“I guarantee you, we are going to end fossil fuel,” said then-candidate Joe Biden, declaring war on domestic energy producers. Now, 14 months into his presidency, the budgets of Americans and small businesses are being squeezed by record-high gas prices and historic levels of inflation.
Before Biden's crusade against domestic energy, businesses enjoyed low gas prices thanks to Republican policies that prioritized energy independence.
In fact, during the Trump administration, the U.S. became the world’s number one producer of oil and strengthened our lead as one of the top natural gas producers. Our energy exports reached an all-time high, marking the first time in 67 years that America’s annual gross energy exports exceeded our imports.
Under President Biden, however, we have moved backwards. In 2020, the U.S. produced 13 million barrels of oil a day. Now, because of the Biden administration’s energy agenda, the U.S. produces just 11.5 million barrels a day – more than a 10 percent decline.

Who’s fueling the fossil in the white house when the fossil is banning fossil fuel?
Dont call it “Biden’s war” because it is the position held by the vast majority of democrats. And it is a war based in self righteousness foolishness. It ignores science and basic economics.
We should end fossil fools.
It is a war based on graft and corruption.
Until election integrity is restored our enemies will continue to pick our leaders for us. Election integrity is not just issue #1 it is now the only issue between ending our current dictatorship or having it continue.
Want to end Putin and Xi? End the war on fossil fuels and drill like no tomorrow, build nuclear power plants, and bring our production home.
Sure. So how? Do you have any ideas beyond just scribbling about what we already know?
I detest liberals but they at least take some action beyond intellectual scribbling.
I fear the damage has been done. So much money was lost by new regulations and Executive Orders by these usurpers that stole the elections, nobody dare risk another penny, including those that worked in the industry and had their families destroyed.
Exactly, the administration insiders are loading up on public companies they will ensure get loads of government money.
Gonna end food, too.
You are correct.
The Climate BS everything to the rats. Power, control and unlimited funding.
Even their "electric cars" feed off of fossil fuel.
It’s time to end the term “fossil fuels.” The earth produces oil, not fossils. “Fossil” implies a limited supply, which isn’t true.
The lunatic greens are responsible for the food shortages, coming famines, starvation and hunger wars. The assault on fossil fuels has caused the cost of natural gas, the core ingredient of fertilizer, to skyrocket in price, become scarce and not available to most farmers especially in South America, Africa ,Asia and throughout Europe.Diesel fuel, essential for farmers, is also too expensive for most food producers and distributors. The globalist elites in this country and the EU will be inconvenienced but not likely to suffer themselves. In fact they will approve of the deaths due to starvation and war since depopulation is their prime goal. Too bad it is unlikely that they will not be held accountable
I put a large solar array onto my house, with a sizeable battery storage. I also converted my two natural gas appliances to electric and shut off my gas service.
That was almost a year ago, I like the results (supplied 56% of all my power consumed), and I'm upgrading it while shopping around for an EV. I believe our home and EV use will be about 90% powered by solar.
Do I like the Dims' war on energy? Nope. Do I think solar is better than oil or natural gas or nuclear? Nope. But the #1 thing solar brings to the table is I control it, not the gubment. If I could drill my own natural gas I would, but I can't. So I'm doing what I can to wean my family's dependency on energy bureaucrats.
I have solar at our family cabin. I’m not against it at all. I’m just against conservative scribblers who offer nothing beyond endless carping.
To end Biden’s was on fossil fuels, we also have to end the democrats’ war on fossil fuels.
It’s the whole democrat party that has signed on to the fossil-fuel/climate-change BAD philosophy/religion.
Somebody needs to take them on, on national TV and radio and social media and everyplace.
Yup. Just how many dinos were there? 😂🙌
