I wrote earlier about rising prices concerning most Americans. 87% are worried about it, according to a new Fox survey, a significant number.
One of the things that people are most worried about is rising gas prices. A massive number — 84% — say that’s a problem for their families, with 50% saying it’s a “major” problem. Virtually everyone — 94% — thought such rising gas prices a problem for the country’s economy including 67% calling it a “major” problem.
Prices are up all over the country, but today they hit a truly unbelievable number in Gorda, California — $7.59 for a regular gallon of gas. Premium is nearly $8.50.
The average across the nation is still going up.

Home heating bills going into the winter are also expected to skyrocket, some by as much as 54%. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer decried this, indicting Joe Biden in the process.
Meanwhile, Joe Biden is concentrated on begging OPEC to pump more oil while shutting down things like the Keystone Pipeline.
Now, he’s also giving up on another option — the Willow Project, an oil and gas drilling project in Alaska that would have provided not only a lot of oil but thousands of jobs, as well. There was a court ruling against the project, despite there being an extensive review of any possible economic impact. The Biden Administration had previously said they would fight for the project. Now they’ve changed their mind and are not appealing the decision, making the project effectively dead, killing the drilling opportunity and all the jobs.
The entire congressional delegation from Alaska – Sens. Lisa Murkowski and Dan Sullivan and Rep. Don Young – have been vocal proponents of the project, arguing it would produce 100,000 barrels of oil per day, lead to $10 billion in government revenue and create 2,000 construction jobs and 300 permanent jobs. They also applauded the Biden administration after its brief defending Willow in May.
“This decision won’t do one thing to help the environment,” Sullivan said in a statement following the August ruling. “To the contrary, it further delays one of Alaska’s most strategic energy development projects, which will benefit our adversaries that produce oil, like Russia, Venezuela and Iran, whose environmental standards are some of the worst in the world.”
Now, it’s just one more thing that would help America that Biden has thrown under the bus while at the same time helping Russia’s oil dominance and foothold in the EU with his decision on Nord Stream 2 sanctions. He couldn’t do more if he were deliberately trying to hurt the United States.
By next spring millions of people will be sick or dead from the cold and no heating fuel.
All part of the Great Reset.
What I wouldn’t give to get within spitting distance of Bill Gates, George Soros, Warren Buffett, etc.
But I wouldn’t be spitting.
This winter families need to stick together financially and figuratively. Biden’s promise of a long dark winter will be upon us shortly.
meanwhile, reality might hit COP26 in Glasgow:
BBC - which has pretty much replaced covid with climate for several weeks - has the documents to prove it, and they are not happy. BBC are “climate” activists, not journalists:
***if nothing else, listen to the interview with Dr. MS Santosh, senior scientist, Coal and Mineral Processing Group, Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, an Institute close to the Indian Government and the only one mentioned in the leaked documents re coal. it is a classic. he doesn’t back down. BBC’s Iqbal is ropable.
FIRST 14 MINUTES: Justin Rowlatt, BBC climate editor on papers leaked to BBC from Greenpeace, on multiple nations lobbying to water down COP26 anti-fossil fuel, anti-meat agenda.
***FROM 6m33s: includes BBC’s arrogant and obnoxious Razia Iqbal interviewing Indian senior scientist from institute named in Greenpeace-leaked documents, stating coal will remain the mainstay of Indian energy production for decades to come.
AUDIO: 52m59s: 21 Oct: BBC World Service: Newshour: Documents reveal countries lobbying to change climate report
Presenter: Razia Iqbal
Saudi Arabia, Australia and Japan are among the countries asking the United Nations to play down the need to move rapidly away from fossil fuels. Leading scientists in India warn that coal is likely to remain as a mainstay of energy production for decades.

