Let me guess. Chinese ships will take up the offer.

This whole thing stinks of Burisma level corruption.

[SkyDancer]

And look how vulnerable we are to cyber attacks.

[mountainlion]

Didn't the demonicrats stop some cleanup crews during the BP oil spill by this act?

[Oldeconomybuyer]

More chaos. The theme for the JoHo administration.

[a fool in paradise]

My understanding is that in Europe the companies go ahead and pay these ransoms. Maybe even some US cities do.

[Mr. K]

Weren’t the democrats give $4Trillion to fix ‘infrastructure’ 8 years ago?

[nascarnation]

Caliph Baraq got re-elected with $4 gas, but gas lines are election poison IMHO.

[Sirius Lee]

Chinese ships will take up the offer.

Yup. jao xiden is selling out America to china faster than all the presidents for the past 50 years not named Reagan and Trump combined.

[EBH]

If they are moving to do this, then this is a much, much bigger deal than we are aware of at this point.

[Pilgrim's Progress]

Everything is being orchestrated from the top down . . . why? to smuggle in material to be used by terrorists to dismantle the normalcy of America so that it can be remade in the eyes of the globalists. Prepare folks, these are all signs of the Lord’s soon return for His Bride - His church. It is high time for you to get saved by calling upon the name of the Lord, not Mary, not the saints, not the church of your choice, and not your so-called “good works” which are all “filthy rags” in God’s sight.

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord SHALL be saved. You do NOT want to enter the period of time that is coming known by Bible-believers as the “Tribulation” period.

[Empire_of_Liberty]

That was my first thought.

We have a security problem, so we’re going to bring in the Chinese. Hell, how about the Russians?

Unfortunately, public skoooling has made American’s too stupid to notice the idiocy.

[bk1000]

We’ve got gas lines today. Many stations are empty. Thanks, Joe. 🤬

[Fiji Hill]

The Jones Law Blues--different law, but same Jones.

[PghBaldy]

They really are taking their time dealing with this.

[pepsi_junkie]

Here we go,took Biden about four months to totally wreck the US economy. Coming soon to a gas station near you:

[Semper Vigilantis]

How many ChiComs can you fit in a shipping container? How many shipping containers can you convince Xiden to disperse along the eastern seaboard?

[RockyTx]

time for the oil company shills to check in.

where are you?

[hotsteppa]

This all seems orchestrated.

1. Hacker attack shuts down pipeline
2. Gas shortage causing line ups
3. Waive law to allow non-US transport between ports

Looks like a duck and all that.

[teevolt]

And what is pissing me off is the GOP is silent, no attacks, no solutions. Just look at GOP twitter. About 20 posts since last Friday about the stupid jobs report. A couple about Kamala not visiting border, as if that would solve anything. A gawd awful Mothers Day tweet about getting women back to work. They are terrible.
