The oil comes to Texas first to be refined, the pipeline shut down is THE pipeline that takes all that refined product to the north east. Texas is swimming in oil right now with the pipeline down it’s filling storage tanks at Texas City and port A as there is no.where to send the finished product. Tanker trains full of volatile petrol is a bad idea as is full tankers by barge or ship. Petrol is shipped via pipeline for a good reason. Don’t conflate two very different issues. The keystone shutdown is good for West Texas oil every barrel not shipped in Canada is replaced with a barrel of West Texas sweet. Lots of Texas oil men are down right pleased keystone is dead it’s great for Texas.

Why would they need to shut down the pipeline due to a (faked) cyber attack?

Does the flow require a computer somewhere to be online? Does said computer control the flow of gasoline?

Seems to me that’s a bad way to do business.

Lots of money changing hands right now and the money is the only thing real about any of it.

We’re only on day 111 out of 1461. The communists in Washington Democrat City are just warming up.
