Biden looks to Venezuela for a bailout

American Thinker:

By Monica Showalter

Joe Biden is in a bind.

Like everything else, he’s blown it. Energy prices have gone through the roof, with gasoline prices at the pump pushing $6.00 a gallon in San Diego alone. They’re expected to get higher, and each tic upward takes Joe down another notch in the polls. Biden has throttled U.S. capacity to produce its own energy by ending domestic drilling leases on federal lands. He’s also scuppered the Keystone XL pipeline from Canada. In place of that domestic and Canadian energy, we now buy Russian oil, some 600,000 barrels a day — which just happens to finance Vladimir Putin’s war on Ukraine. The idea of putting sanctions on Putin, while keeping his oil money stream open, is like putting a bath plug on the bottom of a boat and ignoring the huge gash on the side.

“Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f*** things up,” as President Obama used to say.

What’s an incompetent president to do? Not reverse his bad decisions on domestic energy production, of course. Joe’s looking for a bailout — from Venezuela.

His latest scheme is to turn to Nicolas Maduro, the odious Marxist dictator who turned oil-rich Venezuela into a Cuba-style ruin to replace Russian oil. more

  1. Just saw this Twitter thread which pretty much nails it.

    I was talking to a friend this morning, basically every single move this administration has done seems intended to destroy America. Seriously. It’s just incredible to me that anyone would take the actions this administration has taken. And it isn’t just USA, it is the EU too and maybe others. Shutting down nuke plants for ‘green’ reasons??? And then making overtures to the worst countries in the world – China, Russia, Iran, Venezuela??? What the hell???

  2. Just a little over a year ago we were experiencing:
    $1.75 dollar gasoline!
    A booming economy!
    No inflation!
    Energy Independence!
    A robust Supply Chain that worked!
    All time low unemployment!
    Secure Borders!
    Peace in Europe and Ukraine!
    China in check!
    Law and order!
    A military that understood what bathroom to use!

    Now everything has turned to shit all thanks to Jackass Joe and his band of Leftist radicals doing everything in their power to destroy our nation. Maybe it’s time to party like it’s 1773!

  3. If this really IS America, Biden would be swinging from a rope in front of the WH by now, by his own hand in disgrace, along with many of his incompetent, ill-moral Administration bent on the destruction of this Country with the excuse of “Climate Change”, baby killing and gender transitioning.

  5. Things are working per plan: everyone is focusing on Biden as a complete fool. But Biden is just a figurehead, a demented tool who does what he is told by persons currently unknown. As demonstrated by the State of the Union address, Biden can’t read from a teleprompter very well and cannot go off script at all. His press conferences are carefully orchestrated, and the most “powerful man in the world” can’t even take questions from the press.

    It’s not worth wasting time on blaming Biden. Instead, people need to look for the unelected officials who are really pulling the strings.

    Biden is completely compromised. His puppeteers are at war with us.

    His puppeteers include the putrid republicans. Not a damn one has lifted a finger (except to Trump) to curtail a wit of this insanity. They’re all licking their chops awaiting their cut from the laundromat that is Ukraine. I hate them all.
