While the average price for a gallon of gas varies from state to state - drivers in a certain Silicon Valley town are facing particularly extortionate rates that set them back almost $150 for a full tank.

Hawaii rates second, with an average price of $4.803, closely followed by Washington ($4.656), Nevada ($4.615) and Oregon ($4.428).

The only other states with averages above $4 are Alaska ($4.370) and Arizona ($4.112)

Mississippi has the lowest average price per gallon at $3.098 and its neighbors Alabama ($3.263), Louisiana ($3.166), Arkansas ($3.223) and Good 'ol Rockey top Tennessee ($3.272) are amongst some of the cheapest places to buy gas.

The Democrats will blame this on Climate Change and/or Trump.
Half the country will believe it.

News reports like this are a joke. They never tell the full story.

Gasoline prices have spiked almost every year around this time. There’s a simple reason for it: U.S. refineries typically experience a capacity crunch around April every year because this is the time of year when they transition from winter to summer fuel blends.

Not sure where they get the gas prices but we’re $2.99 to $3.39 and the same gas stations can change their prices a couple times a day which makes no sense.

I saw an interview where a guy with a mic was asking random people oh the street about the rising inflation and soaring mortgage rates and this psycho corpulent cat woman screamed that its was all TRUMP’S fault.

They actually believe that.

In her defense, it has to be Trump’s fault. It can’t possibly be the fault of a Democrat.

And to make it worse President Sniffer drained our Strategic Petroleum Reserves. And he’s giving our weapons away to Ukraine...

This is all part of Obama’s plan to squeeze America until the revolution breaks out. The revolution will usher in the beast of communism.

The advantage of having the corrupt/gullible press in your pocket is they'll push liberal lies no matter how stupid or unbelievable.

That said, I was amazed 'the press' didn't totally buy the BS about Biden's uncle being eaten by cannibals ... maybe there's hope.
