Trump to host ‘Clean Beautiful Coal’ event, calls it America’s most reliable energy
Is this competence or optics?
President Donald Trump is hosting an event at the White House Wednesday to tout how "Clean Beautiful Coal," he says, is America’s most reliable and affordable energy source.
The president will be joined by Energy Secretary Chris Wright, Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin and Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum for Wednesday’s event, which is set to begin at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time in the White House’s East Room.
The White House told Fox News Digital Tuesday that a number of governors and members of Congress were also invited to attend the event.
"Beautiful, clean coal is critical to ensuring American families and businesses have the energy they need, while simultaneously driving down electricity costs across the country," White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers told Fox News Digital. "President Trump’s commonsense approach is unleashing America’s most reliable and affordable energy source, saving thousands of good-paying jobs, and turning the page on Joe Biden’s energy crisis."

That order directs Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to enter into power purchasing agreements with coal-fired power plants to ensure that the Department of War has reliable power to strengthen the U.S. grid.
Also during the event, the president will announce that the Department of Energy will award funds to five coal plants to recommission and upgrade facilities in West Virginia, Ohio, North Carolina and Kentucky.
A White House official told Fox News Digital that will be the first of "many more announcements" related to awarding funds to coal plants across the nation.

"Since the President has returned to office his relentless support for the coal industry has been felt," a White House official told Fox News Digital. "Coal production is up, new mines have been (opened), existing mines are being expanded, coal plants are continuing to run, and NEDC is working with a few companies to help build new coal generation units — which hasn’t happened since …
