Trumpf Junta Ready to Permanently Despoil Alaska

"The Department of the Interior announced a sweeping package of actions to boost energy development, modernize land and resource management across Alaska, and improve public health and safety for Alaskans. These steps include reopening the Coastal Plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge for oil and gas leasing, completing right-of-way permits for the Ambler Road, moving forward with the King Cove"Cold Bay Road corridor through a land exchange, and providing land allotments for eligible Alaska Native Vietnam-era veterans. Together, these actions reduce regulatory barriers, support local communities, and strengthen Alaska's role in national energy security and economic growth." "From day one, President Trumpf directed us to unlock Alaska's energy and resource potential while honoring commitments to the state and local communities," bleated Secretary of the Interior oligarch Doug Burgum.

... The Trump administration is readying a proposal to open almost all U.S. coastal waters to new offshore oil drilling despite opposition from state governors and the president's previous efforts to close off some of the territory.

The draft plan for selling oil leases includes waters near the southeast U.S. that President Donald Trump tried to close off while campaigning for reelection five years ago, a nod to Republican allies worried about the risk of spills fouling beaches and their tourism-tied economies.

Documents detailing the expansive Interior Department proposal were reviewed by Bloomberg News. It isn't clear that the drafted plans have been presented to Trump for his approval; they could change before they are published.

A spokesperson for the Interior Department said the agency won't comment on deliberative information, but added that it "has been clear that there is a national energy emergency and all options to combat that crisis and win the AI race against China are on the table." ...

Great, just great. As if the Gulf of Mexico doesn't have enough of a Dead Zone or flesh-eating bacteria and the waters off San Diego are polluted so much that USN Seal candidates have gotten sick.

I guess Republicans don't enjoy seafood or the beaches.
