Sources exclusively told POLITICO that President-elect Donald Trump is looking to revive the Keystone XL oil pipeline on his first day back in the White House even though no companies are trying to build it anymore. POLITICO’s Ben Lefebvre breaks down why Trump wants to revive the pipeline and whether his plan is feasible. Plus, FERC issued a new version of its sweeping transmission rule, and this year’s global climate talks are sidestepping a previous historic pledge.
