"The former president also mocked action against climate change during an interview."
"Former President Donald Trump said he wants to cut the Interior Department if he returns to the White House, and indicated “environmental agencies” more broadly are also on the chopping block.
Trump, the presumptive GOP nominee to run against President Joe Biden in November, revealed the plans in an interview with Fox News’ “Fox & Friends” that aired Sunday, when talking about wasteful government programs he’d slash.
“We’re going to do, like, Department of Interior,” he told host Rachel Campos-Duffy, without expanding on his plans for the department that oversees energy production on federal land, among other responsibilities.
“There’s so many things you can do,” he continued. “One of the things that is so bad for us is the environmental agencies. They make it impossible to do anything,” Trump said, going on to boast that he approved a liquefied natural gas export terminal in 24 hours after a company spent 14 years working on it."
