tony: transcanada does point out instances where the people and property were threatened. this fight over the stove as it blurt -- over keystone, has it blurred the line between peaceful protest and domestic terrorism? isaac: that is the activists' concern, though they are being treated as if they pose a much more serious, violent threat than actually do. a number of them say they have been contacted by the fbi in recent months and are confused about why that is. mark: what is the fbi's role h ere. isaac: the fbi is the nexus for sharing information about domestic terrorism threats. they have been contacting people in the pacific northwest region in recent months and also i spoke with a professor who says he was contacted in texas and another in pennsylvania in recent years having to do with opposition to fracking. mark: so contacted but in the sense that we not necessarily putting you under investigation you are not necessarily a person of interest, but we want to know what was going on at these meetings we want to know what was going on at these protests. isaac: that is

speaker if this bill grants a regulatory earmark to transcanada corporation, effectively exempting transcanada's keystone tar sands pipeline from all federal permitting requirements, including requirements that apply to every other construction project in the country. keystone will increase carbon pollution and threaten critical water resources. tar sands are a dirty, high-polluting fuel. it produces up to 40% more carbon pollution than conventional oil. even with the current proposed route, leaks from the highly corrosive pipeline will threaten the aquifer, a critical resource for drinking water and irrigation. mr. speaker, we don't need this dirty oil. since keystone was proposed to cut u.s. oil demand week of dramatically boosted less polluting u.s. oil production. in fact, much of the tar sands oil will not got america but will go through america and be exported oversales. this leaves the united states with all the -- overseas. this leaves the united states with all the risk and no reward. i urge my colleagues once again to vote no on this legislation. it is not good for this country. the sp

tell us about that. >> transcanada, even though a local judge has told transcanada they cannot use imminent doemain until this case goes back to the nebraska supreme court even with that ruling transcanada is still knocking on the doors of landowners, harassing them, offering them three times the amount of money that they originally offered. there are 100 landowners in nebraska that will not sign their land over to transcanada. >> what about the veto override? it still can't be constructed until these issues play out, correct? >> yeah. i mean even if they pulled some unicorn move in the house and senate and got enough votes to override the veto the reality is this pipeline will never be built. there's this huge legal issue about the pipeline route and imminent domain rights. there's an ongoing fight in south dakota. this pipeline would never get built, even if they got a permit today. >> your reaction to john boehner and mitch mcconnell saying they're going to keep on fighting? what does that mean? >> they have already started some parliamentary procedures minutes after the president vetoed

transcanada keystone pipeline l.p. shall certify to the president that materials derived from tar or oil sands that are transported through the pipeline will be treated as crude oil and fund the oil spill liket trust fund. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady from california is recognized for five minutes in support of her motion. mrs. capps: i rise today to offer the final amendment to this bill. passage of this amendment will not prevent passage of the underlying bill. if it's adopted, my amendment will be incorporated into the bill and the bill will be voted upon. mr. speaker, no matter if you support or oppose keystone x.l. we can agree, extracting and transporting oil has some serious risks. only takes one small crack, one small mistake to cause a major oil spill and a catastrophe. the damage to surrounding communities and the environment. history has shown us there is simply no such thing as a spill-proof well or pipeline. accidents happen. and they will continue to happen regardless of what we're told by the

that means transcanada could have turned around ed and sold those easements to any pipeline company.ve been a pipeline company in iran china, whatever. the timetable now is the president essentially is going to get a bill on his desk from congress maybe on the 23rd or 24th of february. we'll have ten days to veto that bill which we are confident he'll do. will he veto the bill and also reject the presidential permit? he has to do both of those things at the same time but we could have a decision at the end of february or early march. >> what's the next legal step jane, for those who want the pipeline now that this judge has made the ruling? >> for nebraska this essentially is now headed back to the supreme court. really is only reason we lost in the supreme court on a technicality reason, meaning that landowners didn't have standing, they weren't injured yet by transcanada. now that they have, this case is going back to the supreme court. we feel very confident that they're going to win there, which means transcanada is back to square one. they will not have a route in nebraska or im

let's take a look at transcanada which is, of course, the pluckily-traded company -- publicly-tradedrding this. right now it's up a third of a percent, but it is much closer to its 52-week low. we have about 22 minutes before the closing bell. both the dow and the s&p on track for new record closes. think russell, too, and we're watching a tenth-in-a-row win for the nasdaq. nicole, this is a really important day, i think, except that it really is once again entirely fed driven, it feels, with a little bit of greece thrown in. >> right? and now obviously rate hikes are not anytime soon, pushed that off for a couple of meetings as you noted, records for the dow and s&p. in fact, we're sitting right near session highs going into the close, so the bulls are holding onto the ball. only five names in the dow 30 actually have down arrows, so it is pretty broad based as well. take a hook at some of names leading the dow, home depot, new high there. financials have done so well. people calm out with great sales numbers. a look at jpmorgan, up 2.7%, home depot, american express, verizon, ge. a

main reason is because there is at least 100,000 barrels of capacity or more, as guaranteed by transcanadaof the big challenges we have in north dakota is that we have constrain transportation out of north dakota for oil. you are seeing over 70% of north dakota's crude shipped by rail. we are grateful for real, we need all of the above, that it is not as safe. it is double of the greenhouse gas emissions moving it by rail. it is not as efficient, and in a market where there is $10 or less margin on a barrel of oil, type lines -- pipelines are important. we especially need that pi peline. we are americans and taking oil from venezuela to the gulf coast for their processing in the gulf coast, is one thing, canadian oil is another. i would much rather trade with our biggest trading partner, our friendliest neighbor, $2 billion worth of trade. wide-out we displace venezuelan oil with canadian oil? olivia: do agree that this will do much more for the canadian economy? >> i figure will be better for the canadian and comic, but that will do well regardless of where they process the oil. whether i

a month later the president says i reject the first application of transcanada the pipeline company,ey have to apply again. the oil is coming from up here. two pipelines check in the bert. the red line is the bert clipper. this is the keystone xl pipeline that's approved. we have tar sands oil coming to the east coast reef fineries. -- -- east coast refineries. it matters because by forcing it to come by rail we are raising the cost of the products that are distilled at those refineries. everything from gasoline to you name it is costing more than it ought to because it's being brought on expensive rail cars that are far less safe than a pipeline. why the president is doing this is beyond me. bill: supporters are saying the middle east is giving us heartburn and heartache and isis is doing what it's doing. every bit of energy independence helps america. even though this is just a small piece of that, it would help as well. that's what republicans and some of the democrats who support this are arguing. >> one other geopolitical point this would reduce our reliance on the hasty crude t
