President Joe Biden adamantly condemned calls for loosening restrictions on domestic energy prices on Tuesday, arguing it would not help lower gas prices.
“Loosening environmental regulations or pulling back clean energy investment won’t — let me expand. Won’t. Will not lower energy prices for families,” he said during a speech at the White House announcing his decision to ban oil imports from Russia to punish Russian President Vladimir Putin for escalating his war in Ukraine.
Republicans excoriated the president’s efforts to restrict domestic oil production, as the average cost of gas reached record highs over the weekend.
The president argued for more electric cars and other policies promoted by the left’s Green New Deal as the solution.

“But transforming our economy to run on electric vehicles powered by clean energy with tax credits to help American families winterize their homes and use less energy — that will,” he said. “That will help.”
Biden spoke of a global consensus together with key leaders in Europe on reducing their use of oil, and said he was working with them on “long term strategies” to do so.
“They have to wean themselves off of Russian oil. It’s just not tenable,” he said.
Biden shared his dream of a future where Americans did not have to worry about the price of gas, if they pursued his “green” energy future.
“If we do what we can, it will mean that no one will have to worry about price of gas pump in the future,” he said, complaining that “tyrants like Putin” were “weaponizing” their natural resources.

They are trying to force people to buy EV’s, people should refuse to buy them
The Republicans never run hard hitting ads. They will advocate for more federal daycare and bipartisan solutions. Have to win a general election ya know.
We’re supposed to vote pubbie this November because pubbies aren’t rats.
BZZT. Not good enough.
Clown world.
Counting votes after election day matters.
And don’t forget that planes and ships can’t use electricity, extension cables will limit their performance.
So will “Brandon” give me 2 “freebie” vehicles to replace the ones we own (and need!!)?? Will he also pay for installing at-home charging stations and the required electric overhaul of my aging home??
The inmates are running the asylum!
Does Biden expect the lower middle class and all those not paying income taxes to be able to afford an electric car?
Just wait till people are all freezing to death with no heat in their homes.
Like COVID, people who refused the jab were threatened, fired, terminated, careers crushed, opportunities smashed...Same thing will happen with EVs. Give up your gas car, you're killing people, and murdering the planet. And those who refuse to give them up, they will make life miserable and expensive for them. Just like they did with COVID.
No wonder they’re called the Stupid Party.

[Right, Joe! ... after all, everyone knows that we don’t need fossil fuels to make electricity because we get our electricity from receptacles embedded in our walls and the supply is therefore cheap and unlimited ...
Moron is as moron does ...
stolen elections have consequences ...]
obama.
yes.
Let me make this simple. Joe says more oil production will not decrease prices of gasoline at the pump. He is either a liar or has no concept of competitive economics.
For example, I am a whore in an isolated area of Northern Alaska, I am actually a straight dude but do have value for those of peculiar likes of which I decline. LOL
This camp has one whore. She dictates the price and it is not negotiable, pay the price or go away. A plane lands with 3 more whores of greater beauty than the first whore and competition happens. The price of whores work value goes down. That is just the way it works. Oil prices are no different.
Due to the less beauty of whore 1 her value is much declined to the point of destitution. She goes on welfare until the local population realize she is an economic disaster. She was last seen on an ice flow drifting North into the Arctic Sea.
How’s the price of nickel these days there buddy? Just wait...there’s more increases coming. That $56,000 EV car price is on sale today..... and, if by some magical miracle everyone should wake up with an EV car in their driveway what kind of energy source are you going to use to charge them with??? The Unicorn Fart Grid?
For centuries everyone has benefited from Science. Now we will all be killed by Political Science and Bidenflation.
His Butt’s Been Wiped.
Because electric cars are magically powered by rainbows and unicorn farts.
This administration is evil.

Dumbass-in-chief is ignoring the facts, like he always does-talking about long term strategies, tax credits, electric vehicles, etc and ignoring the fact that it it is still Winter-and that means the weather is cold, even here in Texas-no long term bulls*** is going to warm people’s homes, magically pay for an unwanted and unaffordable EV, useless in a rural area-or provide a place to charge it, even if you sprinkle fairy dust over it all...
Unicorn farts from solar and wind power will NEVER provide all the affordable power to even all our rural homes and small businesses-many of which are home-based-that only works on a very small scale for sole source of energy-we know that because this and other electrical co-ops already obtain the max efficiency and affordability possible from partial generation of wind and solar-efficiency of those tops out at at less than 50%-so no, it is not inexpensive or reliable as a main source of electrical generation on a large scale-Biden and his handlers are idiots-we should convert their homes and offices to only wind and solar power first, and watch them freeze in the dark till they agree to STFU and go away...
Delusional to the end. Nothing phases them.
Will there be charging stations in the DEAD zones,
the radioactive waste areas?
The left won’t be happy until that is the state of things.
