About this episode
President-elect Donald Trump is preparing to resume his time in the White House with an extensive set of executive actions, including those that will target energy and the environment in major ways and seek to undo many of President Joe Biden’s moves in these areas. POLITICO’s Alex Guillén unpacks what Trump is aiming to do on Jan. 20th and what the implications will be for energy and climate. Plus, the Biden administration has issued an executive order that allows for the construction of data centers for supporting artificial intelligence on federal land — but with the requirement that they be powered by new clean energy projects.
