President Trump orders oil drilling operations to resume off California

The Trump administration has signed an executive order to resume oil drilling operations off the Southern California coast, citing national energy security concerns.

The order, which invokes a Cold War-era Defense Production Act, will prove controversial despite the potential to bring down gas prices, which are now the highest in America.

Gov. Gavin Newsom also flagged the state would challenge the order in the courts. (...emoji.mine)

The new Trump move aims to restart oil production at a cluster of offshore platforms run by Sable Offshore (SOC.N).

"Drill Baby Drill"

Not surprising the California "climate Czar" Gov. Newsom, who still flies in planes that use fossil fuel, would put up a fight to block oil drilling in California.

This will likely end up in the courts, and to The SCOTUS.
By using the Defense Production Act, it could be a win for Trump because fuel is needed for the military.
If oil cannot be imported to the US due to what's going on in the Middle East, and our military doesnt have fuel, it would be a national security emergency.

Hopefully, the Trump administration will prevail in drilling.
