They are just bored, they'd protest that it's Tuesday afternoon if someone made the suggestion


True that, Cap. There are too many twits who think it de rigueur to turn up at the slightest hint of a protest just to take selfies and pat themselves on the back. Spineless, shallow and brainless and without a doubt the dregs of the gene pool.

The Eco-warrior Moonbat Brigade is100% self centered. They are Ego-warriors.

Cloth shopping bags and bamboo coffee stir sticks is all for nye. One 100km road trip to a Provincial Park wipes it all out.

U.S. judge orders Keystone XL pipeline review in setback for Trump

A federal judge in Montana on Wednesday ordered the U.S. State Department to do a full environmental review of a revised route for the Keystone XL crude oil pipeline, a move that could delay the project and prove a setback for the Trump administration.
For more than a decade, environmentalists, tribal groups, and ranchers have fought the $8-billion US, 1,900-km pipeline to carry heavy crude to Steele City in Nebraska from Canada's oilsands in Alberta.
U.S. District Court Judge Brian Morris ruled for the Indigenous Environmental Network and other plaintiffs, ordering the review of a revised pipeline route through Nebraska to supplement one the department did on the original path in 2014.
In his ruling, Morris said the State Department was obligated to "analyze new information relevant to the environmental impacts of its decision" to issue a permit for the pipeline last year.

No comments

Supporting the project are Canadian oil producers, who face price discounts over transport bottlenecks, and U.S. oil interests and pipeline builders.
TransCanada Corp, which wants to build Keystone XL, did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the ruling. It hopes to start preliminary work in Montana in coming months and begin construction in the second quarter of 2019.
The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment, nor did the State Department.
The ruling was "a rejection of the Trump administration's attempt to flout the law and force Keystone XL on the American people," said Jackie Prange, a lawyer for the Natural Resources Defense Council, an environmental group.

How does a judge in Montana order a review for Nebraska after they state gives the go ahead?

Be a lot more than than that when we stop importing OPEC oil and the East has to buy from the US. Be a good time to ding Quebec over the killing they mage by jacking the price of the power they buy from NFLD and sell to the US. (another perfect example of why things have to be dismantled down to the last brick or the repair job is only cosmetic, as intended)

No Federal court in Nebraska where it is more relevant?

Or is it Judge shopping why not go to the Hawaiian court they seem more open ;)

That's correct.

That's why a Federal Judge in Hawaii can make a ruling that resonates on the mainland.
