Liz Warren Plans To Ban All Fracking, New Fossil Fuels Leases On Day 1

And she would be sued out the ying yang on day 2

(Breitbart) Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) on Friday promised to sign an executive order on her first day in office, putting a moratorium on new fossil fuel leases and pledged to ban fracking “everywhere.”

Warren promised in a tweet Friday to “sign an executive order that puts a total moratorium on all new fossil fuel leases for drilling offshore and on public lands” and vowed to “ban fracking — everywhere”:

On my first day as president, I will sign an executive order that puts a total moratorium on all new fossil fuel leases for drilling offshore and on public lands. And I will ban fracking—everywhere.

Warren’s pledge to ban fracking follows Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-VT) call, urging fellow Democrat candidates to support a “fracking ban on public and private lands.”

“Fracking is a danger to our water supply. It’s a danger to the air we breathe. It causes earthquakes. It’s highly explosive. Safe fracking is, like clean coal, pure fiction,” Sanders said in a statement Wednesday.

First, she doesn’t necessarily have the legal authority to ban all fracking across the nation: she can’t just change federal and state law with the wave of an executive order, even on federal land. At a minimum, she would be violating legal contracts. Second, she really is just exposing that she, like so many Democrats, are just despots in waiting.

Third, would this apply to re-authorization of existing leases? They need to be re-authorized periodically, so, would she kill those? Why does it seem that every Democrat wants to skyrocket the cost of energy for citizens, which will skyrocket the cost of living, all while running around the nation on fossil fueled vehicles? How would she get to work and other places without fossil fuels? What will she do when kids are freezing to death because the wind turbines and solar panels can’t provide enough energy for heat? And when people are cutting down more trees for fireplaces?

Seriously, she’s saying she wants to start destroying the economy and the lives of citizens on day 1. And lots of groups and companies would sue her on day 2 for violating contracts and exceeding her legal, Constitutional authority.
