Similarly, Secretary of Energy Chris Wright told an energy conference in March: "The Trump administration will treat climate change for what it is, a global physical phenomenon that is a side effect of building the modern world."

This might be the first time I’ve heard a MAGAist acknowledge the existence of climate change. I’m not looking forward to the new narrative.
