Biden seeks a scapegoat for energy prices he is responsible for

 Washington Examiner:

As rising prices at the pump continue to squeeze wallets, President Joe Biden has stepped up attacks on oil corporations that he claims are charging motorists more just to pad their pockets.

It was the latest scapegoat for the high fuel costs that have put political pressure on Democrats. Biden and his aides had previously attempted to pin the blame on Russian President Vladimir Putin, whose invasion of Ukraine prompted Biden to ban imports of Russian oil and gas earlier this month.
...

Biden limited the supply and his energy secretary laughed when questioned about the rising prices.  While Biden was trying to inflict pain on the American consumers to get them to accept the New Green Deal, he was also helping to fund Putin's war in Ukraine.  By limiting the supply he pushed up the world price of oil and gas and enriched Putin and the Russians. 

It was one of the colossal blunders of all time.  Blaming the oil companies for something he did is typical Biden.

The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
