Climate and Energy in Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill – The Climate Realism Show #158
The Heartland Institute 
Donald Trump achieved a major political and policy victory on Thursday when the U.S. House of Representatives passed what he calls his “Big Beautiful Bill.” The less-creative name is the budget reconciliation bill, which presidents for years have used to implement large parts of their agenda. (That’s how we got “Obamacare.”)
The bill includes many of Trump’s economic policy promises, such as tax cuts, but also rolls back much of the “green” energy and climate policies the Biden administration imposed via the Inflation Reduction Act.
Join Heartland’s Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, H. Sterling Burnett, Jim Lakely, and special guest Steve Milloy LIVE at 1 p.m. ET for Episode #58 of The Climate Realism Show. We’ll break down the good, the bad, and the disappointing in the Big Beautiful Bill. We’ll also cover the Crazy Climate News of the Week and answer your questions in the chat.

About The Author
[UK] I enjoy my Friday evening TCR Show, but please don't waste our time on any climate 'story' the BBC reports on/makes up. A once highly regarded corporation, but clearly biased on so many subjects now.
I remember an interview a few years ago between the famous Australian Geology Professor Dr. Plimer and some young snotty, snooty, arrogant and cheeky communist English journalist from the BBC or Guardian newspaper, or some other communist – globalist rag or broadcasting station, who dared to contradict Professor Plimer about CO2 from undersea volcanoes. The little cheeky boy said "Oh! The IPCC knows how much CO2 is emitted from volcanoes and has dismissed your claims", or words to that effect. So I say, "Up your´s you little shit!"
Undersea volcanoes,who’d have thought that!
President Trump,as in so many other subjects,is dead right on wind scams!
Why is more ice good or bad?
Coastal 'FLOATING' ice will always melt seasonally, and floating ice melt DOES NOT raise water level at all. Land ice can not melt until it's temprature rises ABOVE 32° F…for a long time.
1.5 degrees in 140 yrs? The planet is supposed to be warming
The b b b didn't defeat the climate change narrative hysteria…
It isn’t their certainty in what they promote is the truth, it’s exclusively their stupidity that they’re able to be so sure of themselves. Case in point for the last hundred years it’s Manhattan will be under water, or ice, and the polar bears will go extinct.They are just like a broken record. And for the younger folks that don’t know what records are they perhaps experienced a reboot loop on the computer. Still politicians with the public largest on hand seeking only advice from alarmists who will say what is expedient and beneficial to themselves.
Steve Molloy is my favorite.
Volcanic CO2: So volcanos are producing more CO2 than previous estimates. So where are we "officially" measuring CO2? ON A VOLCANO!!
i'M WITH MALLOY: Satellite measurements of sea level is at best a statistical average of a bunch of measurements with a wide range of variance that makes them moot.
Some Republican Congressman don't want funding to end because of KICKBACKS from Lobbyist.
Bluesky=libtards, ecoterrorists, liars and grifters.
I have 1 HUGE Question regarding what's perceived as "Natural" & WHY Human Activity isn't with the paramotor of "Natural". I've always thought that in order to function inside an Environmentalist Mindset you 1st have to consider Humans as some kind of being that's foreign to the Earth like an invasive species. This is an issue that i've only heard addressed when mentioning the Overpopulation Crowd is referred to but I think it should be front & center because the whole way you see & process something is based on how its framed. In my view Humans are a part of Nature & everything Humans do is as "Natural" as an Ant Building a Mound. If Ants knew about Natural Fossil Fuels then I'm sure they'd use it & less Ant Power. So I think there needs to be emphasis put on the REALITY that Humans are Nature & making things harder on Humans is the same as making things harder on any other life form.
Bsky is qwful — but there is even more blatant on social media like Reddit — where there are downvotes. If I post a comment or link that even slightly soothes "climate crisis", I get a huge amount of downvotes 😂 It's already impossible to have a proper communication online.
NEW ZEALAND AS JUST ANNOUNCED THEY ARE ABANDONING THE NET ZERO FRAUD SET UP BY JABCINDA ARDERN AND ARE RETURNING TO RELIABLE, CHEAP GAS & OIL.
According to Professor Ian Plimer, the Antarctic ice has gained 200+ billion tonnes in two years because the sub Antarctic volcanos have been less active. Slight atmospheric warming from minus 20 degrees Celsius to a blistering minus 18 degrees Celsius does not melt any ice at all compared to the 750 degrees heat coming from the volcanos below it. Who would have guessed?
Can someone please tell our pathetic politicians here in Australia to stop their climate agenda and renewable insanity before we all suffer blackouts and exorbitant energy bills.
Why did YT demonetize Heartland?
Trump’s 2017 tax reform bill, when you added everything up, left an estimated $1.5 trillion of tax cuts unpaid.
But the Big Budget Bomb exists in a class by itself. Even a naïve analysis, one that buys into some very obvious Republican budget tricks, finds that this bill, as it exists on May 21, cuts taxes and raises spending by more than $4 trillion over 10 years — but only pays for about $1.5 trillion of that.
Once you add interest on all that new debt — and we’re paying really high interest rates on that nowadays — the Budget Bomb puts more than $3 trillion on the national credit card over the next decade.
13 million people lose health insurance.
$1.1 trillion in tax cuts for people who make $500 million or more.
%1.1 trillion in cuts from food stamps and Medicaid.
It guts tax credits for wind, solar, and EVs.
This bill increases our risk of a financial crisis.
China is loving this bill. As China increases its solar and wind, cutting its overhead, the Un ited States will stick to expensive and dangerous fossil fuels.
Gretas friends tell me you get plenty of oil money??? I didn't think so.
