Nov 8, 2024, 06:20 PM
Former President Donald Trump is considering appointing Doug Burgum, the billionaire Governor of North Dakota and former Republican presidential candidate, as a new "energy tsar" to slash environmental regulations and boost fossil fuel output in the United States, according to reports from the Financial Times and other sources.
