Trump’s Energy Secretary Promises to "Fix" Biden's Climate Assessments: “We’re Adding Sunlight and Common Sense”

August 9, 2025 | Washington, D.C.

In a bold and completely predictable move, President Trump’s Secretary of Energy, former Texas oil lobbyist Buck “Crude” McGraw, announced that the Department of Energy will be “refreshing, realigning, and liberating” climate change reports produced under the Biden administration.

“We took a long, hard look at Biden’s so-called ‘National Climate Assessment,’ and frankly, it was depressing, full of doom and gloom, and totally unfair to fossil fuels,” McGraw told reporters while standing in front of a gas pump podium flanked by two shirtless men grilling burgers on a coal-powered BBQ. “Under Trump, we believe in optimism — and drilling.”

The new assessment, titled “America: Hot, Free, and Thriving”, will include the following updates:

  • Rising sea levels rebranded as "coastal property expansion opportunities"

  • More frequent wildfires reframed as "natural forest exfoliation events"

  • Record heat waves now considered "patriotic warmth surges"

  • Carbon emissions to be listed under “Freedom Particles”

“We’re done with the scare tactics,” McGraw continued. “The previous administration made it sound like we were all gonna melt. But under President Trump’s leadership, we’re embracing the heat — literally. He said to me, and I quote, ‘Global warming sounds like a spa day, Buck. People pay good money for this.’”

Asked about scientific consensus, McGraw gestured to a graph showing a steady increase in American grill sales over the past decade. “Science? You want science? That chart right there proves Americans love warm weather.”

Environmental groups were quick to condemn the move, calling it a dangerous rejection of reality. In response, Trump tweeted (via his assistant’s burner phone, since he’s still banned from most platforms):

"The climate is doing GREAT, better than ever! It’s sunny, we have RECORD heat, and plants LOVE carbon dioxide — they told me personally. Biden’s ‘climate crisis’ is a hoax by Big Umbrella! #SunshineWins 🌞🇺🇸”

The White House also announced a plan to replace the term “greenhouse gases” with the more comforting “Freedom Vapors,” and will be distributing free trucker hats that read “MAKE CLIMATE WARM AGAIN” at gas stations nationwide.

When asked whether the administration believes humans are contributing to climate change, McGraw chuckled.

“Of course not,” he said. “If God didn’t want us to frack the Earth, He wouldn’t have hidden oil in it like a delicious molten Easter egg.”

The revised report is expected to be released in October, just in time for what the Energy Department is now calling “Fall Fire Fest: A Celebration of Spontaneous Combustion.” All are welcome — especially if they bring coal.

Trump Says Ukraine War Caused by Stolen 2020 Election; Ends Conflict Instantly with Confidence

At a joint press conference this week with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy , U.S. President Donald Trump unveiled a sweeping new theory of international relations, asserting that the Russian invasion of Ukraine would never have occurred if the 2020 U.S. presidential election had not been “stolen from him personally.” “This war,” Trump said, gesturing broadly toward Eastern Europe, “is really about me. Everybody knows it. If I were president, this would not have happened. Putin would have been too scared. Tremendously scared.” Standing beside him, Zelensky maintained a diplomatic expression usually reserved for situations involving translation errors or mild food poisoning. Trump continued, explaining that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was not the result of decades of post-Cold War tension, NATO expansion debates, or Russian imperial ambition, but rather a direct consequence of Trump not being in the White House at the time. “Putin respects strength,” Trump said. “And by streng...

Trump’s Prime-Time Address Assures Americans the Economy Is Perfect—Suggests They’re Just Too Stupid to Notice

In an unexpected return to prime-time television, President Donald J. Trump delivered a 28-minute national address Wednesday night designed, according to his staff, to “clear up confusion about the economy.” The resulting speech instead raised questions about whether he had accidentally wandered onto the soundstage during a pharmaceutical infomercial. “Ladies and gentlemen, the American economy is the strongest, the bigliest, the most incredible it has ever been,” Trump announced, gripping the lectern as if it had personally wronged him. “If you can’t see that, well… maybe you’re just not very smart. Not everyone can be smart. I’m very smart. But most of you, frankly? Not so much.” Economic experts, who had spent the previous week offering cautious optimism mixed with concern about rising costs, were surprised to learn that the entire issue was simply a matter of insufficient national intelligence. “Normally we talk about inflation, interest rates, employment trends,” said economist Da...

Trump Unveils Bold New Healthcare Vision: Trumpcare, Which Is Totally Different From Obamacare Except for the Parts That Are the Same

In a dazzling Rose Garden announcement complete with golden bunting, a fog machine, and a choir humming “Hail to the Chief” in a minor key, President Donald J. Trump unveiled what he called “the most spectacular, most terrific, most everybody-is-saying-so healthcare plan in American history.” He dubbed it Trumpcare™ —a revolutionary system in which the federal government will give money directly to people so that they can better afford their own healthcare. “Folks, it’s simple,” Trump proclaimed, flanked by several cardboard cutouts of himself in a lab coat. “Under Trumpcare, instead of the government being involved—terrible idea, horrible—we’re going to give people money so they can pay for their healthcare. Total freedom. The best freedom.” The audience applauded, though several appeared to be staffers who had been instructed to clap every time Trump paused to breathe.
