Watch the insert video that features Alex Epstein:

Biden has gone to ban drilling on Native Lands. Native Americans are rightfully up in arms over the ban.

The Biden administration is moving forward with a 20-year ban on new oil and gas leasing near an Indigenous cultural site in New Mexico despite stark opposition from Native Americans in the region.

Interior Secretary Deb Haaland finalized the action Friday which bans fossil fuel and mineral leasing within a 10-mile buffer zone around the Chaco Culture National Historical Park in northwestern New Mexico. The ban ultimately amounts to a withdrawal of approximately 336,404 acres of public lands from mineral leasing near the site some Native Americans consider sacred.

"Today marks an important step in fulfilling President Biden’s commitments to Indian Country by protecting Chaco Canyon, a sacred place that holds deep meaning for the Indigenous peoples whose ancestors have called this place home since time immemorial," Haaland said in a statement.

"The exceptional landscape in the Greater Chaco region has profound cultural importance," Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Director Tracy Stone-Manning added. "Today’s announcement marks an important step in ensuring Indigenous voices help inform the management of our public lands."

Alex is one of the few people that "Gets It". You should all buy and read his book.

Team Biden is the most Energy Ignorant group of people on Earth.

Wind and Solar is not GREEN. Mining for the materials needed to scale up wind and solar is much more NOT GREEN than oil & gas exploration & development.

Team Biden isn't ignorant but willfully and intently destroying and undermining the USA economically and our country as a whole via the assinine government policies via energy, infringing on our Constitutional rights or the FED with their own policies. Team Biden/Obama/Bush/Clinton administration have eroded our country and the US is on the brink of becoming a third world country and a police state. The FED is clueless. They only thing they know how to do is create asset bubbles and prick these so called bubbles at the worst possible time.

The mining for lithium films in Africa I saw show hundreds of poor people in rags, with tiny children, in an open air
pit breaking rocks down with crude hand tools. It's horrific. But it is true. Never seen anything like that in the oilfield.
