Biden is considering canceling federal oil and gas leases… As gas prices approach $10/gal in California – Is it up with that?

Same corrupt Obama judge void the lease of the Gulf of Mexico in November 2021, Rental sales blocked in Wyoming, signed a FISA fraud warrant in a Russian collusion hoax and unlawfully attempted arrest of General Michael Flynnhas now brokered a deal between the anti-American Biden madness of the Interior Department and an Enviromarxist terrorist organization to potentially retroactively cancel more than 2,000 oil and gas leases in Wyoming… climate change.
Biden review jeopardizes more than 2,000 oil and gas leases
By Nicole Pollack Casper Star Tribune Via Wyoming News Exchange June 4, 2022CASPER – The Biden administration will re-perform an environmental review of more than 2,000 oil and gas leases in Wyoming sold between 2015 and 2020 – including virtually all contracts granted under the former president Donald Trump – according to a trio of settlements approved Wednesday by a federal judge.
None of the leases are vacant, but their future is uncertain. The Home Office has now had to re-evaluate and retroactively reason for more than two dozen rental transactions. If it decides that it cannot, or its reasons do not satisfy the court, the sale may be canceled and any existing licenses revoked.
Jeremy Nichols, the director of the climate and energy program for plaintiffs WildEarth Guardians, said the decision was unprecedented.
“This is at the heart of the federal oil and gas program,” Nichols said. “The question is not whether leasing in the Red Desert or the Powder River Basin is, but whether the federal oil and gas program still makes sense amid the climate crisis.”

“Backstage court settlements like these, negotiated by the Biden Administration and domestic anti-oil and gas allies, will continue to determine the fate of Wyoming’s key economic driver until the National reassert control and establish a consistent national energy policy,” Ryan McConnaughey, communications director for the Wyoming Petroleum Association, said in an emailed statement.

U.S. District Judge Rudolph Contreras ordered the department in 2019 to reevaluate several Wyoming leases. A year and a half later, he declared the company’s second attempt was not enough.

In cases prior to Contreras, environmental groups have successfully argued that the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) requires the kit to assess the “direct, indirect, and cumulative effects” that new leases have on will have to the environment and climate. But the oil and gas industry argues that is an incorrect interpretation of the landmark 1970 law, which made no mention of climate change.

“Some groups won’t be satisfied until NEPA is turned into a law unrecognizable to its framers, used to halt all mineral resource production,” McConnaughey said. property in Wyoming.

This is perhaps the most serious “suit and settlement” case in the history of the Enviromarxist law against the US economy. Enviromarxist terrorist organizations sue regulatory agencies, who, when under Democratic control, quickly resolve lawsuits requested by Envriomarxist that are often not the same as the statutory powers of these agencies. management agency.
Ponder this for a moment…
“This is at the heart of the federal oil and gas program,” Nichols said. “The question is not whether leasing in the Red Desert or the Powder River Basin is, but whether the federal oil and gas program still makes sense amid the climate crisis.”
There is no “climate crisis”… While there may be a potential long-term climate change problem, it is an actual crisis, a “real and present danger” for the United States. Period:
$9.45/gal!! Thanks to Matthew for this photo of Chevron in Mendocino, CA- the most expensive station in the country and the highest price we’ve ever seen. It’s $3/gal above the California average and a glaring disparity. #gas price pic.twitter.com/7AUuxDLCGI

Gas is almost at an amazing $10 a gallon
By Eileen AJ Connelly
June 4, 2022New Yorkers pay five dollars a gallon for gas You might think things couldn’t get any worse – but in one town in California, people are shooting almost twice that amount to fill
A Chevron station in the seaside village of Mendocino about 175 miles north of San Francisco charged $9.60 a gallon Friday afternoon.
That’s $3 a gallon more than the state average of $6.30 and $4.78 more than the national average of $4.82, according to AAA.
But individual stations around the country are charging more than average, including a LA radio tops $8 on Friday.

While we can’t correct stupidity, we can brush off this letter from Thomas Jefferson:
Everyone cannot be all, and always, fully informed. The wrong part will not be satisfied corresponding to the importance of the facts that they misperceive. If they are silent on such misconceptions it is a coma, the forerunner of death to public liberties. We had 13. 11 independent states. There was a riot. That led to a rebellion for a century and a half for each state. What country has survived a century and a half without a rebellion? And what country could defend its liberties if its rulers were not warned of the times that their people uphold the spirit of resistance? Let them hold hands. The remedy is to make them true, forgive and reassure them. What indicates that a few lives have been lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be renewed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is natural manure.
