Guess Who Biden Blamed For The Rising Cost Of Fuel? What A JOKE!
We all knew good and damn well that Biden was never going to accept responsibility for the high price of fuel but pointing the finger at oil companies is kind of embarrassing. Biden's killed more expansion projects than any one president but he wants us all to believe that he can't control gas prices.
"Biden "called for the Federal Trade Commission to probe whether oil and gas companies are engaging in criminal conduct by profiting from artificially high prices at the pump, even as wholesale fuel costs decline.
Biden – under mounting political pressure with inflation at the highest rate in more than three decades – urged FTC Chair Lina Khan to investigate potential wrongdoing by the industry, alleging "mounting evidence of anti-consumer behavior" by the companies."
"It takes profound naivete for Biden not to recognize how his and his team’s anti-oil animus has driven fuel costs skyward. In fewer than 11 months, this administration has:
- Killed the Keystone XL pipeline.
- Threatened to plug the Canada-to-Michigan Enbridge Line 5 pipeline.
- Halted oil leases in a sliver of Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
- Stopped oil and gas leases on federal lands.
- Proposed a methane tax that could cost this industry up to $10 billion annually.
- Encouraged left-wing activists to pressure financiers to defund oil companies.
"Team Biden’s sadism toward its fellow Americans exposes the thuggish side of its anti-oil fanaticism.
- Biden himself told New Hampshire voters in Sept. 2019: “I guarantee you, we’re going to end fossil fuels.”
- Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm, while Michigan’s governor, said in November 2016, “We ought to be doing everything we possibly can to keep fossil fuel energy in the ground.”
- Saule Omarova—Biden’s Kazakh-born, Soviet-educated, Brezhnev-flavored nominee for comptroller of the currency—spoke in February about fossil fuel companies: “We want them to go bankrupt, if we want to tackle climate change.”
Lucky for the rest of us, Omarova, like the rest of Biden's insane nominees failed to get into office. Biden must be fuming from all the defeat he's had recently. He really thought that since Democrats held the majority, pushing the US into socialism would be easy.
