It's Time For US To Re-Establish Energy Dominance
Tilting at Windmills ^ | February 28, 2022, | Tom Knighton

For days now, we’ve been riveted to stories coming out of Ukraine. Some of them may be total BS, some may be inflated, or something else.

Misinformation in war is nothing new, after all, nor is propaganda.

However, as the entire world watches and picks their side—most Americans seem inclined to side with Ukraine, but it’s not universal—we’re also asking just what we can do to keep Russia in check.

There is no climate crisis. The radical leftists are in charge.

So, why don’t you do something to them rather than just whine?

Same reason he won’t stop the invasion of the USA.

His masters want America weakened.

Come on. You can shout it from the rooftop and people will just say this guy’s crazy. That’s where we are. We can only hope prices at the gas pump open peoples eyes. Count on the prices going down just before November just like the masks coming off.

I did. I also commented on this forum, I hope in a way more relevant to the article than you, though I admit it was brief.

To prevent the “whining”, perhaps I can expand. I notice a growing tendency to appreciate Trump’s policies, or rather their effects, without crediting the man or the policies. This article, somehow, wishes to continue Trump’s energy independence, undoubtably beneficial to them, without the man or other policies behind it. This, after a blatantly fraudulent election that ejected all of them.

I will also point out that your post demonstrates an extremely juvenile attempt around here to view this forum as anything other than a site for exchanging information and commentary. If you think you are “taking action” with your post, you are in the wrong place.

Yes. It was. Party, it seems, had little to do with the fraud.

NEVER in ten million years will Brandon say we much throw off the environmental shackles he put on energy production and increase production.

Instead, due to the science on climate change, we mush reduce our fossil fuel consumption even more, and advance to energy alternatives even if it’s a major sacrifice and we have 100 years of product in the ground enabling a slow and steady change to alternatives.

These people are climate activists, don’t expect anything different.

Please show me any similar articles that make the statement of energy dominance from jan 2017 thru jan 2021.

If we really wanted to whack Russia, this would be how to do it.

——This, after a blatantly fraudulent election that ejected all of them.-—

And yet, the reality is that statement is untrue. No effort was made to overturn the fraud. No evidence was presented and upheld in any court of law. No effort was made to find arrest indict and imprison those said to be responsible for the fraud.

So, as far as history records, Biden was elected.

Trump refused to fight his enemies and they destroyed him

He was a truly great President but somehow he lacked the will to fight for his own survival

He is now President Emeritus

I consider the “F” curves of election night blatantly fraudulent. That, alone, is enough for me. All could see this, even the author.

I can’t follow the point of your rough retelling of what is now history. All who accepted election night as “good enough” got the candidate they wanted. Doubly so, if they accepted a lack of any investigation or involvement of the courts. Biden’s candidacy was known - he would do the opposite of Trump, which is what we are getting. Ergo, if you accepted the election, you accepted the reversal of Trump’s policies. The author just wants a carve-out for what has bitten him, while keeping the rest.

I agree with your assessment that Trump did not fight sufficiently, on many fronts and since the day he took office. It does not bode well for his return to that office.

Hate to tell y’all but Energy Dominance and Independence was always a silly, contorted definition.

In 2019 the US pumped about 12.7 million bpd of oil. Consumption that year was 21 million bpd. So “independence” meant we had to buy 8 mbpd from somebody.

The definition contorted coal and nat gas as inclusion, neither of which move food from farms to grocery stores. Diesel trucks and only diesel trucks do that.
