The Tudor Dixon Podcast: Lee Zeldin on Energy Costs, EPA Deregulation & America’s AI Race

EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin joins Tudor Dixon to discuss the Trump administration’s push to expand American energy production, lower costs, roll back Biden-era regulations, and protect U.S. manufacturing. Zeldin breaks down his visit to Michigan, the future of the Line 5 pipeline, the EPA’s repeal of Biden-era power plant regulations, and why the administration believes environmental protection and economic growth can go hand in hand. Tudor and Zeldin also tackle the explosive growth of AI data centers and the concerns surrounding electricity demand, water use, infrastructure, and rising utility bills. Zeldin explains President Trump’s ratepayer protection pledge and argues that America must responsibly expand data center capacity if it wants to compete with China and win the global artificial intelligence race. From Michigan manufacturing and reliable energy to pipelines, nuclear power, data centers, and the future of American AI infrastructure, this conversation examines the policies shaping America’s energy and economic future.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
