Gasoline is now at the highest price ever recorded. The average cost of a retail gallon of unleaded gasoline hit $4.173, according to the American Automobile Association, with many regions now far exceeding that price. It is not uncommon to see $5/gal gasoline in many areas.
Against this backdrop, Joe Biden announced today that his administration is banning the import of oil, liquified natural gas (LNG) and coal from Russia. [We do not import LNG or coal from Russia, so that political point is moot.] You can read the executive order HERE.
The executive order also bans any U.S. entity from investing or facilitating the investment of Russian energy development. That section explains why there were earlier reports of Oil companies withdrawing from Russia. They were obviously given a heads up.
The way the order is currently written, and a lot of it has to do with extremely generous interpretations by the U.S. Treasury Dept., it would appear that any energy company currently operating in the U.S. cannot simultaneously be operating in Russia (or be part of the subsidizing and insurance network that supports energy development in Russia). The Treasury interpretations here are fraught with complexity.
The part that matters is boiled down in this section:
(i) the importation into the United States of the following products of Russian Federation origin: crude oil; petroleum; petroleum fuels, oils, and products of their distillation; liquefied natural gas; coal; and coal products;
(ii) new investment in the energy sector in the Russian Federation by a United States person, wherever located; and
(iii) any approval, financing, facilitation, or guarantee by a United States person, wherever located, of a transaction by a foreign person where the transaction by that foreign person would be prohibited by this section if performed by a United States person or within the United States.
(b) The prohibitions in subsection (a) of this section apply except to the extent provided by statutes, or in regulations, orders, directives, or licenses that may be issued pursuant to this order, and notwithstanding any contract entered into or license or permit granted prior to the date of this order. (LINK)
The European Union cannot cut themselves off from Russian oil and natural gas. Europe relies on imports for 90% of its gas and 97% of its oil products. Russia supplies 40% of Europe’s gas and a quarter of its oil. {source} Essentially, China and the EU will continue to be the largest purchasers of Russian energy.
The White House is looking to replace Russian oil by purchasing from Venezuela, Iran and, to a lesser extent, Saudi Arabia. In some ways, you can look at this oil purchase shift as a continuation of President Obama’s intent to exfiltrate American wealth. Iran and Venezuela become the favored nations again, as they were in the Obama-Biden administration 2009-2017.
Ideologues who have always operated in the background of Biden are working on the same program to consign the U.S. economy as a permanent “service driven economy.” The difference now is the rapid speed of their policy outcomes, because Biden is disposable.
Biden-Obama, and all that come with them, are working through an ideological plan. All of these consequences and outcomes are features, not flaws.
$7/gal gas is likely this summer (if not sooner), that’s around $180 to $200 barrel oil price.
$10/gal gas appears to be their ‘Build Back Better‘ target price with oil around $250/barrel.
The Russia-Ukraine ‘crisis’ just helps them justify and speed up the process they already had underway. I would argue the speed of their action is driven by their concern of a mid-term election outcome that might impede the bigger objective.
Well when you take an election by fraud and the losing party can’t even look into it, I guess you run as fast as you can the wrong way. That way you get maximum damage
Or WON’T look into it. RINOs don’t want Trump back anymore than the Dems do.
RINOs didn’t want him in the first place. Explains all their cloak and daggers behind closed doors.
RINO’s don’t want America First back either, with or without Trump.
I watched the Neocons/Rino’s betrayal of America during the Clinton treasonous & criminal administration, even allowing them to steal the 96 primaries and general elections, open our borders and give away our manufacturing along with nuclear,military, and industrial technologies. They have been doing this to us for decades, except most people did not notice until PDJT & MAGA. Another reason to thank PDJT
for the most part the traitorous RINO GOPe are helping BLOCK investigations into the 2020 election
What “losing party”? The GOP was in on it.
2020 was a coordinated overthrow of a duly-elected President – OF THE PEOPLE outside the Beltway.
This Government is illegitimate as far as I’m concerned.
Yup, what’s that saying, “in times of conflict, we remember what our adversaries said, but remember more the silence of our purported allies.” Here we are again.
And if anyone thinks that “red waves” in 2022 or 2024 will change anything they are in for a rude, very rude surprise.
Do ya think if you questioned Pete about how electricity is generated in this country he could give you a satisfying answer? That’s my one question….where does all of the electricity come from? Who pays for it? Is it free? How much will YOU be allotted for kilowatt hour? Where will you get your road tax dollars if you don’t tax gas?
