This DeceptiCon, this specific one, owned by the multinational corporate conglomerates, is one of the worst in office.
Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski tells Politico tonight that she is in favor of higher gas prices for Americans if that’s what it takes to punish Vladimir Putin.
…”We’re going to see price increases. Nobody wants to see that. This is going to hurt. But we need to recognize Europe is in the midst of a war w/ Russia. Innocent people are dying. We have not been in as volatile as a situation as anytime in my life.“…
~ Senator Lisa Murkowski (Alaska)
Here we go with the narrative of you being unpatriotic if you are not willing to financially suffer the pain inflicted intentionally by the U.S. government. Not willing to pay $7/gal for gasoline? You’re selfish. Not willing to forego a better life for your family, in order to save Ukraine? You are a horrible person.
However, this narrative is even worse, because the NATO (aligned with World Economic Forum) economic warfare is not only a combination of ideology and corporate influence, but it is also made worse by U.S. government energy policy – which is aligned with the multinational corporations demanding the confrontation. Effen’ FUBAR all the way around.
(Via Politico) – Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski on Wednesday called for the U.S. to stop imports of Russia oil to punish Moscow for the assault against Ukraine — even if it drives domestic energy prices higher.
Targeting Russian energy is the “most significant” tool left for the U.S. to deploy, the Alaska senator said in an interview, and given President Vladimir Putin’s dependence on oil and gas revenues, it’s “the one that can do the most immediate damage to Russia in halting their efforts.”
“We are going to see price increases,” Murkowski said. “Nobody wants to see that. And this is going to hurt. But we all need to recognize Europe is in the midst of a war with Russia now. Innocent people are dying, children are dying. We have not been in as volatile as a situation as anytime in my life. And so we are looking right now from a very short window.” (read more)
This type of stuff just blows my blood pressure cuff.

Don’t you just love how they take money out of YOUR pocket with their virtue signaling?
Always. And yes, they do get a perverse little thrill from forcing you to pay for anything that you fundamentally disagree with. Sociopaths love that “Abuse of Power” drug.
A senator from a state with vast oil reserves who isn’t demanding we tap those reserves, rather is acting as a cheerleader for oil shortages and higher prices, has NO business representing that state.
That’s exactly it, senators DO NOT represent their states after the 17th amendment. It’s a feature not a bug 🙁
How-To get the message of NO CONSENT across?
The 17th was put in by socialists(progressives) to remove the influence of states in our union and destroy the idea of power sharing. The 17th s/b repealed. A meeting of the states can do that.
I agree with you 100%.
I guess all of the politician contingent of our Gooberment have bought enough shares of stock in the electric car industry by now. The push to make gasoline prices drive us all toward heavily subsidized electric cars before we can vote them out of the Legislature in November is now on.
What a farce! They invent a global warming crisis so that all of the Democracies in the world can get together to finance a solution for that hoax, including shutting down all forms of energy coming from carbon producing sources, measuring the average carbon footprint for all of humanity, taxing any use above the average, subsidizing all energy systems that are by their accounting free of the hated carbon emissions using increased income taxes on all middle class folk who are earning above the magic Maginot line of carbon, and driving all consumers of internal combustion engines to buy grossly overpriced vehicles that run on hydrocarbon produced batteries that have to be charged with electricity generated by burning hydrocarbons as well. Every last bit of this hoax is now being masqueraded as the result of “settled science”.
Anyone who has ever believed any of this crap is just as responsible for this mess as the politicians who will be the only people to join the phony corporations which will produce all of the crap needed to fix the carbon levels in the air for the whole world.
” —insert any coca-cola commercial jingle you have listened to over the last 35 years—–” Yip, yip, yip and yahoo!
But NEVER open a new domestic pipeline, nor resume drilling on fed lands, nor accelerate fracking. Noooo, we dare not endanger John Kerry’s environment.
How many personal yachts and jets has Kerry dispensed with?
What! Yachts are exempt?
These people should be marched off stage, yet we are the bigger fools, we let them spread their contagion of lies.
they’re not HIS private jets and yachts…they’re his wifes first husband’s jets and yachts!
as if that made some sort of difference…
Kerry the “Gigolo.”
Kerry is so stupid and detached from reality that he lost a Presidential election to the imbecilic George W Bush.
Well, but if we were actually not dependent on anyone else for what we need, what would be the point of raising prices on us?! How would that hurt anyone we do not depend on?
So they punish us, but exactly how does our misery affect anyone we depend on?! Just because we aren’t buying as much, hurts them, who have other, independent resources, exactly how?
And why wouldn’t we who are being deliberately made to pay for THEIR stupidity, turn on them, which is the only logical response?!
Actually not being The Brain, trying to control everyone and everything in the world, would end this bath tub drain!
Serious questions: WHY do we allow other people to rule over us? Exactly what do you get from electing rulers over you? How is that rational?
Thanks a lot, Senator. Who is your driver today? And who will be paying for your gas? Oh yeah – we will!
Maybe this witch will move to Russia.
VVP…DO NOT LIKE …progressives (commies/demon cratic socialists)…
We have not been in as volatile as a situation as anytime in my life.“…
I guess she was not alive during the cuban missle crisis?
I guess she was not alive in 1973?
Sounds like she wasn’t around for 9/11.
Ah, yes. The children are dying…these people are sick.
