doug burgum: yeah.tor angus king: thank you very much, governor, appreciate you meeting with us. gov. doug burgum: thank you, senator. sen. lee: senator hickenlooper. senator hickenlooper: i ran down the hall to get here, i didn't want to miss my chance for a second question, second round of questions. and again, thank you for your service as a governor, all the way through your career. you've shown a real inclination, both through your government service, but through your philanthropy, to engage in the community and to go to the community. i think the letters from the tribes, and what i've heard from our tribes in colorado, that you are held in very, very high esteem, i think, across this country, and i think that's going to be a powerful thing. i have one curious question. i think they're still doing it with the western governors associated, do they still meet with the secretary of the interior in december, or did they stop doing that? gov. doug burgum: there's been a tradition to meet with the secret

time for doug burgum to shine for secretary of interior, a position you once held. it will be important over next four years and returning to american energy dominance, is the governor qualified for this job? how will confirmation process go for him? >> doug burgum is governor of north dakota, he understands energy, he's very bright and innovative. he's a software engineer, he's a great pick and he understands western value. his partner is chris wright over at energy and they will work to go back to energy dominance. it will take time, you turn on valves and reestablish leases, there is a lapse in time, i'm confident doug burgum will get through and chris wright, he had a great hearing. pete hegseth and the gang look like the all-star team. they tore up the senate and they should. they are quality people. marco rubio's confirmation went well. i'm happy with the lineup, they are all star and i think they will all make it. >> carley: final polling coming in for joe biden's time in office and according to final cnn poll 61% view joe biden's presidency as a failure. whi

doug burgum. not a familiar name, i know, but you might remember him as the obscure republican presidential candidate who had to pay his way into the debates. there was a provision in the republican primary debate rules where you had to get a certain number of people to become donors to your campaign in order for you to get into the debates. doug burgum was nowhere near the sufficient number of donors that he would need to get him into the debate. so he literally paid people to donate to him. he would give you money, he would give you $20. if you turn around and gave him $1 as a donation. and apparently that was legal. but that is how doug burgum got into the republican presidential debates, which if you don't live in north dakota, that's the only thing you know him from now, trump wants him to run the department of the interior because, sure. why not? doug burgum. doug burgum his confirmation hearing was also supposed to be tomorrow, but it also now has been called off because, like with the guy

so now doug burgum can't have his confirmation hearing tomorrow either. both of them called off the day before the hearings were supposed to happen. and now here's word of another. and this one is for the trump nominee, who i think is probably the least confirmable of any of them. this is the trump nominee who i would argue might even be less confirmable than matt gaetz would have been if they had left him as the nominee nominee for attorney general. i'm speaking, of course, of trump's choice for director of national intelligence, tulsi gabbard. this is the choice when this nomination was announced, russian state tv reacted to this announcement like it was the kremlin's biggest international victory since they launched sputnik. a source at the senate intelligence committee told us last week that republicans were hoping the confirmation hearing for tulsi gabbard was going to be this friday, january 17th. so that was the date we had penciled in for tulsi gabbard. but it's not happening. amid multiple reports of yet more trouble getting the paperwork togethe

doug burgum and scott bessent appeared before their rippive committees on thursday. >> president trump energy dominant can be america's big stick. leverage for prosperity and world peace. >> i believe wall street has done great past few years and main street has suffered. it is main street's time. wall street can continue to do well, maybe not as well. it is time to have a main straight small business led recovery led by small banks, regional banks. >> madeleine: this morning homeland security nominee kristi noem head to capitol hill. plans are liking to take center stage. kristi noem will say securing h homeland is a trust that must be pursue the and never taken for granted. being safe is an american right yet americans feel less safe than they have in decades, president trump will change that. she will appear before the committee 9:00 a.m. eastern time. >> todd: we can expect that to be one of the most fiery this week. we will see. >> carley: starting fiery and ending fiery. >> todd: joe biden giving final interview as president repeating warning for the future of democracy. >> what

going to highlight a couple of things and to john's point about president trump's confidence in doug burgum. he called me a lot, the president did and even called me when doug was his opponent and said i like that doug burgum guy a lot, he's so smart and good and a big brain and he understands everything. and i said, he does, he does. he'll be very, very valuable to you in your service. and i think as a consumer, as governor burgum and first lady katherine are consumers of these incredible federal assets of ours, our great, rich properties, as recreaters, and extraction of minerals and often times doesn't get talked with governor burgum. he's not just an oil man from an oil and gas producing state. he's first and foremost a conservationist. he's from the land of roosevelt and he absolutely relentlessly carried the ball to ensure that the theodore roosevelt presidential library makes sure it gets built the at gateway to theodore roosevelt national park to become the responsible extraction of minerals and responsible extraction of federal assets in a way that both exercises great care for the

