Chaos in California: Hundreds of gas stations have shuttered statewide overnight amid skyrocketing operating costs, chronic supply shortages, and relentless regulatory pressures—forcing long lines, rationing fears, and a statewide fuel panic that has drivers scrambling and businesses grinding to a halt. Governor Gavin Newsom is reportedly losing control as the crisis spirals, with independents and major chains alike pulling out rather than face unviable margins in the high-tax, high-regulation environment. This video delivers Kevin O'Leary's no-mercy breakdown: this isn't random bad luck—it's a textbook case of policy suicide, where punishing energy infrastructure and chasing green mandates has backfired spectacularly, torching affordable fuel access, hammering working families, and proving that overregulation doesn't save the planet—it just bankrupts the state and hands victory to out-of-state suppliers. No bailout coming, just cold hard economic reality hitting California like a freight train.

Exactly why Newsom, Walz, et al. need to keep egging the anti-ICE news cycles..
Take that you dirty fossil fuels!!!
The world needs more electric cars.
He says 17 days until the S.H.T.F. California will be importing more foreign oil (genius!) but it has to be that specialized California blend. Shortages are on the menu soon.
I just got a flashback to the Jimmy Carter days. Fill up only on odd or even days.
Like I said, Grey Davis 2
egging on*
He’ll have to issue Directive 10-289.
And it's not even a high speed rail one!
I don’t ignore the possibility they use real eggs.

In addition to the “need to support Ukraine” narratives. The globalist in the West need distractions while they continue to corruptly destroy Western Civilization.
“ Like I said, Grey Davis 2”
Compared to Newscum, Davis looks like Reagan.
And of course it’s Trump’s fault ....
“Joseph Graham “Gray” Davis Jr. (born December 26, 1942) is an American attorney and former politician who served as the 37th governor of California from 1999 until he was recalled and removed from office in 2003. He is the second state governor in U.S. history to have been recalled, after Lynn Frazier of North Dakota.”
I used to think they were just dumb and living in a fantasy. But they not only know, it’s their plan.
And do what with this oil?
The refineries are shut down.
I live in the Bay Area, and I’ve only seen one gas station closed — and that was because it’s getting new pumps. There haven’t been any lines, either.
Gas prices high here in Vegas. NV gets 88% of its gasoline from CA. Newsom is an idiot.
AI? Don’t rule it out.
How much is a gallon of gas?
