Susan Rice ordered to sell $2.7M stake in oil pipeline company after project moves forward
[NYP] President Biden’s adviser Susan Rice is being ordered to sell a $2.7 million stake in the oil pipeline company Enbridge — after the Biden administration decided to allow the firm’s Line 3 pipeline project.

The Office of Government Ethics ordered Rice to divest from the company on July 9, according to filings first reported by The Daily Poster.

Although Biden has broadly taken action against oil pipelines, most notably canceling the Keystone XL oil pipeline, his administration has continued to allow the Line 3 project, which would bring Canadian oil through Minnesota to Wisconsin.

Environmental activists oppose the Line 3 project, but the cause has received far less national attention than other pipelines.

Last month, Biden administration officials indicated they would not withdraw permission for Line 3 in a major boon for the company.

#1 The bigger money is in working for government--not investing in pipelines. Check with the big guy and son to get pointers on how it's done.

#2 How does a government employee acquire that much (and more) money?

#3 /\ Excellent question! Can I safely assume ENB was just one entry in her portfolio.

I'm even more curious about the massive accumulation of wealth of her former boss Soetoro. I'm discounting personal ambition, family inheritances, Federal Thrift Savings Plan, and book sales.
