US democrats again vote against American oil production

Why would democrats vote against American oil independence? Because they stupidly think gasoline and diesel are bad and should be eliminated, regardless of the cost to poor people and the economy.

Legislation promoting U.S. energy independence from Russia has been blocked by House Democrats.
This is a good analysis of how we've ended up where we are

The left in general wants to transition to a full electric economy, completely eliminating fossil fuels. The reasons behind this are largely emotional and wholly retarded.
Don't forget financial. Politicians always find a way to get their cut.
They demonstrate a complete lack of understanding of physics or engineering or supply chain or mining or refining or manufacturing or entropy or just about anything related to STEM.
That's for sure!
The extreme left wants to destroy America - her economy, her culture, her peoples. They believe that this is the way to transition from capitalism to socialism.
Sadly so.

So Joe the Rapist shambled to the lectern, had to get redirected by his aides several times, stopped to poop his pants, and gave an address telling the nation that we were going to stop imports of Russian oil, and that it was time for pudding and Matlock, and shambled off the stage without taking any questions.

Here's an analysis of his disgraceful behavior

There was no Keystone Pipeline before the pandemic when domestic production was significantly higher than it is now. There is nothing stopping oil companies from ramping production back up to pre-pandemic levels. They just simply haven't chosen to do it yet.
Claiming Biden has done nothing to hinder American oil production and distribution is dishonest stupidity.

Pandemic recovery. Demand went back up, but production didn't because oil companies preferred to take profits rather than spend money investing in new drilling. That's why domestic production hasn't gone back up to pre-pandemic levels yet.
Democrats blame oil companies for production slowdowns caused by democrat policies designed to shut down fossil fuel production altogether. Democrat global warming cultist, thy name is stupid.

According to a new Quinnipiac University national poll:

Overall, 71% of Americans supported a ban on Russian oil even if it resulted in higher gas prices, according to the survey, which was conducted from March 4 to 6. Oil was trading around $130 a barrel on Tuesday, while a regular gallon of gasoline was an average $4.17 at the pump.

Democrats were the most likely to back the ban, but the support rates were also high for independents and Republicans.

And:

In a poll conducted last week by Reuters, 80% of respondents — including solid majorities of Republicans and Democrats — said they support the idea of not importing any oil from Russia, even if that leads to higher gas prices at the pump.

You can't go full electric without nuclear.

It's another reason for one world government.

President Biden:

"It's simply not true that my administration or policies are holding back domestic energy production. That’s simply not true. Even amid the pandemic, companies in the United States pumped more oil during my first year in office than they did during my predecessor’s first year. We’re approaching record levels of oil and gas production in the United States, and we’re on track to set a record of oil production next year.

In the United States, 90 percent of onshore oil production takes place on land that isn’t owned by the federal government. And of the remaining 10 percent that occurs on federal land, the oil and gas industry has millions of acres leased. They have 9,000 permits to drill now. They could be drilling right now, yesterday, last week, last year. They have 9,000 to drill onshore that are already approved. Let me be clear. They are not using them for production now. That's their decision, These are the facts."

Only those who do not understand the issue can believe Biden's global warming anti-fossil fuel policies and regulations are not driving up gas prices at the pump.

As expected Biden is lying. Same as he lies about the southern border, same as he lies about inflation, same as he lies about supporting the police, same as he lies about raping Tara Reade. He's had more than 50 years practice lying (remember he was subject to expulsion from SU for plagiarism), I don't believe he's able to tell the truth.

Only those who do not understand the issue continue to blame President Biden for geopolitical events and obscene oil company profits.

There does not seem to be a democrat alive who can produce evidence that oil companies are evil for making profits that the leftist critics have been brainwashed to think are not reasonable.

You don't understand what government welfare is all about. Oil companies do not get corporate welfare. Planned Parenthood, on the other hand, gets corporate welfare and government funding.
