Surprise: The Media Wanted You to Believe Rick Perry Had No Clue What An Energy Secretary Does

If you had read The New York Times Wednesday night, you would be terrified to learn that the man nominated to be our next energy secretary had no clue what his job will entail. Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry, the editors claimed, apparently did not know his job would include a safeguarding of America's nuclear arsenal. Instead, he was under the impression he'd be acting as a sort of ambassador on behalf of the oil and gas industry. The editors quote an energy lobbyist who was hired to the Trump team to try and prove their point.
