President Trump will deliver remarks on energy tonight at the Port of Corpus Christi, Texas, ahead of the March 3 Primary Elections next week.
Trump has not yet made an official endorsement in the three-way GOP US Senate primary between Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, RINO Senator John Cornyn, and US Rep. Wesley Hunt. Still, Cornyn was invited to join the President to travel on Air Force One, per the White House’s guest list. Senator Ted Cruz, Rep. Lance Gooden, Rep. Michael Cloud, President of the National Border Patrol Council Paul Perez, and actor Dennis Quaid were also on the flight to Texas.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Ken Paxton attended Trump’s State of the Union speech on Tuesday as a guest of Rep. Troy Nehls (R-TX), who argued that Trump’s silence in the race is an endorsement of Paxton to replace Cornyn. “When you don’t endorse a 24-year incumbent, what does that say to you?” he said to reporters.

The White House released a statement on Friday, highlighting Trump’s American energy agenda in Texas, where gas prices, home prices, and rent prices are down, and hundreds of billions of dollars are being invested in Texas manufacturing.
“Today, he returns to a state that is thriving under Republican leadership — powered by American energy dominance, bold tax relief, secure borders, and massive private sector investments,” the statement read.
“Under President Trump, Texas families are seeing real results in lower costs, higher wages, safer streets, and more jobs — with much more to come as the Trump Administration works tirelessly to repair the damage of the Biden era.”
Prior to speaking, the President is receiving an “Energy Briefing,” per the White House.
This comes after Energy Secretary Chris Wright approved an expansion of 12% for Cheniere Energy’s Corpus Christi liquefied natural gas (LNG) Terminal to export more LNG on Thursday.
The President is scheduled to begin speaking at 3:35 pm ET.
