    Yep what else is new....

    Sounded like the people fought and won a month ago where they would be building those pipelines, but now Trump is signing into action new pipelines all over the place...

    People never have a say....all politics forever and always...

    Good news for the economy in general, and Donald Trump pushed it through incredibly quickly. It was just draw dropping how fast he acted.

    The best part of that was him letting all business know that his aministration was going to be very business friendly and approvals like this wouldn't take anywhere near as long.

    I think Keystone was something like eight years ? That's just incredible, no business can afford to have their efforts delayed like that.

    They better get it under that reservoir fast.
    When spring comes, I predict there will be about a billion protestors there. Woodstock without the bands. Folks that could care less about Native American burial grounds, ....and more about creating a showdown with Trump. Same protestors and funding that we saw last Saturday. Perhaps forcing Trump to make a decision as to whether or not to use force on civilians.

    Whether people voted for him or not, like him or not, ...whatever. Conspiring against Trump at every turn to see the man fail at this point in the game is just stupid. But people need drama.... so it is what it is. Feed the media, derail America. Not real bright.

    Trump makes direct profits of the pipeline - at the expense of endangering the water and environment. Pipelines often leak,last Dec only150 miles from the DPL protests a pipeline leaked 176,000 gallons of oil into a a creek. He is using his presidency to make the US a monopoly board for his own personal gains while shutting down the EPA so he and his oil cabinet can rape and pillage the environment. He will be impeached. That drama you speak of are people protecting their human rights and our environment. Ever see pictures of the pollution in China? Trump accelerates the concentration of wealth and power to the very few at the expense of all of us.

    Impeached, hahaha.....the chances of him getting impeached are 0.000001%. It would never happen.....it would take months and months and tens of millions of people protesting to maybe get him impeached. As long as the Dow keeps setting records, as long as you can post pictures of your food on Facebook and buy shiny new iphones, get your $5.89 cup of starrrrbucks coffee and get Amazon prime delivery in a few hours no one is going to care what Trump does, no one is going to get him impeached no matter what laws he passes.....

    You don't think perhaps its too early to make that call? So he staffed his cabinet with billionaires. Who do you want to run Treasury,... Joe the Plumber? I say give the man a chance.

    And there's no "human rights" involved in pushing this pipe under the Missouri for gosh sakes. If we looked at every pipeline in the world like that, we'd still be in the 19th century. You, I, and everyone else who reads these words enjoys the benefits that energy provides. Time marches on.

    You can't tell me all the snow-flakes out there are nothing more than brain-washed babies incapable of educated critical thought. And you also can't tell me that the main stream media does not thrive on drama. Human rights my ass. We are the gold standard. Read up on ALL the atrocities committed against millions of our fellow human beings in the last 100 years. What will be your retort? We waterboarded a few at Gitmo? We interred Japanese Americans? Watch some documentaries about what the Japanese did in China, Singapore, Burma. Those interment camps in CA were like Trump Tower in comparison. And lets not forget Hitler. How about the Khmer Rouge?

    I think a few Indian bones will be just fine as we push a 4 foot diameter pipe under that reservoir. The demonstrators (not the Native Americans) are merely zombies being programed by those far more intelligent that have an alternate agenda. That agenda is to get Trump to step on his crank and open the door to impeachment. Why these forces want to derail a safe, strong, free and prosperous U.S. is beyond me. He's our President now. Lets rally behind America.
    Give Trump a chance.

    It's as if everyone thinks Keystone XL is the first and biggest pipeline in the world. Far from it. And Keystone's pipeline is already complete. The "XL" bit is just another section from the Alberta sands to the junctions in Cushing OK and points further south.

    And guess what people would need to protest with tar and feathers and burning pitchforks? Tar! Comes from crude. Man. So they are consuming oil to protest that which they doth not like! Fascinating.
