Some say the war in Ukraine and economic ripples that continue from the coronavirus pandemic are contributed to the high price.

High gas prices are a global problem. This issue would be here if Trump, Biden, or anyone else would be in office. Is Biden doing great? Hell no. But his policies have no bearing of gad prices in Canada, Australia, or anywhere else. It still sucks either way

Honestly every advanced economy in the world currently is facing increased prices and inflation and I generally lean toward this being a global issue. Do I think the government could do better though? Absolutely but this is a situation that I do not think the blame can fall singularly on.

Justin just because I think differently than you does not mean I have no common sense the same way I could argue you don't have any for always blaming a singular person for your life's woes. Adults are able disagree on things. Going straight to calling someone dumb or senseless is childish

Zaos I still disagree with the pipeline due to its construction time, type of oil, and that it was more for export than import. On the cancelation though I concede the point cause I just saw the headline myself.

Biden just ended gas and oil leases inside of the USA Today....

Zaos Gonzolez

It’s singularly Bidens fault. Closing the pipeline caused speculators to purchase oil at a rate that outpaced demand. Now there is a supply issue. FJB and his family.

Biden cancelled the pipelines his first day. FJB and his whole family.

Ah yes Justin a singular pipeline while beneficial is going to make oil companies stop spending their money. Its not like they are already posting record breaking profits. Will closing it have influence yes but they are not going to stop everything they are doing.

Justin you seem to be skipping over A. the oil was mainly for export, B. the pipeline again at best wouldn't be done until sometime next year leaving prices now unchanged, and C. that the oil sands oil is more difficult to create into gas so it would mostly go to other sectors.

The pipeline itself would have had little to no impact on the price of gas due to not only the type of oil being pumped but also due to the fact that the oil was mostly slated for export and not domestic use. The pipeline would not even have been completed until at least next year at the best rate.

Biden closing the pipeline caused speculators to purchase oil, depletion the supply while there was high demand. This is 100% Joe bidens fault. Singularly. FJB and his family.

This was created with Bidenomics and many other bad policies. Our current administration reminds me of The Scream by Edvard Munch.

Lefties can whine all they want. But all problems belong to the Dumbocrats.

Of course I am an American. I will always support my country.

Gerald Ashford

This operation is no different than any operation conducted by any president dating back to the Truman administration

VoxLesPaul

Watch the video of rejoicing Venezualans, and the wisdom of this decision is self evident. We saw the same thing when Saddam Hussein was deposed.

Fred

And how did that turn out?

Zaos Gonzolez

All commies deserve the same.

Eric Smith

Absolutely! It's wonderful finally having a president who is trying to do every single thing he promised the American people in the campaign.

Max

Maduro's drug trade, is an "Act of War" against the US. The military strikes and arrest of Maduro, are Self-Defense. There will be more, and more American lives will be saved.

If you elect a criminal who thumbs his nose at our laws, you can expect him to ignore international law as well. I can't believe in this country elected him the first time. Doing it a second time shows you how ignorant people are in our country. It's embarrassing.

Max

Trump was, and continues to be the best thing that ever happened to our nation. Three more years, hooray.

Peggy Carney

It's a act of war, Trump just wants the oil there. He is the criminal.

Max

Biden put a 25 million dollar bounty on Maduro.

Max

Maduro's drug trade is an "Act of War." You have that part correct.

Fred

Remember when we were told we would be welcomed as liberators in Iraq ... This is criminal. DON'T FORGET ABOUT EPSTEIN!!!

Fat Guy Outdoors

Was you in Iraq Fred? I was. Do you know the reaction of the people in Iraq or are you getting this from the news?

Max

Why are all of the Epstein files full of democrats? And, no pictures of Trump?
