Gas prices in Massachusetts reached a new record high for the sixth day in a row Friday, according to AAA. The average price for a gallon of gasoline in the state is now $4.53.

That’s up six cents from Thursday and 23 cents in the last week. A year ago at this time it was $1.64 lower at $2.89 a gallon.

The national average is now $4.45 a gallon, also a new record AAA said Saturday.

Diesel prices have also hit a new high in Massachusetts, now averaging $6.36 as of Saturday.

Perhaps Bidung can save the day by squandering the gas reserves then refilling them at triple the cost

Joe Biden got 65.6% of the presidential vote in Massachusetts in 2020.

I don't care if gas is $20 bucks a gallon there.

They got what they voted for.

No mean tweets though.

It’s all part of the plan.

It’s working exactly like the democrats wanted, and the $7 per gallon dream of Obama is not far off, but because of inflation, that $7 per gallon will have to be $10 per gallon and then, America’s economy will die, and that too is part of the plan from Soros and the America last democrats.

China and Russia and N. Korea and Iran and all of America’s enemies will soon be running the world, and the U.S. will cease to exist and we’ll get a few third-world nations after the U.S. is broken up. The dream of the progressives and our enemies, will have come true.

Biden’s fault:

1) Killed the XL Pipeline two hours after taking office and
2) withdrew prime offshore and land-based leases by EO
3) slowed the permitting process for those leases that did go through
4) smoke-and-mirrors press release of additional federal lands on lands already known to be dry holes
5) withdrew an additional one million acres of lease land in Alaska on April 26th.

Don’t buy into his Russia conflict as the cause. Prices had already risen 48% weeks before the conflict even started. Make no mistake, Soros and Obama are running the show. Joe doesn’t have a clue

Regular is $4.79 most places in northwest Indiana. Sickening.

Trump received about 34% of the vote in Massachusetts in 2020, which is well over 2.3 million voters — ie, about 4 times the entire population of Wyoming, 3 times the entire population of N. Dakota, 2.5 times the entire population of S. Dakota, 2 times the entire population of Montana, 1.25 the entire population of Idaho — in none of which states, I would point out, did Trump receive 100% of the vote.

So spare some sympathy for the conservatives of Massachusetts. There’s plenty of them.

Once again we’re at the highest price at our general lowest
price station in my town, Glendale, CA.

The price of unleaded regular hit $5.79 for cash, and $5.89
on credit card.

Up the block is a Mobil, always one of the highest in town,
now with the same type of gas for $6.79 per gallon.

Congratulations to the massholes who voted Democrat hope y’all like paying and paying and paying for gas and everything else. But what am I thinking Democrat voters never think their voting patterns have negative consequences. They listen to CNN MSNBC etc and like the brain dead zombies they are say it’s those evil Republicans and greedy companies that caused this. Democrats sure have the lock on the dumbass demographic.

Lots of $7 here in the SF Bay Area. At most stations, all prices are in the sixes. Let’s Go Brandon — destroy the USA!

Would like to exterminate the other 66% here, though.
