Meanwhile, in Rome, G20 "leaders" are tackling the energy crisis.

Joe Biden, his spokeswoman Jen Psaki. and others in their orbit want foreign producers to drill more fossil fuels because for some reason we don't have enough energy over here.
Here's a humorous but sad statement from an "energy advisor" in the White House, as reported by the Daily Signal:
Nation in ‘Energy Crisis,’ White House Adviser Says
A top White House official said there was an “energy crisis” in the U.S. and urged foreign fossil-fuel producers to ramp up production to quell it.
“We see this as an energy crisis because this is not just natural gas prices that have been elevated, but crude oil is at very high levels at the moment … and gasoline prices in the United States today are at seven-year highs as natural gas peaks at the same time,” White House energy adviser Amos Hochstein remarked during a virtual event hosted by the International Energy Forum on Thursday. “So I think this is an energy crisis.”'
It's as if Biden didn't shut down drilling and pipelines over here.
That couldn't have caused the problems. It is probably Trump's fault. That is who they always blame.
It's as if Democrats aren't shooting for carbon zero by 2030 and trying to destroy anyone who produces and uses oil, natural gas and coal.

Biden is throwing darts at the board and missing. He has too many idiots telling him to do this and that, not caring about the consequences
Don’t you mean Hussein Obama and Susan Rice want more OPEC oil ?
I’m guessing Biden can’t even throw a dart.
Where Obama just told us to suck it up, Clueless Joe begs for help, neither one willing to consider the obvious solution of energy independence. Pathetic.
It wasn't one year ago.
Making OPEC great again.
Foreign producers are loving this and they are quite happy to see prices continue to rise. They aren’t going to save Biden.
Biden’s 16 executive orders on energy, plus his stoppage on public lands where energy companies have invested billions that is now frozen ensures high energy prices for the foreseeable future.
Prepare accordingly.
It would be funny to watch
OPEC will reduce production. Just wait and see.
Renewable energy is available from his diapers.
I think they will stick with their current program as they are quite happy with it and they can claim they aren’t the ones surprising anyone and causing a problem, Biden did that and Biden can own it.
Biden hasn’t even gotten to the good stuff yet, like filling up on odd-even days depending on your license plate, lowered speed limits, raising EPA gas mileage requirements to slow production of everything but econoboxes and EVs, and more!
Much more fun to come, this is all just beginning. Also gas prices are lagging the oil price because suppliers saw this coming and bought some good futures which have kept gas prices lower than otherwise. As those futures go off the books the price will move faster, it’s about 40 cents low right now for the current price by my calculations.

Depends use a lot of petrochemicals.
I’m involved with an oil and gas company seeking to drill 4 wells in southeast Utah. The Departement of Interior - Bureau of Land Managment- has had our drilling permit applications for 15 months, no permits. Native Americans seeking to drill on their own “sovereign” land. No fracking involved, existing oil producing area.
Just another way of transferring wealth out of the USA.
Which is the real goal.
Not that’s it’s any consolation but you are just one of many such applications gathering dust on purpose in D.C.
And yet people think the energy companies are going to “rush in” and produce because the price is high.
Will you need to resubmit due to a mispelling or uncrossed “t”? Disgusting.
People are starting to fill their home propane tanks for winter, wait until they see those bills.
