On day one of his being in office, Biden shut down the Keystone pipeline. He made us dependent on enemy nations for gas. Gas prices were going up before Russia invaded Ukraine. Biden is looking for a scape-goat.

On that very same day, he issued an Executive Order allowing physically stronger transgender men, to compete against women in high school, and college sports. Why does he hate women? He has never even once been recognized, for an intelligent decision. Maybe that's why so many people detest him.

The keystone pipeline would have had little to no effect on gas prices. The oil moving through it was not dedicated to gasoline or fuel but various products and other exports meaning that its impact on fuel prices is low, While it would have increased oil flow to facilities, its price change was min

Prices are based on supply and demand. While the global unrest has played a role, Biden has made the supply of domestic oil less with his policies. Gas prices were going up since he said he would not renew any additional drilling on US territory.

The pipeline needs to be reopened. He has a tool very much within his reach to be able to stop the rising prices and provide relief at the pump to Americans. He is simply choosing not to use that tool to try to help America’s economy. Despicable!

His energy mismanagement, has not only raised gas prices, but also all energy prices. It has additionally given money and power to Putin, which has enabled the invasion of Ukraine. His actions are also causing inflation, which is leading to a recession, and possibly another depression. FJB/LGB now..

Obviously, the one million plus dollars, that Hunter scammed Ukraine out of, was not not enough for Joe to act like a real man.

Biden refuses to backtrack on Green Energy agenda to the demise of the working people of this country. He knows he's not going to be reelected, so he will do the will of the ones who will pay him the most and cover for his son's activities.

the question of the day should be: why are we buying foreign oil when we have enough domestic oil?

If you have a resource that makes your country energy independent, you fill strategic reserves, as you’re utilizing the America First to supply Americans first, then you sell your excess & make money for your home country so prices/taxes stay lower. When you buy an election, you get what you pd for!

Because the attempts by the media to lay blame elsewhere are disingenuous at best. Blatant lies at worst. Quit trying to instill your own narrative into your stories and people will start believing what you say again.

Profits are soaring for the oil companies, so I believe they are taking advantage of a pandemic on the one hand and starting/promoting antagonistic propaganda of other theories on the other.

The oil companies make their profits by efficiently converting crude oil to other materials. Such as gas, diesel, chemicals used for plastics. The price of crude doesn't affect their profits. The land owner or country selling the crude oil gets the profit of high crude oil prices. Nice try though.

However, the higher fuel costs are, the more money Biden steals from us, in the form of taxes.

Why are the marines any different than any other branch of service that gets deployed in U.S. As a veteran- I have been deployed for things in U.S. over the years- it’s not just for protecting us in foreign countries Our oath of office says we will protect foreign and domestic

Newsom, Bass and Waters can't handle the situation. I believe the Marines should be a last resort but certainly an option on the table.

What do you do when a foreign body rises up on American soil. You make an example out of it. Never understood the waving of other countries flags in these situations. They are sending you back to the country you are so proud of. Im hoping they're treated like armed combatants.

This is an insurrection, with guns and devastating fires. They should all be arrested and treated with same due process as the Jan 6th people.

Would you be saying the same thing if Biden had deployed the Marines on Jan 6th? Even the National Guard seems a little over the top, but Newsom is 100% responsible for the chaos. He needs to be held accountable for not supporting ICE and the arrests of the criminals that broke into our country.

This is not an insurrection! The police set their own car on fire from what I heard. These protests were peaceful for the most part until Felon47 got involved. They did cause a lot of damage with the graffiti, but no one was injure bc of it. Maybe Felon47 should have sent 700 Maries like your post o

You heard they destroyed their own police cars. I would suggest you change the place where you get your lies from. They burned they're own cars. Wow. TDS is real.

No, the Marines should NOT be deployed to States against their own people.

Not that it may not be warranted, but sets a bad precedence when, not if, a real socialist tricks his/her way into the power and justifies deploying our military against her citizens to 'keep the peace'. I voted for Trump, but lets call 'balls and strikes', he does not get a pass for this behavior.