it's also an honor to stand before you today to introduce my husband, our governor, doug burgum. doug is a man of integrity, compassion and courage who cares deeply about the future of our country. his family's deeply rooted in north dakota. he comes from the hearty stock of pioneers. his life has been directly influenced by a long lineage of strong, powerful and intelligent women. his great grandmother, lynda slaughter, was one of the state's earliest pioneers. she arrived in north dakota by steamboat. coming up, the missouri river after the civil war. she was an author and a correspondent who fought for women's right to vote. lynda was the first woman in dakota territory to hold an elected office, a superintendent, a burly county schools. she beat out several male candidates at a time when she could not even vote for herself. in 1892, she earned the distinction of becoming the first female in the country to vote for a presidential candidate at a national convention. her daughter, doug's grandmother, jessamine slaughter, was the only female and the first ever class of students at

i believe that's doug burgum, maybe, walking inside the capitol right now. that's not doug burgum. i apologize. and a lot of them are not wearing coat because the truth of the matter is -- there's senate republican leader mitch mcconnell, the former senate minority leader, with his wife, elaine chao, the former secretary of labor during the trump administration. transportation, i apologize. she served labor in a previous administration. she resigned from the trump presidency on january 6th, 2021. she was upset with the insurrection. obviously, those feelings have waned. but in any case, the point i was making is it actually has not turned out to be as frigid as the forecast predicted. jeff zeleny is there at the rotunda. jeff, tell us what you're seeing. >> reporter: jake, we can see members of the cabinet walking in as you were saying. right behind them, elon musk also walking in and waiting at the law library door here. on the east front of the capitol. and we saw marco rubio, of course, the former senator from florida. he's likely to be the first cabinet nominee to be the secret

i mentioned doug burgum, he's the former governor of north dakota, self-made tech millionaire as wellnated him to be secretary of the interior. burgum, not a controversial choice, but controversy still not scheduled at all. is tulsi gabbard to run intelligence and robert kennedy to run health and human services. senators on both sides have concern neither is on the calendar so far. new development in the fight to save tiktok. some of the very same people who wanted to ban tiktok are trying to save it, three senior white house officials say president biden is working to extend the pass. the ban passed sunday into donald trump's term, and trump has promised to save tiktok. here's trump's pick for national security adviser. speaking on fox news. that buys president trump time to keep tiktok going. it's been a great platform for him and his campaign to get his america first message out, but at the same time, he wants to protect their data. you know, conservatives don't want the fbi, and they certainly don't want the chinese communists getting their passwords, getting their data, and being

you've had conversations, i assume, with your nominated successor, doug burgum. haaland: so i haven't actually had any conversations with the incoming secretary, although i do want to point out that the mission of the department of the interior does not change. it's the same mission throughout history that we are -- that we were dedicated to. so we can hope that the 65,000 career staff who are who remain at the department, even though i'm leaving, will move so many of the issues that we found important enough to work on for. -- forward. amna: the mission may not change, but i think it's fair to say it is being redefined with the way the incoming administration has laid it out. doug burgum is said to be taking on a much more expansive role, much more energy focused as well. he's going to have a seat on the national security council. how concerned are you that a lot of the work you've done on climate, on preservation of public lands, that that could be undone? haaland: so there is a lot that can never be undone. president biden's investing in america agenda that es

other hearings for trump's nominees for the interior department and veterans affairs doug burgum and collins perspectively have been postponed. burgum's is delayed because of a paperwork issue with the office of government ethics and collins is delayed because his background check with the fbi hasn't been completed yet. lawrence, steve, ainsley, and brian. >> steve: maddie, it sounds like republicans and trump aides both believe that if nothing new comes out during the confirmation hearings, he will be confirmed, right? >> yeah, they are certainly signaling some confidence surrounding hegseth's nomination. they are also putting a lot of pressure, republicans, to get trump's nominees approved quickly so that they can get started on the work they say they want and need to do for the american people. now, remember, republicans have a 53 to 47 majority in the senate hegseth is afford to lose three votes in the senate. >> brian: thanks so much, maddy, no one has come out on the republican side and said i'm not going to vote for him. as we mentioned yesterday pete had over 40 meetings befo

