The Senate just confirmed former New York Congressman Lee Zeldin as the new head of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), a move that signals a major shift away from the radical green agenda that’s had a stranglehold on the White House for years, as reported by The Gateway Pundit.
While the media was busy amplifying Senate Democrats’ latest meltdown at the RFK Jr. hearing, a real power move was happening. Zeldin, a proud MAGA ally, is stepping in to clean up the bureaucratic mess at the EPA.
✅ CONFIRMED! Thank You to the 56 Senators for your vote and confidence.
Grateful to President @realDonaldTrump for having the faith in me to be part of his Cabinet as @EPA Administrator.
Make America Great Again!🇺🇸

Zeldin’s confirmation passed with a 56-42 vote, including the surprising support of three Democrats—Mark Kelly (Ariz.), John Fetterman (Pa.), and Ruben Gallego (Ariz.)—who broke from their party’s usual climate alarmism to back the Trump pick.
While left-wing activists clutched their pearls, Zeldin’s appointment marks the end of the unhinged green movement’s dominance in Washington.
For years, the Biden administration allowed radical climate ideologues to dictate policy, crippling American energy independence and throwing working-class Americans under the bus.
But those days are over. Zeldin is here to bring balance back to the EPA—not as another yes-man to the climate cult, but as someone who values American industry, energy, and jobs over doomsday hysteria.
During his confirmation hearing, Senate Democrats tried—and failed—to corner Zeldin on climate change, clearly rattled that he doesn’t subscribe to their apocalyptic narratives.
Their main gripe? He’s aligned with President Trump, who famously dismissed the left’s climate fearmongering as a hoax.
Zeldin, however, is no stranger to standing his ground. A former congressman best known for his leadership on foreign policy and national security, he’s never been afraid to take on the left’s dishonest narratives—as evidenced by his fierce defense of Trump during the 2019 impeachment sham.
Zeldin’s appointment proves that Trump’s team is taking shape with fighters, not bureaucrats. With Zeldin at the EPA’s helm, expect a return to common-sense policies that prioritize energy independence, job creation, and putting American workers first—not bending the knee to climate extremists.
