Inflation is worldwide.

The President does NOT control gas prices.
No, he does not control gas prices but, he can control permits for production and pipelines. If he does so in a way that restricts supply you end up with higher prices. That's the inflation link.

The part where Hunter Biden flies from California to Delaware (?) to drop off a computer to a semi-blind guy who just happens to be a friend of Rudy Giuliani and then forgets to go back and get it so the computer repairman copies the hard drive on a whim and gives it to Rudy...

And people believe this shit?

Q-cumbers...

Are we back to that Keystone pipeline nonsense?

As for production permits - he canceled a bunch of permits that were not being used.

Then, there's this -

Interior Department cancels offshore oil and gas leases in Alaska and the Gulf of Mexico​


The Biden administration announced Wednesday it would cancel three upcoming offshore oil and gas leases – two in the Gulf of Mexico and one in Alaska – over a lack of interest and delays.

The cancellation of the previously planned Cook Inlet sale in Alaska, as well as the lease sales in the Gulf, ensures that millions of acres of offshore waters will not be developed for oil and gas – a significant victory for climate advocates.

However, Biden officials have also emphasized the need for more domestic oil production to combat high gasoline prices, which have angered the public and inflamed inflation.

Got anything from a source not judged to be "borderline questionable for factual reporting based on several failed fact checks"?
I'm not interested in what someone "judged" the NYP to be, they have been right on this one. If the NYT and WP can get Pulitzers for their reporting on a hoax. The NYP should get one for their accurate reporting on a true story.

The story might be a bit more believable if a more trustworthy source was reporting it.

But, you stick with your sources.

By the time this story ends up being covered by reputable sources, it will no longer be sensational!

All the wild assumptions will be presented with caveats, coincidences put in context, and only reputable sources quoted … where is the fun in that?

You can’t expect @Dog 2.0 & his ilk to support legit journalism, that’s contrary to GOP doctrine of supporting alternative facts.

How about the part where he released oil from the strategic national reserve to lower prices at the refinery intake?

It sure made Republicans mad, was that because it drove up inflation, too?

The total of all the oil released from the SPR accounted for a few days worth of USA production.
Its purely a politcial gesture. It has minimal affect on gasoline prices. It goes to oil US companies who are exporting massive amounts of crude oil daily to countries like China and India as well as all over the world. So China and India really appreciate that. All of that SPR oil also has to be eventually replaced by law , and that will be expensive. If you research it a bit you will see that SPR releases mean almost nothing to world oil and gasoline prices. But they easily dupe people like you into thinking the opposite.

How long does it take after he issues a drilling permit for the gasoline to show up from the oil that is drilled?
Its a bit more complicated than that. For example there are production arbitrages involved and forward planning, capital allocation , etc. Most Dems think crude oil is drilled out from underneath their corner Chevron station.

...

This part is true.

And yes, it did have an affect of crude prices... broke the upward slope. But that's a math thing, how could you and your elk possibly understand.

.... It has minimal affect on gasoline prices. It goes to oil US companies who are exporting massive amounts of crude oil daily to countries like China and India...

This part, and everything that followed, is just a fucking lie. Total fiction, deliberately crafted to mislead and cause harm to USAnians (including Republicans).

Why do you hate America?
