Another major idiotic Biden decision!!!

[Ray From Cleveland]

It was meant to carry low grade shale oil not for US markets
Why do you care?

You tried spreading that lie in other topics. I posted a Politifact article for you explaining you don't know what you're talking about. Need me to post it again?

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

There weren't 30 million illegals then either, not even close. Though I thought it was wrong then too. Eisenhower had it right, Operation Wetback.

Hell, Biden has added 5 million in less than two years, much more than received amnesty under Reagan

The BP reported over a quarter million contacts in October alone, a new record high.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

What a stupid post. The ONLY reason Trump approved the Keystone XL, was because Obama turned it down, on the basis of the environmental assessment reports. NOBODY WANTED THE KEYSTONE PIPELINE EXCEPT TRUMP - TO SPITE OBAMA.

Such utter bullshit. The oil is moving across our country with or without the pipeline. Without the pipeline it's moving by rail. What environmental assessment report ever concluded it's safer for the environment to move oil by rail instead of moving it through a pipeline?

Biden says he and Mayorkas are doing a good job and will continue to do the same job.

Folks, they just admitted the plan is to get as many illegals here as they can in Biden's four years and Schumer has already talked about amnesty and a fast track to citizenship.

Add on to this the fraudulent interpretation of the 14th Amendment citizenship clause which they claim makes anyone born in the USA an automatic citizen even when the mother is here illegally.

They are admitting to replacement theory. It is the plan since Hart-Celler.

Not mentioning the ones they had no contact with.

Gas prices are determined by the gas and oil companies, not the president. BTW.............can you explain why prices are so high (although, they've dropped significantly, just bought gas today at 2.96/gal), yet oil companies are seeing record profits?

Rampant inflation? Yeah, that might be on the government.

Fentanyl deaths? Might wanna talk to China about that, as that is where most of the stuff comes from.

Illegals entering America? That's been going on for years, even before Biden took office. Blame the policies that ALL presidents have enacted (even Reagan), not just Biden.

Transgenders brainwashing children? How many transgendered people do you see in a week? I'm guessing you probably haven't even seen more than one (and that was probably on TV).

If oil companies set the prices, we would have been paying over $10.00 a gallon for at least the last 20 years. The prices of all fuels are controlled by the market. The market responds to news of all fuels, and we were stupid enough to replace a pro-energy President with an anti-energy President.

When this happens, the market gets shaky. Investors (who actually set the price for fuels) watch carefully. When Dementia stopped the Keystone, it gave investors every reason to believe he wasn't just talking the talk, he's walking the walk, and the price of gasoline increased.

Afterwards he took several other actions that caused the increase of prices such as making the statement that it's not governments concern when the Russians hacked our largest gasoline pipeline. He doubled the royalty fees on oil companies. He stopped all new drilling and leases on public land.

With each measure, the price of gasoline increased until the Ukraine invasion where it shot to the ceiling.

And what we really have to worry about is the lame ducks in Congress pass a blanket amnesty bill. The 20 million illegals in this country is a figure that goes back to at least 20 years. It's probably more than double that.

The risk now is that they can turn our country into a single-party government forever with no competition. That means the end of the great experiment. The country will quickly turn socialist for a few short years before it turns completely Communist.

And the leftoids would cheer that on.

Hopefully the weakness and chaos of 2 more years of Joey leads to mega-major civil disruption.
Odds are it will.

“Mega-major civil disruption” may sound great to you right now but if and when it happens it will not be the fun you expect.

I can see the possibility that the United States will break apart but I hope the breakup will be peaceful.

The Great Lady carrying the Torch is tougher than you give her credit for. The United States goes through these fits and always comes back strong. Just remember, just stating you are a patriot doesn't mean you really are one. I gave more than 20 years service to the USA and people like me ARE Patriots. And we won't allow anything or anyone to tear the country down without a fight whether it's philosophical or other. The so called Patriots really need to pay the sacrifice to earn the right to call themselves patriots

They aren't doing a whole lot and right now, that's what we need.

Folks, they just admitted the plan is to get as many illegals here as they can in Biden's four years and Schumer has already talked about amnesty and a fast track to citizenship.

So you speak for them and all the rest of us as well? You can't be. You never asked me therefore, "They" doesn't count. "You" think this and keep harping about it but you never asked "They".

Add on to this the fraudulent interpretation of the 14th Amendment citizenship clause which they claim makes anyone born in the USA an automatic citizen even when the mother is here illegally.

The 14th needs to be updated. Anchor Babies should not work. It doesn't work almost anywhere else other than the United States. Plus, are you aware that more than a few will enlist in the US Military and at the end of their enlistment, they are subject to deportation? Is that right?

They are admitting to replacement theory. It is the plan since Hart-Celler.

There you go with the "They" again.

Oil companies control the market by limiting production.
Notice how gas prices shoot up on just the threat of an oil reduction while when supplies actually increase, the price at the pump gradually decreases.

Why don’t we see 20 cent drops in gas prices like we see 20 cent increases?

 

[ChemEngineer]

That and loosing criminals upon us and restraining those that would protect us. I just hope I live to see the day they get what's coming to them.

Tex, change your footer now. I told you who the author is. Give the man credit.

What are you talking about? We see it all the time around here. Gas stations respond to the market prices. That's why they all change at the same time.

Supply and demand is the major factor of anything from gasoline to college. Presidents like the moron we have now affects those prices much more than oil companies do. The market has regulations on artificially increasing or decreasing production to control the prices. A US President can do what he wants when he wants.

Yeah, I tried to verify that and saw attributions to three different people, so I'm good with what I got.

“People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.”​

― George Orwell

Orwell is the person that the quote is attributed to, but there have been others (some before him) who stated pretty much the same sentiment. Apparently, Orwell never said that quote per se, but he did express the sentiment, just in different words.

Here's a link that goes over it...................

Kipling was actually one of the first to express that sentiment.

Hey OP, you do know that when Biden revoked Keystone's lease, it was only 8 percent built, right? Even if Biden hadn't stopped Keystone, it still wouldn't be operational today, it would be several years from completion, even now.

Are you ever not a dumbass?

Fact: The Keystone Pipeline System was over half complete. At the time the presidential cross-border permit was revoked, construction of the 1,120-mile Keystone XL segment was on track to be completed in 2022, with operations starting in early 2023.

Misunderstood Keystone XL a Reminder of the Importance of Critical Infrastructure

More than a year after its cancellation by President Biden on his first day in office, the Keystone XL crude oil pipeline remains a flashpoint in a larger public debate over the impacts of his administration’s policies – on American energy security, consumer costs and even the Russia-Ukraine war.

Timing is everything. Right now the left is trying to stir up the right to get a patriot led “Mega-major civil disruption” so it an be squashed and used as an excused to ban and confiscate firearms.

At this moment there is not enough support for an uprising. If the Democrats are rigging elections there will be the necessary support in perhaps a decade. We still have time to use the system to vote the Democrats out and I hope we will. Peaceful change is always better than violent change if it can be accomplished.

Our nation could also break apart peacefully For example Texas might just decide to leave the Union followed by several other states. Why stay in a Union when you live on a border the nation refuses to enforce. Of course if our nation spits we will probably end up ruled by the Chinese (especially if we ever give up our right to own firearms.)

Normally, I would say that you have a right to expound these ideas.. But today, those words are stirring up the fruitcakes with the ARs. I support your right to express yourself but when it goes into application then this is where Patriots like me will stand. You are advocating finishing what Rump and his bunch started for Jan6. I took an oath 5 times promising that I would stand against you and what you want. The part of the oath is "Domestic Terrorists".
