When you are dealing with a moron, you have to expect imbecile like behavior. Who would have imagined that destroying American energy independence, and shutting down the Keystone Pipeline; while using political might to prevent energy companies from developing more resourced - and instigating a proxy war with Russia, would create a fuel shortage?

There is nothing that Liberals cannot destroy; and then blame their destruction upon the Republicans.

$70 Billion sound like a lot until you look at how much was invested for that return.

I’d rather talk about Big Pharm’s profits from their experimentation on people around the world via mRNA shots.

Brandon is clueless when it comes to business. He never had a real job in his life or owned and operated a LEGAL business. He has no idea what a corporate profit is, who gets it, how dividends are declared and distributed or the taxes being paid.

Joe Biden wouldn’t know a P and L from an Ice Cream cone.

I suspect that what is happening with profits is that oil companies buy the oil at market values, refine it and sell it (at a later date after refining and transport) and Lo! market prices are higher now so gas prices are higher too. And hence they make a profit. In other words, they are selling gas at higher prices than the oil that it came from. But the oil is also more expensive now so all that money goes to buy more oil. In the temporary state, they show a big profit but it's at least somewhat a function of the marget price differential between the time they bought the crude and the time it goes to market as gasoline.

If that's the case it's a fake issue because eventually prices come down and they get stuck selling gas at a low price made from oil they paid a high price for.

This traitor is getting desperate and is completely out of touch in thinking this line of attack will change anyone’s party preference. Cornered rats are dangerous though. We should worry about these demonic people trying a false flag before the election.

The Biden administration is seizing on huge earnings calls from oil companies as it seeks to give voters a response to relatively high gasoline prices ahead of next week’s midterms.

We don't call The sHill for nothing.

I’m not a cpa but aren’t “earnings” and “profits” different?

If you want Oil Company Profits to go down... Let Them Drill.

When oil becomes plentiful, prices and profits will fall.

Why not just nationalize the oil companies, like Venezuela did! We can all revel in the expectation of the same results. What’s the definition of “insanity” again? I forget.

Here is Rome, New York, last week I filled up my gas tank. For economy grade, it was 2.59 a gallon. Yesterday when I was out and about, most of the stations here had economy grade at $2.89 a gallon. Yeah Joe, gas prices are truly going down.

This truly has been an amusing election season. The dems run around from failing gambit to failing gambit and back again.

Roll out Biden to yell at you (there is no recession, gas prices are lower, buy lower priced raisin bran, they want to steal your social security, etc.). That gambit goes sideways in hurry.

So, they roll out the usual abortion Barbie gambit where Pelosi tells you to ignore the issues she doesn’t like and just focus on abortion. Cause, you know, because you m use obey her. That goes nowhere.

So they roll out the January 6th/election denier angle with the “dangerous and extreme” labelling of the candidate. Or now, they take a break in by a hemp jewelry making, Berkeley resident who lives in a bus, has BLM and Gay Rights banners on his lawn and they tout him as a FoxNews influenced, Trump supporting far right “dangerous” conservative.

That is in the process of failing so we go back to Old Man yelling at sky.

Oh, and a healthy dose of the ONE telling his usual race baiting lies and quite frankly looking old and tired.

Washing, rinsing and repeating.

Biden almost always like to take credit for things he did.

So why is Biden not taking credit for the huge profits being reported by the oil companies?

Biden was directly responsible for the increase in oil prices.

Come on man, be proud of your accomplishments.

Biden hates the makers and gives to the takers.
Socialism/communism will always be popular as long as some people think they can get something for nothing.
