How about asking Warren Buffett to ship it by rail to there?

Declare a National Emergency and remove energy concerns from individual states. THE SPICE AND WATER MUST FLOW.

When the GOP let the DNC take their turn at the midterms the pipeline will be stopped. All will be required to buy battery cars and like it.

Meanwhile " Big Inch" a 24" pipeline was built from Texas to Linden, New Jersey with the first order for pipe made July 2, 1942 and the first oil reaching Illinois by the end of that year.Oil reached a terminal in eastern Pennsylvania in August, 1943

A longer 20 inch line for refined products was started in 1943, and product was delivered March 2, 1944.

Too bad equipment to do that kind of pipe laying apparently doesn't exist now.

““In a sense, the California policy is working to make gas more expensive to get people to switch to electric vehicles and hybrid cars,” he said.”

So electric cars aren’t a better option financially for the peasants?

Though 2025, AZ usually ranked 7th highest in gas prices, although that rank has improved lately. We depend on two major pipelines. One from Long Beach and one from El Paso. Not good. In about 2002, one of them broke down for a week and it wasn’t fun.

California
Washington
Alaska

$12 Gas! Newsom Just Took California Back to 1865!

$12 gas isn’t a prediction…

It’s math!

California just shut down the San Pablo pipeline. 100 trucks now haul oil across Kern County EVERY DAY — $5 to $10 per barrel just to MOVE it.

You know who else trucks oil because their pipelines are destroyed?

Iraq. Syria. Libya.

War zones. Failed states.

California did this to ITSELF.

34 refineries in 1990. Seven today. No pipelines in. No pipelines out. We’re a 40-million-person energy island — and you’re trapped here paying for every mile.

In 1865, America figured out trucking oil was insane. Built pipelines. Never looked back.

Newsom’s California just went backwards 160 years.

And YOU’RE paying for his legacy.

📍 In this video:
→ The 1865 comparison that will make you sick
→ Oil company CEO exposes the collapse (Steve Leighton, EMB Resources)
→ Why $12 gas is now inevitable
→ California’s “broke aunt” moment
→ What happens when the last refinery shuts down

$6 is coming. $8 is coming. $12 is coming.

( If I didn’t know better I’d think the CCP bought politicians in East bejing ( formerly known as Sacramento) were collapsing the state on purpose .

Will Republicans be pounding the table over this — or cowering before the Democrats?

I take it that AZ gas is piped from CA, where from?

Also, where is automotive diesel coming from?

Thanks — just curious in AZ.

It’s ironic and sad that the most radically “new” state that introduced all kinds of marxist ideas disguised as “educational innovations” and “freedoms” is now behind the times. High prices, people streaming for the exit routes, massive corruption, filth and homelessness, censorship, misuse of natural resources, backwards thinking.
