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.
The Trump Administration’s Bureau of Land Management has opened up 720,000 acres for mineral development in California. Fracking leases for oil and gas.
A new name can be added to the exciting cabal of likely Ukraine-Democrat corruption. Paul Pelosi. Paul is the son of politician/millionaire Speaker of the US House, Nancy Pelosi. And Paul has an energy company with dealings in Ukraine.
Part of the problem with Democrats, and there are plenty of them, is that their obsession with keeping oil in the ground is not just impractical; it is impossible.
One of the great things about being around for so long is that we’ve got a massive archive. Years of reporting and links about Democrat behavior. Like how the moment gas prices inch up they yell at Republicans and claim they are shills enriching big oil.
It’s become clear that the White House Ukraine leaker (a CIA plant) was used to create a second collusion narrative. The purpose, like the original, is to pin left-Wing malfeasance to Donald Trump and hope the truth gets lost in the noise.
The initial reaction to the Iranian backed strike against their Saudi enemies energy infrastructure was a 20% spike in oil. That lasted a day. Prices quickly dropped and a week later oil prices remain stable.
Iranian totalitarians have a lot in common with Democrats. They get to poke you, attack you, insult you, smear you, whatever they want. If you dare to even speak of retaliation, they promise all-out war. Well, Iran is behind an attack on the global oil supply. So, guess what?
You can still get gas for $2.19 a gallon in my town even after Iranian proxies attacked a major Saudi oil facility. But for how long? Within a day the average price for a barrel of oil shot up 20%, which sounds like a lot until you realize that only lifts it to $70.00 per barrel.

Last summer the price of oil did something it does around Memorial Day. It spiked. Democrats declared doom for the economy, and it was President Trump’s fault.
Venezuela is a major oil producing nation and unless you missed it that country is a mess. Iran is dealing with “crushing sanctions™” that will expand to other nations who continue to buy their oil as of today. OPEC cut production quotas in January. Why is gas in the US still so cheap?
New Mexico’s gun-grabbing governor just signed the Energy Transition Act. This bold and innovative grasp at the impossible requires the state to shift to 50% renewable energy by 2030 and 100% by 2045. A state that relies on massive amounts of oil and gas revenue to fund public education.
