Gas prices have increased by over 47 cents in the last month alone as the U.S. continues to smash gas price records day by day under President Joe Biden’s leadership.
On Wednesday, May 25, the U.S. recorded yet another all-time high, as the average price of gas stands at $4.599 for regular gas. This reflects an over 47 cent rise in the last month alone. One month ago, the gas price average stood at $4.123.
Some of the states experiencing the worst average gas prices include Alaska, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington, all of which have averages above $5.00 per gallon. California has the highest average, climbing above $6.00.
The trend is dire, as industry experts predict a “cruel summer” for Americans nationwide, expecting gas prices to leap over $6.00.
“With expectations of strong driving demand … US retail price could surge another 37% by August to a $6.20/gal national average,” J.P. Morgan’s commodities research head, Natasha Kaneva, stated last week.
Biden has failed to take responsibility for rising prices, bizarrely stating on Monday that Americans are going through an “incredible transformation.”
Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm has also attempted to absolve the administration of any blame.
“Ninety-four percent of the oil and gas executives that were surveyed by the Dallas Fed said that administration policies had nothing to do with the increase in the price of oil,” she told Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) during a hearing last week.
“Your answers are insulting and they are insulting to the people of Missouri who are looking for action,” snapped back, previously walking through the Biden administration’s steady attack on energy independence.

He immediately reentered the Paris Climate Accord. He canceled the Keystone Pipeline. He halted leasing programs in ANWR. He issued a 60-day halt on all new oil and gas leases and drilling permits on federal lands and waters. That’s nationwide. That accounts, by the way, for 25 percent of U.S. oil production He directed federal agencies to eliminate all supports for fossil fuels. He imposed new regulations on oil and gas and methane emissions. Those were all just in the first few days.
Yet, Granholm maintained her denial, blaming rising prices on Russia.
Biden voters care about the price, but blame it on Putin and Trump. They really do, I know some and that’s exactly how they see it.
Lets Go Brandon! FJB
We will have to go back to O’Bungholes “Hope for spare Change”
A shot of the cost to fill my car today. A year ago it cost half that amount.
Thanks for nothing Biden.
Well, like they say, YOU CAN’T FIX STUPID. 12 years of grooming in sex school and then at least four years of programing in college. The young skulls of mush come out a lot mushier than when they went in.
The World Economic Forum and it’s members at work saving the world ,LOL
I know, my car fill up went from $32 to $75 - FJB is being nice, impeach biden.
Saving whales 300 years into the future.
“impeach biden”
I can think of some other verbs
Really, what would impeachment accomplish? We would get Harris to carry on the same policies for the deep state, globalist overlords. Biden/Harris were installed as puppets to carry out their far left agenda to destroy America. So far they are doing a great job.
“I’m Joe Biden and I approve of this gas price increase.”
Chu, Steven, Obama’s Secretary of Energy - “Somehow we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe.”
“Putin’s price hike.”
It’s a litmus test for idiocy, just like the mask.
California speaking here. It’s becoming difficult to find gas under $6.00/gallon with many stations showing $6.50.
Went to the LA County Fair last week - for the first time in two years. It was near empty in the middle of the day and on into the evening, the mass parking lot had few cars in it - usually we have to park way way out.
I believe this is due to the high cost of gas - I’m noticing fewer cars driving down my own street and the freeway near my home seems to be moving far quicker during rush hour.
Of course, many more people now work from home. This is a good argument for not returning to the office, I know both of my children are far happier working at home.
I just had my annual physical and had the blood drawn for my lab tests. If one is willing to get up early before 8:30 am, you can come into the HMO’s lab with no appt. and no waiting for your blood drawing and other lab tests.
Two gas stations went from $6.05/gal as I drove by at 7ish am and a little after 8 am coming home from the clinic to $6.19/gal.
2 Different gas companies and yet the same prices/gal before and after the same increase/gal..

Accountability.
How so? Joe isn’t accountable as he makes no decisions. If he was, which will not happen, we would get Harris to continue with the globalist agenda. They were installed not elected.