I am just beyond words…
Let me clear that up for ya. Food comes from the grocery store and electric comes from the outlet you plug into. Everybody knows that 😂
Did you just quote Kamala?!?
AOC!
Thanks and I was starting to believe the left that meat comes from the store.
I’m on my hamster wheel right now
Its healthy, and it puts electricity in my outlets.
But I’ve got to go and hand pump some water into the wash basin
If only someone could invent a machine where I could run on the hamster wheel
AND hand pump water at the same time!
Someday.
He’s an idiot.
No, but to be a successful leftist, you have to pretend not to know things. Ref: Hillary and Muller begin questioned by Congress.
He would say: ” What me worry?”
Our Great American President Donald J Trump was a swami as well.
Funny, no? On the same day Boy Ignorant uttered this, that thing that is the VP talked about how the truckers were causing hideous pollution. I’m pretty sure I see a connection there between those comments and the maniacal push for destroying our country completely as fast as they can.
But Howdy Doodey Petey does not know real environmental science. Real Environmental science says that “Human population growth is the leading cause for environmental degradation, increased pollution, and increased Green House Gases”.
So guess where increased human population comes from in almost every Western nation and especially our country? Immigration. So you cannot be “for” the environment and “for” immigration. They are in direct conflict with each other. They are liars and the environmental movement/climate change movements are frauds.
Green is red!
Ty for the opportunity to air out my truth exposing the Green frauds. Cheers
Happy to oblige, Colkitto. None of their pronouncements make any sense if anyone with microphone had the brains to use the Socratic method. No one has forced them to explain their logic or the consequences as a result of their dimwitted ideology.
…. They are liars and the environmental movement/climate change movements are frauds ….
And that has become their Godless and redemption-free “religion.” Whose only product, ever, has included their psychopathologically-spiraling into the depths of crazed and unmitigated evil — and unmitigated evil’s subsequent projection.
All the truckers need do is STOP TRUCKING
… to end the Kamala’s “hideous pollution”
… until Beijing Biden’s Demo☭rats “build back better”
… or Restore President Trump’s Energy Dominance program.
And do you know? I think they’d be just fine with that. The more misery the better as far as they’re concerned.
We’re all good at recognizing the problems but what needs to be be done will require sacrifice. It’s past time to strike. Where are the churches, when’s the right time to join the truckers. Shut down this government. Shut down transportation, bring the nation to a crawl. I’m sorry to state the obvious truth. I can’t shower away the fallout, that’s if we make it through what the next phase is delivered. This is another phony war created to gain wealth from the hard working Americans who pay taxes to support this illegal government. If now is not the time. When is?
Electric cars are finally acceptable. Who wouldn’t enjoy a car that accelerates as fast as a Tesla? (if they can afford one)
BUT…
Anybody who thinks they are being “green” or producing “zero emissions” for driving one is seriously deluded.
Most of them are powered by coal, when you get right down to it.
Also, has anybody seriously considered the impact to our electrical grid if EVERYBODY was driving an electric car?
Electricity won’t be cheap, that’s for sure!
Reminds me of a guy I knew who used to brag about running his diesel on free fry oil. Sure, it works for one guy in a city with 100 fast food joints
Not so much if EVERYBODY tried to do it.
Not to mention: toxic heavy metals in the batteries; battery disposal issues; extraction (mining) of raw materials to build batteries; battery requirement for cobalt, one of the most toxic materials on the planet, mined by teenage labor in the Congo who then die very early due to toxic exposure levels.
Isn’t it nice to know that these good intentioned liberals are such moral people?
Correction…CHILD labor…living to be teenagers if they’re lucky 😓
For sure, those burning lithium-ion batteries took down thousands of Bentleys, Lamborghinis and Porsches on the Felicity Ace . $ 150 million . Not to mention, seeing one catch fire in a parking lot the other day and the Fire Department didn’t have CO2, ABC dry chemical, powder graphite, copper powder or sodium carbonate to put it out quickly.
Yep, these are real Einsteins at the helm.
a deep delve into the environmental impact from mining the raw materials to its eventual demise reveals an EV transport is MORE damaging to its surroundings from birth to death than a similar study of the HIGHLY efficient internal combustion engine in a modern automobile
As soon as we have 8 dollar a gallon gas some will get an electric car. Then BOOM windmills won’t turn and it will cost 500 dollars to charge that car to go 100-200 miles on flat, smooth roads depending upon the temperature outside.
