Badlands Media Special Coverage: 9/30/26 - Trump Unveils $200B Alaska LNG and Energy Deal

Trump gathers senators, governors, and a lineup of energy CEOs to announce one of the largest infrastructure packages of his presidency, nearly $200 billion from South Korea funding eight new nuclear plants, a massive Texas gas facility, and the long promised Alaska LNG pipeline, a project politicians have talked about for five decades. Expect genuine excitement from Alaska's delegation, some spirited jabs at a decoy Senate candidate sharing Dan Sullivan's name, and plenty of credit passed around between cabinet secretaries. The Q&A afterward goes everywhere: a wild, almost unbelievable story about a plumber who allegedly saved a hijacked flight, Iran's crumbling military, the Supreme Court's deportation ruling, a rebrand of "artificial intelligence" to "Super Intelligence," and a pointed take on a suspicious Los Angeles mayoral race. Dense on policy, loose on tangents, this one covers an enormous amount of ground even by Trump press conference standards.
