Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy, tweeted on Monday that the average gas price in some U.S. cities will reach $5 a gallon "in the next couple of weeks."

Which is exactly what they want.

President Trump said he could see them driving up oil over $200 a barrel

[Bon of Babble]

Already here in Commie - fornia.

[who knows what evil?]

Drill and frack.

I didn’t invade Ukraine. But this imbecile DC junta is sanctioning me.

[The Louiswu]

Russia invades and Americans pay.

[deek69]

Beat me to it. In the Bay Area it has been a few weeks

Not much gets past these guys!

[OttawaFreeper]

To get rid of bad Keynesian/Democrat policies, you have to strictly enforce them.

[null and void]

Which is exactly what they want.

More like "It's exactly half of what they want."

$5 a gallon "in the next couple of weeks."

Lucky for Biden, the Ukraine distracts from our enormous domestic problems.

[unixfox]

Time to spin up those wind turbines!

Why
Cancel the pipeline cancellation, build the pipelines, open up federal lakes to drilling etc etc and our oil output jumps up again and prices drop.
Dementia has managed to drop US oil production by a massive 1 million barrels a day in one short year.
Well done Joe Dementia for an excellent job of destruction and mayhem.

All Biden and democraps faults. All of it.

[shotgun]

If it does, hopefully it will put the final nail in the Democrats coffin and end that godless party once and for all.

The american people wont care about 5 gas, we saved travel and entertainment costs for the past 2 years and credit cards are far from tapped. Certainly will break the rest of the world so much more quickly, oil supply will not be a problem... it is a spike.

The expensive fertilizer in the spring is a real problem. And that risk is covered by farmers and externalized to commodity traders. Not as much for the US because counter to coverage, the imported fertilizer can be skimped on and more area under production gives the same output. Those fields that were going to be paid to not grow are not going to take that deal this year.

I accepted a twofold reality after the election:

1. I’ll soon be paying $70 to fill my Honda,

2. There will soon be a rash of EV fires.

Which is somewhere between 25% - 50% more than we are currently importing from Russia per day.
