Yes, you read that right, the 9th

9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals panel nullifies barrier to Keystone XL pipeline
Needless to say, the green justice warriors went forward with suits against the construction based on the old permitting. Now, in a decision that may shock many here, a 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals panel nullified a key barrier to the construction of the project, arguing that it no longer applies after the Trump administration replaced a permit earlier this year.
The court ruled Thursday night in favor of the Trump administration and TransCanada Corporation’s motion to dismiss.

So there are apparently Judges within the 9th Circuit Court so anti-Trump that even the full Circuit Court of Appeals finds their anti-Trump rulings wanting. This is actually the second time in the past couple of months that the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled in the Administration's favor. Perhaps, they are a bit tired of having their rulings overturned at the Supreme Court level.

Meanwhile, the environmental group that filed the original complaint has vowed to continue to fight this, but just not as you might suspect. Their strategy (it would appear) is to start over and see if they cannot find another District Court Judge to halt the building of the pipeline. Seems odd, but probably a much better bet than appealing to the USSC. They claim that the overlying legal issue here is "saving the earth" and that there is some sort of legal responsibility for the Administration to "pay attention to the science".

We'll see where this goes, but it cannot bode well for an environmental group, when you cannot get a favorable ruling at the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.

Be proud donks

On this day in 1964, Everett Dirksen (R-IL), the Republican Leader in the U.S. Senate, condemned the Democrats’ 57-day filibuster against the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Leading the Democrats in their opposition to civil rights for African-Americans was Senator Robert Byrd (D-WV). Byrd, who got into politics as a recruiter for the Ku Klux Klan, spoke against the bill for fourteen straight hours. Democrats still call Robert Byrd “the conscience of the Senate.”

In his speech, Senator Dirksen called on the Democrats to end their filibuster and accept racial equality.

Filed under you heard it here first:

There's already whispers around NY that AOC will primary Schumer in 2022 or Gillibrand in 2024.

Either is fine. They're all shitty.

Funny how that works. It's only the little people that have to sacrifice.

The environment takes another shot from the old fat man in the WH...The left does not support drilling in sensitive areas like the tundra and off the coast of floriduh and east...And I'm curious what little people have to sacrifice if the keystone pipe dream does not happen since the oil will not be used in the US.......?????

Less we Forget this Win.
"The Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) or Bakken pipeline is a 1,172-mile-long (1,886 km) underground oil pipeline in the United States. ... The pipeline was completed by April 2017 and its first oil was delivered on May 14, 2017. The pipeline became commercially operational on June 1, 2017."

Politico Found Old dummy Denny "false"
"Will all the oil from the Keystone XL pipeline be exported?

By Dan Clark on Sunday, April 16th, 2017 at 12:00 a.m."

One of the idiot 23 Dwarfs

"’ve opposed the Keystone strategy for a long time because it is an export strategy," Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-NY, told the Press-Republican newspaper in Plattsburgh. "It doesn’t even have any oil for America to make our gas prices cheaper."

"It’s literally oil from Canada taken through America, so we take all the risks of any kind of spill or any kind of problem, and then it exports it to Mexico and then straight to China or other places," she said.

PolitiFact rated a similar claim from then-President Obama Mostly False in 2014. "

Fatty uses a Yuge amount of oil.

Monday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” host Andrea Mitchell called former Richard Nixon White House counsel John Dean’s appearance before the House Judiciary Committee regarding special counsel Robert Mueller’s report “theater.”

Mitchell said, “What can John Dean actually provide? Because the circumstances are different. The law is different in terms of the special prosecutor back then and the independent counsel now, one works for the Justice Department back then it was slightly different.”

Losing the hardest Socialist Democrat.
