This whole debacle was created to give the admin someone to blame everything on, and to conveniently drive up gas prices to force Americans off fossil fuels.

MS. HEINRICH: On gas, you just said that, you know, less supply raises prices, it’s not in our strategic interest to reduce the supply. We also know, you know, the president as recently as yesterday talked about increasing domestic manufacturing to bring down prices on inflated items like goods. So why not apply the same logic to energy and increase domestic production here?
MS. PSAKI: Well, there are 9000 approved oil leases that the oil companies are not tapping into currently. So I would ask them that question.
MS. HEINRICH: Is there nothing that the administration can do to get those providers back to pre-pandemic levels?
MS. PSAKI: Do you think the oil companies don’t have enough money to drill on the places that have been preapproved?
MS. HEINRICH: Just asking.
MS. PSAKI: I would, I would point that question to them and we can talk about it more tomorrow when you learn more.
MS. HEINRICH: Do you think that opening the Keystone pipeline and having more energy-friendly policies might do that?
MS. PSAKI: The Keystone Pipeline has never been operational. It would take years for that to have any impact. I know a number of members of Congress have suggested that, but that is a proposed solution that has no relationship or would have no impact on what the problem is. We hear all agree is an issue.
MS. HEINRICH: So during those years where it would take to bring down prices, as you’re saying, we should just continue to buy Russian oil?
MS. PSAKI: Well, again, Jacqui, I think you’re familiar with a number of steps. We’ve taken a historic release from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. (crosstalk) Well, let me finish what we can do over time and what this is all a reminder of in the president’s view. Is there a need to reduce our reliance on oil. The Europeans need to do that. We need to do that, if we do more to invest in clean energy, more to invest in other sources of energy. That’s exactly what we can do to prevent this from happening in the future. We welcome any Republicans from joining us in that effort. Go ahead.
MS. HEINRICH: As long as we’re buying Russian oil, though, aren’t we financing the war?
MS. PSAKI: Well, Jacqui, again, it’s only about 10 percent of what we’re importing. I’ve not made any announcement about any decision on that front. But our objective here and our focus is making sure that any step we take maximizes the impact on President Putin and minimizes it on the American people. And anyone who’s calling for an end to the carveout should be clear that that would raise prices.

This is all based on a complete delusion. Even twenty years ago, when it was widely believed the world’s population, and oil consumption, would continue to rise, the reality was that we had centuries left before running out. 500 to 1000 years. Now, with new fracking technology, plus technological progress in energy efficiency, PLUS the now known fact that we are actually facing a population implosion, the truth is we will likely never run out of oil. Humans will go extinct before it happens.
Yet the fake cult of we’re about to run out of fossil fuel persists, the climate change religious mandate of switching from oil fueled vehicles to coal powered vehicles, the delusion that windmills and solar panels are the answer, as if mining and manufacturing for “green” energy doesn’t itself require fossil fuels.
Humanity is dependent on fossil fuel and the only way to stop that is to return to the Stone Age. Become roaming bands of prehistoric tribes cannibalizing each other just like we did for a million years before agriculture.
Another insane leftist delusion: Go vegan to “save the planet.” No more cow farts. How the hell do you grow all the plants they want us to eat exclusively? Fossil fuels. We can’t feed the world pushing hand plows.

It would have if not for Russia invading Ukraine. Trump or DeSantis would have won in 2024 and we might have had a chance to get back to prosperity and a great America. Now it seems more likely we will end up tangling with Russia. Probably by proxy in Ukraine (if we aren’t already conducting covert CIA missions), possibly in Moldova, and maybe even in Finland. Possibly directly, which can have only two outcomes: either mutual nuclear destruction, or worldwide global dictatorship, whether with Putin at the head or the globalist elite (China, Democrats and fascist technocrats) at the head. Either way we the people are fucked. All because the Dems cheated a pathetic puppet into heading the U.S. giving Putin the chance to make his move.

