🚨 BREAKING: The Supreme Court has ruled that the 303-mile Mountain Valley Pipeline can resume construction, delivering a MASSIVE blow to the climate cult that tried to stop it.
This is a fantastic win for American energy independence!https://t.co/fki73OPM3k

The Supreme Court’s wise decision nullified an order from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, which had the audacity to stop the construction of a measly 3.5-mile stretch in the Jefferson National Forest in Virginia. Like, seriously? Aren’t there more important things to worry about? Apparently not for these green warriors.
Let’s be real here, folks. The Mountain Valley Pipeline is essential for our great nation’s pursuit of energy independence. It originates from the gas fields in western West Virginia and extends into Virginia, connecting us to vital interstate lines. We could have been swimming in that sweet, sweet energy by now, but no, the environmentalists just had to throw a tantrum.
And let’s not forget about the economic benefits. This pipeline is projected to bring in an additional $45 million in annual tax revenue to West Virginia and Virginia. That’s money that could go towards creating jobs, improving infrastructure, and making America even greater. But no, the environmentalists would rather see our economy suffer while they hug trees and sing kumbaya.
Thankfully, West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey has been a strong voice in support of the Supreme Court’s decision. He understands the importance of the MVP to our energy sector and the economy of West Virginia. It’s refreshing to see a leader who puts America first.
Of course, the environmental groups are throwing a fit. The Wilderness Society and the Southern Environmental Law Center are up in arms, claiming that the pipeline infringes upon the separation of powers and is unconstitutional. Give me a break! They’re just trying to derail progress with their legal mumbo-jumbo.
These environmentalists have been crying wolf about potential environmental impacts. They say the pipeline could damage public lands, pollute waterways, and put communities at risk. But let’s get real here, folks. These claims are just scare tactics meant to distract us from the fact that we desperately need this pipeline for our energy needs.
It’s not just the conservative folks who are celebrating this ruling. Even the Biden administration, bipartisan lawmakers, and the fossil fuel industry are on board. That’s right, folks, even the folks on the left are starting to see the light. It’s hard to argue with the fact that the pipeline would generate tax revenue and royalties for West Virginia landowners.
So, let this Supreme Court ruling be a wake-up call to the environmentalists. We can have energy independence and protect the environment at the same time. It’s time to put America first and let progress march on. The Supreme Court has spoken, and it’s time to get those pipelines pumping!
