Biden is coming under fire for his attack on oil and gas once again as Canada pleads to keep the cross-border Great Lakes oil pipeline open. .

It is important to remember that the U.S. relies heavily on Canada for much of its crude oil imports, consuming around 3.7 million barrels per day, or about 80 percent of Canada's crude output.

Line 5 is supposed to close by May 13..

Major US Pipelines Closure Enters 4th Day After Cyberattack

Day 4? This implies the company lacks an uncontaminated backup of their database prior to the ransomeware attack or they would have done a restore by now.

“If the disruption stretches on, fuel suppliers would need to use trucks and rail to transport fuel to compensate.”

Oh? What’s the problem then? I thought the Democrats opposed pipelines. Why not tear this one down? After all, what’s another 2.5 million gallons of gasoline, a day, on our roads and rails?

For those FReepers living on the East Coast north of Atlanta it might be a good idea to top off the fuel tanks of your vehicle.

Meanwhile the CIA and FBI continue to be AWOL on attacks on the USA. Remember 9/11, the so called Russian collusion, etc. They’re great with their early morning raids on little old men. Now the CIA is more concerned with hiring women of color and LGBT.

Can’t wait to hear the screeching from the greenies that they can’t get the gas they need. Oh wait, what’s that? Pipelines ARE a crucial part of infrastructure for our country and national security now?

EMJOY THE SUCK!

Good thing Bi-dumb shut down keystone, otherwise his energy crisis would be more difficult. Seems like America is being attacked from all sides, and Biden eats pudding.

Underlying this entire story are some nasty little facts that eco-whacko leftist either don't know, or don't want you to know. There are thousands upon thousand of miles of pipelines in America. They don't want Americans to know that they have operated safely for years and pose no environmental threat. Pipelines are superior in safety compared to tanker trucks and trains. The arguments these leftists use against projects like the Keystone pipeline are completely bogus and without any facts.

It's all about their religion of scientism, based on irrational and contrived fear designed to destroy capitalism in America and to ruin our quality of life. They are so invested in their delusions that one day millions of people will die. That isn't hyperbole. The Soviets killed million through starvation when they confiscated farms and gave those lands to people who had no idea how to farm. The Soviets called it a famine, but it was due to centralized industrialization and a planned economy. To put it bluntly, they were messing with stuff that they had no expertise. That is not unlike the leftists in this country to spread propaganda about fracking, oil and natural gas production. They have gone so far as to attack the delivery mechanisms, pipelines, in an attempt to favor unreliable wind and solar power to solve a contrived climate crisis.

If we do not fight back and destroy these leftists we will soon experience food shortages and freeze to death in winter. Summer may not be too much better.

Nothing stopped this company from having the best cyber defense and IT department. The private sector failing to keep themselves from failing allows for openings from .gov and others to take advantage of the situation.

Who believes this nonsense from the communist cabal running our country?

I mean seriously who actually believes that there were some cyber attack that’s shutting down our pipeline so they can reset their computers and start the pumps again?

If you just go on the notion that the Democrats hate America hate the people of this country and want to try to destroy it in anyway they can take it take it for a month understand the news every day
