Stopped in Dallas and hopped over to Midland and spent the afternoon with George P Bush talking about oil amp gas workers, also his political workers, also his political future. Take a look when President Joe Biden hours into taking office signed an executive order killing the Exel pipeline here in Texas. They knew they were going to be in trouble, and this is Texas and Texas fights back and thats exactly what they did with the Texas Defense Task force led by land. Commissioner George P Bush were already in the courthouse, indifferent parts of the country fighting some of the wreckless policies, weve seen from the left so were excited to bring the fight back Brian, but he comes out and says Goodbye XL pipeline, and he says oh yeah, when it comes to drilling on federal land, were going to pause that how does that resonate in Texas? Well, its sends a very dangerous message to our state. The industry directly employs four hundred thousand Texans and indirectly employs over one million. We will lose one hundred and twenty thousand jobs if the

federal lease policy stays in place, the rest of this year alone, Brian. What about next year and the year after the jobs are going to multiply exponentially or just disappear? They will, unless we do something about it and thats. What were doing in Texas were going to visit with small business owners that felt the personal pain of what it means to let go of workers, weve lost, 40, 50000 jobs here locally in Midland Odessa, Brian, who were you thinking when you saw President Biden open up those books and sign those executive orders? What hit me significantly was the fact of thinking about all of the assets that I had operating in New Mexico and having the conversation of you guys are going to have to move to West Texas or youre going to have to go, find something else to do Brian, so immediately that book opens he signs a signature and they are out of a job. It was significant like that Brian. Do you think that they understand these? Are people with jobs they dont? I got laid off. The first of August was without work for

four and a half months. I was slated to go up to the key stone set to go to the XL pipeline. Yes, sir, we were hoping everything would pickup once Covid eased off and we got slammed in the gut again when Mr Biden come in and knocked out eleven thousand jobs the first day in office, its easy to say just go, find another job, but when youre the head of a household and that other job you do, pays you half as much as what youre used to thats, not quite as easy as it sounds. Brian. Your message is just let me work yeah, just let us do our job Brian. So George now im going to get a chance to see what its like working on a rig, absolutely its going to be the best training facility you will find Brian. Should we go in safety first. This is a pumping unit Brian. What are we looking for oil amp gas? Oh yeah, there will be oil amp gas mixed together coming out of this and natural gas coming out of this one. They co mingle into a flow line and go into production, Brian wow.

This is just a tiny fraction of what all goes into your typical oil field. Brian right and I found out you need workers. Absolutely we do Brian. What happened when it slows down and people get frustrated and leave the industry. They say they are never coming back and they dont Brian, but you say these are great paying jobs. Absolutely. It pays over one hundred and twenty five thousand dollars per year. Brian and you do make money- oh yes, absolutely Brian, so youve had this job for a while. When you got hit with that freeze did you sense? There was some people on the left that were almost happy about it. Absolutely they laughed at the misfortune of a red state, but the reality is that what it messaged to people in our state is we need to produce more energy Brian. You also have a border issue on top of that communities on our border. Dealing with this incredible in flux of not only unaccompanied children, but illegal immigrants that are coming across were tired of the federal government not stepping up to the plate and accepting their responsibility in this effort. Brian Matthew Mcconaughey wants to run for governor

hes thinking about it getting into politics. What advice would you give him? Maybe he needs to continue to think about it, Brian? What do you say about people who think your party is fractured theres, nothing more unified than Joe Biden and Kamala Harris after a few years of left wing progressive ideas, everyday Americans say this is enough. Brian. Does that make you want to seek another position. Ive been privileged to serve as land commissioner for the last six years, but we need to do leadership in this high state, wide executive role, Brian youre, hoping to run for im, taking a very serious look at attorney General Brian. When would you make that decision? Well right now, as I mentioned, were so focused on fixing the winter grid, pushing back the overreach working on during this legislative session, but ex present an announcement very very soon, Brian, as I mentioned before, hes, not afraid of green energy. Texas has huge wind farms. Twenty percent of their energy comes from wind. They are second in the country with solar, so they understand the balance. They are all for. The environmental thing here is the other thing they do.

You ever hear about well theres, an environmental impact whats, the environmental impact. Here it turns out their enemies. The green movement will find some type of grass or insect or horney toad to decide. They have to be preserved. So, therefore, you cant drill here and they go to court and delay and delay and delay and people lose more and more money, while pressuring the banks not to lend and invest, and they are trying to slowly crush the fuel industry. You know what happens. We just end up getting oil amp gas from another country or from Op Ec or from Russia Ainsley did that man end up getting a job Brian. He does not have a job as of Friday. He doesnt have a job but trying to jump on Board Steve. As for George P Bush, he.
