Rather confusing until you read the link This is a good thing, a win for Biden... Enter stage left Jan 2022 #1

Exactly. I just posted a quickie explanation below in post #2 BumRushDaShow Jan 2022 #3

Yup. Biden was forced to follow through on some tRump garbage, but now is free of it. . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Jan 2022 #27

WaPo article is very clear, to me. Issue is complicated. . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Jan 2022 #29

Yes - I got that (posted a number of times in the thread) BumRushDaShow Jan 2022 #34

Yes the headline stinks and some people here have run with it without reading. . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Jan 2022 #42

Easier to go along with the sale and focus the energy on appealing the case altogether. cstanleytech Jan 2022 #25

They WERE forced. They DID appeal. They lost the appeal. Enviros won a NEW case. WaPo says! Bernardo de La Paz Jan 2022 #28

Think again. Courts ORDERED sale to go ahead Nov 2021. WaPo article Jan 27, 2022. . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Jan 2022 #30

No. A court ORDERED him to do it. BumRushDaShow Jan 2022 #11

Why didn't they appeal? former9thward Jan 2022 #13

Further comment which I knew to be the case. former9thward Jan 2022 #14

So it will be appealed madville Jan 2022 #9

This is the 68 page decision for any interested. former9thward Jan 2022 #19

Did you read it? Bernardo de La Paz Jan 2022 #32

The case was on appeal. former9thward Jan 2022 #37

NO. They could not wait. You don't know what an injunction is. Read the rulings. Bernardo de La Paz Jan 2022 #40

Here's the AP version of the story. Mr.Bill Jan 2022 #23
