing clips. We saw, yeah, the music video. I want to thank El Salvador. They've done an incredible job.

But we've been fortunately winning those cases, but we have judges. that are out of control that say, oh, bring them back, bring them back. We don't want them back. We don't want them back. Can you imagine you spend all of that time, energy and money on getting them out, and then you have a judge that sits there, a local judge who sits there, federal judges, sit there and say, no, no, bring them back. The one was brought back, or they want to bring them back,

because he wasn't a member of Tren Deraqua. He was a member of MS-13, which is just as big. So they misidentified him, but it sounds to me like he was a member of MS-13, so they want him brought back because he wasn't treated properly. Oh, wow, too bad. We've got to be smart. Our country's got to get a lot smarter than it is, but we have to give the people that are empowered to do this kind of work, and it's not pleasant work. We have to give them the option of making our country great again, and that's what they're doing, and I have great respect for those people. And they're doing it out of love.

They could get a much easier job. They're doing it out of love for our country. It's so important, just like I'm doing this with coal today for love for our country. Earlier this afternoon, I signed another executive order to strengthen our electric grid by ensuring that coal-fired power plants are always available to meet surging demand for electricity. So we always are going to have coal. Plants can run 24 hours a day in rain, sleet, or snow. And you will not be subject to the incredible blackout situation that's taking place in California

where they have blackouts all the time. Call seems pretty good. It's an amazing thing with California. They have blackouts and brownouts at levels that nobody's ever seen before. And all they want to do is keep going the way they're going. And they're doing a very poor job. As you probably heard, I released billions of gallons of water going in from upstate California

from the most northern parts of California probably comes in from Canada to a certain extent. Thank you very much Canada we appreciate it and I released it it was being sent out to the Pacific Ocean

I've been working on Gavin and some of the politicians for years and they didn't want to do that because they were protecting a smelt, a fish that was perhaps in trouble but it's not unique to that area. And because of that, you had numbers,

you had fires. Nobody's ever seen anything like what happened. Think of what it would have been like if you had fire hydrants that had water in them. If you had sprinkler systems in houses, a lot of these luxury houses where they had beautiful sprinkler systems, there was no water. They had no water to put out the fires.

Water is very good for putting out fires. Yeah, it is. They just didn't learn it. But we now have, millions of gallons, billions, actually, they say, of gallons of water pouring into California from the Pacific Northwest, I guess they would say mostly Pacific Northwest, but other parts of the northern sections of California and beyond. And it's a beautiful thing to see. I saw a picture of it this morning. The water is just flowing down there. I said, why didn't they do this? I told

them to do it. My first term, I said, do it. And I don't. I don't. I don't know. I think the second term is just more powerful. They do it. When I say do it, they do it, right? All right. And we actually had to do some pretty strong things to get them to open it up. They had, think of this, they had all that water pouring out right into the Pacific. They had a big valve, like a giant valve, as big as this room. And they turned the valve, takes one day to turn it, and they face it toward the Pacific Ocean and the water, all that was coming down, all millions and millions of gallons coming down, they put it into the Pacific Ocean, which for the Pacific Ocean is like a drop of water.

But for California, it would have been unbelievable. So we did, and I'm very proud of the fact that we did it. We did that against a lot of heat and a lot of environmental nonsense. From now on, we'll ensure that our nations critically needed coal plants, as an example, remain online and fully operational. They're always going to be operational. And again, we're going to have guarantees that government cannot close them down, close you down, and destroy your lives. To that end, I'm also instructing Secretary Wright to save the Choyah coal plant in Arizona, a big plant, which has been slated for destruction. We're going to keep those coal miners on the job.

I'm going to tell them to just remain calm because we're going to have that plant opening and burning the, clean call, beautiful clean call in a very short period of time. You know all about that, right? Great. That's what we need, boys. Finally. That's a big one.

