Biden promised not to finance fossil fuels. So why is the US backing a huge gas project?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I'm sorry but you live in a land of delusion. That's just not happening this time. We're not there yet. And you posting slightly snarky comments on a very tiny website like this isn't what's going to turn the tide and turn this into a third party country.
We only have two options. I'm not happy with it either but that's where we are.
I know you're planning on splitting the vote by voting for the conservative instead of a leftist, but I'm not calling you delusional. I'm certainly not lying about how many people are on the ballot.
I never claimed you are lying? Did you respond to the right person?
you lied about how many choices we have.
I've literally acknowledged multiple times that there will be other people on the ballot, I simply am saying over and over in reality it's going to be Biden or Trump.
You claiming that I called you a liar and now you claiming that I'm lying... This isn't you being disingenuous is it? You actually didn't understand what I've been saying all this time did you?
You honestly haven't been following this conversation at all, have you?
that's not what i said. i was contrasting my honesty with your dishonesty.
I'm sorry but this is where I tap out. You're clearly not really following this conversation at all and there's no point continuing it :)
