    Wasn’t that the whole point of the Venezuela bullshit? To steal their oil? If we’re doing that then why would we need to poison homes and schools by building new wells?

    Does he realize that if we start extracting every drop of oil we can from every source, its going to tank oil prices, which means less money will be made.

    Pedo Fucktard doesn’t even seem to understand what he’s doing, or basic economic principals…

    Do oil companies even want to develop those sites? I was under the impression they don’t really want to build out a lot of new infrastructure for a market moving toward shrinkage…? Is this high quality crude or something?

      The key thing is that this law substantially limits new wells inside Los Angeles, where oil fields are interspersed with neighborhoods.

    Available reporting shows multiple, inconsistent tallies of Donald Trump’s litigation outcomes depending on scope (administration regulatory cases, state suits, private civil suits, settlements). For example, the Institute for Policy Integrity’s analysis — cited in Democracy Forward and CalMatters — found Trump’s administration lost 79 of 85 federal agency deregulatory/policy cases (a roughly 7% win rate for that narrow category) while CalMatters reported a roughly 31% win rate for suits filed against his rules in his first term
