The White House is seeking to pin the blame for high gas prices in the United States on a new target: Russian President Vladimir Putin.

President Biden and White House officials this week have increasingly argued that Putin's invasion of Ukraine is the cause of higher prices at the pump, an argument they reiterated after the administration on Tuesday banned imports of Russian oil.

Obviously, Biden doesn’t own a mirror.

Yes, just ignore the trillions in fiat currency being created out of thin air, and the fact that our domestic oil industry is being hamstrung. Those have no bearing on gas prices.

They should send out “I did that” stickers for the gas pumps with Putin’s picture.

And the sheep that rely on the MSM and social media will believe it. Gripe all you want, but they aren’t speaking to the crowd on FR.

gas prices were increasing ever since Biden was installed by Zuckerberg Inc.

[1Old Pro]

So are they dubbing the 2021 spikes THE BRANDON SPIKE?

[HighSierra5]

Nice try Aholes. As gas goes to $10 a gallon people are gonna get crazy.

[Pxzftrnqfrn]

So how do you explain all the stickers at the gas pumps before this Ukraine thing even began? Prices were already up. Now they are simply up more.

Well, we can call it up here a Justin spike.

Finally we know who. /$ Thanks branDUHn.

Doesn’t matter - the rats are going to get blamed for it no matter what they call it.

I’m sure Putin is more than willing to sell us all the oil we want.
