Colombia's president orders national oil company to cancel US venture over environmental concerns
Summary
Colombian President Gustavo Petro ordered state-run oil company Ecopetrol to cancel its joint venture with U.S.-based Occidental Petroleum (Oxy) over environmental concerns.
The $880 million project in the Permian Basin, set to produce 90,000 barrels per day, involved fracking, a practice Petro strongly opposes. He urged reinvesting in clean energy instead.
While Colombia bans domestic fracking, this marks the first time it has blocked an overseas fracking deal.

The cruelty is the point. It's part of his promised retribution.
Full circle: blame immigrants for all the problems, froth up the racism & xenophobia, block immigration reform, & reelect the insurrectionist & coup leader.
It won't lower the price of eggs, but it satisfies the bloodlust that the GOP has been ginning up since Newt Gingrich & the Tea Party took over in the mid 90's.
Shameful
Don't worry, be happy.
Musk & Trump are shredding the US Constitution and laws like in a high performance document shredder.
But there is basically no mechanism to hold Trump accountable or force him to follow the law, the GOP Congress has already decided that it's okay if Trump breaks the constitution a bit. Totally fine.
Musk is safe as long Trump does not order him prosecuted.
I still remember the times when rule of law was sold as a serious location advantage for the USA.

Nominative un-determinism?
