Joe Biden Blames ‘Putin’s Price Hike’ on Gas After Banning Russian Oil Imports
Breitbart ^ | 03/08/2022 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 03/08/2022 10:42:42 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

President Joe Biden announced his decision to ban oil imports from Russia at the White House on Tuesday, just days after his administration argued against the idea.

“We will not be part of subsidizing Putin’s war,” Biden said, painting the decision as a moral one after Russian president Vladimir Putin escalated his war in Ukraine.

I sometimes wonder if the only part of his brain that’ still working is the stem. It seems like his mouth is direct wired to his brain stem.

Oh, but we are subsidizing Putin's war effort. $200/barrel oil benefits Putin much more than $20/barrel oil.

If we were serious, we'd be flooding the oil market right now. Biden's actions tell me he's either not serious or just plain stupid.

Joe Biden Blames ‘Putin's Price Hike’ on Gas

There was no “Putin Price Hike”
Price of oil went up in trading in the Mercantile exchange in New York, Chicago, London etc
That's free markets working.
Suck it up Joe Dementia.

Low IQ Joe and the Dems are all personally responsible for the action of the Russians. The US began paying for Russian military activities when they cutoff the Keystone pipeline and began spending billions on buying oil from the Russians. Putin’s military activities were paid for. Thanks Dems.

So completely predictable. They know we know they are lying. They just don’t care, any thin veil to cover the steal is all they need.

Joe Biden - consistently the dullest knife in the drawer.

BS on his claims:
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/03/07/u-s-crude-oil-imports-40-6-percent-biden-compared-trump/

Meanwhile, we’re about to start importing Iranian and Venezuelan oil just to try to keep gas prices stable, so that the Dems don’t get utterly slaughtered in November, and to allow Russia to escape sanctions by dealing with Iran as an intermediary...all because the Dems have no policy that is not aimed at both weakening this country and ensuring that they obtain or maintain their power. I loathe them with every fiber of my existence.

Putin forced the gas price up, so we’re going to counteract him by constricting supply.

Brilliant, Joe. #LGB

Joe Biden Blames

Sooo...the dems have pivoted from blaming everything on Trump to blaming everything on Putin. And just like night follows day, the prostitute media will agree and amplify everything the democrats say is gospel.

The blame game and deflection is EASY when you have most media and globalists in lock step with your lies1!

Obama didn’t run anything. He was nothing more than an affable stooge

TOTUS. He didn't know what to say without it. Someone else is definitely running the show.

Okay, so war-hysteria accounts for the rise in prices over the past week even though a very tiny fraction of our gas comes from Russian sources. So, what about the past year? What is his excuse for that?

Gas prices weren’t going up before Putin invaded Ukraine?

Inflation wasn’t going up before Putin invaded Ukraine? FJB

“Biden’s actions tell me he’s either not serious or just plain stupid.”


Between those, I’ll take Door #2, simply because that has always been the case with him. Of course, he’s not really running anything - he can barely decide which flavor of ice cream to have and can’t stop crapping himself in front of the Pope.

However, you did forget Door #3, which is that he’s corrupt (again, this has always been the case). So I’m picking both Door #2 and Door #3.

At or over $5 a gallon around Reno—Some $5.69 and one has removed prices so I bet is even more.

#13: this is what Biden wanted, he wants skyrocketing gas prices so people are forced to buy electric cars, that is the end game.

Exactly. You nailed it.

The end game isn't just EV's, that's the tip of the iceberg. it's a massive shift in spending to greenies.

There are thousands of existing oil wells in the U.S. that were capped because the price of oil was too low. Crank them back up!
