Oil production is higher than under Trump. US government policy has almost zero to do with the high prices. It's a funny little thing called supply/demand due to the war in Ukraine.
Kinda like meat and rubber shortages during WW2.
Most simpletons on here don't comprehend how supply/demand effects prices. They just parrot Fox News BS.
You are an energy clown, you really think the USA depends on Russia for oil ? 😂😂 the 10% import from them is negotiated thru trade. We give you so much, you give us so much. That’s world trade and your supply demand analogy is horse shit when it comes gas and oil production. Get back on the bong 🍺

We don't get much of our oil from Russia but the rest of the world does.
Oil is a globally traded commodity which dictates the price per barrel paid on the world market.
Russia exports fertilizer to us and Ukraine/Russia make up about 30 percent of the world wheat production.
That all effects gas and food prices.
But a war in Europe and supply chain issues make less sense to you than Biden just choosing to keep prices high on purpose? Ok.

If you notice all the liberal commentators think she is innocent and everyone else is guilty. It amazes me how twisted they get everything.
If white...she is court martialed and dishonorable discharged. Period
Not familiar. But there's 350 million ppl in this country and you're terrified they're in your bushes waiting to jump out and get ya.
 
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) criticized the Republican National Committee (RNC) for its censure of Reps. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) and Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and broke with their language on the Jan. 6, 2021 riot, calling it a “violent insurrection.”

“It was a violent insurrection with the purpose of trying to prevent a peaceful transfer of power after a legitimately certified election. ... That’s what it was,” McConnell said.

The US govt doesn't drill. It's up to oil companies to get more out of the ground and to market which is difficult in places like the Permian Basin and Bakken Shale. They have no incentive for another boom and bust oil cycle and would perhaps rather cut costs, keep production steady and have much more efficient businesses.
The US govt does put regulations in place. It’s also the head of the US govt, in name only, that plans on zero fossil fuels by 2035.
If you were a company that deals in fossil fuel or an investor, would you dump money into new exploration now? Also, if oil prices don’t care about US production why is Biden depleting US emergency reserves by dumping a million barrels a day into the market?
 


Lol you know how the sun ball just locates and follows Latinos around
It must not bother them because they are flocking here in the thousands. Hispanics don't come from Alaska and Iceland. For the most part, they come from very hot climates. So whatever point the writer is trying to make is stupid

I'm an investor in oil companies. No need for new exploration when so much oil and gas in the ground has already been drilled and ready for consumption thanks to fracking.

Just like you he thought increasing the supply would drop prices. You guys are dead wrong so far.

Why bother?

'Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin, a Republican, hosted a series of Pride month events, angering several more liberal LGBTQ groups. '

'Last week, Youngkin also traveled to Virginia Beach to meet with the Log Cabin Republicans, a conservative LGBTQ group.'
There are conservative gay people who do not agree with the LGTBQ+ agenda.
 
This woman is a Moron!!!

That is not rare. The leftie cult loves to shame minorities who refuse to stay on the Dem plantation. See how she would not even listen? Kind of typical really. She does not want to hear how others she has stereotyped into a racially politics role are actually free thinkers.
 
Why conservatives financially support organizations that reject them as evil or haters is crazy to me. Professional sports can fade and die as far as I am concerned. I don’t care if we disagree. But, when you censor people for saying something so obvious and inoffensive or call my belief a disparaging term, we are done. See ya, wouldn’t wanna be ya.
 
Well supposedly the Patriot Front names have been released. Mugshots to come soon. I bet there are some piiiisssseeed off FBI people right now. They will have to build all new histories for their undercover crew.

 
So by your logic.... Biden has full control of gas/consumer prices but is purposefully raising them to the highest levels possible in order to get Republicans to take over Congress due to unhappy voters???
Brilliant!!!
Oil companies are not drilling more because Biden vowed he would bankrupt them by following the Green new deal. Why invest in something when you are that unsure of your future? Wake up.

I'm answering your questions. The supply has only increased since Trump left office. I think the chart proves that the gasoline price spike isn't affected by oil supply and when you couple that fact with the SPR releases, it proves US oil supply isn't the issue.
 
No one is saying do nothing. The problem is not the gun at all. The problem is the person, in their mind and heart. The ppl NOT willing to address the heart and mind problems are simply putting band aids on the amputee (at best) or are complete fascists (at worst).

First thing, get dads back in the homes. Until then, nothing will solve this. And i am not saying this alone will solve it. But it is necessary.
It's because morally bankrupt atheists have been successful in creating a society , starting with abortion, with no respect for the sanctity of life

False. You believe it because you need to. Your chosen leader and his admin have sucked so bad they need an excuse and you follow lock stepping all of the way.

Trump on Buchanan in 1999
'Look, he’s a Hitler lover,' Trump said on 'Meet the Press' in 1999. 'I guess he’s an anti-Semite. He doesn’t like the blacks. He doesn’t like the gays. It’s just incredible that anybody could embrace this guy'
Trump on Buchanan today


one of these days Trump has to learn that the internet forgets nothing

Since taking office, Trump has had time for:
- 6,129 tweets
- 154 golf club outings
- 56 campaign rallies
- dozens of tweets about the NFL, NBA, LeBron James or Steph Curry
- but no time to convince Mitch McConnell or Paul Ryan that his precious border wall was an emergency.
Speaking of 'Meet the Press',



[laughing]

This whole gas thing is a complete cluster F that isn't going to end anytime soon. It's' going to get way worse.

Like I tried to explain the other day, drillers cannot get parts. I don't know if that is by design or just another casualty of the supply chain, but drill rigs break down, a lot. I mean like every day. No parts, no drilling. If they don't drill they loose their leases. Then the government gets to charge them again for a new lease.

Also, all of the feeder companies are gone now. Oil industry depends upon those small fish to feed the big fish. That isn't happening now.

There are also too few transport companies left, and I don't see that one getting sorted out any time soon. That's why you don't cut off pipelines, stop their construction, or restrict hauling percentages. We also have a shipping container problem, as in we don't have enough port berths, or supertankers, and the law prevents them from shipping domestically. Yeah, maritime law keeps the US from using supertankers to ship oil from ports in LA to ports in CA. It costs to much to ship oil in tiny ships.

There is also a major refinery problem. The US produces the best oil quality in the world. It is light, pure, and sweet. The problem is US refineries need heavy sour. There aren't many refineries that can handle pure light sweet, and it seems none are being built, so we are forced to import oil to refine.

Most US oil is exported to Europe and Asia where they can refine sweet crude. That means we can suck every bit of oil out of the ground and it will mean F'all for the US. That is why US oil companies are enjoying record profits, but not profit margins. The cost to produce is still high.

The lynch pin in all of this is Europe. They import almost everything. They are basically a damned welfare state. Half of their diesel comes from the middle east and the other from Russia. One of those sources is gone, and I am pretty sure we are routing more diesel, gas, and NG their way, to keep the alive, which is causing the price here to rise. I haven't' looked into that, but Pilot J recently had a hearing where the railroad companies have cut back their deliveries by 20% - 50% with no explanation what so ever. I will try and find that video.

Testimony starts at 2:52. it's serious stuff.

 
Looks like some gop senators sold out the American people on gun "reform". I didn't read the story but I'm guessing mitt led the charge.
Actually it appears to be the mental midget Cornyn.

10 GOP Signed on:
Cornyn
Tillis
Blunt
Burr
Cassidy
Collins
Graham
Portman
Romney
Toomey

I will wait to see the law before I comment on that, but what pisses me off about this is that those responsible for the violence now know that violent actions will generate movement on gun laws. That is like rewarding a dog for biting you.
