Biden Lies About Domestic Energy Production

And yes, I know, that headline is four words too long

Joe Biden is a liar. He lies every day, and until he got elected president, it worked out very well for him. Here’s one of his more recent lies.

BIDEN: "It's simply not true that my administration or policies are holding back domestic energy production"

This is the biggest lie I’ve ever heard an American president tell, and I lived through “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.” Biden has been holding back domestic energy production since the minute he had the power to do so. He even ran on it:

And he started doing it in his first week in office.

The White House @WhiteHouse

We’re in the midst of a climate emergency, and President Biden knows we have no time to lose. Today, he’s taking action to address the climate crisis, create good-paying union jobs, and build an equitable clean energy future.

Within hours of his inauguration, he’d already done this:

As part of his climate plan, President Biden is revoking a key presidential permit needed to finish the controversial Keystone XL pipeline. That likely means the end of the years-long project.

Since then, gas prices have only gone up. Now he’s just flat-out lying about the reasons for it. He did this. He’s still doing this:

apnews.comBiden halts oil, gas leases amid legal fight on climate costWASHINGTON (AP) — The Biden administration is delaying decisions on new oil and gas drilling on federal land and other energy-related actions after a federal court blocked the way officials were calculating the real-world costs of climate change.

His fellow Democrats want to keep doing this, but now they’re afraid of the headlines:

New: Democrats pressured oil companies to slow down production in October. The follow up hearing scheduled for today was abruptly canceled

freebeacon.comHow Dems Helped Spike Gas Prices - Washington Free BeaconDespite reassurances from the White House that it is doing nothing to discourage oil companies from opening new drill sites, President Joe Biden’s allies in Congress just months ago pressured oil executives to decrease outputs because of climate change, raising questions about the Democratic Party’s…

Now Biden needs to decide which he fears more: some nebulous “climate crisis,” or the wrath of voters who need gasoline to do their jobs and live their lives. Brazenly lying is always Biden’s first instinct, but it’s not going to stop what’s happening.

Biden on gas prices: "It’s going to go up. Can’t do much right now. Russia is responsible."

Vladimir Putin didn’t do this to us. Joe Biden did this to us. Putin is just lending him a helping hand.
