Several months ago, there was an event at the White House that was attended by some climate activists.
One of them asked Joe Biden about more drilling being approved.
Biden told the activist, “No more drilling.”
He just went back on that promise.
Drill, Baby, Drill
Conservatives are finally excited about something that Joe Biden did.
He just approved a drilling project that will open up a project that had been proposed during the Trump administration.
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) endorsed the plan on Wednesday, stating, “The BLM has identified a preferred alternative in the final SEIS. Alternative E removes one of the five proposed drill sites from consideration and defers consideration of another.
“Additional environmental analysis would be required to move forward with the deferred fourth pad, and the final record of decision may identify additional deferrals.”
This drew the immediate ire of conservation groups…
The best way to describe the Willow Project is a climate disaster in waiting. @POTUS needs to start considering federal drilling decisions as significant matters of climate. #StopWillow

Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-AZ) also went off on Biden, stating, “Giving ConocoPhillips the green light on the Willow project is not just a disaster in its own right — it paves the way for even more oil and gas drilling in the area in the future.
“Today’s decision sends the dangerous message that the fight against climate change, Alaska Natives’ and local residents’ lives, and wildlife are not good enough reasons to keep Big Oil from getting their way.
“This is the exact opposite of what the Biden administration stands for and the opposite of what Alaskans and this country need.”
See that… Joe breaks his promises to everyone!
