Big Oil Donors Will Sure Like This One
Trump just gave away America’s last wild frontier — to Big Oil. It’s the largest giveaway of public land to fossil fuel companies in modern history. The announcement, made Thursday by Trump’s Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, opens 1.56 million acres of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge wilderness to oil and gas drilling.
Burgum bragged that “Alaska is open for business,” calling it a win for “energy independence.” Translation: the Arctic is open for destruction.
