Biden refuses to allow US to drill but bans Russian oil

"Where am I?"

PINO Joe Biden announced on Tuesday that the US will ban the importing of Russian oil and natural gas and claims to be "targeting the main artery of Russia's economy."

“Russian oil will no longer be accepted at U.S. ports,” the alleged president mumbled. “We will not be part of subsidizing Putin’s war,” he yelled angrily.

Biden said his alleged decision comes after consulting with European allies, although he said some are not able to join the U.S. in banning Russian oil. However, the EU does plan to reduce Russian imports of energy by over 65%, even though it gets 40% of it from Russia. England plans to phase out all Russian oil imports by the end of 2022 and possibly the end of Ukraine, as the war escalates.

Biden is cutting energy imports from Russia mostly because of the intense pressure he is getting from Americans. 

Russia is the world's third-largest oil producer and second-largest natural gas producer followed by Eric Swalwell (D-CA).

Biden levied sanctions against the evil country of Russia before they invaded Ukraine, but they had less effect than a child peeing in the ocean and a change in its temperature. His addled brain struggled to come up with a better way to hurt Putin.

On Monday, he mumbled with the leaders of Britain, France and Germany by video, and the three leaders and Biden “affirmed their determination to continue raising the costs on Russia for its unprovoked and unjustified invasion of Ukraine,” according to a White House propaganda statement.

Since becoming our PINO, so-called President Biden did all he could to end the United States' energy independence by interfering with oil production at home. Instead, since last fall, the U.S. imported approximately 700,000 barrels of dirty oil per day from Russia, helping them now fund their barbaric war against Ukraine. While our Russian oil amounts to about 10% of our total oil imports, Europe imports 4.5 million barrels per day, or about a third of its oil imports.

Due to his inability to ever accept responsibility for his history of failure and the ongoing increase in gas prices, Biden blamed the Russian-Ukraine war for the rising prices. “Putin’s war is already hurting Americans at the pump,” the house plant mush-mouthed.

On Monday, the average price for a gallon of gasoline hit an all-time high of $4.104, beating out the 2008 high of $4.103. Not a big difference but this isn't over by a long shot.

Meanwhile, Joe Biden is still our alleged president and Vice President Kamala Hahaharris is still waiting.

Quinnipiac poll shows who would stay and fight if US was invaded and who would run

Elizabeth Warren calls them "fire sticks"

A Quinnipiac University national poll of U.S. adults conducted from March 4 to March 6, asked subjects if faced with a situation in which the country was invaded by an enemy, whether they would stay and fight [using their Second Amendment rights to own a gun for one such purpose] or to flee. The results were predictable.

Fully 68% Republicans said they would stay and fight, while a mere 40% of Democrats would do the same. Regarding independents, 57% said they would stay and fight.

In regard to whether those who would not fight, only 25% Republicans say they would leave the U.S. and 36% of independents would also flee the country. However, 52% of Democrats said they would leave the U.S. possibly because they aren't very fond of the U.S. in the first place. 

The overall number of people in the poll saying they would fight totaled 55% while 38% they would leave the country.

Another area covered in the poll was about Russian oil. A large majority (71%) said they would back. ban on Russian oil even if it would raise gas prices significantly.

Over half (60%) in the poll believe that Russian President Vladimir Putin is mentally unbalanced, while only 21% thought that the Russian figure is mentally stable.

Electric vehicles: "soon you'll see it our way--you'll have no choice"

Transportation Secretary in absentia mostly Pete "What, Me Worry" Buttigieg said Monday that electric vehicles will bring "cost savings" [after you pay for the vehicle and wait twenty-seven years to break even]. 

Okay, I made the last part up, but EVs are expensive and need coal to create the electricity to charge them. 

Buttigieg forgot to detail how these former bumper cars would be affordable in the future and who in the Democratic Party stands to gain from the conversion from gas driven cars, because someone is making a bundle on this idea if it ever happens anytime soon.

Buttigieg ended his paternity leave and left his husband and their child recently to hit the ruddy road and push for these vehicles while a war rages on between Russia and Ukraine and we still buy oil from the former so they can kill the latter and take their land all the while pretending to support Ukraine.

The left is dead set against drilling for the oil below our sands. Their excuse is the environment, but since there's one planet producing the oil, it makes no difference where the oil is drilled for, but that isn't the point of the left. The point is they are better than you because you don't care where all the flowers have gone. You don't care that a snotty mentally ill teenager from Sweden told us not to drill. "How dare you?"

