Yes…this is definitely going to upset AOC and the progressive Left.

I haven’t really followed this story…Why is Biden opening up this area for drilling now? I assume it is to help stabilize world oil prices during the Ukraine/Russia war?

too funny
you obviously do not have a clue about oil exploration. oil demand or oil pricing

it is a decades long project

the timeline from drilling to initial production in Alaska is likely 18 months - its a difficult environment to work in
much longer if pipeline infrastructure is required
more likely 5 years to get to its projected peak of 180,000 bbls per day
meanwhile the world consumes 90 to 100 million bbls / per day
this oil field alone will not move oil prices

i bet you thought it is just a matter of drilling a hole and then opening a valve

if sleepy joes did this to 'help stabilize world oil prices' he is a clueless as you


no, he spent a lot of political capital to approve this as his advisors have finally figured out the energy crisis they created will become much worse

the loonie left in his party will go ape sit over this and... then they will fly somewhere to tell the unwashed masses to reduce their 'carbon footprint'

Revisiting the Keystone pipeline would be a good idea as well......But well you know...

Biden also added more conserved land as part of this deal.
Sounds like he thought it was a compromise solution, but too big a price to pay.

I bow to your superior knowledge of the oil industry, Sir.

Profit.

It is in the DNA of the U.S. irrespective of which party is ruling.

no amount of climate virtue signaling will get a politician elected if the voters are unemployed and freezing in the dark

It makes me sort of laugh that Fox is so hyper focused on her. Why? Is it because she is an eloquent speaker who bitch slaps GOP stupidity? Is it misogyny....Probably. We've seen time and time again how the GOP attack women. From AOC and the Squad to Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton.

But, there are things you can slam her on. It is true, she hasn't really passed any substantial legislation. But the bullshit Fox pushes out...mind blowing. The interview with AOCs former opponent is pretty funny. She basically lies that AOC is uninformed, or a job killer....just like Kevin O'Leary.

You mean like the lefty media went after Tulsi Gabbard, Kristi Noem, Sarah Palin, Naomi Wolf, Paula Jones and many, many others? Or how all women are to be believed... except when they accuse Bill Clinton or Joe Biden? Yeah, I agree- it is laughable.

an eloquent speaker ?????
WTF ??
She is a blithering idiot, who thinks her misguided ideologically driven moral values get to dismiss facts


Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: :I think that there’s a lot of people more concerned about being precisely, factually, and semantically correct than about being morally right.

Anderson Cooper: But being factually correct is important

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: It’s absolutely important. And whenever I make a mistake.
She is a blithering idiot

Maybe you can realize that the common denominator between these women and AOC and the other 3 in the quad, is that they are all women.

Women in politics are mercilessly attacked in USA, no matter what ideology they believe.

EVERYONE is mercilessly attacked in politics, hence it's called dirty politics. You're old enough to remember how Margaret Thatcher was treated by the media.

Another example of a women. LOL

You and I are not woke, but we have to admit that women are treated dirtier than men, irrespective of their political stripes.
