Biden administration cancels massive Alaska oil and gas lease sale

The Biden administration has canceled one of the most high-profile oil and gas lease opportunities pending before the Interior Department. The decision, which halts the potential to drill for oil in over 1 million acres in the Cook Inlet in Alaska, comes at a challenging political moment, when gas prices are hitting painful new highs.
In a statement shared first with CBS News, the Department of the Interior cited a "lack of industry interest in leasing in the area" for the decision to "not move forward" with the Cook Inlet lease sale. The department also halted two leases under consideration for the Gulf of Mexico region because of "conflicting court rulings that impacted work on these proposed lease sales."
Federal law requires the Department of the Interior to stick to a five-year leasing plan for auctioning offshore leases. The administration had until the end of the current five-year plan — set to expire at the end of next month — to complete these lease sales.
Until now, the White House had remained silent about the massive Alaska lease. However, canceling the sale would be in keeping with political promises President Joe Biden made in the name of halting global warming.

Democrats punish those who aren't on their "side."
This is where Lisa Murkowski screws up. She keeps trying to please them, they shite all over her.

Politcs is a pendulum. Each time it swings the other way it goes further. Both sides seem to care more about upsetting the opposition than they do about what's best for the country.

Its seriously mind blowing that people still accept political terrorism as "standard business operations."

Yep. It's how they get and maintain control over freedom loving people.

So nobody in the industry want to place a bid at an auction to lease the land? I'd think there would be news coming out on the other side saying someone wanted to and it was cancelled.
I want more details.

They do, which is why they're leftists. Leftists cannot function in a non collective environment.
"I need feminism because...." Is a fantastic insight into this lack of self sufficiency and independence.

Politics of this issue aside, that's the exactly opposite of how a pendulum works...

So frick over all Americans, to accomplish nothing. How can libs/dems support this administration? Literally being fricked over and over, just to be fricked. This old fricker needs to croak and hopefully the vp can choke on something and do the same.

But you're right in that regard. Both sides are pushing the political pendulum.
