President Joe Biden said the ban is a 'powerful blow to Putin's war machine' during White House remarks
The ban will be levied by the US alone without European Union allies, which rely more on Russian energy
Biden used their reliance on Russian oil and gas as a reason to accelerate the move toward clean energy, which he said 'will mean that no one has to worry about price at the gas pump in the future'
American markets only bought 3.5 percent of their crude oil from Russia last year, with most from Canada
Domestic gas prices have skyrocketed since Russia launched an unprovoked attack on Ukraine in late Feb But the crisis has still exacerbated US gas prices, which reached a US-wide record average of $4.17 per gallon
The American Auto Association released a series of tips to help Americans 'conserve' fuel on Monday
Meanwhile US officials have been looking at Venezuela and Saudi Arabia as potential sellers to fill the gap
Republican Senator Lindsey Graham said going to authoritarian Venezuela for oil is 'the height of insanity'
Democrat Senator Jon Tester said 'We shouldn’t be advancing other countries who don’t share our values'
More than 7 in 10 Americans still say they'd support a ban on Russian oil, a new poll released Tuesday shows The United Kingdom is expected to levy its own ban on Russian oil, with a ban on its natural gas still in talks

Biden continues to poop in our pants to own da russkies.
Are the Mid-terms drawing near?
Was it’s demonic lips somewhat moving?
The demon was lying...just like it’s Big Daddy in hell, the Father of lies.
They come to steal, kill and destroy.
“Can’t wait till November.”
Why? The dems stole the 2020 election and they will steal the 2022 election just the same. Definition of insanity: Voting over and over again hoping to not lose to fraud.
True. But even stolen elections have consequences. This has enabled Lying Joe to speed up the destruction of the U.S. Exponally.
Brandon leads again with another Whopper-ass Lie.
Everything this Junta does is a Gigantic Lie.
It’s up to $4.40 here in Berks County(Pa).

Now tell me how much Gold Russia has.
Irrelevant? How?
Of course Brandon is pumping more oil than Trump in his first year, because Trump hadn't had time for his Executive Orders to be fully implemented.
Sorry, I don’t speak stupid.
Biden is irrelevant and did nothing.
Exxon, Shell, total etc already quit operations in Russia and ceased buying Russian oil and gas before Biden pretended to act
A full tank
lasts me about a week
The same people who hyped Russiagate ignored warnings by the head of NATO & Hillary Clinton that Russia was financing activists to block nat gas production
The result was Putin's stranglehold over Europe's energy supplies, more coal-burning, & the worst energy crisis in 50 years pic.twitter.com/uiZXRF5WmW— Michael Shellenberger (@ShellenbergerMD) March 7, 2022
Great point. In Trump’s first year, the Obama-Biden policies were having more continuing effects than in Trump’s last year.
The acorn does not fall far from the tree. Lying Joe’s father Satan is the father of lies and a murderer from the Beginning. Yet he is America’s choice. Proof of that is that he is in the White House and Donald J. Trump is not.
Biden has dementia. That is not good.

You just explained how.
The comparison would be how much did it drop under Biden.
