We have to confess this news came suddenly out of left field. And we’re still struggling with what to make of it. Yesterday, CNX Resources CEO Nick DeIuliis, author of Precipice: The Left’s Campaign to Destroy America (in which he writes about the “leeches” of the left), stood at a podium in Washington County, PA, with PA’s head leftist leech Gov. Josh Shapiro, to announce a voluntary deal for CNX to expand drilling setbacks and several other regulatory steps not mandated for shale drillers under PA law. Is this a sellout by DeIuliis? Or is it a masterstroke in which DeIuliis has shown us how to outsmart the left and beat them at their own game? That’s the question we’re struggling with.
