Liberty Energy

Denver, CO 80202
Dear Chris,
Congratulations on your election to head the United States Department of Energy. Genuinely the honor of a life time, and from where I sit, an admirable and well-deserved gesture.
We have not fulfilled, however I've enjoyed your amazing profession from a range, from MIT to establishing tech-heavy Pinnacle Technologies and after that to Liberty Energy, to name a few. Your increase has actually been entirely remarkable, a business owner's business owner. Fitting too– your choice– with Trump leaning more on business owners than political leaders this time around. That's great. Great too was your early contribution to the Trump project. I've contributed and chose him too, 3 times now. Fantastic that can be stated aloud this time around. Years back, when I composed of a partiality for Trump amongst my oilfield brethren, I was assaulted; not digitally, however face to face. Such was the knowledge. Such were the times.
You'll survive an unsightly verification, Chris, assisted partially by the cumulative fatigue of takedown efforts on Pete, Bobby, Tulsi and Kash. Take the name calling with a grain of salt. It's their method, the method they talk. Unusually they presume their certified electorate delights in the awful strategies. We do not. We ‘d rather see a sincere exchange however I question that's what we'll get.
Later on, after all the theater, after your close verification, after Day One, that's when it'll all turn to shit. The brazen intruder, the environment infidel is how you'll be seen– pertaining to reverse what the flat-footed Jennifer Grandholm upheld with her fiat of electrical automobile requireds and battery production in a world absolutely nothing more than “huge shovel changing huge oil” (author Daniel Yergin's words, not my own). Her push of ideology over pragmatism, of subterfuge displacing reality, might simply well stay the established pre-disposition of your quickly to be staff members, Chris. Your department is the high change of environment modification, and your personnel, much of them the disciples. What a vibrant reach, such a plain modification in frame of mind, from Ganholm to you. Where it's you, the nonrenewable fuel source guy who has in fact produced the most meaningfully favorable modification to the environment, not with empty gestures like ESG, demonstration and virtue signaling, or the blaze of billions of dollars in green aids, however with really reducing climatic CO2 by changing coal with an abundance of gas. You'll be assaulted for that, internal and in journalism. You'll be the dazzling Harry Markopolis who called out Bernie Madoff's Ponzi plan,
