Democrats right now are smelling of desperateness and that smell will only get worse as we approach the midterms. One of the things they’re sweating the most is the energy crisis, a situation that went from bad to worse thanks to bad or worse decision-making on behalf of the Biden administration. Decisions he’s been making since day one.
Democrats do everything they can to make the crisis seem like it is anyone’s fault. Democrats are insistent that all blame for your woes should be placed on Russian President Vladimir Putin, beginning with Jen Psaki. Fox News reports that Washington Democrat Rep. Kim Schrier pointed at Putin in response to the current energy crisis.
“What do you believe?” Kruse asked the Democrat, after noting that political pundits across the country differed on who to blame for Americans having to pay $4, $5, or even $6 for a gallon of gas.
“I believe a couple of things,” answered Schrier. “Right now, in the last two weeks, this is Putin. You should be blaming Putin, if anyone for this.”
As any committed Democrat politician would do, Schrier inflicted a bit of guilt on anyone who disagrees with her.
“To not blame Putin, first of all, is denying reality, and second, frankly, I think is un-American,” said Schrier. “So this is Putin’s fault.”

Although it is true that the gas price started rising before Putin launched his war against Ukraine, Schrier was not deterred and found a reason to do so.
“People were already suffering at the gas pump before this,” Schrier said. “We saw an increase of over a dollar per gallon over the last year and a half or so. That can be blamed realistically on the pandemic.”
“When people were not going to work and driving was down, gas prices were down,” she added. “As demand increased and rigs had not yet been turned on, there was a supply-demand issue like with everything else in this country and that [the pandemic] was to blame.”
RedState reported earlier that this effort to rewrite history also included using TikTok influencers in order to trick people into believing the story. It’s apparently not going well.

It’s hard to convince Americans of a lie when they saw the truth right before their eyes. Biden, who declared war against domestic oil drilling prior to his election, signed an order stopping the construction of Keystone XL. As data shows, Biden’s actions caused gas prices to begin rising the moment he stepped into power. His entire idea was to bring in an age of green energy, an age we’re not situated for.
Biden, along with the Democrats think that if gas prices continue to rise too fast then all of us should abandon our gasoline-guzzling automobiles and opt for the more expensive electric cars.
“Let them drive Teslas.”
However, Biden does not believe in loosening environmental regulations.
Loosening environmental regulations won’t lower prices.
But, by converting our economy to be powered solely by electric vehicles and clean energy, we won’t have to worry too much about gasoline prices.
It will mean tyrants like Putin won’t be able to use fossil fuels as a weapon.

Bottom line: We’re currently living in the midst of a massive Democrat virtue signal about the environment, and it’s not only incredibly expensive for us citizens, but it’s also destabilizing global security. Domestic energy and national/international security go hand in hand, and the White House needs to be stripped of the ability to just swipe a pen and stop it all.