We won’t have to drive because the store shelves will be empty and restaurants will have no food to serve.
And when they turn off your power, it becomes a lawn ordiment. Hollywood is already full of these.
Gas is over $6 here, and has been over $5 for a long time. Stop saying “it’s not uncommon for over $5 in some places”…. it’s been OVER $5 in Calif. for a long time. Get up to speed! It’s over $6 now, heading towards $7. Where do you people live?? /sarc
You may not know what “/sarc” means?
thank the COMMUNIST government there….remember Jan 2020 a $0.75/gal TAX went into effect for road repair….NONE of it went to that of course
Road repair? We just built a multi-$billion trolley system in San Diego so people without driver’s license can get to better emergency rooms, apparently. Roads don’t matter
God bless Mike Lindell. He is Prometheus rolling the rock up the the hill while constantly having it slip back down.
Sisyphus…?
it’s a hot rock
Well played, Stu!
Every step of the way Trump spoke truth. We have to get him reelected, and we have to be the majority in those counting rooms!
As I recall….President Trump WAS reelected…The day We lost the USA
For $55,000……
“We’re sorry Mr. Smith, but your comment on Twitter resulted in a reduction of your social credit score to a negative value. Please wait the required 48 hrs., and without any further social media activity, you will be able to charge your electric vehicle. Thank you, Social Media Digital Monetary Security Team”
I do hear over the media, the woke left raving about this being a golden opportunity to start phasing out fossil energy. The present situation, is, for them, a godsent with their long time dream of the USA finally being just another country among others.
In the meantime, Russia, China and Iran think in terms of empires.
D’ya remember when everyone was just giddy with excitement that Tesla was going to build a “Model 3” ecar that would sell for the low, low price of $30k !? And the orders and deposits piled up. Then, when the actual Model 3’s started rolling off the assembly line they were ALL selling in the $40k range … because none of the shitty base models were being produced? And now … the price of the “affordable” BASE Model 3 has risen to $55k? Almost DOUBLE the originally hyped low, low, MSRP?
surrrrrrre Pete … we’ll all just mortgage our homes to buy an electric car … then pay through the nose to charge it at home every night. Hey! Who forgot to plug the car in last night? Now I can’t go to work
Democrats hate America!!!
Most Republicans too
Will the $8 gas impede the delivery of truckloads of fake ballots come November?
No…we as taxpayers will be funding our own demise.
You have my nomination for post of the day
Green Is Dead: EU Energy Roadmap Has Shifted From Decarbonization To Energy Security, Goldman Warns – 8 Mar 2022
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/green-dead-eu-energy-roadmap-has-shifted-decarbonization-energy-security-goldman-warns-0
Discussing how the Russian invasion will result in a “dramatic reshape of the global energy landscape for the coming decades”, Goldman writes – at the very end of the note – that:
The energy shock created by Russia will change energy policy and planning in coming years, in our view. The EU will soon announce its energy roadmap and has reportedly shifted its short-term focus from decarbonization to energy security, likely relying for now on more coal, more nuclear, and gas generation, and overall allowing for more carbon emissions [consistent with the sharp sell-off in European carbon prices over the past week of nearly 30%].
More like “useful idiot”…
“How DARE you?”
….and Dutch and British nitrogen fertilizer plants stopped production earlier due to high natural gas prices.
they are discovering that unreliables don’t work
EU was already failing to meet its self-set emission reduction targets where the US was hitting all of ours as we accessed more NatGas and its CLEANER burning alternative
IMO, Beijing Biden just triggered the world’s countries to become NATION STATES
… redirecting their budgets, laws, regulations, resources and people
… to develop National Self-Sufficiency and Regional Alliances that achieve
• Energy Independence
• Food Independence
• Financial Independence
• Industrial & Semiconductor Independence
• Technology Independence
… None of which can be cancelled by the WEF or USA.
Agreed!
Individuals in the USA have already been working on it. We’re known as preppers, and FJB!
