Chevron Levels Biden With a Little Honesty, Biden Reveals How Petty He Is in Response – Opinion

Democrats have an opportunity to realize their radical goals because of the gas price rises that are destroying Americans. Joe Biden let that slip out when he was questioned by reporters on Monday — that this was an opportunity to “make a fundamental turn toward renewable energy, electric vehicles, and across the board.” This is insanity, when renewables can’t even begin to make up for the need right now. Meanwhile, he’s been doing all he can to attack the energy industry since he came in.

Since his election, Biden has been attacking the energy sector. Biden shut down federal drilling and stopped plans for Keystone Pipeline construction on his first day of office. He was even able to keep his cool despite the rising gas prices. stopping drilling and canceling leases.

But he still blames the oil firms, screaming at them and threating to act against them. It’s a sociopathic energy approach — attacking them, then demanding they produce more, while also saying they’re going to be phased out at the same time. How could a business operate within these unstable constraints? People who are willing to take on a risk in an already dangerous industry will be allowed. It’s also not the way our country operates — the government doesn’t dictate what to produce to private industry and punish them if they don’t. That’s what happens in Communist and fascist nations.

Chevron’s CEO wrote a remarkable letter to Biden.

Chevron’s 37,000 employees and their daily efforts to provide energy for the entire world and improve the lives of the billions who depend on it, are what Chevron does every day. Your Administration, despite these efforts, has often sought to critique and, at times, vilify our industry. These actions do not help us meet our challenges and they are not what we deserve as Americans.

While today’s geopolitical situation is contributing to this energy crisis, bringing prices down and increasing supply will require a change in approach. Our industry has been urged to boost energy production. We’re here to help. Let’s work together. Your Administration must support the U.S. Energy Sector and cooperate with it in order for us to move forward on a path to greater energy security and economic prosperity as well as environmental protection.

Clearness and consistency are essential in policy issues, including leases and permits on federal land, the ability to permit critical infrastructure and the role regulation plays that balances costs and benefits. Many of these elements are described in our industry’s recently released 10-point plan. Most importantly, we need an honest dialogue on how to best balance energy, economic, and environmental objectives – one that recognizes our industry is a vital sector of the U.S. economy and is essential to our national security.

Chevron’s letter recognizes the importance of the nation’s needs, our national security, and the American people.

Joe Biden’s response? But not much.

REPORTER: “The Chevron CEO […] said that your administration has largely criticized the oil & gas industry & […] would need to take a change in approach in order to make progress in reducing energy prices.”

BIDEN: “I didn’t know they’d get their feelings hurt that quickly.”

He wants them to increase their refining capacity — while he admits he’s trying to phase them out, and he’s lying about “9,000 fields.” Some leases/permits don’t necessarily have oil or the ability to drill on them because of restrictions, but the Biden team keeps throwing that number out there like it’s something. Are we supposed to believe that oil companies wouldn’t drill if they could? While he wants them to stop drilling for midterms, he also intends to make them save their bacon. It’s nuts. Americans are being hurt by his mad rush to enforce his radical environmental agenda. It just makes the situation more volatile.

But that’s Joe Biden — his goals and control are the priority, not America or the American people. He’s demonized an industry to do them in, and now he wants them to save him. Unfortunately for him and the American people, they can’t turn on a dime after all the harm he has caused. He is so selfish and destructive, this just goes to show how he really is.