The gay Trans Sec'y appeared with Federal Transit Administrator Nuria Fernandez and Vice President Kamala Hahaharris, who had recently informed President Biden that Russia is a country and it's near another country called Ukraine. . . and there's a war between these countries and it's bad.

Buttigieg announced that the Biden administration plans to fork over more than $2,000,000,000 in COVID relief money to transit agencies in 18 states that have no idea how to manage their funding and he thinks giving them more money will teach them how.

Another $1,500,000,000 will be made available to Biden's infrastructure law for transit energies to buy buses with lower to no emissions made in the U.S. by U.S. workers and perhaps a bunch of illegal aliens.

Buttigieg claims electric buses will create better, high-paying jobs with taxpayer money and somehow lower highway congestion, possibly due to the loss of over 8 million jobs with a return of only 6.5 million. Some of that money is, according to anonymous sources, rumored to be slated for Hunter Biden's Rainy Day Medication Fund. This has also been confirmed by two other sources who needed to remain anonymous due to the sensitive nature of the claim.

"Clean transportation can bring significant cost savings for the American people as well," Buttigieg said.

This is our Second in Command "pumping" electricity into an EV
We are led by idiots

Other anonymous sources say that this administration is choking off the public from fossil fuels by allowing prices to soar under Biden's watch. At least he can pretend it's due to Russia and Ukraine, but gas prices have been steadily climbing ever since the ficus took office.

And Buttigieg as Transportation Secretary is actually quite funny: the guy was mayor of an average size town, South Bend, Indiana, and he couldn't even fix the potholes there or the transportation problems there.

Buttigieg added that $5 billion have been invested into building a nationwide electric vehicle charging network "so that people from rural, to suburban, to urban communities, can all benefit, from the gas savings of driving an (electric vehicle)." But with the average cost of an electric vehicle being $56,437, and the economy seeing prices soaring higher than Hunter Biden at a Motel 8 Ball, most people cannot afford to drive one.

That being said, soon we will have no choice if the Left gets their way.

FL police chief fired for racist behavior

Larry Scirotto: a gay mixed race racist

Fort Lauderdale -- Florida police chief Larry Scirotto has been fired after an investigation found that he is a racist when deciding promotion practices. He once remarked "that wall is too white" when referring to photos of the department's command staff.

Scirotto, 48, a self-loathing mixed-race gay man, took over the Fort Lauderdale PD last year in August. According to press releases on Thursday, he was fired by the city after several discrimination complaints alleged that he made hiring and promotion decisions like alleged President Joe Biden makes nomination decisions: with an illegal race-based approach. The only difference is, Scirotto isn't the President of the United States, and Joe Biden holds that title.

Scirotto is a former assistant chief in Pittsburgh. He became the first openly gay chief hired in Fort Lauderdale last year.

The bias complaints against him concluded in a 12-page investigation that he created a "divisive atmosphere" in the department and mentioned the statement [above] about "that wall is too white," and "I'm gonna change that," according to CNN. Brian Stelter, who says he is not gay, did not contribute to this report.

The investigation also found that Scirotto had asked, "which one is blacker?" when considering a promotion, but Scirotto, now the former police chief, denies he said. Perhaps he actually asked, "which one is cuter?"

Scirotto is quoted in the report of saying that he intended to "consider diversity at every opportunity," rather than qualifications, which that implies, but at least this a-hole is woke.

“Overall, there is a very divisive atmosphere within the department based on the perception the chief is intentionally using race, gender and sexual orientation as attributes necessary for promotions,” the report reads. “While the goal to diversify is an important and laudable goal it must be accomplished in a legally permissible manner.”

Police work, like Supreme Court Justices, are not Affirmative Action decisions, although you would never know that under the Biden administration.

Scirotto defended his racial/gender/sexual proclivities decisions in the media, but having said what he reportedly said prior to his selections, he would not have needed to justify himself in the first place with statements like he gave in an interview with Fox affiliate 7News:

“Those minority groups are now being treated as if they were less than deserving, and that’s not the case, and it never was."

“The promotions that I made are of the minority candidates, were because they were exceptional candidates, and they excelled in every level of the organization,” he reportedly added. “They deserved to be promoted, and by the way, they happened to be minority. It wasn’t because they were minority.”

Sounds a lot like Joe Biden telling the American public "I'm gonna nominated a Black woman to the Supreme Court."

Had Biden and Scirotto just hired the best person for the job, nobody would have called it racist or sexist. But they're obviously "opposite of intelligent" to have made that decision, as Trump might have said.

