“Biden has approved more drilling permits on public lands per month than the Trump administration did during Donald Trump's first three years in office.”

Withholding permits on leases that companies have already required was not something he said he was going to do.  As a matter of fact the BOEM can't without drilling permits on currently leased acreage as it has an obligation, by federal law, to support the development of the nations resources.

And that quote makes no sense.  How can you compare and avg./month to a total over 3 years.  Might want to go check your quote because that makes no sense.  Or are they saying they are doing more permits/month and Trump did over the entire 3 years.  Or does it mean literally the BOEM is approving more per month than Trump did per month?  See why this is confusing?  

Ok so I just went and read it and the author just done F'd up that quote.  He posts no data, and makes a statement that makes no sense from a statistical point of view.  It's vague and frankly just incoherent and really has nothing to do with his own post.  Comparing permits /month to a total over 3 years with no data............ *shrugs*.  Sounds like another political hack trying to sound smart and failing.
