Citing an amicus brief filed by TC Energy, a federal judge on Jan. 6 dismissed as moot a 23-state case filed against President Biden over his decision to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline cross border permit on his first day in office. In his decision, U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Brown wrote, “...the court takes TC Energy at its word that Keystone XL is dead. And because it is dead, any ruling this court makes on whether President Biden had the authority to revoke the permit would be advisory. Thus, the court has no jurisdiction and the case m...

Well I opened my gas bill for December today... Cuss words. I had expected the bill to be larger than normal because I keep my thermostat at around 65 degrees, which is about 90 degrees warmer than it has been outside on those -30 degree days. Still. Holy shiitake mushrooms. Even running the air-conditioning in Arizona on 120+ degree days during the summer months pales in comparison with what this costs. That led me to think about why the bill is so high. I don’t crank the thermostat up to unholy temps. I wear a jacket and socks in my living r...