he has interior secretary in doug burgum who i know he has talked to and one of the brightest peoplethe country. is he going to say tell me exactly whereby the water would work going into the pacific ocean absolutely true. in front of gavin newsom, i hope president trump says i told this guy to rake the forest. i told him to reroute the water. you made it worse they need to know that this governor has totally let them down not just the mayor. >> he said is he going to get rid of sanctuary cities how are you going to do that cut off the money. >> basically the only way can you do it. those residents don't want to be a sanctuary city. gavin newsom wants it and these democratic leaders. he also, when we interviewed franklin graham on our show the other day at the inauguration. he said -- i said how is everything going in north carolina? he said ainsley they still need a lot of help. is he with samaritan's purse. i'm sure -- remember it was after the win on or about it was in october when after the hurricanes hit he went with franklin graham in atlanta in the d.b.a. area. i'm sure they a

his pick for interior secretary doug burgum facing questions from a senate panel today as he looks togy independence to lower prices for consumers. live in washington he has the latest for us. >> interior secretary doug burgum fielded questions today. a major part of that job is producing energy on public land. he says the bear gets a place confidence in the trump administration to achieve energy dominance and maintains that with the government restricts energy production in the united states it does not reduce the bag it shifts production to countries like russia, venezuela, at the rod. he warned the country needs the energy especially given the demands of artificial intelligence. >> electricity is that the grid electricity the grid is completely unstable at this point. we could be months away from skyrocketing prices for americans. of course as we talked about in the ai arms race we need electricity for manufacturing. >> he also testified he is mindful about conservation. many democrats say they are worried about the trump administration abandoning biden's clean energy policies. >>

the greatest cabinet in history, if we have cabinet secretaries like an interior secretary like doug burgume brooke rollins these kinds of things would not happen because the federal government would be controlling the forest in using controlled burns as they talk about my book but most importantly the key thing individual voters in california have to understand they have to draw a line in the sand into enough is enough. maria: is a great point will be watching how this plays out. i remember our conversation you were right let's talk about the confirmation hearings and what gets done for president trump's cabinet picks, they begin tomorrow schedule for tomorrow veterans affairs doug collins defense secretary nobody pete hegseth, his hearing will begin tomorrow, interior secretary nominee doug burgum i spoke with roger marshall about this yesterday, here's what he's expecting. >> he met with president trump this week along with your colleagues did you have a chance to speak with your colleagues you believe you have the bill in the senate to confirm all of his nominees. >> after count my chic

we're going to -- doug burgum wants to produce, i don't know, 15, 16 million barrels a day.0 or 55, that'll have a crippling effect on russia. i don't think russia would be in the war business because there wouldn't be any money because their product if's not going to be yielding as much. that's essentially what i think mr. trump is saying. >> that is what he's saying. and we need to make sure that the countries in europe that would be buying from us or from if opec know that this is going to be a long lasting source of cleaner oil and gas. is so they get two things. they get clearance oil and gas as opposed to the dirty russian oil and gas, and they're not if paying russia for a product that then is going to use with -- it's going to use to fund the war in ukraine. so the president's absolutely right. there are only 11 rigs operating in the powder river i basin in wyoming this week, harry. we should is have two or three times that. and so should texas and north dakota. i'm so glad doug burgum has really highlighted this and is going to take the bull by the horns. larry: you

i'm so glad doug burgum has really highlighted this and is going the take the bull by the horns.t that we need to be -- i mean, joe biden stopped the exporting of hng, and he wouldn't let you build any new, you know, installations or anything which, to me, was one of the stupidest things. he did many dumb things. that was one of the dumbest things he ever did. if we produce an -- and export lng, clean burning fuel, to okay? even the green energy crowd in europe acknowledges it's clean burning. we start selling them tons and tons of hng -- lng, liquid natural gas, that puts russia off the business also. it's another blow. >> it absolutely is. and then it create -- it absolutely does. and it creates jobs and revenue in the united states. so it's building us up while thwarting russia's economy and improving air quality in the process. larry: right. >> it's a win-win-win, larry. the president's absolutely right on this one. larry: yeah. terrific stuff. senator lummis, i think you're win-win-win. we appreciate your time of9 great to see you, ma'am. >> thanks, larry. larry: you bet. al

director of global engagement, and republican strategist lance trover, who was press secretary for doug burgum'sial candidacy. the potential meeting between president trump and prime minister netanyahu, do you think that would be likely to happen next week? >> i don't know, but i think it would be issued a statement from the trump administration and to the world to have netanyahu the first real visit from a world leader. the trump administration is operating from a position of strength, and you see that there's a lot of trust and confidence built between these two. they've known each other for a long time. there might have been differences along the way. with these two have trust. is israel going to be able to take more risks and probably compromise a bit more because they have faith in the trump administration and the relationship that those two gentlemen have that i think will help move the ball down the field. caitriona: ok. and, brent, when we hear comments appealing to egypt and georgia, clear life i think was the phase he used, does that show fundamental misunderstanding, or does he want t