Nuclear power plants were shut down, but would not be dismantled until 40 years had passed. This was presented as a security measure, but I think it is all part of a larger plan. The Dutch (puppet) government has announced plans to build four new nuclear power plants and the electricity net is being upgraded everywhere. Glass fiber internet connections and 5G are also becoming the standard. It’s sickening to know that this is all part of the ‘Smart City’ total surveillance scheme.
Germany just closed two Nuclear power plants in January. The Government is cutting down hundreds of hundred year old trees for new, nasty bat and raptor killing windmills. And they have been buying hundreds of thousands of tons of wood pellets from American Trees (North Carolina is a big supplier) for their converted coal fired plants to burn. Wood chips burned count, in some messed up bureaucrats mind, as RENEWNABLE Energy like a windmill. Trees are 50% Carbon stored in plants that take up the CO2 we breath out and produce oxygen for us. Trees are good windmills are bad.
These trees being sacrificed “for the Greater Good” are in a forest known as the Hansel and Gretel Forest, a sacred place for the sensible people of German who have been protesting to no avail. The abhorrent German authorities goose stepping over the massive protests without a glance backwards have no interest in preserving that which took a thousand years to grow and cannot be resurrected.
Destruction of the earth to save the earth. Moronic, imbecilic ideologues with their false god “climate change”. I can’t bear to think of it.
We are having the green new deal forced upon us . Our current govt of grifters is dangerously naive to the future.
I would argue that the general population of the US is the naive party.
Agree! Has everyone noted the numbers STILL wearing face diapers? (which was the First of the Controls)
It’s gonna be time to shut her down soon, if we are going to make it through this indefinite “Dark Winter”.
We Need Trump Back BIGLY…
we need a revolution. and if a lot of pols were eliminated in the process….oh well.
Tomorrow would be nice. But he’ll need enforcers for his changes or the bureaucrats will ignore him just as they did before.
It’s driven by commodity traders, not an actual change in supply or demand. Just announce an opening of ANWAR and restoration of US operations and prices will drop.
One additional thought. We are dealing with spiritual warfare and the side of evil has been planning and moving for along time.
In contrast the side of good doesn’t even know what’s going on or have just recently began to learn what were up against.
We have been lulled to sleep.
The good news is all the plans of the wicked are not guaranteed to be successful. As Sundance has said through sand in the gears and fast and pray and teach.
I don’t know if it’s because we were lulled to sleep…. in order to do these things that the libs are doing you have to be evil & good people don’t usually think evil thoughts, much less act on them. Kinda the you don’t know what you don’t know scenario.
I remember hearing that a lie can travel half way around the world before truth can put on its boots. Nowadays probably twice around the world.
I agree with you, but history shows us that evil can be quite successful and for a long time before it is finally defeated.
The chronology of the earth is a mere blip on the eternity scale (God’s timeline) but we humans are in for months or years of suffering. Even the Bible tells us so.
The ‘7 year’ clock may have just started, but I’d be willing to bet that people believed the same thing at the beginning of World War I and World War II. We just don’t know. (Matthew 24:36)
We win in the end but the trip from here to there doesn’t look like it’s going to be fun.
I always think about WWI and WWII in the context of End Times. No one does know.
Half of our country are only into virtue signaling how great they are by 1) wearing a mask 2) getting endless
vaccinations, 3) sympathy for the corrupt Ukranian government by sending in their $25.00 to some
Ukranian relief fund and content to know nothing about anything else.
They have been programmed to believe that Russia is the cause of everything that affects them; high
gas prices, empty food shelves at grocery stores, utility gas bills doubled and 20-40% higher prices
on most items we need/want to purchase. Russia! Russia! Russia!
Great post.
Unfortunately its more than half the country. At least 60%, but possibly 70%
Well Said…..Amen
Keep pushing swamp rats.
Just remember when the pendulum swings back it will be twice as hard.
waiting… waiting…
Will we be seeing Russia selling oil to China, China selling oil to the U.S.A. with a markup?
Biden is the cobbler whose own children walk around with holes in the soles of their shoes.
There are two meanings for “cobblers”… the American one, and in Britain it means something else entirely (rather vulgar), which I would say to that demented halfwit if I got the chance.
So Maduro and the Mullahs get a windfall care of American families, so they can buy Russian made arms to which to attack America in the future if they so choose.
America is being run by a criminal enterprise.
“care of”…. Perhaps better said as “at the expense of”…
Wait how is ramping up gas prices going to help them in the midterms?