As part of our historic deregulatory efforts this afternoon, I'm also granting immediate relief to 47 companies operating 66 coal plans, very big ones all over the country, recusing and making them available for coal production almost in the immediate future, but we're going to be crushing Biden-era environmental restrictions. These are restrictions that made it impossible, impossible

to do anything having to do, frankly, with energy, even beyond coal. Wow. It's really beyond even coal. What a idiot. We have clean air, we have clean water, and now we have clean coal, And at the same time, we're going to do other things and other forms of technology and also energy. There's auto pin. Like our country has never really seen before and never been known to do before because of all sorts of restrictions having to do with the green news scam, which, by the way, was devised by somebody that never even studied. You know that they never even studied anything to do with the environment. It was a young congresswoman. She came up with the idea.

Oh, no. And based on that, I guess we only have, well, actually, we should have all been gone because they gave us only a few years left on Earth, right? Right, Greg? We were going to be gone. We're all going to be gone. The environment. What they have to worry about is the nuclear heat. They don't have to worry about environmental heat.

They have to worry about nuclear heat. And if we're smart, we're working on that right now with others having to do with Iran and some other countries. but that's the heat you're going to have to worry about. You don't have to worry about the air is getting warmer. The ocean will rise one quarter of an inch within the next 500 to 600 years, giving you a little bit more waterfront property. They say this is good at, these guys can handle that. The nuclear we have a bigger problem with, right?

So we're going to make sure that that's safe. We're going to make sure that that's safe. With us today are some of the amazing workers who will benefit from these policies, the policies that we're doing and so proud of doing, including Jeff Crow, a minor from West Virginia, Jeff. Would you come up and say a few words? Ah, ha, okay. Great.

I told you guys. He can be on one now. Good afternoon. Mr. President, I want to first thank you for having me and my fellow miners here. It is an honor and a privilege to be a part of today's events. I believe this past November that America clearly spoke about what we wanted for our country. It is reassuring for Americans to have a president in office who will truly put the United States of America above all else. This is true, brother.

With putting America first, you have spoken numerous times about energy independence. I believe most don't understand the importance of that. Coal is one of the major factors in energy independence and accounts for a large portion of America's energy. Coal is one of the most reliable and cheapest forms of electricity. For too long, coal has been a dirty word that most are afraid to speak about. Most of those that would speak negatively about coal do so from an uneducated standpoint. Many are unaware of the engineering and technology that are used in today's mining to create a clean, energy efficient product. All of this is done while using the safest practices in the industry.

Speaking for West Virginia, coal provides approximately 50,000 jobs for those that work in the mines and the businesses that support them. It also accounts for over 50% of West Virginia's export product. To name a few, we employ engineers, teachers, physical therapists, accountants, truck drivers, high school and college graduates. All of these occupations and graduates who here loves coal. coal industry to provide a better way of life for them and their families. Everyone in our industry works long hours and days to provide a reliable energy product, and too many times it goes unnoticed. I've personally worked in the industry for 23 years.

I choose to do this daily to provide my wife and children with the life that they deserve. Prior administrations have done all they could to eliminate the coal industry. Sorry, one second. I'm getting there. In my opinion, they have done so with an unconstitutional. unethical and uneducated approach. But we are still strong, we are still here, and we are still needed in order to make America great again. Having a president and an administration that understands and needs and importance of coal is more than appreciated. It gives the industry a form of reassurance to know that we have a president

in place that supports us. For my family to the over 3,000 employees of ACNR and for the coal companies, miners, and businesses throughout our great country that rely on the coal industry, we say thank you for your continued support. Uh-huh. Yeah. I personally thank you for what you do for our country and for our industry. It has been my pleasure to be here today to help you usher in the golden age of America. Oh, that's great, yeah.

Thank you. Of course. Thank you. Time to invest in coal company stocks? That's right. It's the future, guys. We did a good job. Let me have that speech.

I want to have that. Yes, sir. Yes. I had a couple of good lines in there when I came up. Now, actually, what I want to do, I'm going to sign it for you because I think, I mean, he worked on. Oh, man. And look how good his eyes must be to read that. I lost it once. Oh, God.

And hopefully you can sell it tonight for a lot of money. Oh, sir. I'll use that one. Oh my God. Okay. That's great. Thank you very much. And he gave him the pen to, oh, geez.

