Nebraska Dem Party Chair Afraid Russia, Saudi Arabia Will Build Pipelines Through U.S.
2016-12-07
[Free Beacon] Nebraska Democratic Party chair Jane Kleeb said in an interview with RT that she is afraid Russia and Saudi Arabia will build oil pipelines through the United States while Donald Trump is president.

Kleeb brought up her concern while speaking with host Ed Schultz about the the ongoing controversy surrounding the Dakota Access Pipeline project and her strong opposition to the Keystone XL Pipeline.

"You know what Trump is saying, that he’s going to get rid of the executive order that requires the State Department to review any pipeline that crosses our U.S. border," Kleeb said. "And that’s obviously very dangerous because if he does that, that means a pipeline from Saudi Arabia, Russia, whoever that wants to cross into the United States would literally have no federal oversight, no review, no environmental review. No federal agency right now other than the State Department reviews those pipelines when it crosses one of our borders, so he’s being reckless."

Schultz is currently a host on RT, a television network funded by the Russian government that critics argue is a propaganda tool of the Kremlin.

#2  Indirectly yes. You screw around in the world driving oil prices up. Others are going to go looking for cheaper and more secure sources to keep them operating in a oil oriented world. Who's causing the problems? Ergo, Russia and Saudi Arabia will build the pipelines through the U.S. It's a feature, not a bug.

#1  Could also use the nuts graphic. Or maybe we could upgrade it to a screaming loon in a straitjacket.
Nuts graphic it is.