Can’t afford to drive yourself to the polls? Mail in ballots will take care of that. We all know how that worked out last time.
It won’t, its why they are rushing to do it all now!
Dominion. They don’t care what the voters think, we have no standing don’t you know.
Brilliant!
😅 wonder if a mask in the tank would help…
We are all in this together!
cute..

Thanks for the info.
This tells me the fix is in and the Dems are not afraid of the elections this fall. Either they have something up their sleeve to prevent the election entirely or cheating is set and they know they will not fail.
Ridiculous and meaningless virtue signaling! Oil bbls are fungible Europe or China will buy them so Russia won’t be hurt and we will buy the equivalent from some other producer like Iran/Venezuela! If we don’t replace those bbls then $10 a gal for gasoline will get here sooner than even the Democrats had hoped/planned! One thing is certain ChiCom Joe will do nothing to increase exploration and production of oil and natural gas here in the United States! Just got 3/4 of a tank of gas for my truck and it cost $98! Won’t be taking any trips when gasoline is that expensive!! We’re watching the purposeful destruction of the country’s economy by the Democrats using the Green New Deal/climate change hoax as the pretext! God help us! Hosanna!
$10 gas will mean U.S. economy essentially stops.
Oh no way ChiCom Joe promised all those massive high paying new green energy jobs that will come into play with the Green New Deal!/s
I’m sure McConnell and his collaborators are in the corner, making chortling noises about their clever treason on the American people.
Not by himself he didn’t
I daresay the sticker has the wrong guy’s picture…
“Against this backdrop, Joe Biden announced today that his administration is banning the import of oil, liquified natural gas (LNG) and coal from Russia. [We do not import LNG or coal from Russia, so that political point is moot.”
Sine Biden is such a failure as a President, he is starting a new career as a comedian. Same thing as Zelensky, but in reverse order.
Awaiting the electric vehicle mandate.
Do the gene therapy treatments (jabs) have some btu’s that can be used for a (non human) vehicle?
(it might be a challenge to store the therapy in subzero temperature conditions, but…) …does it burn?… or is it limited to having downsides, short and / or long term afflictions to humans ? … under the guise of treating a man-made virus, that can be otherwise treated at a lower cost and higher success )
/s
Let’s see…
Currently, electric vehicles account for around 2% on US roadways.
What happens to the electrical grid and the price of electricity when the other 98% are forced to climb on board?
Where do we get the energy to even manufacture that many EVs?
Do the natural resources even exist to produce that many batteries?
The people pushing us into this dark corner are not stupid. They know what’s coming.
Hydrogen fuel is already forced upon the trucking companies. LA harbor is testing hydrogen fuel cell powered trucks. Again a power grab by BigCorp, eliminating competition.
DAF Trucks, from the Netherlands, has developed a truck with a hydrogen powered combustion motor. This already proven technique is far less costly and therefor many more truckers could stay in business.
It’s completely insane. Our power grid barely functions well as it is.
not enough requisite critical materials to make the EVs in the numbers they propose to say nothing of the lack of excess capacity in our grid for charging them
They will be glad for us to ride bicycles or small scooters
So tell me again, how many billions of dollars we need to keep providing to Germany and EU to protect them from Russia?
Venezuela is at least in our hemisphere. But favoring Iran over Russia? Seriously? I don’t particularly trust Russia, but I don’t anticipate Putin using oil money to fund terrorism operations in the US.
BTW I think it would be great to add one more arrow to that graph showing 11/3 as the low point — election day 2020. Gas prices starting rising the minute the phony results were announced.
Iran and Russia are joined at the hip.
Venezuela while having the world’s largest proven reserves has some of the dirtiest most sulfur laden Petroleum in the world as well…it takes special equipment to properly refine it
The VP of Venezuela is an Iranian.
There are more Iranians in positions like Governors/mayors in Mexico.
@JackPosobiec·1h
Don’t act surprised when Biden says the next phase in the ‘transition to the green economy’ is a tax on how many miles you drive, and blames it all on Russia
Great Reset moving into high gear
Any recently made auto already has a black box that registers the miles and “Everybody Knows” the Government can take over your auto anytime it so desires. Remember the Toyotas that sped up and killed everyone? Michael Hastings ? The one car crash, in France, that killed the man who perfected SCYTL, a vote counting machine like Dominion.
