About this episode
In this episode of the Energy News Beat Daily Standup, the hosts, Stuart Turley and Michael Tanner cover a range of hot topics from the significant impact of oil tariffs on U.S. refiners to USAID's controversial attempt to block a DOGE audit, linking it to broader governmental and geopolitical issues. They explore Greenland’s untapped energy and mineral potential, debate the opaque management of $200 billion in U.S. aid to Ukraine, and highlight Shell’s anticipated midyear LNG Canada launch. Alongside market updates on oil, natural gas, and major earnings reports from Chevron and ExxonMobil, the discussion also raises constitutional concerns regarding unelected bureaucrats and the shifting power dynamics in U.S. energy policy.