Elon Musk says more fossil fuel production is needed now, even if it’s bad for his electric car company, Tesla Inc.
“Hate to say it, but we need to increase oil & gas output immediately,” the billionaire tweeted Saturday, as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine chokes off fuel supplies and drives up gas prices.
Musk signaled that the adoption of electric models and a wider shift to renewable energy couldn’t be accelerated fast enough to shield consumers from higher prices in the short-term.
“Obviously, this would negatively affect Tesla, but sustainable energy solutions simply cannot react instantaneously to make up for Russian oil & gas exports,” said Musk.

I would love to see an accurate assessment of the number of barrels and percentage of imports coming from Russia per day or month or whatever. I have seen everything from 800,000 barrels/day (from a conservative) to 10,000 barrels/day (from a leftist.)

I have yet to see ANY explanation for why we're buying oil from Russia.
Different kinds of crude oil, some easier to refine for certain purposes than others.
Also, it could be because a certain class of oil is fungible, buying it from producer A or B doesn't matter much so long as total cost is least. Russian oil is likely low enough in cost that even after transport costs it may be cheaper than oil produced closer.

It’s insane. I looked at the state of our finances yesterday. The amount we are spending on gas, food and car repair/maintenance is out of sight. And that’s just the essentials. We’ve saved well for retirement so we’ll be okay, absent a total collapse of the economy, but what about the millions of people living paycheck to paycheck, raising families, trying to save for retirement. Why am I concerned about them and the millionaire politicians aren’t. You can’t tell me Biden (‘s puppet masters) give a shit about them. They KNEW canceling keystone and banning drilling would raise oil prices. They KNOW their policies cause inflation, hurt the economy and therefore poor and working class the most. They fucking know this or they are so fucking stupid it’s a wonder they remember to breathe.
Desperation.
The lunatic leftist behind the puppet Biden are desperate to get their new green deal implemented, mainly because they feel if they do Americans will rally around them and keep them in power.
They live in a bubble of the internet and social media and believe their own bullshit. They have succesfully triggered a war in which they believed would increase Biden's dismal poll numbers, get the attention away from problems in the US, and the cherry on top it would drive energy prices through the roof.

I audit those carriers, you should see what’s happening to fuel surcharges. Paying for oil to haul oil. And corn, wheat, soybeans, rice, fertilizer, animal feed, all the stuff that goes into the food you buy on the grocery shelves.

To be fair we'd NEED to replace the Russian oil with something else, and the Democrats won't do it domestically so that means the Middle East, Mexico, Canada, Venezuela, etc. I think the Saudi's have refused to pump more as that would lower their price, so we are pretty muck stuck.

They want gasoline to be unaffordable for the masses. That way they can push travel limiting EVs and public transportation. All to curtail YOUR FREEDOM and make you more controllable and dependent.

Dementia Joe is going to announce a ban on Russian oil. Of course, he will not let our country produce more, so they will turn to the ME and Venezuela which will in turn raise their prices.

So according to my Texas oil field friend, it's all smoke and mirrors. They are ramping up production in Texas. But here's the rub. The oil fields they are drilling, owned by Venezuela and Russia. Already bought and paid for by us, and we will be buying more from them, and importing more from countries that don't like us. While no oil from Russia is going to be imported, we will just be pumping the oil from fields that they own in our country. I'll get more details tonight.
Why do I feel like this is a bunch of rich global elites playing a giant chess game where the pieces are young men being sent to die and common people all over the world trying to put food on the table? It's all fun and games to them. Even the threat of nuclear exchange; it's just trash talk. They're playing a giant virtual video game that doesn't affect them personally at all. None of this will hurt Putin's lifestyle, or Biden's or the corporate or celebrity multi-millionaires.

