    A permanent injunction has been issued by a judge in Louisiana against President Joe Biden's moratorium on new oil and gas leasing on federal land in 13 states.

    The Hill reported Judge Terry Doughty of the District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, a Donald Trump appointee, ordered the permanent injunction in a Thursday ruling.

    Thirteen states had sued over the moratorium issued in January 2021…

    …Doughty ruled the moratorium is in violation of the Mineral Leasing Act and Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA).

    "Both statutes require government defendants' agencies to sell oil and gas leases," he said in the order. "The OCSLA has a five-year plan in effect that requires eligible leases to be sold. Government defendants' agencies have no authority to make significant revisions in the OCSLA five-year plan without going through the procedure mandated by Congress."…

    The 13 states benefitting from this ruling will see a quick boost to their economies. This will help keep red state economies running stronger than the national average

    Judge is a Trump Nominee who is also an antivaxxer.

    What else is there to say?

    That Biden can’t overrule a congressionally passed law by executive fiat. What else matters here?

    Assuming that your take on the OP and the Newsmax report is accurate in it's portrayal, then the system and rule of law is working as it should. POTUS is not a King nor above any law.

    No, he is not. The report seems to be clear and up front about the issue the judge ruled in in issuing his order on behalf of the appeals court
