They don’t even hide it. No matter how often it happens it shocks me when the media showcases it takes talking points from the government.
Gas prices started to skyrocket before Russia enhanced its invasion of Ukraine (remember that Russia invaded eight years ago). It’s no lie that gas prices will get worse because of the invasion. But it is a lie to blame it on Putin.

So far I’ve only seen ABC News puppet the “Putin’s price” lie and a local station. But the Democrats are going to town with it.

Today I’ll vote to ban U.S. dollars from funding Putin’s war machine.
Now we must do everything in our power to shield working people from Putin’s price hike at the pump by fully restoring America’s energy independence and passing a working-class tax cut.

I support punishing Putin with a ban on Russian oil imports to the U.S., and I support this bipartisan legislation to increase production and use of Made in America biofuel to help lower costs for Wisconsinites who face Putin's price spike at the pump.https://t.co/lNJeRXmZlu

Let’s be clear: this is Putin’s price hike.
High gas prices are the result of rapid shifts in supply & demand due to COVID & Putin’s illegal invasion of Ukraine. It’s time to work together to find solutions, not exploit this crisis for political gain. https://t.co/NrD6llEgOY

Putin's price hike "should motivate to us accelerate to a transition of clean energy."

On an inflation adjusted basis the price of West Texas Intermediate-trading near $120-would have to move to near $180 per barrel to equal the previous all time high of $145.29 posted on 7/3/08. This gives one a sense of just how nasty Putin’s price shock is impacting the economy. pic.twitter.com/siMIk7L0mY

As soon as prices went up and people noticed leftists told us no president of any country can control gas prices and we’re too stupid to understand how it works.
Thought these Global Warming cultists loved high priced gas?
The only problem in blaming Putin for higher gas prices....we all saw the Biden “I did that stickers” on gas pumps months ago. Its a silly little sticker that all common people saw at their local gas stations and got for Christmas. They can try...but we know the truth.
I doubt there was a memo.....they probly just yelled into the next room.
Putin is more than willing to sell us oil , so I don’t see how Biden can really blame him.
Remember the Journ-o-list?......................
The covid “crisis” ended abruptly and was instantly replaced by the Ukraine crisis so we wouldn’t think too much about the lives and liberties that the government/medical complex took from us. It’s forgotten. There is no chance that anyone will be held accountable for what they did to us.
They are also using the Ukraine crisis to get our minds off the inflation that was caused by the government printing money. The most obvious sign of inflation is the price of gas. They are skilled at redirecting our focus from the real problem to a convenient scapegoat.
Nobody believes the Biden/Psaki lie. Like someone else said on another thread, you only need to lie and deceive when you are weak and inept.
Oh yeah....they’re all just the propaganda ministry of the dnc
Remember the Journ-o-list?.....................

I can only remember
URINalists.
Every day, all day, they pee on us and tell us it’s rain.
The Leftist media will repeat the lie to the 50 % of the population that watch CNN etc. They will do this for then next 3 years leading up to the Pres. elections.
It will become the propagandized truth to enough to make the election contested. It will be worth watching the crossover Democrats and the Independents and how much they move in the next coming years.
So the $1.00+ that the gas prices went up after Biden took office, but before Russia invaded Ukraine has nothing to do with Biden? It’s all Russia’s fault now?
Yeah, but . . . Russia is a big country right next to the Ukraine country. . . . .
Didn’t know about that.
Thanks for the link.
