Biden to Cancel Alaska Oil, Gas Leases Issued Under Trump
Breitbart ^ | 8 Sep 2023 | SEAN MORAN

Posted on 09/08/2023 3:50:01 PM PDT by Mr. Mojo

President Joe Biden’s Interior Department said it would cancel the oil and gas leases issued in the latter days of President Donald Trump’s administration.

Biden has said he would move to protect roughly 19.6 million acres in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) for polar bears and caribou.

“As the climate crisis warms the Arctic more than twice as fast as the rest of the world, we have a responsibility to protect this treasured region for all ages,” Biden said in a written statement.

Trump issued the Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority (AIDEA) seven leases right before Biden’s inauguration. The move is part of a larger strategy by which Biden has moved to cancel oil and gas exploration on public lands.

AIDEA said it would challenge the move.

“This latest action by the Department of the Interior shows arbitrary disregard for Federal law, based on campaign trail rhetoric. Campaign promises are not enough to justify this agency action,” AIDEA said in a statement.

The commies care about 2" lizards and antelopes but note they don't give TWO SH*TS about the DEAD WHALES and dolphins on the East coast resulting from their off-shore wind turbine underwater ground-mapping testing.

They LIE, LIE, LIE and LIE some more. Doesn't matter if we know this and don't like being lied to, THEY WILL KEEP ON STEALING ELECTIONS all over the country and we'll continue to wonder HOW it is these LIARS KEEP GETTING ELECTED.

Makes sense if you want to increase the price of oil and rate of inflation.

Jimmah Carter 2.0 but this time the federal debt is 30 TRILLION dollars and that’s not sustainable. Can’t pay 20% interest relative to our GDP.

In any universe.

The Inuit are pissed.

At this rate, they'll be begging for the Russians to take back Alaska.

I wonder what his end game is?
@@@@@@@@

The end game is to artificially create a Bolshevik vs Proletariat Amerika ripe for revolution by destroying the middle class. One cannot have a revolution of the common people with a strong and upwardly mobile middle class.

Only by creating hopelessness and despair among the people will the masses rise up and overthrow their rulers, ushering in a new government of a communist nature. (They see themselves as the beneficiary of this revolt as the enlightened ones)

When fuel prices go up (diesel), food prices will go up.
Along with everything else.

And he has the nerve to show up in Alaska on 911. I wonder what that’s about and I hope he gets a reception worthy of himself.

Isn’t that something. Joe kills off the oil leases in Alaska, then goes there? On 9/11? Talk about tone deaf.

Hell, he doesn’t know where he was going or what he is at any time.

Biden want them to sell beaded necklaces instead of working in the drilling fields. Seriously, those oil wells are their economy. You ever see the youtubes of the prices of groceries in Alaska?
