U.S. Department of the Interior
U.S. federal government — reflects sitting administration's priorities
The Department of the Interior is a cabinet agency of the U.S. federal government whose press releases are official communications produced by the department itself, meaning they reflect — and advocate for — whatever administration is in power. Since January 2025, Secretary Doug Burgum has led the department under President Trump's second term, and its releases consistently promote the administration's 'American Energy Dominance' agenda. Because DOI is part of the executive branch, its press output is inherently aligned with current administration policy rather than being an independent journalistic source.