A bleak future – Plague, Hunger and War
Most of the middle class will not be going to work with these prices, therefore unemployment will skyrocket too. And, fathers will not allow their children to go hungry and crime will follow. The elite will become primary targets.
$7/gal gas is likely this summer (if not sooner), that’s around $180 to $200 barrel oil price.
$10/gal gas appears to be their ‘Build Back Better‘ target price, with oil around $250/barrel.
at $10 a $6,000 motorcycle getting 60 mpg will have a payback for me of about 6 months
Better double that.
Your $6,000 motorcycle will soon cost you $12,000
I can start producing rickshaws if you can find us some runners or cyclists.
The young men in my area are unavailable for work.
Frank! I’m sending you my job application for rickshaw, um, driver. Need some of that-there running after draconian mask mandates and “lockdown body.” 🤣 (FYI, “lockdown body” will hereinafter be known as: Newsom’s Disease.)
Too bad we can’t RECALL this SOB, i.e. Joe Biteme!
I’ve said it before and will say it again. This is all done purposly. I can tell you exactly where this is going.
Higher and higher gas prices, then gas shortages, food shortages, Economic War, Culture/Race War, External War either direct or proxy, next new variant, release of the next new mandated clot shots and massive unemployment, will then lead to US riots, Emergency Act, Marshall Law and suspension of the next US Elections.
The GOPe is in on it.
Sadly, maybe not sadly, nothing in the current destruction of America by the globalists should be a surprise. If as Christians, we believe the Bible, we’ve known for years that the anti-christ emerges to lead the one world government. How can there be a one world government if the US is not defeated from within? Since we can see the WEF and other globalist groups marching ahead with their objectives in creating this exact type of world, why should we as Christians in anyway think they won’t be successful at some point. Yes its painful to be looking in the eye of this evil, but surprised, no. The age old debate of pre, mid or post tribulation Rapture of Christ’s Church no longer appears to be something far in the future.
It’s post trib dear Treeper.
It’s going from inconvenience to gritty fast now.
Plan accordingly my friends.
This might not be exactly what happens, but make no mistake, this is the goal and they are doing everything they can to make it happen.
Martial, i.e., military law, not Marshall. Just to let you know.
Heck…. Putin must be rubbing his hands with glee…….. firstly he has more to give to China….. and its at a better price now.
Then we have him going cap in hand to Iran…Venezuela……and Saudi Arabia (who must in turn be laughing their socks off at this guy) are going to make him get down on his knees blow and think of the good old USA (doing the ONLY job Kamala Harris can do on her knees!)
And lastly he KNOWS there will now be a run on the banks in the USA…. there has to be…… the whole economy is no more than a pyramid scheme for heavens sake…. and if those loans start to default ????? Thats why this has brought forward the new global currency…and it wont be the dollar!
I think most here will realize that your second paragraph refers to Brandon, not Putin…?
The high fuel prices are to punish the Trump voters. It’s by design to try and beat and demoralize the producers. This evil will not beat me down, I feel pity for their souls and deep unhappiness that probably is their life.
The plan is to eliminate the middle class and bankrupt the country.
Great. Except Mittens, Lindseed, mitch mcconnell, Etc all AGREE with Biden. That’s why we needed Trump in office. He may have gone along with this, but he may not have.
So this happened just prior to Russian actions in Ukraine. Does this get put back into play?
Biden Administration Kills Israel-to-Europe Gas Pipeline
Why would it? Biden and the Dems hate Israel.
Is Biden now also president of Israel?
Why is he even allowed a voice in that?
Who will have the courage to impeach this administration? Lyndsey Graham needs his head kicked in Putin style!
Who would do that when things are going according to plan??? People need to realize, just about every politician we have in office wants all of this to happen. There is no courage to do anything because they all consider the admin to be successful. They are pushing us to the brink of insanity.
Right now the world is like a tea kettle that’s been sitting on the stove and the little whistle on top is starting to make noise. It’s only a matter of day/weeks before it flips it’s lid.
Hold on to your hats…
Well, as long as it saves one Urian kid, Americans have to make a sacrifice.
/sarc
Bungles Biden and his gang of nefarious misfits have caused this manmade disaster. If the election were not stolen we would probably paying $1.79 a gallon for unleaded, the economy would not be tanking, the Afghanistan disaster would not have happened, our border would be secure, the Iranian government would have collapsed and Russia would not dared to invade Ukraine.
