The Public Record
U.S. Secretary of the Interior in the Trump administration; formerly Governor of North Dakota (2016–2024).
I will take all the appropriate steps to assure North Dakotans that I’m fully focused on serving them with integrity and transparency.
It takes safe, healthy cities with vibrant, walkable main streets and downtowns to attract and retain a skilled work force.
The issue here is to make sure that I have no conflict of interest relative to many state programs and decisions.
President Trump has got not only the record of having served as president and accomplishing, you know, peace in the world and prosperity at home, but he's also got policies right now that make a ton of sense.
I believe this belongs back with the states, and that's where it should stay.
President Trump, after his strong debate performance on Thursday, where he was going in the polls before that, what this is doing for his fundraising, the strong performance he has, he's got so many good choices that he can pick for this…
I am opposed to a federal abortion ban. I'm aligned with President Trump on that.
We are at a greater national security risk today than we were on Thursday because the commander in chief showed that he's not capable of serving.
What undermines the faith in democracy, and we've seen in the polls, people trust President Trump more than Biden on democracy right now.
The idea that this is a threat to democracy, as a governor in North Dakota today, I've been living under what I call the Biden dictatorship because of all the rules and regulations.

I wish every American could see President Trump the way we've seen in the last six months. He's genuinely exceedingly funny, but as you know, Jesse, the best comics are really smart people, highly intelligent and highly perceptive and they…
Well, I think what's sad for America is the whole weaponization of the system and what we're going to see more of this.
In the world where I came from, business, you know, this would have been a non-material classification error. At best, it might have been tried as a misdemeanor.
Americans care more about their grocery bills than what's happening in that courtroom behind us.
When you've got a judge that donated to Joe Biden, when you've got prosecutors that supported Joe Biden, when you've got the judge's family members that are benefiting financially, as Democrat operatives.
Working with President Trump as a governor was like having a beautiful breeze at your back.
We're running to improve every American life. We're running to bring out the best of America. And we're going to do that by focusing on economy, energy, and national security. And these are things that matter to every American.
