      She’s a great communicator and seems to be genuine in trying to help Americans.

      To be pedantic, as Chair of the FTC, Ms. Khan isn’t a cabinet member. The FTC is an independent agency, which exists outside of the executive branch’s departments. The heads of the departments are cabinet members. Think: DOJ, DOD, State, Agriculture, Interior, Education, Energy, Treasury, etc.

    Poor environmentalists don’t know what to do about this news!

    More expensive gas makes everything more expensive

    Cheaper gas means people burn more of it which is bad for the environment