https://babylonbee.com/news/nation-wishes-we-had-our-own-oil-we-could-dig-up-with-big-machines-and-then-transport-around-with-some-kind-of-pipeline
U.S.—With oil imports from Russia banned and gas prices continuing to rise, many around the nation report really wishing we had our own oil we could dig up with big machines and then transport around with some sort of pipeline.
"If only we had oil, and knew how to get it," said one local mom as she shelled out $300 for gas to take her kids to soccer practice. "Then maybe we wouldn't have to buy it from evil regimes around the world and gas prices would be lower. I know that's ridiculous, but it sure would be nice if that were possible!"
Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg says he commiserates with people who are struggling right now. "I do have a solution though," he said. "If you all just plop down $90K on an electric car and another 3 million on building a windmill in your backyard, you won't have to deal with these gas costs. I am smart!"
The scientific community says they are hard at work on a solution to the oil shortage but haven't found any options so far. "If only there was oil, and some way to get it out of the ground and transport it!" said all the scientists, scratching their heads.
Other scientists say they may have discovered an almost unlimited form of energy that is clean and safe that uses some sort of atomic fuel but that technology may be years away.

Also, the oil from Russia and the Middle East is very heavy crude, meaning it's more difficult to refine and has more waste produced in the process, more expensive to produce, less environmentally friendly. The crude found in the U.S is a lighter crude. Easier to refine, less waste, less expensive to produce, more friendly to the environment.
Edit...you get more end product from refining lighter crude oil, too.

“The Environmental Protection Agency announced Monday stricter restrictions on emissions from trucks and buses.“
“ Seventy-two million people are estimated to live near truck freight routes in America, and they are more likely to be people of color and those with lower incomes. These overburdened communities are directly exposed to pollution that causes respiratory and cardiovascular problems, among other serious and costly health effects," EPA Administrator Michael Regan said in the announcement Monday. "These new standards will drastically cut dangerous pollution by harnessing recent advancements in vehicle technologies from across the trucking industry as it advances toward a zero-emissions transportation future."
I bet those people of color with lower incomes are more concerned about $7 a gallon gas and higher food prices than the theoretical risk of future disease. Does the EPA or Kamala Harris explain the connection between expensive new trucks and costs being passed on down to consumers?
Here’s an idea: Stop strangling the economy so low income people can be upwardly mobile. Low income itself is the biggest cause of bad health in disadvantaged groups for many reasons way beyond smoggy air.

The EPA needs to be reduced by 90% or eliminated altogether. There should never be regulations like this forced on the people with no say in it. The whole concept of regulatory agencies is flawed: The alphabet agencies are arguably the biggest waste of taxpayer dollars and biggest source of damaging economic policy in the country. Look at the destruction the CDC alone did the past two years.

Short answer, we don't. This should be a state problem and controlled at the state level, if the state sees it necessary.
FedGov is way too large and intrusive. Many of the agencies have been weaponized against the citizens. Too many mid level and SES level government employees making policies and regulations that are damaging but they go unchecked and aren't held accountable.
Our previous President implemented a rule for every new regulation introduced two had to be removed first. He also was working to reduce the size of the federal bureaucracy. Now we have the lunatic leftist behind Biden that are increasing regulations and increasing the size of government, as well as making it more intrusive.
I'm old enough to remember the liberals saying republicans were the party of big government, the republicans were war mongers and how the republicans wanted higher taxes. My my how times have changed.

Trump cutting regulations was one of the best things about him and largely fueled our economic boom, and the Biden administration doing the reverse on top of an already damaged economy due to covid lockdowns is absolutely destroying us, will likely lead to another Great Depression. That is, unless he gets us blown to oblivion by Russian nukes first.

Speaking of elections, Putin was supposed to step down in 2024, as he would have completed his second consecutive term, and in 2018 he announced that he would step down. But now he says he will run again in 2024, just like Biden (who he “admires”, LOL). How’s that? Because a change in the constitution in 2020 eliminated the two term limit. The amendment was proposed by Putin himself and voting on the constitutional amendment was conducted in person and online. Because covid. Online. Yeah. Like that had a chance of not being rigged.
So Putin is A. A liar, and B. A dictator. He used covid to consolidate power exactly like the Democrats in the U.S. did, by using covid to not require in person voting. The Democrat administration and Putin are like twin faces of evil. They’re going to end up facing off in WWW3 and get the rest of us killed.
