The White House is pressuring OPEC and its allies to boost oil production in a bid to tackle rising gasoline prices — despite imposing tighter restrictions on US oil companies last year.Biden’s National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan issued a statement on Wednesday urging OPEC — the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries — to move faster to restore global supply of gasoline to pre-pandemic levels.“Higher gasoline costs, if left unchecked, risk harming the ongoing global recovery. The price of crude oil has been higher than it was at the end of 2019, before the onset of the pandemic,” Sullivan said.

Like everyone else in the world, they laugh at his demands.

...while he shuts down American production and pipelines. This is what we get when one party owns the voting machines.

Hey Joe, remember when the USA was energy INDEPENDENT way back on January 19, 2021. What happened January 20, 2021 that put an end to that independence so quickly, Joe?
Nah, you wouldn't remember. You can't even remember how many grandchildren you have or the name of your own Secretary of Energy.

Just a year ago, we were entirely self sufficient in all energy sources, especially oil, thanks to President Trump.
But, Traitor Joe has ordered much shutdown in US oil production. Now he wants us to support the Russians and the Muslims buy buying oil from them. Not a good idea.

Before long Biden will be buying oil from the Russians. Not too long ago during the Trump years the USA was energy independent, looks like those days are over. Before Election Day last November, gasoline here was selling for about 1.49 a gallon, now it is selling for 3.23 a gallon, quite a change. As Biden said during the run up to the election, he had a plan, and now it looks like he did!

Hunter must not have picked up his package yet. Joe doesn't know where Riyadh is and Hunter's too stoned to find it I suppose. No worries America. Gas will be back to 2 bucks when the figure this out.

Go out there, Joe, and demand those Opec guys to get off the White House lawn! Shake your bony fist and squint your eyes. Lift up your waistband and pound the ground one feeble foot at a time.
The most worthless president since.... He wins.

Apparently, there is a filter that has been instituted which disallows posting of a word for describing a group of people who propose to kill all Americans. I had to post "OPEC guys" instead of my more derogatory adjective regarding a dusting cloth and the attachment above an Arabic neck.

This is a wound that Joe Biden and Joe Biden alone inflicted on this country. We were energy independent until Inauguration Day January 2021. Once Biden signed his Executive Orders effectively killing the US oil industry and pipeline construction, he set this crisis in motion. If he wants to fix it fast all that he needs to do is rescind his ill conceived Executive Orders.

If you think that is weird, #13, you'll love that it is apparently derogatory....and blocked by the posting filters if you only type the first three letters of Japanese. The silly things that get blocked are just silly.
