Musk's tweet calling for more fossil fuel production was retweeted roughly 20,000 times in 30 minutes
Tesla co-founder and CEO Elon Musk called on the United States to increase its domestic oil output in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, while also acknowledging that his electric car company would be negatively affected by that move. "Hate to say it, but we need to increase oil & gas output immediately," Musk tweeted Friday. "Extraordinary times demand extraordinary measures."

Teslas (and most other vehicles) contain hundreds of pounds of plastic, and producing plastic requires oil.
Cheap oil helps everyone, even Musk.
He would just tell you it was Putin that did it.
“Musk needs to send that message to Bidens boss: AOC”
___
Biden in his SOTU speech tried very hard to show a distance from AOC & co. Though I doubt he was too successful in that.
It’s a normal measure...
BiXiden and his handlers are abnormal.
What do you think his factories run on? Rainbow colors?
This guy would make a decent Senator. And with his celeb status, maybe he could win in a blue state.
My memory is hazy but I believe the Keystone oil is for export and is not suitable for our refineries? Maybe someone else can chine in here. We’ve got a lot of energy industry folks on FR.
Musk would easily win election for POTUS if he was eligible. But maybe that is why he is not attacked. He’s not a threat to the Uniparty.
No, diesel does not cost $8.00 a gallon in California.
Musk is used to action AND competence taking on problems directly and with innovation.
His head would explode in congress - especially the senate.
He has not gotten to where he is with compromise and endless debate and nuance.
“I feel like asking him for the extra money I have to pay”
We need reparations from all Biden voters.
RV’ers will get crushed as well. People don’t usually plan for expensive gas when they make those decisions.
Already seeing some saying things like, “When you drive a gas-powered car, you’re riding with Putin.”
They aren’t going to let this crisis go to waste.

I’m working in Kali right now. Diesel is cheaper than gasoline. Weird.
Diesel only became higher than gasoline when the ultra-low sulfur requirements went into place. It used to always be cheaper.
The Keystone pipelineXL was to bring crude from Canada to Nebraska to then be sent down to Gulf to be refined.
So since Biden halted the building of XL that crude is now being shipped by rail(think Buffet here) to Nebr.
Riding with Putin
Biking with Biden
“Diesel only became higher than gasoline when the ultra-low sulfur requirements went into place”
They were supposed to get more Sulfur outta gas too. Did that happen or not?
When I bought my Diesel cars Diesel was cheaper than gas.
