Breitbart ^ | 11/25/2021 | Penny Starr

In the final months of President Donald Trump’s presidency the Strategic Petroleum Reserve was in the spotlight as he tried to replenish it after years of neglect and at a time when oil was cheap.

But the Democrats cut it out of a bill it was included in, claiming it was a hit on Big Oil

I hope those Liberals who populate the North East are plenty cold this winter. They ALL need a ‘forever’ wake up call.

I heard Trump say the Oil Reserves were empty when he took office.

Interesting that every action that the Democraps take benefits China and at the same time is detrimental to America.

So, this flashback is telling us the Dems were this way all along, not just this year. Rotten, conniving, manipulative, self-enriching, crooked and anti-American?

Didn’t see that one coming./s

The Left made fun of Texas during the “great freeze” last winter when the Greenie power control system froze 100 people to death.

Now listen to them. Head Shake.

And the DC Freaks? I have no sympathy toward them.

It is Time to Restore the Constitution.

It is Time to DownSize DC!

IIRC, President Trump filled it to the brim.

No, what's going to happen if that occurs is that the Left will simply double-down and say we need more "renewable" energy sources.

Oil and gas has become so demonized because gutless pukes in the aforementioned industries and in the GOP have allowed it to be demonized and refused to refute the leftist narrative on this.

We simply do not have the infrastructure or grid to support a move to electrical vehicles while simultaneously abolishing or restricting oil and gas.

Sadly, millions of people are going to die or get herded into urban high-density areas, which is what the globalist elites and 2 party cartel wants anyway.

I can’t hate Brandon, there is nothing there TO hate.
I hate those behind him who are intent on destroying
our way of life.

A few days ago the headlines were all, Biden pleads with
OPEC to sell more oil to keep price down.

Only a moron would beg someone to not make a profit.
Either that or someone who is making a profit by
choking others.

Why would the oil sheiks sell their oil to us when all
they have to do is wait as the price goes up and
their profit increases with no effort on their part.

Somehow, we were energy independent under Trump
and now we stifle our own production and plead with our competitors ???

Good point........

Maybe they renounced their citizenship?

They seem to have difficulty meeting the obligations of American citizenship.

Thanks, but that’s not right.
Go back to Italy you crazy guy. But first look at your PM.
