Dem Sen. Jon Tester Admits It Was a Mistake for Biden to Kill 11K Jobs by Cancelling Keystone Pipeline
MenRec ^ | 02/03/21 | Staff

HARLOW: “Do you believe it was finally a mistake for the Biden administration to cancel the Keystone XL Pipeline on day one in office given the impacts of 11,000 American jobs. Do you think it was a mistake? I know you think it was a mistake to do it in general but I wonder about right now this moment given the economy on its knees.”

TESTER: “Well, look, I’ve been a supporter of the Keystone Pipeline. And there has been two caveats and they have been basic caveats, you do it to the safest standards and you respect private property rights. I think the Keystone Pipeline folks could have done a better job of getting the Fort Peck tribe on board and they need to continue working to do that but in the end, I think that’s — it’s a good project. I believe in climate change. But I also think that this one pipeline isn’t going to turn it around, isn’t going to turn our climate around and it’s not going to make it markedly worse situations. But so in the end, yeah, I supported the Keystone Pipeline.”

He’s up in 2024, if it were 2022 I’d understand why he’s upset because he’d lose the election if played right.

Probably no more than 3 Democrats going against Biden on this Keystone project. But I bet at least 3 or 4 Republicans support Biden.

Tester is stupid if he thinks that Biden himself is making these decisions. He is delusional if he thinks his opinion matters to the people who control the demented, corrupt Biden.

Stupid question and response. It seems to me if they are going to shut it down it is better to do it now before the company pours more money in it.

Montana just elected a Republican Governor, a Republican Senator and a Republican Representative.

Jon has to talk conservative for a while.

The mistake was the people of Montana thinking there is such a thing as a conservative Democrat.

It was WAY WAY MORE than 11,000 jobs he killed.
He’s been in office 2 weeks and the Oil price is up 20%!

No it wasn’t a mistake. It was a planned hit on our economy by a leftist controlled administration

"done a better job of getting the Fort Peck tribe on board"

What is the Tribes problem with the pipeline? Ancient lands? Burial lands? Hate to sound crass, but were they offered any percentage of the proceeds? Or maybe Keystone profits could offer to finance a casino?

That aside, Biden's ignorance and obsession with climate change astounds me. So instead of a clean pipeline, he's okay with diesel trains and trucks spewing out carbon until he gets his solar (fail) and windmills which neither can provide the energy that runs our nation and our standard of living? The boy/man is a simpleton.

So, solar and windmills are going to produce enough electricity for the 10's of thousands of plug-ins they project? Do they have any idea how much petroleum by-products will be needed just to produce and build them? Yes, they are that stupid.

Don't want carbon? Build nuke plants. The technology is making them smaller all the time. Small local Thorium plants are almost here with no threat of meltdown, so I've read.

Well Biden could reverse his eo anytime, but the fact that he won’t just proves that he does not have our best interests in mind

If Biden writes some more “laws” aka executive orders, watch this country collapse.

Dissagree. The media will bury the pain and suffering caused by the lost jobs, and besides, the would cheat hi. Back into office if they felt it served their purposes to ,eep him as illegit pres.
