Biden’s domestic energy policies by executive order when he first took office have absolutely contributed to the steady increase in our fuel costs. But of course instead of taking accountability or considering easing up on the energy industry regulations, let’s just blame it all on Putin and make a half hearted attempt to get more oil from friendly nations like Venezuela, Iran, and Saudi Arabia. When they tell us to go eff ourselves, Biden can say he tried but this is all Putin’s fault…
it's a global increase in gas prices. Yes there are some things we can do. And we're doing them, but they don't happen overnight.

This is a really silly point to be making right now.
