10% for the big guy.
The Biden administration is trying to ban real cars in favor of electric cars. It’s pushing unreliable wind and solar over reliable gas, oil and coal energy sources. All of that requires lots of lithium for energy storage and that makes us dependent on China.
Meanwhile, the Biden administration also keeps shutting down efforts to mine lithium in America.
Rover Metals Corp. is pleased to announce that it has it received its exploration drill permit from the Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) to further exploration at its Let’s Go Lithium (“LGL”) project, NV, USA.
The LGL project is located on approximately 6,000 acres of BLM land within the prolific southwest Nevada claystone lithium jurisdiction. The BLM permit allows for up to 30 drill holes to a depth of up to 90 meters per hole.
That was in April. And obviously, it couldn’t last.
Federal land managers have formally withdrawn their authorization of a Canadian mining company’s lithium exploration project bordering a national wildlife refuge in southern Nevada after conservationists sought a court order to block it.
But before a judge in Las Vegas could rule on the request, the Bureau of Land Management notified Rover Metals on Wednesday that its earlier acceptance of the company’s notice of its intent to proceed “was in error.”
“In error”.

They're not conservationists. They're environ-MENTAL-ists. Why would it be so hard to work with the company to make sure they don't foul the nest while mining the lithium? That's what actual conservationists would do. JMO.
Back in 2006, my oldest son and I flew into Brussels, Belgium to begin a trip where we would visit some places together, then split up in Paris, to continue our own journeys to other counties. We had first class tickets on the train from Brussels to Bruges. When we got to our seats, other people were seated in them. We notified the female conductor who said there was nothing she could do about it. We ended up having to take seats apart from each other, while someone else got the benefit of our reserved seats.
Opps, sorry, wrong thread.
A Regime that hates its own population deliberately does things that are harmful, disruptive and dysfunctional.
He’s doing what the CCP paid him to do. What’s the problem? Move along.
This isn’t Biden’s intention, but he is hastening the collapse of the electric car industry. Look at the secondary market for used electric cars. The prices are collapsing. The entire car industry is in a downward spiral. But in the end ICE cars will win out.
Not only does the EV use lithium, but substantially more copper, nickel and other materials we aren’t mining here. Where does much of the world’s supply originate? Russia. It never made economic sense to build EV’s. Now it makes even less sense.
Nasty proposition.
Not surprising given the Biden’s took millions from the Chicoms.
Because in the mind of leftists, it’s better to exploit slave labor from foreign countries than to pay Americans a decent wage to do the same thing.
Why trust a cabal of mass murderers to be stewards of the environment?
Or he's doing what the CCP paid Hunter to do. Notice how Hunter goes with him on these foreign trips.
Or he’s doing what the CCP paid Hunter to do.

HB is only the front man for the Biden Criminal gang.
A man who REFUSES to acknowledge a granddaughter does not hesitate to USE his own son as a proxy for his crimes.
I wonder if the CCP and Ukraine are working together here.
Burisma gave the bidens millions to cripple our oil/gas industry and the CCP is paying the bidens millions to cripple the auto industry.
I agree with you. Hunter is just the “buffer” between the CCP and Joe Biden. I think he’s a go between.
“Biden Keeps Shutting Down Lithium Mining Making Us Dependent on China”
Take that Putin and She!!!! We’re not only going to make our civilian automobiles dependent on Chinese Lithium, we’re going to make our military ALSO dependent on Chinese Lithium.
So, give it up dictators, you do not STAND A CHANCE against President Biden!!!!
I don’t see the matter for alarm here.
He’s only doing what he was paid to do. /s
THAT, however, is the real problem...the one they all keep trying to convince the public otherwise.
