Jen Psaki says we can stay oil independent if companies would just drill on the 9,000 leased lands that they have. "“Well, there are 9,000 approved oil leases that the oil companies are not tapping into currently. So I would ask them that question,” White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said."

The problem is that under Trump, they had permits to drill. Biden reversed those permits disallowing the drilling. The leases are there, but the permits are being denied. So, Biden's administration is lying but why doesn't Fox News and others bring out this fact that the oil companies are being denied the permits. Today, Governor Newsome and courts in California denied drilling off the shores of California. Who knows why because without the drilling, natural seepage will occur causing environmental problems. Also, this oil can help with making us energy independent and get back to controlling the prices of oil.

Vindictive Misfits Green With Envy

When Ronald Reagan was Governor of California, he pointed out the inconvenient truth that seeping clears the atmosphere of deadly microbes (such as the cronyvirus). Don't slip into virtue-signaling to the Unabomber Cult by accepting their vicious and deadly lies about environmental problems.

 

[Rambunctious]

In 2020 there were 32,000 leases...Biden took those away and is contesting every effort to drill and make a profit on the remaining 9000...they are dishonest as hell....

 

[wamose]

The bottom line is Trump had surpluses of oil and natural gas and he understood the value of that situation. Biden reversed everything Trump did because he suffers from TDS and ended up destroying the industry. Biden and Psaki have no understanding of the problem beyond the jive that was written for them by media and party bullshit artists. So the only way we'll ever fix the problem is to get rid of Democrats, especially puppets like Biden, and get Trump back in there.

The leases??..Over that..but hey, who is thinking about the truth?
It's not the parcels we NEED to drill on...LOL

I'd pay to see Pissanti mud-wrestle with Sassy Sarah Sanders.

Why do Democrats never make sense? Psaki's answer to high prices is to buy electric cars at $60,000 a pop. The fact that green energy is 15-20 years from being developed doesn't help with inflation today. But, it's what they want because Congress won't give them Build, Back, Better. So, they raise taxes on people through inflation. When will Biden give the permits to drill?

 

[occupied]

There is lots of oil out there. A field that costs more to produce than the going price is never going to get pumped.

Well, actually, that's NOT her answer. But it's the politically expedient answer for the opposition.
Permits??..more than his predecessor...taxes?...sigh. when will they just tax corporations?..maybe never.

Yes, Trump had 32,000 permits that Biden wiped away with his pen. Remember seeing him at his desks as his handlers were shoving executive orders in front of him to sign. He did away with the permits.
Why do Democrat always think corporations can be taxed? You do know that corporation simply pass tax hikes on to the consumer increasing inflation like it's happening today. It's also a sneaky way to get more taxes from consumers without raising income tax or capital gains taxes. Except most of it comes from the poor who don't pay income taxes.

 

[theHawk]

Psaki is a lying commie bitch.

It’s technically correct, but omits a whole lot of truth. The oil companies went crazy applying for leases everywhere when Biden stole the office. Most don’t have any oil actually in them though. The one purchase they tried to use got immediately stopped by a liberal judge in court.

