Trump Restarts The DAPL Controversy!

The fuhrer reversed the decision to stop the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipeline.

With a stroke a pen, the fuhrer allows the natural beauty become a wasteland. A couple of executive orders resets an issue that his predecessor tackled.

Fuhrer Donald J. Trump restarts the controversy involving two pipelines that drew major controversy.

President Barack Obama blocked the Keystone XL pipeline and the Dakota Access pipeline. The decision to block the pipelines won approval from Native American right groups who for years demanded the pipeline to realign the path. They believed that the pipeline could rupture and cause great damages to the water supply and bring unnecessary destruction to the land.

The Standing Rock Sioux tribe warned Trump to not allow the pipeline to continue. He ignored it.

In December, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers denied the pipeline builder Energy Transfer Partners the permits to carry forth. The pipeline was supposed to be going under Lake Oahe in North Dakota.

The decision was calling for a review of the safety and environmental impact of that route.

The State Department rejected the TransCanada request to build a 1,179 mile pipeline that would run from Alberta to Nebraska. Now the fuhrer's minions may greenlight the project despite the backlash.

I mean if Make America Great Again is destroying the environment with pollution, then you're truly a Trump supporter.
