In a masterful strike against the eco-extremist agenda of the left, President Donald Trump, along with Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, have opened Pandora’s box of energy independence.
They have reversed the absurd ban imposed by Joe Biden, opening over 625 million acres for oil and gas drilling and exploration.
This move is nothing less than a declaration of war against progressives who want to see the United States on its knees.
In a ridiculous and cowardly maneuver at the end of his term, Biden intended to strangle our economy under the guise of «climate change».
But Trump and Burgum have said «Enough!» to this attempt to turn the United States into a dependent and weak nation.
It’s time for America to reclaim its energy greatness, reviving an industry that provides jobs for millions and ensures our sovereignty.
In a fiery and determined speech, Trump proclaimed:
«I will not let the radical left dictate how we should live or how we should use our own resources. Let’s drill, baby, drill. America rises again.»
The energy industry and patriots across the country have applauded this decision.
This maneuver is a direct challenge to the green ideology of the left, showing we are not willing to surrender to environmental blackmail.
On social media, citizens have shown their support under the slogan: «Drill, baby, drill»
President Trump announced that the 625 million acres that Biden banned from drilling in his last days in office are once again available for future oil and gas leases.
Although this action faces legal challenges, as Biden attempted to use the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act to impose his ban, Trump and Burgum are ready to fight for what is America’s right.
We will not let bureaucracy or judges with political agendas stop our progress.
The economic impact will be devastating for the detractors of common sense, bringing jobs, lowering prices, and ensuring our independence.
Progressives can cry for their «green economy», but the reality is that without oil and gas, the United States will not be the powerhouse it deserves to be.
This action by Trump and Burgum is more than an energy policy; it’s a battle for the soul of America.
It’s a clear message to both internal and external enemies: The United States will not bow to the fallacious ideology of the left.

We will drill, and we will do it with pride. Drill, baby, drill!
Drill Baby Drill
Promise made
Promise kept
Stupid judge incoming HOT
To complete this picture, Trump needs to also speed up the permit process for exploration and drilling. The EPA drags its feet on processing exploration and drilling permits. What can take months or years should be streamlined to a couple of days.
Huh?
Maybe the author means another box.
DRILL BABY DRILL!!!
Pump it like you stole it! ThankS PDJT!
We need to do this with cell phones, computers, medications and all the way down to cheap plastic crap sold on endcaps at Walmart and other discount places.
Is this the same land that Biden declared off limits at the end of his term? There was supposed to be something in the law backing up his EO that the president could declare land off limits but it required Congressional action to allow drilling again. That could have been BS or there may be a fight about that coming up.
Reopen ANWR!
Yay!
Hoping they’re so upset they actually move. I hear EUtopia is nice this time of year.
So now the fired Fed workers can work at ANWR!! Jk
“Pandora’s box” is OK, although technically what was in Pandora’s box was evil, and energy independence is good.
“Looks like the President done changed his position on offshore drillin’!”
Maybe the writer thinks energy independence is evil.
Opening the land for drilling does not mean the drillers will take the risk of spending money when It can all be taken away on January 20, 2029
As I recall this land was open for leasing and not leased or drilled. We had a very excellent Freeper oil man who designed drilling pads that somehow didn’t get used.
He hasn’t been around in a while and I miss his knowledgeable posts
Yahoo!
The judges have become like Adolph in the bunker—ordering divisions of twelve years to defend Berlin.
These are the last days of the enviro-wackos. All they have left is their insane fuhrers in the bunkers.
Awesome - this is the one I’ve been waiting for.
Oil prices to fall, all other prices to follow.