What happens if Ukraine's Pres. Zelenskyy is killed?

What if Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is murdered by a Putin puke? It turns out that Ukrainian leaders, like our so-called leaders, have "continuity of government" should this happen. 

Secretary of State Antony "No h" Blinken told reporters that Ukraine officials have a plan ready in case Zelenskyy is killed, and Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is doing his level best to see this happen.

"The Ukrainians have plans in place that I'm not going to talk about or get into any details on to make sure that there is what we would call 'continuity of government' one way or another. And let me leave it at that," Blinken teasingly told CBS' "Face the Nation" Sunday.

"The leadership that President Zelensky has shown, the entire government has shown, is remarkable. They’ve been the embodiment of these incredibly brave Ukrainian people," the distinctly below average Secretary of State said.

The Ukrainian constitution states that the chair of parliament succeeds the president if he cannot perform his duties. Unlike the United States, a dead president can not remain in power and must be replaced forthwith by a living person. Currently, Ruslan Stefanchuk serves as chairman of the parliament, known as Rada. 

Blinken’s remarks come after a report surfaced that U.S. officials and allied nations have been discussing the line of presidential succession in case Zelenskyy is killed or captured.

U.S. officials have reportedly urged Ukrainians to have their officials "give 'em a low silhouette against the moon," and if they want to be a duck, they better not be a sitting duck, they should keep moving."

Zelenskyy, whose balls are big enough to be seen on radar, needs to be very careful and clandestine as he has dispelled rumors of leaving but remains in Kyiv.  According to reports, he has already avoided three assassination attempts and hopefully will avoid a fourth and so on.

Due to the Russian violence in Kyiv, US officials and their allies would like Ukrainian officials get out of Kyiv and establish a base of operations away from the dangers being there imposes. A presidential retreat in the Carpathian Mountains has been discussed as an option, but Ukrainian officials haven't revealed the security and safety measures it contains.

Meanwhile, professional racist Nikole Hannah-Jones is claiming the only reason we care about this war is because it's white-on-white, while the White House works feverishly to come up with a narrative as to how it's all Donald Trump's fault.

Russian oil and gas emit 30% more methane than American producers including Eric Swalwell

Our alleged President Biden refuses to use domestic oil and gas production while there is a global energy crisis, but he's super peachy about importing Russian crude as the Left pretends to be concerned about green energy and the environment.

White House Press Secretary and paid liar Jen Psaki went over the same old talking points that the solution to our decade-high power prices is to put more money into "clean energy" at the same time the Biden administration refuses to sanction Russian dirty energy producers and help fund their military efforts to overthrow the government of Ukraine and replace him with a Russian puppet. This may be due to the Left's love of puppets, like the old one they put in the White House.

Whoever is the real person in charge of the Biden wet sock puppet has no regard for the Russian warcrime engine and religiously believes green energy is the only choice for America and then the world.

“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,” Psaki pontificated. Is she intentionally blinding us to the implications of our reliance on Russia and their dirty fuel? Is she and the administration okay with Russia being our energy source and thus having control over that, just like we have been dependent upon China for our medications source?

Both avenues are stupid and potentially suicidal. 

And looking at the decision to leave us dependent on Russian oil is by no means "green." According to the International Energy Agency’s global methane tracker, Russia was the world’s leading producer of methane emissions last year with its oil and gas operations producing 30 percent more per unit of production than the United States.

Iranian producers emitted 85 percent more methane per unit of production when compared to U.S. operators.

Such differences are likely higher given the fact that Iran is deceptive regarding their data.

We can continue along this pathway to our own extinction or vote these jokers out of office in November.

Harvey Weinstein in big trouble in prison: "It will not happen again, I swear!"

Disgraced star schtupper and former movie mogul Harvey Weinstein got caught with contraband in his prison cell which he had carefully hidden from the "screws." This time his problems didn't emerge from "Serge," the name he gives his penis, but from Milk Duds. 

Yes those round, tasty chocolate treats with caramel inside that we all know and love from the days we went to the movies and saw "Pillow Talk" and wished we could schtup Doris Day because she was so innocent (but now realize why Rock Hudson didn't exactly do any schtupping), were the contraband that could have landed Weinstein in jail, except he was already there.

Weinstein in now profusely apologizing in the hope he won't end up in the hole for a week, sharing the enclosed space with the rats and roaches of the prison where he languishes [a word I rarely use] while his colleagues in the yard yammer for his release from the devil's armpit.

