Biden and his administration lie about their responsibility for restricting oil and gas production

...

The Energy Committee put Haaland on the spot: Biden claims that he’s doing everything he can, so what exactly is he doing?

Haaland and her deputy Tommy Beaudreau claimed they were working on a five-year plan.
...

The Chair of the Committee, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) pulled out an announcement from the Interior Department which he said had just been issued to not agree to any new leases. So, it looks like you’re going to shut everything down, Manchin said to her.
...

That left Haaland stuttering and unable to respond. “My God,” Manchin said. “It shuts it down. It shows what your intent is.”

So, not only don’t they have their plan ready when they were supposed to have it in hand, it sounds like the true plan is to shut everything down.

Meanwhile, Joe Biden is ridiculously reaching out to Venezuela, when we could produce more oil here — if only Biden allowed it

Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) asked Haaland a simple question: whether it was more environmentally friendly for Venezuela to produce oil and gas or us to do so?
...

The answer is a simple one — it’s more environmentally friendly for us to do it. But she doesn’t want to say that–maybe because even the climate excuse doesn’t justify them going around producing it in the U.S. to reach out to Venezuela? But her answer is “I’m not an economist” or a “scientist.” Seriously, how incompetent can she be? She’s not an economist, like Ketanji Brown Jackson isn’t a biologist, so she can’t tell us what a woman is.

Haaland couldn’t even answer some basic questions without aides desperately slipping answers to her during the hearing.
...

This administration is deliberately restricting the production of energy in the US and because the polls show Americans are angry about the resulting increase in the price of gas they are looking for a man behind a tree to blame.  The police of the Biden administration is a disgrace and so are the people responsible for it.
