President Joe Biden and his administration said Americans should reduce their consumption of oil and gas in order to keep prices down and ultimately punish Russian President Vladimir Putin.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki reacted to calls for the United States to stop importing oil from Russia in order to further punish Putin for escalating his invasion of Ukraine.

President Joe Biden and his administration said Americans should reduce their consumption of oil and gas in order to keep prices down and ultimately punish Russian President Vladimir Putin.Translation: Punish ourselves.

[Jim Robinson]

Impeach the idiot. Then the next, and the next, etc.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Let's go Brandon!

[RKRider]

Good luck with that, Joe.

[Williams]

Climate change.

Biden wants higher oil prices and for it to go to Russia.

So we’ll buy EV’s or something.

The price of gas here in Southeast Missouri went up 20¢ on Tuesday and another 20¢ today. That’s over 12 1/2 % in just a couple of days. Let’s Go Brandon!!

I heard reports that Putin has beaten the Deep State to the punch, by stopping oil shipments to the US. Why would they wait for a sanction, when they can head it off at the pass.

[Cboldt]

We should all fast to punish Putin. And go cold. And stop working.

RBOB is $3.30/gal wholesale. Add applicable taxes, transport, and profit and there you go.

[unixfox]

Time to fuel AF1 again.

[cincinnati65]

C’mon. Do you really think for one moment we’re not a laughingstock for the world now?

[mware]

Yesterday a gallon of gas was 3.68 today saw one station with 3.79

[throwthebumsout]

They have been saying this for days now. I’m still waiting on this administration to explain how we are going to reduce our dependence on foreign oil without increasing domestic oil production.

Green, renewable energy is NOT going to fill the gap. And, of course, the MSM gives them a pass on this ludicrous statement every time.

[EvilCapitalist]

Driving home from work today, I saw $4.19 9/10 for gas at a station about 10 or so miles from my home, in my small corner of Pennsylvania.

“So we’ll buy EV’s or something”

Not or something...it’s designed punish gas users and make it painful as possible to buy it.

It’s no accident brandon shut down the XL pipeline on day 1.

[EvilCapitalist]

That would be cheap near me. I managed to pay $3.72 9/10 a gallon, but saw several stations on my way home at over $4 a gallon. Most expensive I saw was $4.19 a gallon.
