First, Biden is the one who funded Russia's invasion. Biden killed our pipelines, killed coal and banned drilling, which made us dependent on Russian oil — which made Russia filthy rich and arrogant.

This is just ignorant. We barely buy any oil from Russia -- certainly not enough to have made Russia "filthy rich". The real culprits in terms of making Russia rich would be those European nations -- Germany in particular -- who made themselves dependent on Russian energy and provided them far more money.

Fair to say that Biden screwed over all of us. But it's just bombast to claim that his decisions on U.S. drilling funded this invasion.
