Joe’s war on fossil fuels continues. The Department of the Interior and an activist judge are working on a scheme that could invalidate up to two thousand domestic oil and gas leases.
This is perhaps the most egregious case of “sue and settle” in the history of Enviromarxist lawfare against the US economy. Enviromarxist terrorist organizations sue regulatory agencies, who, when under Democrat control, quickly settle the lawsuits acceding to Envriomarxist demands that often bear no resemblance to the statutory authorities of the regulatory agencies.
The Obama Administration laundered vast sums to favored activist groups using this technique, and now the Biden administration is using it to advance the war on fossil fuels. To further reduce supply while playing class war politics with oil and gas companies whom they are “begging” to increase production.
$9.45/gal!! Thanks to Matthew for this pic of the Chevron in Mendocino, CA- the most expensive station in the country and the highest price we’ve recorded. It’s over $3/gal higher than the California average and is a definite outlier. #gasprices pic.twitter.com/7AUuxDLCGI

The begging is window dressing, just like the speeches about lowering prices or blaming Putin. If you open those curtains and peek at what’s behind the glass, you’ll see environmental extremist activism advancing destructive green new deal priorities without legislative action.
We can’t punish Biden (yet), but we can take it out on the rest of his party. Politicians only understand political pain, so get to work. Find the best Republicans and get them through their primaries, then into elected office.
And then put their feet to the fire and keep them there.