Last night, the Chicago Mobil gas station on Fullerton Ave. across the street from DePaul University jumped 39 cents from $4.57 to $4.96. Grocery store shelves around here have varying levels of emptiness. They can no longer hide that the shelves can no longer be fully stocked.
The Costco gas station on Clyborn constantly has a line of cars waiting to get gas. This has been going on for the past few months off and on.
Brilliant. Drive oil prices up to the great benefit of Russia and Iran while they continue to sell their oil. If Russia is sanctioned they’ll just covertly sell their oil on the black market just like Iran does. China, for one, will be an eager buyer.
Punishing Russia and Putin requires a full blown recession and drop in home prices causing another mortgage crisis. Yah, that’s the ticket.
Aussie Coal Prices Surge Almost $100 As Countries Seek Alternatives To Russian Energy – 3 Mar 2022
https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/aussie-coal-prices-surge-almost-100-countries-seek-alternatives-russian-coal
The price of Australian thermal coal has skyrocketed by US$99, or 33 percent, in one day as countries traditionally reliant on Russian coal scramble to secure alternative sources.
it could be ended today. agree to not expand NATO into Ukraine or put US military bases in Ukraine.
This whole Ukraine Russia war would have been avoided if the real President Donald Trump had been President. Now we may go to a now win war with Russia because stupid fools believed the communist news media that Donald Trump was such a bad person, we had to get rid of him
,Now we have, by far, the worst President in our history, when we needed some one to step up to the plate and be a real President.
Don’t look at me I voted for Donald Trump.
>Now we may go to a now win war with Russia
No consent. Can’t say America is Free anymore if they do it.
So far it hasn’t happened. No need to worry about. Nobody can predict the future.
Right now should be the time to be the WRECKING CREW for all the covid bioweapon tricks, force and lies
Forget Ukraine you can’t do anything about that, but you can nail Fauci and these State Governors like Newsom
Is Biden a member of WEF? I see him talking on https://www.neighborhoodnewsstudio.com/
Feeling your pain. Notice how Lisa is the one reaching across in the photo patting the arm of her colleague in the war. But we weren’t always at war with Eurasia. Way to stick it to Putin girl, every dollar increase in fuel prices helps line his pockets but, pretending you are hurting him does help provide cover for the pain inflicted here which demands two minutes of hate every morning directed at the culprit. The most significant tool for the U.S. to deploy. Yes, it is. Deployed against its own serfs and useful idiots and rebels in need of conquering and reeducating in order to fight an even larger and absolutely existential threat posed by a few more parts per million of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere which the scientists they hired claim threatens the planet with a plethora of dire effects if not reversed. Humans bad, planet good. Must kill humans to save planet. Sounds perverse I know but, all the scientists say it is true except the ones we cancelled, and they are not scientists anymore because we cancelled them.
More cynical, poisonous manipulation of “the people”– aka the pawns in the game — by the monied power players of the world. The monsters with no conscience playing on the sympathies of good people who can be manipulated into some form of defenseless self-sacrifice. Monstrous!
Alaska deserves better that this idiot! Find a conservative that will represent Alaskans!
We’re hoping Trump’s choice of Kelly Tshibaka will do better for us. We’re hoping to replace Don Young as well. Pray for a clean election.
There is one. Sara Palin.
says the lady senator from a state that gives each person a check every year from oil taxes
They’ve been trying to take that away from us and keep the money for the state government. Apparently the AK legislature is so bad at budgeting, that Alaskans have to pay more for their continued spending.
The legislature has homes in Hawaii courtesy of the taxpayer.
I hope her plane crashes. Ted Stevens was no saint, but he got railroaded by a corrupt DOJ. Murkowski is trash. Alaskan’s fell for the ad campaign she waged against the Republican candidate.
Her daddy appointed the ugly woman to his seat. He wanted to keep the money in the family.
Why do Americans have to suffer? Drill, Baby, Drill, flood the market with oil and make the Russkies suffer! They have it all backwards. Hopefully, Alaskans understand this and will show her the door this year!
Even native Alaskans want them to drill. They get the biggest kick backs from it. The feds claim drilling will hurt native lands. Alaska is so big that nobody occupies those lands. The closest village residents get paid to exist. Free healthcare, free housing.
The Feds claim a lot of things. And the Feds lie.
Such a disconnect does not happen by accident.
Hard to imagine anyone voting for Murkowski.
The American people have allowed corruption to destroy this great nation in plain sight.
Hard to imagine even President Trump being able to restore this nation, given the evil that has pervaded every aspect of her.
Two key Senators that are working together for China.
I have NO respect from this woman. She expects the people of her state and others to do with far less while she throws money around. She is involved in the total destruction of the economy and jobs for the people in this country. She can take a flying leap, as far as I am concerned.
not going to punish russia. russia can be self-sustaining, although it would be felt. they would have to cut telephone communication which can still be used for trading; but slower
Wonder how long it has been since she had to pay for a tank of gas……and if she even knows how to fill her own tank.
the stupid…it burns…
high oil prices HELPS Russia! (and Iran, and Venezuela, and a lot of other bad people too)
she knows this. but chooses to sell the other narrative, knowing it’s a lie, but thinking this will help her politically.
Or you could just import our Canadian oil through the Keystone Pipeline. Hell, eastern Canada could import western Canadian oil through the Energy East Pipeline. But no, North America has to continue to import oil from the rest of the world because of climate concerns; because apparently only emissions from Canadian and American oil has any effect on climate.
