A judge in Alaska says Pres. Trump exceeded his authority when he reversed a ban on offshore drilling in vast parts of the Arctic Ocean and dozens of canyons in the Atlantic Ocean.

exceeded his authority when he reversed bans on offshore drilling in vast parts of the Arctic Ocean and dozens of canyons in the Atlantic Ocean, a U.S. judge said in a ruling that restored the Obama-era restrictions.

"The wording of President Obama's 2015 and 2016 withdrawals indicates that he intended them to extend indefinitely, and therefore be revocable only by an act of Congress," said Gleason, who was nominated to the bench by Obama.The American Petroleum Institute, a defendant in the case, disagreed with the ruling.

Earthjustice represented numerous environmental groups that sued the Trump administration over the April 2017 executive order reversing the drilling bans. At issue in the case was the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act.

Shouldn't we be exploring alternative energy sources?

I could write a novel about my thoughts on this topic but I don’t think twitter has a long enough character count so I digress.

So let me guess...appointed by Obama? 9th Circuit? Anyone else getting tired of Obama/liberal/Democrat judges ignoring clear judicial precedent, commonsense and the plain language of the law? Time for the Supreme Court to step in and shut these judicial activist judges down.

tRump simply the biggest mistake in U.S. history.

like it's a group effort at the top right? like former presidents still have presidential power right? like it's not just this guy right?

he probably spent about 5 minutes thinking about it but some government think tank dedicated 5 careers towards taking that stance

Development momentum & heat momentum , which is required in politics in what proportion ?

And the Supreme Court will say this Obama loving judge exceeded her authority when she let her TDS cloud her judgement.

I vote for the guy with the fish on his head. 🙄😂

Right. So, a president has the authority to put a ban in place, but not to remove a ban? Interesting. 🤔

A ''liberal'' judge ... Which explains everything

Yawn...😴

Alaska Trump BigOil

Another low level politically biased judge who will be over turned in the supreme court.

Federal judge declares Trump’s push to open up Arctic and Atlantic Ocean to oil and gas drilling illegalA federal judge in Alaska late Friday declared President Trump’s order revoking a sweeping ban on oil and gas drilling in the Arctic and Atlantic Ocean illegal, putting 128 million acres of federal waters off limits to energy exploration. This is why we can't have nice things! Like we didnt expect this but thankfully realDonaldTrump is appointing over 300 Judges to the Federal Courts and there is NOTHING the left can do. Time to get back to rulings based on the Constitution, not an ideology lol - cool opinion. It’s wrong, and won’t survive legal challenges, but very cute!
