#1 The Russians, the Iranians, the Saudis, and several other Clinton Foundation donors.

#2 And in public instead of private, Hillary (and all the other democrats) always shows more respect for the Russian-backed groups than the oil industry.

#3 I love the editorial in the last paragraph. Idiots.

#4 You'd think it would be far cheaper to buy state elected officials rather than feds. At least in New Mexico it is and there is no new drilling or fracking. The state government is having to deal with a significant deficit created by the drop in income largely attributed to legacy wells not delivering as much revenue as projected. Never occurs to them to make it up in volume. The Greens (Reds) reign.

#5 Fracking is NOT a drilling procedure; it is a completion procedure. 'Vast' is an imprecise term - compared to an ocean it is a negligible amount of water. Technically it CAN contaminate ground water if everything is done wrong, but only a few actual cases seem to exist. (Lots of groundwater -and surface water - contamination occurs due to poor auto maintenance.)

#6 Violent?

Can we cue the video of the vaporizing birds in California? THAT'S violent.