21 Oct: BBC: COP26: Document leak reveals nations lobbying to change key climate report
By Justin Rowlatt & Tom Gerken
It also shows some wealthy nations are questioning paying more to poorer states to move to greener technologies.
This “lobbying” raises questions for the COP26 climate summit in November.
The leak reveals countries pushing back on UN recommendations for action and comes just days before they will be asked at the summit to make significant commitments to slow down climate change and keep global warming to 1.5 degrees.
The leaked documents consist of more than 32,000 submissions made by governments, companies and other interested parties to the team of scientists compiling a UN report designed to bring together the best scientific evidence on how to tackle climate change...
The authority of these reports derives in part from the fact that virtually all the governments of the world participate in the process to reach consensus.
The comments from governments the BBC has read are overwhelmingly designed to be constructive and to improve the quality of the final report.
The cache of comments and the latest draft of the report were released to Greenpeace UK’s team of investigative journalists, Unearthed, which passed it on to BBC News...
One senior Australian government official rejects the conclusion that closing coal-fired power plants is necessary, even though ending the use of coal is one of the stated objectives the COP26 conference...
A senior scientist from India’s Central Institute of Mining and Fuel Research, which has strong links to the Indian government, warns coal is likely to remain the mainstay of energy production for decades because of what they describe as the “tremendous challenges” of providing affordable electricity. India is already the world’s second biggest consumer of coal...
“Our processes are designed to guard against lobbying - from all quarters”, the IPCC told the BBC. “The review process is (and always has been) absolutely fundamental to the IPCC’s work and is a major source of the strength and credibility of our reports.
VIDEO: Tony Blair on climate change: “Even though the challenge is immense, there really isn’t an alternative to dealing with it”
Professor Corinne le Quéré of the University of East Anglia, a leading climate scientist who has helped compile three major reports for the IPCC, has no doubts about the impartiality of the IPCC’s reports.
She says all comments are judged solely on scientific evidence regardless of where they come from.
“There is absolutely no pressure on scientists to accept the comments,” she told the BBC. “If the comments are lobbying, ***if they’re not justified by the science, they will not be integrated in the IPCC reports.”...
Brazil and Argentina, two of the biggest producers of beef products and animal feed crops in the world, argue strongly against evidence in the draft report that reducing meat consumption is necessary to cut greenhouse gas emissions...
Both countries call on the authors to delete or change some passages in the text referring to “plant-based diets” playing a role in tackling climate change, or which describe beef as a “high carbon” food. Argentina also asked that references to taxes on red meat and to the international “Meatless Monday” campaign, which urges people to forgo meat for a day, be removed from the report.
The South American nation recommends “avoiding generalisation on the impacts of meat-based diets on low-carbon options”, arguing there is evidence that meat-based diets can also reduce carbon emissions.
On the same theme, Brazil says “plant-based diets do not for themselves guarantee the reduction or control of related emissions” and maintains the focus of debate should be on the levels of emissions from different production systems, rather than types of food...

as with the radio interview, Rowlatt has a hack from the Climnategate University - Uni of East Anglia - and Tony Blair (not someone from the ruling Conservative Party). what a joke.
“ He couldn’t do more if he were deliberately trying to hurt the United States.”
His masters are.
“By next spring millions of people will be sick or dead from the cold and no heating fuel.”
And from the vaccine, by some accounts.
My best friend was forced to get the vaccine by his employer and now he has massive heart damage and is dying.
We had plenty of oil and the ability to pump it out of the ground (creating jobs) under Trump, and the only thing that changed January 20 at noon was the will to do so. Democrats lie about everything they do because it is all meant to destroy America from within. I watched a video on how their massive spending Bill is a Trojan horse, and you can check it out top of page at Whatfinger News in crawler link. The lie Dims keep repeating about it not costing anything is just precious. Their patrons the communist Chinese aren’t cutting oil consumption, and Dims aren’t pushing for them to do so either.
You also need to practice your 2A rights, because after he softens us up with cold and hunger Xiden is coming for those too.
They deserve spitting, of one kind or another.
The communists know how to steal elections and get away with it. Did you miss that in 2020? For the record it wasn’t just the presidency. Those razor thing margins in the House and Senate aren’t an accident.
Still not convinced that Biden is the Marxist Democrat’s disposable “resident” at 1600? This 11 second clip will help!

“The midterms are going to wipe the libs off the map.”
How many times has that been said before? No matter how bad it gets, that doesn’t come true.
Not unless something happens with voting
Maybe carry a screwdriver just in case?
So sorry to hear that. There are thousands of stories like that which are being hidden from the people.
Biden said before he was elecfed he would do this, the responsibly lays with the stupid people who voted for him.
I had my first run in with clots in the lungs Tuesday morning.
Fine one moment and feeling at death’s door the next.
Procedure yesterday and went well. Been under observation since and should go home today.
Two long French fries came out.
No vaccine in me.