Weinstein was extradited to California for trial where he faced 11 charges of rape and sexual assault. He is currently enjoying his time at the Correctional Treatment Center, which is the medical unit within the Twin Towers jail in beautiful downtown LA, the home to the homeless. The movie maven was previously convicted on a boatload of similar counts in New York, where he was sentenced to a mere 23 years in the stoney lonesome. He is appealing that case.

Now he is awaiting trial and is allowed to meet with his lawyers fact to face. But soon after a recent meeting that a search of his cell was performed and the dreaded round, chewy chocolate treats were found. Variety reported this incident on Thursday:

“This was an innocent misunderstanding,” Weinstein said. “It will not happen again. I have been a model inmate, following the rules and regulations and I am sincerely sorry.” https://t.co/goTNNWl6zg

Variety reported on the incident on Thursday:

Harvey Weinstein was caught with contraband Milk Duds in November, prompting a reprimand from L.A. County jail guards, according to records viewed by Variety.

The Milk Duds were found during a search on Nov. 10, after Weinstein had a face-to-face meeting with Shawn Burkley, one of his attorneys. The Milk Duds were confiscated, and the guards warned that they would have to search his attorneys’ legal binders and laptop bags on future visits.

Weinstein's attorneys argued that Milk Duds are hardly an item to be concerned with. "After all, it wasn't as if we brought him Bonomo's Turkish taffy, which after it's smacked and cracked can be used as a cutting instrument if he doesn't eat it first."

Weinstein try to convince the screws that he brought the Milk Duds with him when he was extradited from New York in July, but they weren't buying his taradiddle. Jail officials said he was searched when he arrived at the L.A. County jail's medical facility and jack squat was found, so they concluded the Milk Duds were passed to him during the attorney's visit.

“This was an innocent misunderstanding. It will not happen again. I have been a model inmate, following the rules and regulations and I am sincerely sorry.” Weinstein said.

“We have been informed about this and are very sorry it happened,” lead Weinstein attorneys Mark Werksman and Alan Jackson added. “It had not happened before, and never happened since. Harvey has been a model inmate and intends to continue as such.”

What next? A hacksaw in a loaf of bread? A heater?

Ukrainian President tells US Congress who he thinks is responsible for Russian invasion

That look you get when something unexpected happens in your pants

According to sources in the Senate, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy does not think former President Donald Trump is responsible for Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Unlike Nancy "Hands of Fury" Pelosi, Adam Schiff, Chuck "Nostrils" Schumer, Alexandria Obviously Commie, and the rest of the Democratic Party, he actually blames the person who has been the alleged US president for over a year now--Joseph Robinette Biden. [H/T The Daily Wire]

Zelenskyy blamed Biden because he refused to enact sanctions against Russia BEFORE they launched their invasion of Ukraine, rather than waiting for the invasion to begin. Why, it's almost as if the Democrats wanted Putin to invade, especially those Dems who secretly wear their "Che" tee shirts to bed.

Reuters Reuters reported several days prior to Russia's invasion neighboring Ukraine that Biden was "refusing to unleash sanctions on Russia" until the invasion, in spite of Zelenskyy and many other officials saying that sanctions imposed beforehand had a chance of stopping the invasion from taking place.

Why, it's almost as if the Democrats wanted Putin to invade.

“You tell me 100% that there will be war in a few days’ time. What are you waiting for?” Zelensky prior to the invasion. “We will not need your sanctions after there is a bombardment, or after our state is shot at, or if we have no more borders, we do not have an economy, or parts of our state is occupied.”

Biden's response was . . . not to respond. 

Instead, he went to Delaware to relax, eat some ice cream, and wander around aimlessly.

Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) spoke to The Daily Wire regarding Biden's refusal to be proactive with the sanctions. “The sanctions that they want to put on [Russia] are nothing, it’s kind of like a slap on the wrist,” he said, just days before Russia invaded. “We’ve come up with sanctions on the Republican side that are real strong, pre and post, if they come in. So, I think it’s a huge mistake that we haven’t put some sanctions on at the beginning. ..."

But some on the left want to blame Trump for the invasion even though Putin didn't try invading any country during the four years of Trump's presidency. Some, like Nikole Hannah-Jones, want to tie Putin's invasion to racism, because that's all race-baiters "got."

The truth is, when people like Putin smell weakness, it's like blood in the water for a shark. But perhaps it isn't weakness that helped launched the invasion--it's almost as if the Democrats wanted Putin to invade.
