..... as liason between the envirowackos and the business community . I have to say I approve of this move .

1. He is from Louisiana ;an energy state .

2, He gets his campaign funded by the energy companies . He has received some $341 K in contributions from the oil and gas industry so he will know where his bread is buttered .

3. Madam Mim is practically begging her caucus to NOT accept positions in Quid's government. This will mean another special election to find a replacement .


Richmond delivers for the energy industry too. He repeatedly breaks ranks with the Dems on energy ,environmental votes time after time . He has voted to increase energy exports ;and to build pipelines . Well done Quid !!

To put the cherry on top ;Quid is reportedly considering making an appointment of Ernest Moniz; the emperor's former energy Sec ,to a climate envoy position whatever that means . Since he left government he has deepened his ties to the oil and gas industries .
Yeah he negotiated the Iran nuclear deal so that is a black mark .Still he is a fracking advocate .....a major plus in my book . Moniz has had several lucrative relationships with fossil fuel companies during his career, including as an adviser to BP. He advocates the 'all of the above 'approach to energy which I fully support .

Don't be surprised if the Iran Deal gets put back in play. I see a lot of de escalation of global tensions with this administration whenever they get the chance.
