The Last Thing America Needs Is a Railroad Monopoly

October 15, 2025

President Trump has made one thing clear: American Energy Dominance is back. From reopening federal lands for production to rebuilding critical infrastructure, this administration is cutting red tape and restoring the strength of America’s energy supply chain. But now, a proposed $85 billion merger between Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern threatens to undo that progress. Power The Future (PTF) is urging the Surface Transportation Board to reject the deal, warning it would consolidate power, reduce competition, and drive up costs for energy producers who depend on rail to move America’s fuel. “More competition means lower prices—period. Every American understands when…


The Media Is Still Running Cover for the Fake EV Industry Built on Handouts

October 15, 2025

Driving the news: Axios just ran a story bragging that “EV sales smashed records” in Q3. In the next sentence, reporter Ben Geman admits why: buyers rushed to cash in on the $7,500 federal handout before it expired Sept. 30. Reality check: That’s not a market win. It’s a taxpayer-funded clearance sale. Why it matters: The corporate press keeps pretending government-funded hype equals real demand. But this “EV boom” isn’t innovation, it’s inflation, bought and paid for by the working class. The spin: Geman calls it a “much-hyped rush” and somehow treats it as momentum instead of proof the industry…


Britain’s “Tight Days” Are a Warning: Net Zero Means Blackouts

October 15, 2025

The United Kingdom just admitted what common sense has been saying for years: when you blow up your power plants, don’t be surprised when the lights go out, according to a Breitbart report last week. Britain’s national grid operator is warning of “tight days” for electricity this winter, meaning they may not have enough power to meet demand. Their backup plan? Import more energy from Europe, as if cloudy, still weather won’t hit the continent at the same time. This is what happens when governments destroy reliable energy systems in pursuit of climate virtue signaling. The UK’s left-wing leaders are dynamiting coal…


Trump Administration Eyes Another $12 Billion Cut to Biden’s Green Giveaways

October 10, 2025

The Trump Administration is once again proving that America’s energy policy belongs to its people, not to the eco-elites who profit from Washington’s reckless green spending. According to new reports, the administration is preparing to cut off an additional $12 billion in taxpayer-funded support for Biden-era green energy programs. These cuts would hit electric vehicle manufacturing subsidies and other handouts that forced working Americans to bankroll an agenda they never asked for. “President Trump should take every opportunity to defund the Green New Scam and this latest potential funding cut would be a welcome addition,” said Daniel Turner, Founder and…


Congressman Nick Langworthy: September Energy Champion of the Month

October 9, 2025

Power The Future is proud to name Congressman Nick Langworthy (R-NY) our Energy Champion of the Month for September 2025. Few lawmakers fight harder for affordable, reliable American energy than Congressman Langworthy. He’s been a relentless voice against Governor Kathy Hochul’s radical green agenda, an agenda that’s driven energy prices sky-high, blocked pipelines, and punished working families. Langworthy has never been afraid to call out the hypocrisy of Albany elites who lecture about “climate action” while forcing New Yorkers to pay some of the highest utility rates in the nation. He knows that energy security is national security and that a strong grid,…


President Trump Greenlights the Ambler Road, Opening Alaska’s Mineral Future

October 8, 2025

President Donald J. Trump has once again delivered for American energy workers and Alaska’s economy. The White House has approved the long-awaited Ambler Road Project, a 211-mile access road connecting Alaska’s vast Ambler Mining District to the state’s infrastructure, unlocking one of the richest untapped mineral belts on Earth. For years, radical environmental groups and the Biden administration blocked this project with lawsuits and red tape. Now, under President Trump’s leadership, America is back to building again. The Ambler region holds enormous deposits of copper, cobalt, gold, zinc, and other critical minerals vital for defense, manufacturing, and technology. By moving…


Chris Wright Calls Out New York’s Green Energy Failure

October 2, 2025

U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright didn’t mince words this week during his visit to Long Island’s Northport Power Station. Standing in front of a 60-year-old natural gas facility that still provides reliable electricity to millions, Wright laid bare the consequences of New York’s radical green agenda: sky-high electricity bills, anemic infrastructure, and a mass exodus of jobs, according to a New York Post report. “Energy is the infrastructure of life — this enables everything we do in our lives, our personal lives, our business, our hobbies,” Wright reminded reporters. But New York’s politicians have been too busy chasing net-zero fantasies to…


The Free Ride Is Over: EV Credits Officially Expire

September 30, 2025

Well, that’s it. The era of government-sponsored joyrides is officially over. As of today, the majority of federal electric vehicle (EV) tax credits are no longer available. Meaning that American taxpayers will no longer subsidize luxury car purchases for high-income drivers. For years, politicians sold EV incentives as a way to “help the planet,” but in reality, they helped boost the bottom lines of billion-dollar automakers while sending the bill to working families who could never afford a Tesla in the first place. But not anymore. Let’s be honest: EV credits weren’t helping middle America. They were helping: Meanwhile, what did regular…


DOE to Invest $625 Million to Keep Coal Plants Up and Power Costs Down

September 29, 2025

Today, the Department of Energy announced it will direct $625 million toward ensuring critical coal plants remain online, preventing closures that would drive up energy costs and undermine grid reliability. The effort reflects the Trump Administration’s continued commitment to protecting affordable and reliable electricity for working families. Fox Business reports,  “The $625 million investment includes $350 million to modernize coal plants with reliable electric power and capacity; $175 million for coal projects that are expected to bring cheaper, more reliable energy to rural communities; $50 million to upgrade wastewater management systems to extend the lifespan of coal plants and reduce operating costs; $25…


A $2.2 Billion Monument to Green Failure

September 25, 2025

In the Mojave Desert, the Ivanpah Solar Power Facility was supposed to be the crown jewel of the “green revolution.” Instead, it has become exactly what critics warned about from the start: a multi-billion dollar boondoggle, built on hype, subsidies, and bad math. Back in 2011, the Obama administration pumped $1.6 billion in taxpayer-backed loan guarantees into Ivanpah, with Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz hailing it as proof that America was “becoming a world leader in solar energy.” Private investors like NRG Energy threw in hundreds of millions more, convinced government backing would guarantee success. According to the New York Post, Ivanpah…
