Really a contrast with the incredible immunity and power the US courts are willing to give Republican Presidents.

And this is why there is more drilling under Biden. Court orders to keep up drilling, court orders to allow exports and court orders stopping climate legislation. The courts being stacked by Trumps judges.
Is it? I thought he was just continuing the same policies from the Obama Admin. Limiting exports doesn’t sound like a way to limit fossil fuels being extracted, it sounds like a way to keep the domestic market cheaper. But idk
And the pause was only started in January. So I don’t see how you could blame courts for the previous 3 years. He’s an Obama Democrat. He loves drilling.
There are quite a few earlier cases for drilling though. For example Biden tried to stop new leases for oil and gas projects on public land, but that got struck down by a court. That was three years ago.
Also this is about new export terminals. Due to new emissions regulation for cars, the inflation reduction act and a few other laws, US oil and gas consumption is likely to fall. So the oil and gas companies try to export more. Hence more terminals.
Thanks. Forgot about that
