The undying shame of this pathological loathing for fossil fuels is that America is sitting on a superabundance of it.
Energy secretary Jennifer Granholm, the laughing face of Joe Biden's not-so-funny energy policy, told CNN's Dana Bash on Sunday that Americans' home-heating costs are going up this winter. Interviewed on Bloomberg Radio a few days earlier, a question implying that she, the secretary of energy, might possibly have some ideas about fixing soaring gas prices had Granholm in stitches. "Would that I had the magic wand on this," she said, once she finished laughing. You see, Dana, oil is controlled by a cartel called OPEC, and where else can we get it?
We can be grateful Granholm doesn't have a magic wand: just imagine the additional nightmares she would conjure. Still, there had to be some magic — black magic, that is — in how team Biden changed us, practically overnight, from a net energy exporter before January 20 to an energy orphan today pathetically begging OPEC for "more oil, please."
Of course our current skyrocketing fuel prices aren't OPEC's fault, because they're the direct result of deliberate Biden actions meant to reverse Donald Trump's triumphant achievement of American energy independence. On Biden's first day in office, he killed the Keystone XL Pipeline, then later banned oil exploration on federal lands. Then he picked as energy secretary a woman who admitted in 2016 that the real goal of climate activists is to do "everything possible to keep fossil-fuel energy in the ground."
Last week, Biden was in Glasgow confessing America's climate crimes. Then, as soon as he got back, he launched a new attack, this one on Line 5, a critical fuel pipeline that runs 645 miles from Superior, Wisconsin through Michigan to its terminus in Sarnia, Ontario.

This winter could be the Biden regime genocide by withholding energy to keep people from freezing. Just like Stalen starved the Ukrainians during the winter famine.
When oil prices spiked in the past, Democrats held hearings about gouging and whined about the impact on the poor and those on fixed incomes.
Now, the Democrats intentionally create the high oil prices and do not care one bit about the poor and those on fixed incomes.
This is how governments get violently overthrown.
They seem to want a real insurrection.
Our entire military depends on it.
They run our homes and businesses.
The idea that solar and wind can support the population is ridiculous.
And in the end....there is absolutely zero evidence that lowering Co2 will change the climate. It doesn't even make sense.
I'm writing a book...."My Cow Farts and the Grass Beneath His Feet Turns Green."
Biden is waging war against conservatives
Biden is waging war against our freedoms
Biden is waging war against our ability to be self serving
Biden is waging war against our finances, using the IRS
Biden is waging war against the United States.
And Biden is illegitimate.
Remove him!!
Biden Is Waging Total War against the American PEOPLE.
biden is a senile old man. Whoever is running the show from behind the curtains is unknown and that is the scary part.
Keystone? Fracking? ANWR?
Tw@t!
Boiling water caused steam to power the original engines that moved the trains and boats and opened the world.
Solar power is great when the sun shines, but there is night and cloud cover and snow and dirt that covers the solar panels.
“...Now, the Democrats intentionally create the high oil prices and do not care one bit about the poor and those on fixed incomes....”
They’re not the “democrats of yesteryear”, they’re full-blown marxist/communists that are hellbent on totally destroying our country and everything we hold dear.
The sooner the People realize this, the sooner the “corrections’ can be made.
He’s not doing it alone, and as many others have remarked, I have doubts he’s capable of running anything.
This cadre of change agents is causing mayhem on purpose. it is not accidental incompetence here and there, it is sabotage in the open. The desired end result is pain and sufferning, not peace and prosperity. The more pain, the more people turn to government for a fix.
Granholm’s “magic wand” remark reminds me of Obama. He can’t improve the economy, he says, because he doesn’t have a magic wand.
It’s pure BS. Trump made policy changes (not a magic wand) and the US was made into a self-sufficient supply, with surplus left over to export.
I hope but am not optimistic that as the government drives the proseperity out of the country, the people come to realize that the government is their enemy.
Biden is NOT in charge. This is the vindictive Barack Obama who is running things. He is the hateful force whose communist disciples are actually causing all of this damage to the USA. This is the illegitimate third term of Obama after a stolen presidential election.
I believe they are intentionally provoking it.
People involved in fraud to get xiden elected should be looking over their shoulder every where they go.
Like Chairman Xi in China, President Biden is waging war on his own nation to put socialism in control over freedom and capitalism
Biden is a Domestic Enemy
“All of this inflation, much of which is supply line driven and in no way Biden’s fault, is an indication of a recovering economy and life getting back to normal. It’s a positive.”
