Listen "Trump's energy paradox"
Episode Synopsis
The Trump administration wants energy abundance. But it just declared war on the fastest and cheapest ways to achieve it.
That's the central paradox emerging from the administration's first weeks in office, where a flood of executive orders, permit freezes, and funding delays are creating precisely the kind of uncertainty that could thwart its own energy goals.
In our first episode of Open Circuit, we sort through it all. We examine which threats are real, which ones are noise, and how to think strategically about this moment.
