He ran against Trump for the Republican presidential nomination before quitting and becoming a loyal Trump supporter, appearing at fundraisers and advocating for Trump on television.<\/p>\n<p>At the gala, which featured tech billionaire Elon Musk, actor Sylvester Stallone and members of his incoming administration, Trump praised his latest cabinet picks and made some of his longest remarks since his presidential election victory speech.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Nobody knew we were going to win it the way we won it,&#8221; Trump said.<\/p>\n<p>He teased Musk about his ongoing post-election stay at Mar-a-Lago.

And I like having him here,&#8221; said Trump.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the event, Musk mounted the stage.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The public has given us a mandate that could not be more clear.

Interior leadership under Trump could scrap Biden&#8217;s five-year offshore drilling plan, which had a historically low number of auctions scheduled, and step up acreage offered at Congressionally-mandated onshore sales.<\/p>\n<p>Drilling activity on federal lands and waters accounts for about a quarter of U.S. oil production and 12% of gas production.<\/p>\n<p>The number of drilling permits approved on federal lands fell 16% between fiscal 2020, the last year of Trump&#8217;s first administration, and fiscal 2023, according to data from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management.
