I wouldn’t exactly call Biden’s oil and gas policies treason.
American Thinker ^ | 3 Feb, 2022 | James Mullin

But as Sherlock Holmes once sagely said, when you eliminate all possibilities, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.

This weekend I heard Congresswoman Comrade Tlaib’s trial balloon that Biden needs to reinstitute (Obama’s) restrictions on U.S. oil and gas exports. As the sheer insanity of that platform permeated my brain, I took a step back and thought about what this past year of Democrat/Left policy-making has wrought in the energy/financial sector alone.

The phrase, cui bono, kept coming to mind on a geopolitical scale. It is certainly the stuff of conspiracy theorists to think that the Democrat/Left is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Moscow/Beijing, Inc., but it is worthwhile to ponder the following:

I. On his very first day in office, Biden issued an executive order killing the American/Canadian Keystone Pipeline, along with other orders restricting drilling, fracking, exporting. And don’t for a second assume this was Biden’s executive order. You’ll be guilty of not seeing the strings, whether from within his administration or without.

A. A lower world supply of fossil fuels immediately causes higher prices for both oil and everything that depends on it—which means, everything in America:

1. That includes 50% higher payments to/profits for Russia for their oil/gas than in 2018. Venezuela and Iran profit as well.

2. Canadian oil now starts moving west to Vancouver and the Far East, not south to US refineries and export terminals.

3. Increased oil prices, combined with the federal government printing money in virtually unlimited quantities means that crippling inflation returns to the US after a nearly 40-year absence.

I think millions of Americans have come to the conclusion this author is dancing around.

This was a "beyond stupid" move. Not only did he kill the Keystone Pipeline, but 9 billion dollars work had already been done on the project! What complete stupidity/sabotage!

The only thing remaining is treason, and the purpose can only be to destroy this nation.

Treason?

Selling one’s soul to madmen who ignorantly clamor for 0 energy is not treason.

It is corruption in an existential form. The solution is to exterminate the corrupt who hold title to the City States. Ten Thousand is a nice round number and a good start

The goal is to create as much chaos and misery that the American public would welcome more government control in order to just make it stop. The government creates the problems and then offers the solutions. Things haven’t changed.

I agree 100%.

Why have no impeachment proceeding began? Why have we as a nation of people who discourage actions and activities that are inimical to our country and its people ignoring Biden and his criminal cronies? I think most of us do not think promiscuity by any so-called sex, philandering, robbing less fortunates, criminalizing absolutely non criminal activities,lieing, discouraging normal medical proactive work , etc.is inexcusable. Teaching “WOKE” is in itself inimical to our societal basically Christian views.

Every day that I live I regret not going to a conservative college such as Hillsdale (and taking rigerous courses in out nation’s history, political governance, etc) instead of going to the what are now known as liberal “institutions”. This whole process of “Woke” has been going one since I taught graduate students...I became aware of it at UNM. I just didn’t have sense enough to think “it wasn’t me”.

Biden’s huge dishonesty from the first day he was in office to the media’s consorting and learning from the communists (never tell the truth...make it up if you don’t like what you read )...I would have joined a group responding to that
BS. As a veteran and exPOW I am absolutely furious about what has occurred with our military and the the Covid vaccine being a requirement for retention.

We must now concentrate on salvaging as much as we can. Making teaching children from home or “Christian”schools is a beginning, emphasizing to each and every child how wonderful it is to be an American and point out the ways we are vulnerable and encourage them to think, analyze and respond.

I just cannot understand how our legal system can overlook what is actually happening. THE USA is not a 3rd world nation but it is rapidly becoming one due to sloth of people who can change it back to a balanced course...determined by our decent judges, and decent well educated population not sucked in by the socialists or communists.

IF I wasn’t so old and enfeebled by MS, etc. I would do all I can to institute a program reclaim our country if it wasn’t already ready for selfdestruction.

I still think enough states have enough gumption to secede and stand ready to rebel, erecting fences if we must to disallow entry of people not believing in the absolute worth of our unique Constitution.

Xiden is a malicious evil scumbag who wants people to suffer. He doesn’t care who he hurts and he certainly wants to mortally harm this country.

Nobody is more bullish on oil and gas than Joe Biden.

If the goal is to decrease consumption of evil carbon, he’s winning the game by driving up the price.

Yesterday I was encouraged by Governor DeSantis stating that they would investigate the illegal invasion into Florida, and bring charges against the transportation contractors, hotels etc., who profit from this scheme.

We obviously will not hold politicians accountable, but the idea of holding the contractors, hotels to account is a good one. This practice of moving illegal aliens across state lines is certainly not legal.

Higher prices create oil ‘jobs’ here. There is always a trade off. American shale is so efficient that it put drilling opportunities out of work, combined with OPEC production.

Democrat/Left is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Moscow/Beijing, Inc.

Haven’t found any data the disproves that nor has anyone else.

Treason, corruption or incompetence doesn’t matter. Impeach and convict this Biteme guy before he gets us into WWIII.

Anybody who still believes the government is the solution to any problem, is delusional.
