President Donald Trump on Tuesday took steps to advance construction on two oil pipeline projects that have been fiercely disputed and were delayed under his predecessor, NBC News has confirmed.

Trump signed executive orders that will make it easier for TransCanada to construct the Keystone XL pipeline and for Energy Transfer Partners to build the final uncompleted portion of the Dakota Access pipeline.

The Keystone XL would bring oil from Alberta, Canada, to Nebraska, where it would connect to an existing pipeline to bring the crude to Illinois. Former President Barack Obama refused to approve the cross-border project, saying the environmental review was not adequate in light of its route through the Sandhills ecosystem in Nebraska.

Environmentalists oppose the project because it will encourage the development of Canada's oil sands, a type of oil resource that requires more energy to tap than conventional reserves. Backers of the project say it will reduce U.S. reliance on oil from the Middle East and allow the country to fulfill its energy needs from one of its closest allies.

Exactly. So instead of donating hundreds of millions of dollars to big oil companies who don't need the fucking money, use it for tax breaks for consumers who help lead us into an energy neutral ecosystem.

Obviously you being pension means you can only get the Model 3 65D. But hey, it's a Tesla.

Or go Oprah style.... "You get a Tesla! You get a Tesla!"
