resident Joe Biden and prominent Democrats blame Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, alleged oil-company collusion, and even COVID-19 for today’s sky-high gas prices. They refuse to take responsibility for this monumental mess of their own design.
Revealing ... perjury-strength talent for lying, resident Biden said: "It’s simply not true that my administration or policies are holding back domestic energy production."
While running for president, Biden repeatedly promised to do exactly this.
"I guarantee you," Biden told New Hampshire voters on Sept. 6, 2019. "We’re going to end fossil fuels."
...
From Day One, Biden and the Democrats’ actions and statements pushed gasoline prices ever higher.
Jan. 20, 2021: Just hours after Biden’s inauguration, his executive order killed the Keystone XL Pipeline and launched the Democrat War on Oil.
...
Jan. 27, 2021: Biden directed the Interior Department to stop oil and natural gas leases on federal lands and in public waters. (Gasoline: $2.39)
Feb. 14, 2021: Interior Secretary nominee Deb Haaland declared: "We need to keep fossil fuels in the ground." ($2.46)
...
June 1: Biden halted oil and gas leases in Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. ($3.03)
...
Sept. 23: Biden nominated Soviet-born and educated Saule Omarova as Comptroller of the Currency. She had said of oil and gas companies, "We want them to go bankrupt."

"He put a national injunction on Biden’s 'pause' in these sales. Defying that decision, the president still has not sold an onshore oil-and-gas lease, despite a federal law and a federal court order, both of which command him to do so. And Joe Biden’s fifth quarter is about to expire."

Anyone who has been buying gasoline the past year knows that.
This will last until Brandon’s eighth quarter and the Congress turns solid red. Then the impeachment proceedings begin!
All of us already knew this.
This is an excellent timeline tying Biden Administration actions to the steady increase in the price of gas before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
An obvious fact that the simplest minds can grasp. It’s amusing to listen to Democrats blame Putin and greedy oil companies for a problem they created.
It’s not just the gasoline. Democrats have been waging war against all forms of energy, except solar and wind, for decades. The result is escalating electricity and natural gas prices.

An increase of 16%.
