The elite liberal takeover. Sorry, all negative. Rising gas prices and unemployment. Petty revenge?
---Biden Order Blocks Keystone XL Pipeline
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said the pipeline was a key priority for him. The province of Alberta, which is an investor in the project, has said it will work with the company to pursue legal remedies.----

Keystone has no influence on gas prices, but plenty of influence on the lands it was going through and intended to go through.
Using a worst possible scenario to block progress. Less supply equals higher prices, what don't you understand? Look at your gas pump prices now. Mentioned to me by a driver for a living. Yes some obscure Indian tribe is ticked off about a two hundred year old treaty. Liberal elites to the rescue. Oil seepage, LOL.
The existence or lack thereof of that pipeline has zero impact on supply, only on transportation method.
What don't you understand?
The treaties are LAW.
What don't you understand?
The United States has been screwing natives for the entirety of its existence and that needs to change.
What don't you understand?
It's not seepage, asshole.

November 16, 2017: Keystone pipeline leaks 407,000 gallons on farmland near Amherst, South Dakota. Spill was originally underreported as 210,000 gallons, and was attributed to “the installation of a weight upon its construction in 2008” that is “used to keep pipelines in place and reduce the risk of damage to the line if water levels rise,” but instead “caused mechanical damage to the company’s corrosion-resistant coating, leading to the rupture.”
Those are the two biggest,
so far.
They have demonstrated an inability to keep their oil safe.
There is no reason the route could not have followed the other Keystone pipeline, where the rights of way have already been established, for all that wouldn't fix the lack of reliable safety for their pipelines.
In 2011, this was the scoop:
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) advised him not to approve the pipeline.
Mr Obama said the project would not:
lower petrol prices
create long-term jobs
affect energy dependence
Nothing has changed, Luee, other than that we are a decade further along.
It was a bad idea in 2011 and it is a bad idea in 2021.
