A federal judge blocked the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline Thursday, ruling that the Trump administration hadn’t justified changing President Obama’s earlier rulings.
Judge Brian Morris of the U.S. District Court for Montana, who was appointed by Mr. Obama, handed environmentalists a huge victory by saying Mr. Trump’s decision to sign the permit for the Canada-to-Texas pipeline shortly upon taking office did not have a sufficient basis ....

Gorebal whoreing.
“Was this judicial autocrat waiting to avoid embarrassing Tester?”
And the voters just re-elected Testes who enabled this judge! Hope a whole bunch of these scum become unemployed because of their vote!
The senate should just appoint judges everyday for two years and nothing else. Let the house investigate while the senate saves our country for decades.
This stoopids ruling will b overturned and the judge will b shown to be a dumbass
It’ll be others who lose their jobs, not the Tester liberals. MT has beautiful landscapes and sunsets, but the voters there aren’t too bright.
Swipe of the pen, citizens go screw yourselves.
And Montana has not a DAMNED thing to do with the Dakota access pipeline.
So Obama issues a ruling. And it can never be overturned unless a president gives a justification? I didn’t realize Obama was an emperor.
Just another Obamajudge™ to foul the works until the appeals courts are back under adult control.
This is why President Trump needs to act *now*, to ask the senate and house judiciary committees to clearly nail down lower federal judges, that their jurisdiction is the limit to their jurisdiction, that they are *not* all “national judges” whose orders apply to everyone and can overrule the POTUS or the congress in ALL the US.
These precious seconds of the lame duck congress are the last opportunity for TWO YEARS to bust up some of these log jams.
His rulings are in abeyance while the trial is in process.
AP and Reuters omit to mention the Judge was appointed by Obama.
btw what does this Judge know about “greenhouse gas emissions”?

9 Nov: Reuters: U.S. judge halts construction of Keystone XL oil pipeline
by Brendan O’Brien
“The Trump administration tried to force this dirty pipeline project on the American people, but they can’t ignore the threats it would pose to our clean water, our climate, and our communities,” said the Sierra Club, one of the environmental groups involved in the lawsuit...
Trump, a Republican, said the project would lower consumer fuel prices, create jobs and reduce U.S. dependence on foreign oil.

FU Judge. Seriously.
How does the judge justify blocking Trump’s ruling?
SCOTUS has to move beyond overturning. They have to issue a stern warning to lower courts to keep their mitts off things reserved for other branches, under threat of sanction.
Think we can just start calling them "Skidmarks".
judge Brian "Skidmark" Morris.
DACA wasn’t even an executive order - it was a MEMO.
They try coming after Kavanaugh for "perjury", there's gonna be DC cherry trees decorated for Trumpmas.
Two words justifies the changing...
I WON
