Media Tries to Scare People re Harmless Pipe to Feed Va. Power Plant
The Democrat mainstream media was striking out by using the trite phrase of “blast zone” to try and scare people who happen to live near the path of a simple, safe natural gas pipeline, like that proposed in Hanover County, Virginia. As the lefty libs so often do, they’ve changed their language in an effort to change how people perceive such a project. It’s no longer a blast zone, now (drum roll please)…it’s an INCINERATION zone! Yeah baby! You’ll be fried to a crisp if you live near a pipeline and that pipeline experiences a leak and explodes. So pathetic.

A group of hardened leftist Democrat Pennsylvania legislators, in a coordinated attack with the state’s horrible Attorney General, Josh Shapiro, are making a play to shut down the fully operational Mariner East pipeline system. Two weeks ago Shapiro, who is running for governor next year, indicted Energy Transfer’s Mariner East 2 (ME2) pipeline project with 48 so-called environmental crimes (see 
Last Friday the owner of the Glen Riddle Station Apartment complex in Delaware County, PA convinced a weak county judge to order the release of emails between officials in Middletown Township and Energy Transfer, owner of the Mariner East pipeline system. The Glen Riddle apartment complex owner is hoping he can find some minor, obscure statement in the letters to reignite opposition to finishing the third and last Mariner East pipeline that runs across his property. How selfish.
In October 2020 the Sisters of the Corn (our name for a group of leftist nuns in Lancaster County, PA) filed yet another frivolous lawsuit against Williams over a pipeline that crosses their land–a pipeline (Atlantic Sunrise) that has been up and running safely for years (see 
EQT CEO Toby Rice laid the blame for the developing world energy crisis, particularly Europe’s lack of access to natural gas, at the feet of radical environmentalists. If not for the radicals and their constant frivolous lawsuits blocking pipelines and LNG export facilities, such infrastructure would already have been built and would be providing abundant, cheap, clean-burning Marcellus/Utica natural gas to other regions of the U.S. and to Europe.
Last week we told you about the uber-sleazy Attorney General in Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro, handing down an indictment with 48 counts against Energy Transfer over (mostly) drilling mud spills–accidents that were previously addressed and handled by the state Dept. of Environmental Protection (see 
According to a Bloomberg article, the energy crisis that’s led to electricity shortages and blackouts in Europe and Asia may be heading for the U.S. Utilities in New York and New England are warning customers to expect higher residential heating bills this winter due to surging global natural gas demand and prices. The fact is the U.S. has plenty of natural gas. The problem with high prices and potential outages is lack of pipelines to flow natural gas from where it’s extracted to where it’s used.
Yesterday as Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro falsely accused Energy Transfer (ET) of “crimes” while building the Mariner East 2 (ME2) pipeline, another bit of news about ME2 played out in the state’s court system. The PA Supreme Court agreed to hear a case in which several Big Green groups and a long-time anti-fossil fueler are demanding ET pay them back for legal fees in a lawsuit initiated by them against ET, a lawsuit they ultimately lost. Talk about arrogant.
