Biden's serially lies about energy prices

 Jack Hellner:

Joe Biden and the Democrats have declared war on oil companies since the day Biden took office, and from that moment on, oil prices have spiraled.

Yet not once has Biden taken blame for the ruination of the poor, the middle class, and small businesses that have taken the brunt of the higher prices.  Prices at the pump, now running at a $4.24 a gallon on average, are more than twice the price of the $1.99 a gallon average seen in March 2020, according to AAA.

This didn't happen because of Vladimir Putin, as Biden claims.

First, Biden called the price increases transitory.

Then he and his administration claimed that his good economic policies caused growth and the demand caused the price increases.  What a joke.  We had high demand throughout Trump's term and...low prices.

Then he said the oil companies were greedy and blamed them for the high prices.  Isn't it amazing that the greedy oil companies weren't that greedy while Trump was president?

Then he started blaming Putin for all inflation even though it has been occurring since he took office.

For a while, Biden was begging Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, and other countries to produce more.  Now he is telling domestic oil companies to do their duty and produce more.  Why would oil executives step up production when Biden and the Democrats continue their threats to destroy them?

Biden becomes more pathetic and dangerous every day.

It is a shame that most of the media continue to support this dangerous, incompetent man.

Biden decries oil companies putting profits ahead of production, and now he calls on Congress to impose fees on oil companies to counter rising gas prices.

...

In 2019, the dimwit Biden said oil executives should be jailed (not a joke) and we were all going to die if we kept using fossil fuels, and now he's begging them to produce more.  I wonder why these executives don't respond to his rants of how bad they are as he begs them to produce more while threatening them with more regulations and higher taxes.

...

Biden deliberately drove up prices to financial punish drivers and get them to accept his crappy Big Green agenda.  It was his administration's policy and his Secretary of Energy laughed when asked about the high prices.  His Secretary of Transportation in a "let them eat cake" moment suggested just get electric cars.  Now that is not seen as feasible he is lashing out at producers and blaming them for his policy mistakes.  Biden and the Democrats deserves at shellacking at the polls for their energy policies.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. 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...

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
