Biden's war against US energy production

 Fox Business:

The ad – titled "Which is it?" – features remarks from Biden, Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm, and U.S. special presidential envoy for climate John Kerry when they dismissed oil production in the United States and compares those statements to more recent remarks they have made regarding the importance of increasing oil supply.

"So which is it," the advertisement questions. "We need clear support for domestic energy production."

The ad will be televised in Washington, D.C., and 12 states – Arizona, California, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Washington – as Americans continue to feel the pain at the pump.

In a statement released this week, Thomas Pyle, president of the American Energy Alliance, claimed the Biden administration has "done everything it possibly can to strangle domestic energy production," saying Biden's plan to release a million barrels of oil per day for the next six months from the U.S. Strategic Petroleum reserve is not a "sustainable plan to reduce prices."

Pyle also gave similar comments during a recent interview with FOX Business. "In spite of their rhetoric, the Biden Administration is doing absolutely nothing to encourage the production of American natural gas and oil. In fact, they are making it more difficult," Pyle said at the time. "The pain at the pump is real and this Administration is making it worse, not better."

The Western Energy Alliance is also pushing back against the Biden administration over its unwillingness to increase domestic oil supply. On Tuesday, Western Energy Alliance President Kathleen Sgamma will testify in a hearing by the Senate Commerce Committee.

"President Biden is attempting to shift blame for high gasoline prices away from his climate change policies, which were designed specifically to eliminate federal oil production and make energy prices necessarily skyrocket, onto American producers," Sgamma said in a statement shared with FOX Business. "I look forward to testifying on Tuesday to discuss how his very policies are suppressing American production and how they could be reversed."
...

Biden's deliberate energy policy is to increase the financial pain for US energy consumers to get them to accept the Big Green crap he and the left are pushing.  His energy Secretary laughed when asked about the high prices they were causing.  Biden is now engaged in the politics of fraud trying to blame everyone but himself for the results of his bad 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