DRILL BABY DRILL AND FINISH THE PIPELINE.
The oil exporting countries can just make the dividend check out to Hunter and the Big Guy.
Maybe there is a chance that some high quality lubrication can be imported to help ease the pain to the American taxpayers.
Right now the gas out of the pump was produced by Dec 21 oil which was $65/barrel. Just wait if the price stays at 120-130 dollars per barrel 90 days from now, we will see 8-10 dollar gas just in time for the summer vacation season.
It’s a feature and not a bug, just so everyone is clear. This has been the greenies’ wet dream for a long time. They are now going to get also the consequences of that, which is a permanent oblivion.
The greenies are mere patsies. They’ll be the first sent off for ‘re-education’ once they start getting uppity.
This is about implementing a bigger tyranny on the economic rubble.
“ Against this backdrop, Joe Biden announced today that his administration is banning the import of oil, liquified natural gas (LNG) and coal from Russia. [We do not import LNG or coal from Russia, so that political point is moot”.
Not so. Massachusetts & Hawaii both import Russian LNG. Massachusetts, Connecticut & R.I. Have to use LNG for heating because of only one small Natural Gas pipeline that can transport only about 25% of what they need. The LNG COMES FROM Siberia.
Hawaii is in worse shape – they use Russian LNG to power their Electricity along with Heating Oil.
It has to be imported because of The Jones Act, which is a Union Protectionist 1910 Law that says ONLY US Built ships, with majority US crew can travel between U.S. States.

Easy to find articles about Hawaii LNG & Shipments into Boston.

According to AP News, there is a 6 week phase in time. This sounds like Kabuki Theater to me.
under Trump we were EXPORTING LNG to Europe!
You forget… prior agreements, rules, contracts, AND Constitutional Restraint, are NOT recognized by this administration.
Two points here.
Russia has unequivocally prevailed in the Ukraine conflict. The Ukrainian CIA stooge government is now suing for terms. The Globalists are in panicked outrage.
And the installed puppet government of the US is intentionally destroying the American economy. To attempt to implement a tyrannical Green New Nightmare on its people. Every communist tyranny requires a failed generation, desperate to be ‘saved’ by the state. And that is what they are trying to cement — a failed generation. Millennials, here’s looking at YOU.
China, and its complete freedom-less, surveillance state culture and billion slaves, are the Globalists’ horse and world model now.
I sold McDonalds today after they said they were leaving Russia. Anti- business never solved anything.
Look at the chart at 11.30 into vid. All planned!
This is the WEF plan 100%
Congress is going to try to pass this $2T+ omnibus bill, bi-partisan of course. Here’s a few nuggets of what’s in it. Everyone should call their reps and demand they vote no or gas won’t be our only impending immediate issue!

This is exactly the way this stupid administration played the vaccine mandates back in September! Same stupid playbook.
Does our Congress have any votes or say in these decisions?
They told us they were planning on this way back when AOC introduced her green new deal and spouted off about all of it. Many Dems since then have said all the same things but PTrump was a roadblock until they decided to move him out of the WH by surrounding him with turncoats which locked up his ability to act and then stealing the election from all of us.
This isn’t a surprise to anyone who paid attention to them. Like their quasi queen Nancy, listen to what she says because she will tell you what’s going to happen under the left’s control. Remember, she was retiring and then changed her mind. Why? She will be staying for a reason and it’s not to lose. They have not been afraid to tell their plans since they got away with getting Obama installed and then showed how to do their thing with Obamacare.
Never look away or ignore what they say and do. They are not hiding anymore. On most things anyway.
I miss the 70’s with high gas prices, long lines and odd even days……
SAID NO ONE EVER
… and those leisure suits caused cancer, too.
Anyone remember a movie from the 1970’s about gas going to $10.00 after $200+ oil and it shut down America? I can’t remember the name.
Americathon?
I thought it was “Black Gold”, but that did turn up anything. Thanks.
I think that we as a nation should support building the coal to liquid plants that were planned along the Kentucky-West Virginia border about 10 years ago. The price of oil stayed too low for it to make economic sense. They should be built as part of an economic security plan, like the strategic petroleum reserve, and be kept at the ready for times like this.

Elections have consequences. Stolen elections aided and abetted by bill barr, mike pence and the GOPe Inc. have devastating consequences.
