BILLINGS, Mont. — The Biden administration has suspended new oil and gas leasing and drilling by the U.S. government for 60 days as part a review of programs at the Department of Interior.
The move follows President Joe Biden’s campaign pledge to halt new drilling and end the leasing of publicly owned energy reserves as part of his plan to address climate change.
The suspension went into effect immediately under an order signed Wednesday by Acting Interior Secretary Scott de la Vega. It drew a quick backlash from the oil industry.
The order also blocks approval of new mining plans, land sales or exchanges and the hiring of senior-level staff at the agency.

That ought to please Conservative Princess of Impeachment Liz Cheny and her oil baron ex-veep establishment father. Think maybe you voted for the wrong guy Lizzy as our energy industry gets shut down about your ears? When gas goes to $4.50/gallon or more, the extra we pay will go directly out of American workers incomes into Middle east, Russian and Iranian coffers to fund more Bin Laden and Lad Biden American terrorism. Biden/Bernie American Socialism has wedded Muslim terrorists. Joe just opened the door for more to come in.
“The last capitalist we hang shall be the one who sold us the rope.” – Karl Marx
Aided and abetted by the Biden/Bernie Communist Siamese twins joined at the hip ,who first gave us a “rope a dope” election, then began hanging Lady Liberty and our freedoms now financing our enemies without with redistributed oil revenues, are becoming the Socialist enemies within. Joe Biden, who is first a traitor to his gender, followed by a traitor to his race, a traitor to his former great Democrat Party, culminating in becoming the traitor to this nation , now being dismantled piece by piece. The Conservative media keeps asking why with the inauguration over do we need tens of thousands of troops in our Capitol. Because when the traitors kill the filibuster in the Senate and 51% only is needed, they will bust the last fiber of our checks and balances to enforce their will upon any and all who would peaceably oppose them.
The security of the United States means nothing to a traitor named Joe Biden. Our military will be so dependent on foreign oil, that the Chinese will take over our Country, as our military will not be able to mobilize. Joe and Hunter are in bed with China and China owns Joe and Hunter, so what does one expect?
Good, that will help get the price of gasoline up to $4 a gallon so his voters can start appreciating their vote to get him and camel hairs into the WH.
Most wouldn’t CARE imo.. THEIR BRAINS are too rotted.
