There was a minor breach of security at the @PeteButtigieg event in Mason City this evening.
I finally saw the movie today and they left out a very important part! Watch this for the end of the story.
In 1954, the Atomic Energy Commission revoked Dr. Oppenheimer’s security clearance through a flawed process that violated their own regulations.
As successor to the AEC, it was @ENERGY'S responsibility to correct the record.

Big words can be intimidating, I understand. All the Governor needs to know is that $2 BILLION and thousands of good-paying jobs are coming to Nevada thanks to @POTUS. 🇺🇸
Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo just came to the podium at an event announcing a massive $2B loan for battery recycling.
Following @ENERGY @SecGranholm, he praised the “science lesson” she gave and asked her “did you actually understand this science or did you just memorize that?”
6 years ago this evening, @BarackObama delivered his farewell address. His closing lines still motivate me to go to work every day.
It was an INSANE week at @ENERGY but it’s not hard to stay motivated doing work like this. I’m so proud to work for @SecGranholm @POTUS and to finish this year strong.

It's hard to fit into a tweet the joy I felt bearing witness to the naturalization of 50 of America's newest citizens this month. As a naturalized citizen myself—getting to serve my country as Secretary of @ENERGY—I know the power and beauty of this day. Welcome home. 🇺🇸

I believe the term for this might be "BFD."
While many details have not been disclosed, the measure would invest $369 billion into energy and climate change programs, with the goal of reducing carbon emissions by 40% by 2030. cnn.com/2022/07/27/politics/…

We're heading into summer driving season, and I know we're all feeling the pain at the pump. So, let's take a minute to talk about the reasons why, what we're doing to get gas prices down, and what we can do to stop this from happening in the future.

I generally believe that better is good. This is not good enough.

Faith communities work together to celebrate, to heal, and to care for each other and our planet. Honored to visit Rev. Dr. Earl and church leaders at @FloridaAvenueBC to see how they've saved ~$60,000 on electricity by going solar ☀️ They've since helped many others do the same

.@DmytroKuleba gave me this beautiful scarf at the Crimea Platform Summit in Ukraine last year. Tonight, it's with me at @POTUS' #SOTU address. The U.S.🇺🇸stands in solidarity with Ukraine🇺🇦, its democratically elected government, & its incredibly strong people. #StandWithUkraine
Makes sense. Why would he need to control Ukraine when he was busy controlling the US?
