Biden Tries to Lock Up Offshore Oil
Timothy Birdnow
So Joe Biden is planning to use an executive order to PERMANENTLY ban offshore oil drilling.
From the Daily Fetched article:
Joe Biden is set to issue an executive order that could block offshore oil and gas drilling in key U.S. coastal waters, a major obstacle to President-elect Donald Trump‘s energy agenda.
The decree draws its authority from the 1953 Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act, which grants broad powers to protect marine areas from oil and gas leasing.
The 72-year-old law does not explicitly allow future presidents to reverse such protections, which could create legal complications for the incoming Trump administration.
"18 days before it’s obviously repealed?” one X user quipped following the news.
"What a small and petty man.”
To last … 18 days before it’s obviously repealed?
What a small and petty man. https://t.co/yGN3XeFpgl

White House sources familiar with the decision suggested that the protected areas will target regions crucial for coastal resilience.
Discussions for the ban have centred on Pacific waters near California and eastern Gulf of Mexico waters adjacent to Florida.
End
Not sure how a President can impose an eternal exectuvie order (they aare not laws; only Congress can make laws)but no doubt they will go to court if Trump tries to reverse this.
I concur with Hammer; Biden is just a petty, vidictive slittle man.

Why don't they just put some "chemicals" in his milk, to keep him out of trouble? Or in his cookies?

I suspect chemicals are what got him into trouble in the first place Dana.

You may be right Mike!
Anyone remember the old Star Trek story about the guy who turned an alien culture into the Third Reich? They kept "der Fuehrer" drugged all the time so they could run things their way after he tried to rein them in. Was that what happened with Biden?
