President Donald Trump ordered the creation of a White House council focused on steering the US toward “energy dominance,” with the promise of action as soon as next week.
“We have more energy than any other country, and now we are unleashing it,” Trump said Friday in the Oval Office as he signed an executive order commissioning the panel. “I call it liquid gold under our feet — and we’re going to utilize it.”