The content president, that's right. Thank you very much, Jeff. And also with us is Tony Campbell of the East Kentucky Power Cooperative. And Tony's quite a gentleman and very respected in the industry. Come on up, Tony. Thank you. power and this is more about coal. Oh.

We've got bringing that big balby. Mr. President, on behalf of East Kentucky Power Cooperative, the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association, and electric cooperatives across this America, thank you for your leadership to restore

American energy dominance. Electric co-ops keep the lights on for 42 million Americans across 56% of the land mass. We are owned by the communities and businesses we serve and provide electricity to growing communities, new data centers, and manufacturing plants. Mr. President, electric co-ops are powering America, and we are proud to partner with

you and your administration to power America into the future. Well, our electric cooperatives in Kentucky understands the importance of reliable, affordable, and American-made energy, especially coal and natural gas, coal, fuels most of the electricity generated by our cooperative. America must keep coal plants open and running to ensure reliable electricity when we need it most. To meet growing demand over the next decade and ensure fuel security, America will need more always available electric generation

power, such as coal. And we want to recognize the hardworking American men, women, that support our mission. To all America's line workers, our coal miners, thank you for your dedicated service to our country. All right. Affordable and reliable electricity is the cornerstone of our economy, especially American manufacturing. However, too many government leaders have pushed policies that have made our electric grid significantly less reliable and our energy too expensive. That begins to change now. Your actions today will prevent the premature closing of essential power plants and help us meet tomorrow's energy needs,

and they will help us continue to deliver reliable, safe, and affordable electricity. Mr. President, thank you in particular for providing immediate, much-needed relief from the Biden-EPA regulations that would force the shutdown of critical coal units. There it is. You knew they were going to bring him up. Finally, I want to say congratulations on the All-Star Energy Team you've assembled. Electric co-ops have already been working with Secretary's Bergram, Wright and Rollins, and Administrator Zeldon, and we are excited for all we can accomplish together.

Mr. President, thank you again for your actions today and for your support for the electric cooperatives as we worked to keep the lights on in America. on in America. That's about what I'd expect. Fuck our breathable air, am I right? Well, we still had the masks from COVID, so we're going to be all right. Yeah, don't worry about it. It's all coming together.

Thank you, Tony. Thank you very much, Tony. Appreciate it. Every day under the Trump administration, we will continue to lower costs for American families, create jobs for American workers, and very importantly, And very importantly, unlock unlimited amounts of affordable American energy, including, as I said, and I'll say for the last time, beautiful, clean coal. Our country is blessed. The last time? I got a feeling it's not.

Our country is blessed with the most abundant natural resources on Earth as nobody has what we have. And we're going to use it, too. We're going to use it in a very responsible way. together we're going to tap that magnificent potential to give our people the glorious future that they deserve better than they've ever had in the past. I mean, they had a good future. If you look, 20 years ago, they thought they had a good future. It was ripped away from them, torn away from them with nonsense. And we're not going to let that happen. This is going to be a glorious future for them. And I want to thank everybody for being here. And I want to thank you and you and you and that whole group. Okay. We're going to have the signing now. by the way, and our great congressmen and women, for being here in such a large number, because you've been helping us make these decisions.

These are big decisions, and this is a really big one, and this is one that's going to be, I think we're going to look back and with great pride at what we've done today, not just in putting people to work, but at really reawakening our country. And thank you very much, and thank you all for being here. Thank you. There it is. Very much. All righty. He bought the sign it.

Let's get it. get it. It's time. Come on up. Mr. President. Yes. First one. We have four items prepared for your signatures this afternoon, sir. The first of these executive orders is maybe one of the most significant executive orders of your administration thus far. This directs all departments and agencies of the federal government to end all discriminatory policies against the coal industry. Wow. This ends the leasing moratorium that prevents new coal projects on federal land. It's a big coal situation.

All permitting and funding for new coal projects to allow the coal industry to flourish under your leadership. That's great. Big coal situation. Let's go. Wow. Buy coal now. Okay. There it is.

