Democrats used to whine about sending energy dollars to our enemies. Russia, Venezuela, even the Saudis on some level along with other Middle Eastern Emirates. But you can’t drill your way out, they said. We did. We fracked our way out and what do Democrat’s want? To ban Fracking.
We’ve dropped a post or two (possibly 100) on the topic. We’ve covered every angle. From a green angle: natural gas is a cleaner, low-emissions alternative that is great for backing up their crappy obsession with Wind and Solar. To, how it keeps energy prices stable (good for the economy) while keeping jobs and dollars here and out of the hands of regimes that do not have our best interests at heart.
They still want to ban it. Who does that help? The Wahhabists and the socialists. Oh, and Russia!
Former White House national security expert Fiona Hill testified Thursday that Russian president Vladimir Putin viewed American fracking as a “great threat to Russian interests”; top contenders for the Democratic presidential nomination, however, have called for an outright ban of the practice.
Ruh-Roh! Fiona Hill is one of them. A professional Swamp rat.
Under questioning from Rep. Mike Conaway (R., Tex.) at a hearing on the impeachment of President Donald Trump, Hill agreed that a ban on fracking would play into Putin’s hands.
“In November 2011, I actually sat next to Vladimir Putin in a conference in which he made precisely that point,” she said. “It was the first time that he had actually done so to a group of American journalists and experts who were brought to something called the Valdai Discussion Club. So he started in 2011 making it very clear that he saw American fracking as a great threat to Russian interests.”
There you have it. Democrat Anti-Frackers are Russian Colluders. As if we didn’t already know that.
