Biden's anti-energy policies exposed


Sen. Hawley nails the Energy Secretary on Biden's anti-energy policies.  It is clear that from day one of the Biden administration they were determined to drive up the price of fossil fuels and limit the supply of energy.

Red States reports on Sen. Sullivan's detailing of what the Biden administration has done in the last three weeks to limit production of oil and gas:

Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-AK), who comes from the oil-rich state of Alaska, blew the whistle on that by listing what the Biden Administration has done, just in the last three weeks that has impeded oil and gas production during his questioning of Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm.

“There has been a comprehensive hostility to the energy sector by this Administration,” Sullivan declared. “I watch it every day.” Sullivan detailed how prolific Alaska is for oil. But the Biden Administration and Sec. Haaland has taken half the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska (NPRA) designated by Congress for oil and gas drilling “off the table.”

“That is not focused on increasing supply,” Sullivan said. Sullivan’s second example was Cook Inlet Basin. At the last minute, Biden canceled the lease sale,

Sullivan explained. “That is exactly the opposite of getting supply on the market.”

Finally, there was the new Council on Environmental Quality NEPA regulations that Sullivan said were meant “to kill the production of American energy.”

“That’s what you guys just did,” Sullivan concluded. “Do you have a response to any of this?” He said Biden, from day one, wanted to stop everything in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR), but he can’t do that because Congress has decided there should be two lease sales there. He can’t stop it.

Granholm had no real response. She couldn’t, since it was all true. Her response was basically, “It’s not my lane.”

...

What Americans should do in response to these anti-energy policies if vote against every Democrat on the ballot.

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

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
