Biden* Moves to Completely Screw You at the Pump
Quote:Just days ago, Joe Biden was insisting that his climate change provisions weren’t causing higher gas prices (see Joe Biden Goes Full Ron Burgundy in Reality-Bending Speech on Gas Prices). You see, according to the White House, canceling Keystone XL and limiting oil and gas leases in the name of fighting global warming doesn’t actually have an effect on gas prices.
Of course, most of us realize that’s a complete lie because we understand basic economics. and while Biden may be senile, he’s cognizant enough to understand what he’s doing. When you lower the supply and make oil more expensive, you end up with higher prices at the pump. In fact, the current hike in gas prices tracks with the rise in the price of oil almost perfectly.
Yet, just as prices looked to be going down due to a drop in the cost of oil caused by COVID-19 hysteria (oil dropped over $10 a barrel today), Biden is making a move to get those prices headed up again.
Enter some breathless media member insisting that the president doesn’t control the price of gas. In some sense, that’s true, but Biden absolutely can make the problem better or worse. By raising the costs to drill on public leases, the president is directly influencing the cost of gasoline, and not in a good way. You will absolutely pay more at the pump if the White House raises the costs to drill in the name of fighting climate change.
Besides, how does this make any sense at all? Global demand is global demand. You are going to go fill your car up this week. The only question is how much it’s going to cost you. Does pumping oil in Saudi Arabia that will be burned in Texas somehow result in fewer emissions than if it was pumped in North Dakota? The answer is: of course not. We all share the same planet, last I checked, so even if you are a big believer in climate change, you are not fighting it by raising costs on American consumers.
In fact, if one is concerned about environmentalism, you should prefer oil be drilled domestically, as US laws and regulations result in far cleaner extraction. Yet, we live in this silly moment where Democrats insist we can’t be energy independent while at the same time begging OPEC to pump more oil. That strategy, whatever the goal may be, makes no sense whatsoever.
Meanwhile, your elected betters simply don’t care about the pain they are causing because to them, this isn’t about actually lowering emissions. Rather, it’s about mindlessly virtue signaling and punishing normal Americans for their supposed sins against the climate. Inflation is out of control, yet in the midst of that financial hardship hitting families, Biden won’t even let them have slightly lower gas prices.
This man’s entire presidency has been one big middle finger to the middle-class. Every step of the way, the president has managed to destroy the prospects of success and prosperity that were dumped into his do-nothing lap by his predecessor. He just won’t get out of the way, and that’s not a coincidence at this point.

RE: Biden* Moves to Completely Screw You at the Pump
Biden* is deep into his Alzheimer's and really is not aware of what he is doing. He simply reads the scripts put on the teleprompter by the hidden people that are TRULY running the country.
The hidden people are fixated on running America into the dirt by collapsing the economy, making America less safe, totally abandoning the southern border, making America energy dependent while driving oil and gasoline costs higher, using COVID as a means of control, not taking on China's aggression, etc.

I think JB is probably 3-5 years away from dying from the disease. It'll keep getting worse...thanks Dem fools and MSM for ruining our country for power.

I think your timeline for Biden*'s demise is fairly accurate. Once the diagnosis is made and the signs of the A.D. is outwardly/obviously visible, it tends to accelerate quickly.
Regarding Biden* currently occupying the Oval Office, I think this works very well for the REAL decision-makers manipulating policies behind the scenes. Their problem is Harris is such an absolute disaster that they might have to keep Biden* as the "figurehead" until he literally is unable to even read words off the teleprompter at all. Obviously he's having trouble now; I mean when Biden* reaches the point of just staring at the teleprompter and not being able to form the syllables to pronounce the words.
Those who postulated that the decision-makers might get rid of Harris before Biden* so they can install their VP choice - such as Hillary or Susan Rice or whomever - that they REALLY intend to escalate up to POTUS about 4-6 months later. So this could be a "back door" way to get Hillary in the Oval Office - dump Kamala and insert Hillary as VP. Then get rid of Biden* sometime next summer.
There is one thing this is undeniable - whoever is the REAL decision-maker(s) hiding behind Biden*, there is zero doubt those people TRULY detest/hate/loathe the United States of America. They are doing a seriously good job tearing it apart.
The next elected POTUS in 2024 will have an extremely difficult rebuild job ahead of him/her. That includes getting the citizens to believe/trust the Administration actually supports the USA and its citizens.
No one will ever disagree again with the premise that elections have consequences and STOLEN ELECTIONS HAVE SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES.

If the damn RINOs in congress had exposed the first "impeachment" for the sham that it was, from the beginning, the rest probably would not have happened.

it still wouldn’t have made a difference with the non embracing MSM/RNC that were in power at the time…

It's funny how the Biden jock sniffers swear that he can't control gas prices, but remain silent on the fact that his policies CAN and DO influence them tremendously.
