He was a pipefitter laid off from the Keystone project trying to figure out in what world he was going to keep his daughter in college, his retirement plan intact, and pay his many bills as we all have.  Along with thousands of others from the Keystone his job no longer exists.

Daniel Turner, founder of Power the Future, assured us this move had absolutely "nothing" to do with green energy.  It had to do with the railroad moguls and the wind charger industry, who now stand to profit, backing and funding the presidency of Joe Biden.   Don't forget many jobs were also lost when Jobkiller Joe halted construction of the border wall.  Now this project also sits in an unfinished heap.

The Joe Biden machine is a runaway train.

You are spot on with the fact it have 0 to do with being "green". Burlington Northern Santa Fe Rail is owned by Berkshire Hathaway whose chairman happens to be Warren Buffet and it runs from Canada, to the Midwest and texas. The rail stood to lose arnd 2 billion (give or take) per year upon the completion of the pipeline. The cost of moving oil with the pipeline was arnd $10/barrel while the rail will cost arnd $30/barrel to move the oil.

Now, it will take roughly 1,143 rail cars per day to be able to move what the pipeline was projecting they could transport when finished. That also translates into roughly 6,154 trucks daily moving the same amount of oil. 

So keeping that in mind, the pipeline is inarguably cleaner than either trucks or rail. Once again this has nothing to do with protecting the environment and everything to do with an agenda. On a side note.... Buffet gave extensively to the Dems in the last 2 election cycles. Gotta keep those donors happy

The only thing "greener" from this is Warren Buffet's pocketbook.  Ahhh, yes, I can feel the planet cooling off already.  Biden is the perfect choice by the Dems.  He can govern like a lame duck.  He knew he wasn't going to serve a second term anyway.

 Biden won't make it the full 4 years.  Democratic decided that when they ran him.
