Arkansas Attorney General Leslie Rutledge came flying hot right out of the gate sharing thoughts that so many across the nation have had since January 20th. After President Biden went on a signing spree of Executive Orders, there are many brows raised and breaths baited waiting to see where this country is going. The executive order killing the Keystone Pipeline, which was signed within Biden’s first hour in office, has already done quite a bit of damage by itself. That’s why 13 Attorney Generals have decided to band together and push back against the cancellation of the Keystone Pipeline.

“The cancellation of the Keystone Pipeline took away American jobs, it can take away energy independence for America, and it takes away money from American’s pocketbooks because it will cost more.” – AG Leslie Rutledge

The toll is already beginning to show it’s face as the number of unemployment rises along with the cost of fuel at the tanks. The recent winter storm that swept the nation last week may have outlined a few more issues stemming from the hit to America’s oil and gas industry. Although, thankfully Arkansas was left with far less blackouts than was had in Texas.

“If we were only relying on wind and solar, we would be in a much more detrimental position than what we were and we would have seen much more devastation because we still would be without power because, again, those wind turbines would still be frozen and the snow would still be sitting on the solar panels.” – AG Leslie Rutledge

The nation’s energy independence and stability is not the only fight on the Attorney General’s plate, though. The idea is to keep both eyes open for all federal overreach. Most recently, AG Rutledge has introduced The Girls Act; legislation that stands for gender integrity reinforcement.

“It’s unbelievable that at this time we are having to put forth such legislation and put it into law and that’s why I think moreso than ever that we cannot let political correctness override good common sense.” – AG Leslie Rutledge

Should anyone wish to join the fight against the cancellation of the Keystone Pipeline, be sure to reach out to the Arkansas Attorney General’s office. The one-on-one examples are used in court cases and testimony. Otherwise, just remember to have hope and stand strong; there are still people looking out for the working men and women.

“So please don’t sit back and think that nobody’s fighting for you – we are fighting for you at the Arkansas Attorney General’s office.” – AG Leslie Rutledge

Mike Marcil, Orange Property Management 

Mike Marcil shares information from his research and insight company involving the Bakken and surrounding areas.

Marcil opines about several different areas in energy. From the

state’s use of public money for energy, coal controlling the narrative,

weak leadership in energy and Xcel Energy’s newest report indicating

their future in North Dakota.

He also suggests North Dakota should start taking some cues from Texas and understand how powerful the state is on a global scale.

Tom Shepstone, NaturalGasNow

Shepstone gives an overview of how natural gas played a major role in the Texas storm and power grid issues.

The two run down the percentage numbers of grid production in Texas

and ask why natural gas is being demonized or vilified by the media when

it should be applauded.

Shepstone gives an update from the Marcellus Utica shale play and what some of the activity is.

The responsibility of the media during a crisis is discussed in detail by the two journalists. Questions and speculation on why Bill Gates continues to be interviewed about every issue in society is baffling when he has no expertise, only an opinion on the majority of the topics.
