The gas prices are continuing to rise at an alarming rate and so is the frustration with the current administration.
Instead of the Biden team doing something to alleviate the skyrocketing prices they are gaslighting the American people.
Seriously, what else is new?

Overnight in my area, the gas prices jumped by .60 and we are now close to $4.00 a gallon in a rural area in South Carolina. In other areas such as California, the gas prices gave reached well over $5.00 and are getting closer to $6.00 a gallon if they are not already there.
So, in times of crisis what does this administration do?
Does the Biden team swing into action by opening our pipelines that were closed down last year?
Nope.
Instead, Biden ignores it and sends his press secretary out to Twitter to give all the reasons to NOT focus on boosting oil production in the United States.

“It’s a reminder that real energy security comes from reducing our dependence on fossil fuels,” Psaki wrote, noting that Russia’s continued invasion of Ukraine was causing a spike in oil prices.
1. Production is up, rising, and approaching records, yet Russia’s actions still leave our consumers vulnerable. It’s a reminder that real energy security comes from reducing our dependence on fossil fuels

Isn’t that sweet of her?
Psaki is pushing back against Republicans who are calling for more domestic oil production.
She argued that domestic oil production was up after the coronavirus pandemic but that the United States was still vulnerable to global oil markets.
“[D]omestic production has not insulated us from the price volatility of fossil fuels or the whims of those who control them, such as President Putin,” she said. “Americans know that.”

Psaki argued the only way to truly be free from high gas prices was to stop using oil.
“The only way to protect the US over the long term is to become energy independent,” she wrote, pointing to Biden’s efforts on subsidizing wind and solar energy.
8. The only way to protect US over the long term is to become energy independent. That is why the President is so focused on deploying clean energy technologies that don’t require fossil fuels bought and sold on the global market, which will always be vulnerable to bad actors.

Biden even acknowledged the fact that gas prices were rising in his State of the Union address. So what does Biden suggest?
To offer subsidies on electric cars as a solution.
He called for Congress to help him “lower the price of electric vehicles, saving you another $80 a month because you’ll never have to pay at the gas pump again.”
So, there we have it, folks.
Let’s not depend on our own oil reserves to provide for the nation, but let’s just focus on those electric cars that you can save $80.00 a month with!
This administration is absolutely useless and I am not sure we will even make it to 2024 at this rate.
