Wait, what? Something is different with this one. Hmm...

Trump Declares Day 1 End to All Biden Restriction on US Energy As part of his speech at the Turning Point Action conference on Sunday, President Donald Trump promised to reverse every Biden-ordered restriction on the production of US domestic energy starting on Day 1. Those orders would, of course, include Biden’s shameful cancellation of the Keystone XL Pipeline as well as his year-long “pause” on permitting of new infrastructure related to the export of liquefied natural gas (LNG).
The President also promises to reverse “the insane Biden EV mandate” and to “declare a national energy emergency.” The latter is especially significant since declaring a national emergency would give Trump extraordinary powers to hold up some of the hundreds of billions of dollars in IRA subsidies that both the EPA and DOE have been handing to leftist NGOs like, as one EPA executive described it recently, “throwing gold bars off the Titanic.”

It’s like their last desperate gasp, I don’t think it’s going to work though.
Yes. Every leftist is literally a living meme chirping “President Elon” and “Oligarchy”. That and politicians patting themselves on the back for keeping government open and doing it for kids with cancer or some such.

It doesn't matter. It changes not a single thing. Musk is an ally of President Trump and that's not going to change, and all the pissing, moaning leftists know it.

What would it take to finish that damn pipeline in four years time?

"Elon is controlling Trump!" Soros said on X. "No billionaire should hold the power to influence the incoming leader of the free world to make decisions that counter the power we have to influence the current leader of the free world. Something has to be done to stop this. But only for presidents we don't like." ...

The leftist hang wringing over Elon is just another shade of the old divide and conquer tactic. There’s no way that these two will be deterred by them.
Like Obama said, “Elections have consequences. I won.”

That pipeline is an interesting design to protect the permafrost.
In 1978 while working at Page Communications, I put in a Slow Scan TV at the pipeline river crossing north of Fairbanks to detect ice jams that could damage the pipeline. They would use dynamite to break up the ice jam.
.......................... The Trans-Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS) uses a variety of methods to protect the permafrost, including:
Elevation More than half of the pipeline runs above ground on refrigerated vertical support members (VSMs). These H-shaped frames elevate the pipeline about 6 feet above the ground.
Thermosyphons These tubes are bored into the permafrost to cool the ground directly below the pipeline.
Refrigeration systems In areas where the permafrost is close to freezing, the pipeline is equipped with passive refrigeration systems. These systems use anhydrous ammonia to absorb heat from the pipeline and release it into the air.
Insulation The pipeline is wrapped in insulation and buried in refrigerated ditches. The surface is also insulated with wood chips.
Teflon-coated steel shoes The pipe is placed in a Teflon-coated steel shoe that allows it to slide as it expands and contracts.
Zig-zags The pipeline's distinctive zig-zags allow it to flex in the event of an earthquake.
Thawing Permafrost has Damaged the Trans-Alaska Pipeline and ... The pipeline was designed to handle the dynamic nature of permafrost, but not in a rapidly changing climate. The Arctic is warming at a rate up to three times the global average.
Russia and Iran have agreed to sign a mutual defense pact. It will be signed the day before Trump is inaugurated. That's not a coincidence. It's an in your face insult to Trump by Putin.
Given Trump's well deserved hatred for Iran (after all, the Iranians stated that they want to kill him), I would think that this would make it less likely that Trump would want to cut any kind of deals with Putin. https://www.newsweek.com/russi...inauguration-2005782

There may also be supply chain concerns with large diameter pipe.
My company sourced pipe for a (recent) gas conversion at one of our power plants, and a lot of pipe was coming out of Ukraine at the time.
We were fortunate to obtain what we needed.

Merry Christmas to the Radical Left Lunatics, who are constantly trying to obstruct our Court System and our Elections, and are always going after the Great Citizens and Patriots of the United States but, in particular, their Political Opponent, ME. They know that their only chance of survival is getting pardons from a man who has absolutely no idea what he is doing. Also, to the 37 most violent criminals, who killed, raped, and plundered like virtually no one before them, but were just given, incredibly, a pardon by Sleepy Joe Biden. I refuse to wish a Merry Christmas to those lucky “souls” but, instead, will say, GO TO HELL! We had the Greatest Election in the History of our Country, a bright light is now shining over the U.S.A. and, in 26 days, we will, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. MERRY CHRISTMAS!
