Manage episode 425861809 series 2562330
President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump are squaring off tonight in their first debate of the 2024 election cycle, and we expect some sparring over energy policy. POLITICO’s Ben Lefebvre and Josh Siegel discuss what Trump might say and fact-check some of his most common energy claims. Plus, the Energy Department’s deputy secretary is defending the pace at which the agency is getting federal funding out the door under the bipartisan infrastructure law and Inflation Reduction Act.
