DHS Shutdown Puts High-Profile Report on FEMA in Limbo The shutdown of the US Department of Homeland Security has thrust into limbo a long-awaited report on how to revamp the nation’s top disaster agency, according to one of the report authors.

Every delay leaves communities more exposed, slower to respond, and less prepared for the next climate crisis.

E.P.A. Moves to Weaken Limits on a Cancer-Causing Gas

Trump’s EPA wants weaker limits on a gas tied to higher cancer risk in surrounding neighborhoods. Families don’t get a choice—they live there, their kids breathe it, and they face the consequences. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/13/climate/epa-ethylene-oxide-cancer.html

Gas is just the start: What else the Iran war could soon cost you | CNN Business Ever since the US and Israel struck Iran, the jump in oil and gas prices has become a major focus for markets and consumers alike. But that’s only the top of a long list of goods that stand to get mor...

Trump’s war in Iran isn’t just about oil and gas.

Every shipment, every grocery aisle, every small business feels it—fuel surcharges, rising prices, and higher bills are hitting households right NOW.

Trump is the biggest reason our costs keep going up. Period.

Trump promised lower costs. Instead, his war with Iran is pushing gas prices higher—and when fuel costs rise, so do the prices of groceries, deliveries, utilities, and everyday essentials families rely on.

Trump’s war with Iran is sending oil and gas prices soaring—fueling inflation and making it even harder for us to meet rising costs of everything.

“From everything that I've heard, it's still a giant sh*t show up there,” a source familiar with FEMA's delays said of DHS's front office—at a time when climate disasters are only getting worse.

Trump dismisses soaring gas prices as 'a little glitch' of Iran war, but potential political costs loom President Trump is dismissing skyrocketing gas prices as Americans start to feel the economic ripple effects of his war with Iran.

Trump starts a war, oil jumps past $100, gas prices spike—and he calls it “a little glitch.” Meanwhile, he does nothing to improve Americans’ lives at home.

Oil prices soar past $100 a barrel as war escalates in Iran | CNN Business The price of oil kept climbing Monday, having surged past $100 per barrel Sunday, the first time it crossed that mark since Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine.

Trump launches a war → oil prices surge, gas prices spike. He’s calling it “a very small price to pay.”

Meanwhile, Americans are fighting rapidly rising costs on utilities, healthcare, and more. So much for “America First.”

Trump promised to lower costs. Instead, he’s created an affordability crisis with energy costs skyrocketing.

Exclusive: Trump on rising gas prices during Iran operation: 'If they rise, they rise' President Donald Trump said on Thursday he was not concerned about rising U.S. gas prices driven by the widening Iran conflict, telling Reuters ​in an exclusive interview that the U.S. military operat...

He has “no concern” about the pain at the pump. Families are paying the price while Trump shrugs off the affordability crisis HE created.

Trying to meet the surge in power demand with coal and gas will just mean higher prices and more pollution. The answer is clear: more clean energy now. https://www.canarymedia.com/articles/data-centers/data-center-politics-midterm-elections

Kristi Noem is out, but the damage is done.

Families are still waiting for help. Congress must fund FEMA and remove the red tape to relief aid.

Kristi Noem all but killed FEMA. Will her departure save it? Embattled Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem froze FEMA spending and slashed staff. It may well have been illegal.

Removing Noem is only meaningful if it leads to rebuilding a functional FEMA that can actually respond when disasters hit.

Tech companies signed a nonbinding pledge to Trump that they’d power their own AI data centers. Too bad he’s blocking the fastest, cheapest way to add power capacity: clean energy. So rates will keep rising anyway. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/03/04/trump-data-centers-energy-costs/

A disastrous tenure ends: under Kristi Noem, DHS reflected a flagrant disregard for human life and a pattern of failures that undermined the agency’s core mission of keeping Americans safe.