Jan. 20, 2021 In Executive Order 13990, President Biden revokes the Trump Executive Order 13783 titled “Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth.” EO 13783 directed federal agencies to streamline the oil and gas leasing process and suspend, revise, or rescind regulations that burdened the development of domestic energy resources.
Jan. 27, 2021 President Biden signs Executive Order 14008, which pauses all new federal offshore and onshore oil and gas leasing pending a comprehensive review of the leasing and permitting program. The order also revokes Trump’s EO 13795.
March 15, 2021 The Biden administration asks the Ninth Circuit to dismiss the case reviewing President Obama’s withdrawing certain Arctic and Atlantic coastal areas from oil and gas leasing in light of President Biden revoking President Trump’s EO 13795 (the EO challenged in this case). The Biden administration asks the court to vacate the lower court ruling and remand with instructions to dismiss the case. League of Conservation Voters v. Trump, No. 19-35460 (9th Cir.).
March 24, 2021 Louisiana and twelve other states file a lawsuit challenging President Biden’s pause on new federal oil and gas lease sales arguing that the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA) and the current 5-year Leasing Program prohibit the moratorium. Louisiana v. Biden, Docket No. 2:21-CV-00778 (W.D. La.).
April 13, 2021 The Ninth Circuit dismisses the appeal of the March 29, 2019 decision by a federal judge to reinstate President Obama’s withdrawals of Arctic and Atlantic areas from oil and gas leasing because President Biden’s Executive Order 13990 revoking Trump’s EO 13795 rendered the appeal moot. League of Conservation Voters v. Trump, No. 19-35460 (9th Cir.).
June 15, 2021 A federal judge in the Western District of Louisiana issues a preliminary injunction blocking President Biden’s pause on oil and gas lease sales. The court holds that the leasing moratorium violates statutory authority given to DOI, the Bureau of Land Management, and BOEM under the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act and the current 5-year leasing program. The judge further holds that the immediate impact of the pause renders the preliminary injunction an appropriate remedy and that the DOI may not continue to pause upcoming Lease Sales 257 or 258. Louisiana v. Biden, Docket No. 2:21-CV-00778 (W.D. La.).
Aug. 9, 2021 Plaintiff states file a motion asking the court to order Lease Sale 257 and asking the federal government to show why its failure to make the sale does not put it in contempt of the preliminary injunction. Louisiana v. Biden, Docket No. 2:21-CV-00778 (W.D. La.).
Aug. 16, 2021 The Biden administration appeals the preliminary injunction that blocked the moratorium on new federal oil and gas leasing. Louisiana v. Biden, Docket No. 2:21-CV-00778 (W.D. La.).
Aug. 24, 2021 DOI announces that it will continue to prepare lease sales during the appeal process.
Aug. 24, 2021 The Department of Justice (DOJ) files a memorandum in response to the plaintiff states’ August 9 motion. DOJ argues that DOI had restarted the leasing program and was therefore complying with the preliminary injunction. DOJ further argues that the preliminary injunction did not require the Lease Sale to occur on any timeline, and the government was therefore entitled to complete a new environmental review. Louisiana v. Biden, Docket No. 2:21-CV-00778 (W.D. La.).
Aug. 31, 2021 Environmental groups file a lawsuit challenging DOI’s decision to hold Lease Sale 257 in the Gulf of Mexico, seeking vacatur and injunction of the sale. The groups argue that the sale of Lease 257 violates the NEPA and the APA and estimate that the sale “will result in the production of up to 1.12 billion barrels and 4.4 trillion cubic feet of fossil fuels over the next 50 years.” Friends of the Earth, et al. v. Haaland, et al., Docket No. 1:21-cv-02317 (D.D.C.).
Sept. 17, 2021 Plaintiff states withdraw their motion to compel Lease Sale 257. Louisiana v. Biden, Docket No. 2:21-CV-00778 (W.D. La.).
Oct. 4, 2021 BOEM publishes a notice in the federal register that it will open and publicly announce bids received for oil and gas leases in the Gulf of Mexico Outercontinental Gas Lease Sale 257 on Nov. 17, 2021.
Oct. 29, 2021 BOEM publishes a draft environmental impact statement (DEIS) for Lease Sale 258, which would offer leasing for oil and gas in Cook Inlet in the Gulf of Alaska. BOEM also announces a 45-day public comment period on the DEIS.
Nov. 17, 2021 BOEM holds its largest sale ever, the Gulf of Mexico Lease Sale 257 for 308 tracts, covering 1.07 million acres of federal waters in the Gulf. In approving the sale, the DOI claimed it was acting “consistent with a U.S. District Court’s preliminary injunction.” However, environmental groups argue that this sale was not required by the June 15 preliminary injunction. These groups contend that by not conducting a new environmental review like the DOJ memo suggested was allowed, the federal government sped up the lease sale and worked against its decarbonization goals.
Nov. 26, 2021 DOI issues a report reviewing the federal oil and gas leasing process and making recommendations for reform. The report finds, among other things, that the current system does not give taxpayers fair returns and does not fully account for environmental harm, and that the current system encourages speculation by and decreases competition among oil companies. The report outlines recommendations to fix these problems and concludes that DOI is deciding how it will act on these recommendations and encourages Congress to pass reforms to the oil and gas leasing process.
Dec. 3, 2021 Democratic members of the House Committee on Natural Resources file an amicus brief in support of environmental groups challenging the Gulf of Mexico lease sale, arguing that the administration’s environmental review “substantially underestimates” the environmental harms of the lease sale. The brief also argues that the nationwide injunction issued by the District Court for the Western District of Louisiana “in no way excused” DOI’s obligations under NEPA and the APA. Friends of the Earth, et al., v. Haaland, et al., No. 21-cv-02317-RC (D.D.C.).
Jan. 19, 2022 Over 360 environmental groups sent a legal petition to the Biden administration to reduce oil and gas drilling to 98% lower than current levels by 2035. The petition explains that, without action, it will be difficult for the United States to keep its pledge to keep global temperatures from rising beyond 1.5℃.
Jan. 20, 2022 Over 80 environmental organizations sign and send a letter to the Biden administration, which urges the Department of the Interior to write a new 5-year Offshore Lease Program that bans lease sales starting in 2022. The letter also calls on Secretary Haaland to repudiate Lease Sale 257.
Jan. 27, 2022 The District Court for the District of Columbia blocks Lease Sale 257 in the Gulf of Mexico because the Department of the Interior failed to take a “hard look” at the environmental impact of the project or to account for the effect of overseas fossil fuel use when calculating climate impacts, which violated the National Environmental Policy Act. Friends of the Earth, et al., v. Haaland, et al., No. 21-cv-02317-RC (D.D.C.). For more background on the ruling, see EELP’s overview of the NEPA Review Process or visit our NEPA Tracker Page for the most up to date review requirements.
Feb. 1, 2022 The Department of the Interior mistakenly posted language on its oil and gas webpage that indicated royalty fees for leases would increase to 18.75%. The Department later removed the language, and a spokesperson for the Department said the decision to increase royalty rates was not yet final.

Anyone considering an electric car better look at what happened in California recently when the electric grid went down….. no charging available for any electric car, whoops!

Biden reversed those permits disallowing the drilling.

The Interior Department approved about 2,500 permits to drill on public and tribal lands in the first six months of the year, according to an Associated Press analysis of government data. That includes more than 2,100 drilling approvals since Biden took office January 20.

Despite a Pledge to Ban It, Oil and Gas Permitting Is Up Under Biden

Legal and political realities seem to have tempered the administration’s ambitions for ending fossil fuel extraction on federal lands.

And yet, the White House is on pace to hand out more oil and gas drilling permits this year than any under President Trump and the most since George W. Bush left the Oval Office.

What Biden and Newsome want is the Carter days of gasoline shortages. Remember those days? We may have both shortages for gasoline and electricity since Democrats refuse to build nuclear plants.

The following assessment was made by supporters of green energy: the US is not ready to go green. This assessment predicted bankruptcy for many related sectors and Americans. There are a few countries in the world who can make this transition and are doing so, but the United States, regardless of various illiterates on the left who profess otherwise, is not one of those countries.