Yep. Sir, there are currently dozens of coal plants in America that are in imminent danger of being forced to close based on unscientific and unrealistic policy. policies enacted by the Biden administration. What we're going to do is essentially impose a moratorium on those policies taking effect to protect coal plants that are currently operating to ensure that they're able to continue producing power and continue providing jobs to Americans in the coal industry. Right.

Thank you very much. This guy's my favorite kind of bald. That guy? I don't know about that. Wow. Looks good. Sir, you've made grid reliability and security a key focus of this administration. This executive order is going to promote grid security and reliability by ensuring in part that our grid policies are focused on secure and effective energy production and energy transmission,

as opposed to woke policies that discriminate against secure sources of power, like coal and other fossil fuels. Oh shit We'll sign that one right now Get it out of there Yep Man It's about time No more woke

Lastly sir One of the biggest problems we have in this space Is Democrat States radical leftist States enacting policies And enacting an agenda That discriminates Against coal

Against secure sources of energy many of these policies are unconstitutional and illegal and with this executive order you're going to be instructing your Department of Justice to vigorously pursue and investigate these state policies that we believe are illegal or unconstitutional. Wow, okay. Great. Put him in jail.

Thank you very much. He went to Harvard when Harvard was good. There was a while ago. Oh, my God. Oh my god Jesus Christ What are we're going to tell Republicans who are worried Montserristen See ya

What are they ask? I don't know something stupid Man That's the fact So we're bringing back Cole Well that that's great. Okay well um fuck I guess so we've got Uh so we've got uh so we

we're bringing back coal that's that's pretty big right i mean like we didn't we haven't had that for a while and uh i feel like this is a pretty good event right i mean our children will hate us for this well then we'll just be like the the boomers right and that's it and so uh what do i think about it i mean like honestly i don't know it feels like i don't know i feel like we should do more nuclear power and not coal i mean like i'm not an expert in this i don't know but like i think like anybody afraid of nuclear power is just being a bitch. And so, like, just go and do that instead. Like, that's what I would rather see.

But, like, I'm not a fucking expert in this. So, like, I'm not really going to go and be like, this is what we should do. Because I really don't know what we should do with this. I have no idea. So, yeah, it's the same thing with fucking, what do you call it? With coal, like, I don't know how safe coal is. I have no idea. But, yeah, the Karens banned nuclear out of fear.

That makes sense. I could see that. I could easily see that. You know, that's probably what happens. happened. Yeah, you know what? I don't know if that's true or not, but I think it's true. I think it's probably definitely true. Yeah, that definitely 100% happened. Yeah, I'm sure that happened now. And vote for Trump. I can't believe this is the state of politics. Imagine 10 or 20 years from now. We're cooked. Honestly, guys, like, I feel like if you voted for him and

you're unhappy, you are a moron, but you are an idiot. If you voted for Trump and you're mad about what he was doing what he's been doing you are a dumbass he said he was going to do all of this stuff he said he was going to do the tariffs he said he was going to get rid of the woke shit he said he was going to get rid

of like transgender in the military he said all of these things ahead of time he even said he's going to bring back drilling to the US the drill baby drill and then bringing back coal like this whole thing if you're mad that you didn't get

you voted for you weren't paying attention to what you were voting for i'm going to tell you that man and uh yeah that's it promises made promises kept for better or for worse that's a fact and so anyway trump is the last chance of the west well we'll see what happens right but uh yeah he was going to get rid of this in military oh men being pregnant yeah yeah nuclear powers literally the safest and cleanest form of energy this is a literal fact and again can't be refuted at this point i'm not a i'm not an expert in that. I don't want to go and talk about it because I just don't feel comfortable. I know that I don't know a lot about that. So don't like Trump, but still better than the other option. I think that's the way a lot of people felt. You know, I think in general, like it wasn't even really

Kamala Harris. It was everything that Kamala Harris represented. I think that she represented a, you know, a culture and she represented a type of person that I think that America was just fucking tired of. they didn't want to deal with like you know the weird you know basically like Joe Biden said like he didn't he wanted to have like a female like vice president or like some bullshit so like that was like a big reason I think that really pretty much set her up to fail right there and Karen yeah people are just tired of of being ruled over by Karen so I think that's basically it
