Trump : Keystone and Dakota Access Pipelines - Green Light

[NightTrain]

Not official yet, but to be green lit today.

U.S. energy production needs to be at the forefront of priorities - this will be a great move.

I expect we'll see the usual hippies howling about the End of the World in 3... 2...


President Trump plans to sign executive orders reviving the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines, which had been stalled under the Obama administration, sources tell Fox News.

The moves had been widely expected, as Trump blasted his predecessor for effectively blocking the projects amid environmental and other concerns.


While the Canada-to-Texas Keystone project was at the center of a heated debate for years until the Obama administration rejected a key permit in November 2015, the Dakota pipeline more recently became the subject of fierce protests until the Army Corps of Engineers in December blocked construction of a controversial segment.


The expected moves come as Trump makes the economy and jobs the centerpiece of his administration’s first week in office.

I have never understood this one. It isn't like we don't already have 2.4 million miles of pipeline already. (http://www.pipeline101.com/where-are-pipelines-located)

It's not enough. The oil is being transported via truck and rail, which is inherently more risky and more expensive.

Every barrel we produce is that much less clout that OPEC has - and puts our guys to work, to boot.

No.

Keystone is Canadian sourced, to be refined in U.S. refineries and then sold domestically or internationally.

North Dakota is a State along the Canadian border, one among 49 others that make up the US of A.

Yes Canada is foreign. The pipeline is foreign. Not sure who actually owns the oil. ConocoPhillips perhaps.

Keep going, little fella. Follow this through.

The Donald is really PISSING a lot of Liberal Crybabies, and Whiners off now. I HOPE they keep complaining, and refuse to accept the benefits of a President who is actually Working, and Thinking for them.

Liberals should be in contact with the IRS before April 15th, and DEMAND they must pay HIGHER TAXES, to help those other Liberals who refuse to WORK for themselves.

petey. Why does it matter to you, what company has, or uses the pipeline?

Other than to sound like your perpetual Patronizing Liberal, Mindless, Last wordism's must always apply.
If you spent as much time finding out the TRUTH, as you do trying to play GOTCHA, you might get some limited respect here. Otherwise. YOU ARE A PROVEN JERK.

FROM BELOW: "The second winner is big oil behemoth Exxon Mobil (XOM). “Another big winner over the course of time, not immediately, is Exxon because a lot of their growth, or at least prospective growth, in growing barrels is from their Kearl project which is a huge Alberta sands project. They will need Keystone in order to make Kearl work.”
