Although many Americans may prefer that the U.S. stay out of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the brewing violence and political fallout are already hurting their wallets.

Sadly this isn’t going to happen as dementia Joe has sold out to the Greens.
The US had become energy independent until the Destructocrats stole the election and deliberately torpedoed the energy production.
