As did the righties when Trump was in office. Do you want Free Enterprise or not?

@Pitchblue oh...by free enterprise, you mean government driven (Biden) EOs that shut down the XL pipeline and ended new drilling leases to reduce domestic supply, and shift reliance on more expensive foreign oil. That sort of "free enterprise"?

@BizSuitStacy The US is producing more oil under Biden than we were under Trump.

@Theyitis no

@BizSuitStacy It wasn’t a question, it was a statement of fact.

@Theyitis which is wrong

@BizSuitStacy Read it and weep. https://www.reuters.com/graphics/USA-BIDEN/OIL/lgpdngrgkpo/
@BizSuitStacy This is all Republican Talking Points you learned on Fox or Newsmax. You are a parrot. There was no XL pipeline to shut down. Right now the US has more domestic supply than ever before. The US sells a lot of that supply to other countries.

@Theyitis you should try reading too...it pretty stupid providing a source that contradicts itself."
"In Biden's case, Russia's invasion of Ukraine pushed oil and gas prices so high that many producers worldwide made record profits, not just those in the United States. The global economic recovery that followed the darkest days of the COVID pandemic also rapidly pumped up demand for fossil fuels."
Except that oil and gas prices were peaking before Putin invaded.

@BizSuitStacy Those can both be true (and they are). Gas prices were increasing because people were starting to drive again after the Covid lockdowns, and then they rose some more when Russia invaded Ukraine.
BizSuitStacy · M
@Theyitis gas prices sky rocketed the moment Biden pushed over the 1st domino signing off on the EOs. We were already in covid lockdown
Check the CPI...gas was 75% higher under Biden than under Trump by the time Putin invaded. Your problem is the data doesn't support the male bovine manure you're shovelling.

@BizSuitStacy The left conveniently blames Russia for all their failings. Hell, they even
blamed Hunters laptop on Russia.

@DogMan Russia has been "the fall guy" behind so many deep state scams. Russia has changed since the end of cold war era, but western propaganda has not.
