Exclusive: Rick Perry Weighs in on Texas’ Future – The Untold Conversation You Can’t Miss

The Unfiltered Take From Texas’ Longest-Serving Governor

In a rare, no-holds-barred interview, former Texas Governor Rick Perry pulls back the curtain on the state’s most pressing issues—energy dominance, border security, and the looming 2024 election. His insights, shaped by 14 years in the governor’s mansion, reveal what’s really at stake for the Lone Star State.

Perry’s Bold Predictions for Texas

• Energy Independence: "Texas will lead America’s energy revolution—or no one will," Perry declares, doubling down on fossil fuels and emerging tech like hydrogen.
• Border Showdowns: He defends Operation Lone Star but warns, "Drones alone won’t stop cartels. We need boots, tech, and political will."
• 2024 Wild Cards: Hinting at GOP fractures, Perry says, "The party that embraces both business and populism wins Texas. The other? History."

Behind the Scenes: Perry vs. Washington

Remember the infamous "oops" moment? Perry laughs it off but turns serious: "D.C. still doesn’t get Texas. We’re not just oil and cattle—we’re semiconductors, space, and the future." He points to Tesla’s Austin HQ and SpaceX’s Starbase as proof.

2. Education Wars: Why Perry now calls school vouchers "the civil rights issue of our time."
3. Nuclear Option: His surprising stance on small modular reactors replacing coal plants.

What Do You Think?

• Is Rick Perry right—should Texas go all-in on fossil fuels and green tech simultaneously?
• Does Operation Lone Star work, or is it political theater?
• Are school vouchers a lifeline for parents or a death knell for public education?
• Controversial: Should Texas secede if the 2024 election doesn’t go its way?
