White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Thursday sparred with a Fox News reporter over Biden’s decision to continue to buy oil from Russia while putting restrictions on domestic energy production.“As long as we’re buying Russian oil, though, aren’t we financing the war?” Fox News White House Correspondent Jacqui Heinrich asked Psaki.
“Well, Jacqui, again, it’s only about 10% of what we’re importing. I’ve not made any announcement about any decision on that front,” Psaki said.If Psaki can brush off the fact that Russia is only 10%

OMG the subterfuge and devious speak from this administration is staggering. 10%? How many billions does that work out to be and if we stop the 10% doesn't that hurt them even a little? And why are we getting any oil from them when we can be completely independent of Russia and OPEC?

But we must protect the environment above all else so no oil production here and Hunters deals and The Big Guys cut matters most.

It’s Only %10 - It’s Only a

I am super sick of the psaki talking point that “there are 9,000 unused leases, why don’t you address that question to the oil companies,” she snipes. Those leases are unprofitable. But Jacqui lets psaki get away with that lie. Jacqui, do your bleeping homework!

Jen Psaki should be ashamed to show her face in public. But no one in this illegitimate regime has an ounce of shame for their lies, deceptions and crimes against the United States. Not only is Psaki a liar representing liars, she oozes condescension and snark to anyone who dares to ask a reasonable question.

Well Jacqui, it's called selling the communists the rope they will use to hang us. If you knew anything about communists, you would know that. Next question, and it better not be about what Hunter Biden's opinion is on the price of gasoline. He is focused on natural gas. Learn the difference.

Hunter Biden--the smartest person in the room--must be charging her too much
in consultation fees for any honest answer. Are the Russians wired directly into
Hunter's brain with that missing laptop?

Ukraine wants back the $10 million bribe they paid Joe and Hunter. Or maybe Barisma is brokering the millions of barrels of oil the US keeps on buying from Russia. Build Back Barisma!

The money we're supplying Russia only finances part of the war against The Ukraine...So we're only responsible for 5% or so of the DEATHS and DESTRUCTION. PEEsaki isn't the stupidest person in the Admin but she's gotta be in the Top Ten!

A rough calculation 530,000 bbls/day with oil at $90 (pre war) = $1,431,000,000/month. Fox reporter is right.

A reporter could tell this idiot Psaki that her pants were on fire and she would respond “…there is no evidence of that and there is ample evidence that these pants are fireproof, so this is just a conspiracy from Fox News…”.
Worst and most obnoxious person ever to hold this position,

Democrats think it's OK to rob a retail store as long as they take only a small amount, so I can see why this makes sense to Psaki.

And Joe was only getting 10% of the deals Hunter made while tagging along with Dad when he was VP flying around to different countries.

Two points. First, since Biden could not force the green new deal down our throats, this is the next best thing for him snd the squad. They want oil and gas to be out of reach for all but the very rich and us peasants to suffer. Second. Russia and Chicoms have a ton of incriminating info on Hunter and the whole Biden crime family. He can't buck them or he is exposed. The man should be in a prison not the White House.

Her answer: "Only a little." 10% comes to $70 Million dollars a day. The question is, what percentage of Putin's war are we directly financing, not what percentage of our oil are we buying from him.

Save the earth investing in green energy while Vlad the Impaler Putin causes another nuclear disaster into the atmosphere in western Europe by a nuclear melt down. Who is going to enjoy a green saved earth after Putin gets through with it? FJB

This is Jobama’s press secretary, “ ‘I’ve not made any announcement about any decision on that front,’” Psaki said.
Well, President Psaki, we all wait with baited breath for your announcement on America’s energy policy regarding the importation of Russian oil over domestic production that helps Americans.
Do we really need any more information about the fact that Jobama is NOT IN CHARGE? When will the charade end? Will the Pubies that take the House and Senate have the stones to save us from the evil that underlies every level of government?
I predict no, no they won’t.

Jen, Jen, Jen .... just because the bottle said: "Really Redhead" doesn't mean we all fall for it. Just one more of your blatant lies.
Paying Russia a nickel is too much to subsidize their genocide.
We average 650,000 barrels of petroleum per day from Russia. At current prices of $110 a barrel (40 gallons) for crude, that's about $71,500,000 per DAY!
Assuming old Putey-poot gets a 50% profit that means we average Americans are now financing cold blood murder to the tune of $35 million every day --- almost $1.5 million dollars an hour.
Only 10%? Ok ... cut all ties to Russian oil and re-open ANWAR and we'll call it even.

We had our OWN oil under President Trump. Besides, a press secretary is only as smart as the one to whom she is secretary. Why else would one work for a stooge or a manikin?
