Soaring Gas Prices To Remain For ‘As Long As It Takes’

Make no mistake about it, Joe Biden is doing everything he can to ensure Ukraine comes out victorious in this war against Russia. He’s even sacrificing the American people to do so.

It’s a case of botched priorities. Biden – along with every other Democrat – is repeating the age-old “Russia, Russia, Russia” trope to justify their energy policies that severely restrict oil supply, thus driving up prices for American consumers.

Biden has prioritized the appeasement of climate change radicals (his voter base) over working-class Americans, many of whom are really struggling to get by. Combine that with Biden’s globalist intentions, bake at 350, and out pops a catastrophic economic disaster.

President Joe Biden said Thursday that U.S. drivers will continue to pay record-high gas prices for “as long as it takes” to stop Russia’s war in Ukraine, acknowledging that consumers are unlikely to see relief at the pump anytime soon.

During a press conference Thursday following the NATO summit in Spain, Biden was asked how long people should expect to pay gas premiums because of Vladimir Putin’s war.

“This is a critical, critical position for the world,” he added.

Gas prices have hit record highs in recent months, part of soaring inflation that has badly hurt Biden’s approval ratings and sapped support for his spending programs. The national average for a gallon of regular gas is $4.86, according to AAA, up from $3.12 a year ago. Republicans have blamed the high prices on Biden’s green agenda and efforts to limit drilling for oil and gas.

Biden also expressed optimism about the Russian oil price cap plan proposed by G-7 nations earlier this week.

The price cap scheme would seek to minimize Russia’s oil export revenue through restrictions on the insurance and shipping of its seaborne crude.

“We’ve delegated a commission, a group of our national security people, to sit down and work out that mechanism,” Biden said of the plan.

“We think it can be done,” he added. “We think it can be done to drive down the price of oil and would drive down the price of gasoline as well.”

Globalist liberals seem to always find an excuse to expand the bureaucracy.

Are gas prices at a record high? Create a commission! It’s truly Soviet in nature and a real blight on the American way of life.
