To carry out Trump's Executive Order #14196 initiative, the administration will have to partner with a handful of U.S. companies that control the "reserve accounts" sitting on trillions of dollars' worth of untapped natural resources. I've spent months digging into this – and I've identified three companies that have already been granted "emergency status" and fast-track approvals.
