Trump Signs Executive Order Unwinding Obama Climate Policies
NY Times ^ | March 28, 2017 | CORAL DAVENPORT

Posted on 03/28/2017 12:33:46 PM PDT by Innovative

President Trump signed on Tuesday a much-anticipated executive order intended to roll back most of President Barack Obama’s climate-change legacy, celebrating the move as a way to promote energy independence and to restore thousands of lost coal industry jobs.

Flanked by coal miners at a ceremony at the Environmental Protection Agency, Mr. Trump signed a short document titled the “Energy Independence” executive order, directing the agency to start the legal process of withdrawing and rewriting the Clean Power Plan, the centerpiece of Mr. Obama’s policies to fight global warming.

The order also takes aim at a suite of narrower but significant Obama-era climate and environmental policies, including lifting a short-term ban on new coal mining on public lands.

Signed at the EPA! You have to love this guy’s sense of style. Hey Obama, how’s that for optics!

Add to the running list of successes while the media laments the “Trump administrations” total collapse, disorder and ruin. It’s almost like the MSM is providing a fictional, frantic cover story for their liberal consumers while Trump continues charging ahead.

But . . . but . . . there was an article by Delingpole saying that Scott Pruitt was already “part of the swamp.”

For all the scared Conservatives out there who are bemoaning Trump’s “failure” to repeal ObamaCare, remember that he is doing this work too.

Winning so big, it brings tears to my eyes. The dems are so foul in how they destroy people with their pc legislation, you know they would jail non believers if they could. They are traitors to our country and should be treated as such.

Those are the NeverTrumps.

They are only along until they have a chance to crow about how much more conservative they are, while never even getting close to what Trump is pulling off.

Thank Goodness!

Hope the coal mines start up in McDowell County in West Virginia start up again.

If want to see real poverty, watch some videos from McDowell County. 25 dollar an hour jobs taken away by Obama and the climate change Democrats.

Trump won West Virginia by 42 points. Kept his promise to bring hope to these poor people in the hollows.

Hillary promised them solar power prosperity. What a scam in an area surrounded by mountains and cloudy weather.

It’s magnificent, the dummyrats in Twitter are howling as bad as I’ve ever seen them.

Have you ever noticed that the same people who support “man made global warming” are the Same people who supported Sovietism? Once their one dream of Marxism died at the hands of the Gipper, they came up with a new con to control the people

So far, I see that word “failure” as delay. If he reaches out to Democrats, then it becomes failure.

For all the scared Conservatives concerned woosies and trolls, out there who are bemoaning Trump’s “failure” to repeal ObamaCare, remember that he is doing this work too.

Remember how some of our woosies predicted a stock market crash because Ryancare got torpedoed?

Well that didn't happen:

S&P 500 2,358.57 +16.98 (+0.73%)

Dow 30 20,701.50 +150.52 (+0.73%)

Nasdaq 5,875.14 +34.77 (+0.60%)

Thank you, President Trump.

Every day I pass one of New England's motionless/useless wind turbines ($2M/MW) I smile. The gigantic ones on Cape Cod ($4M/MW) are especially funny. That the Kennedys single-handedly banned them from wherever their mansions look upon is hysterical.

I saw that. When I read it, it sounded more like he had an axe to grind with Pruitt than anything else.

How did Kurt Schlichter re-name "climate change"?
He called it the Left's "weird climate religion" -- HA!

I drove through Iowa two or three years ago (Route 80?) and it seemed like twenty miles worth of non-functioning wind turbines.

An eye-sore.
