Putin has been fucking with Ukraine for decades. He invaded the Donbas in 2014 and took Crimea while Trump was on office.

Gas prices are coming down.

What else are you whining about??

Prove to me with links regarding Putin/Ukraine?
1) Putin felt it right to invade under Obama and Biden as Vice-President
Remember this about Biden and Ukraine?
Biden said, ‘You’re not getting the billion.’ I’m going to be leaving here in, I think it was about six hours. I looked at them and said: ‘I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money,’” Biden recalled telling Poroshenko.
Well, son of a bitch, he got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid at the time,” Biden told the Council on Foreign Relations event, insisting that President Obama was in on the threat.
The prosecutor he got fired was leading a wide-ranging corruption probe into the natural gas firm Burisma Holdings that employed Biden’s younger son, Hunter, as a board member.

2) Hamas felt they were able to have war with Israel... while Trump authorized US embassy in Jerusalem.
3) Now while Biden is President, China threatens to invade Taiwan

Now as far as gas prices...not me but experts!
But even if American consumers are enjoying gas prices down more than 20% from their peak, it’s not a particularly good idea for Biden to be taking too much credit for the decline, said Tom Kloza, global head of energy analysis for OPIS, which tracks prices for AAA.

Take the Times article, an OP-ED, and worse, and Op-Ed by John Solomon--"magnifying small scandals, creating fake controversies, and advancing conspiracy theories". That is his reputation. And in regards to the very op-ed you have the audacity, or more likely, the ignorance, to post is referenced here.

State Department official: Right-wing narratives about Ukraine were “entirely made up in full cloth”

www.mediamatters.org

But to the article about gas prices. Some selected quotes,


The only thing that climbed as high as gas prices earlier this year was the disapproval of President Joe Biden, as Americans blamed him for record prices at the pump. But Biden had relatively little control over the prices set primarily by global markets.
Hell, that is the very first sentence in the article. To support your claim that Biden is to blame for higher gas prices you post an article that clearly states, in the very first damn line, that Biden had very little control over prices set primarily by global markets. Do you enjoy demonstrating your ignorance? Another quote from the article,

US oil and gasoline prices have also been helped by a rising dollar, which is up 12% versus the Euro since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and also up against other major and minor world currencies.

Since oil futures are priced in dollars, that has helped to limit the increase paid by US consumers, since their dollars are going farther. But it is driving up oil and gasoline prices even more around the globe since more of those currencies are needed to buy oil and gasoline in dollars.

“That means the fears of recession are that much greater in other countries,” said Lipow. And the more economies around the globe that fall into recession, the more that could reduce global demand.
The dollar up 12%. I mean imagine, if the dollar had jumped by 12% under Trump. He would have been tooting his horn at every opportunity, FOX news would have a news alert running at the bottom of the screen, Trump increases value of the dollar by 12%. The Heritage Foundation would be doing major studies, and PJ media would be running an article every single day about how the value of the dollar was increasing and how that helps American consumers.

But nope, we never even heard about the value of the dollar under Trump, because it dropped like a damn lead balloon. But hey, you are playing in my wheelhouse now. Interest rates, international currencies. How about a blast from the past.

I mean if MAGA means our international reputation and standing, well by God, Biden MAGA. And the most impressive part, he did it with absolutely no help from worthless Republicans.

But I will leave with you with some quotes from your last linked article,

The fact that most illicit fentanyl is smuggled through POEs adds credence to nationwide evidence that illicit drugs are predominantly smuggled through land ports, not between. CBP’s data shows fentanyl smuggling to the U.S. is increasing, most of it is smuggled through the southern border, and a majority of that comes through ports of entry.

And what the article doesn't state is most of that smuggling is done by American citizens. I mean get real, you think someone is going to tote a backpack full of fentanyl across the Arizona desert? More quotes,

AMO seized a total of 304,400 pounds of illicit drug substances nationwide in FY 2023.[1] CBP’s AMO data does not indicate a downward trend in seizures by pound similar to the downward trends at the southern and northern borders, but rather points to an overall increase in FY 2023:

Seizures at both the Northern and the Southern border are down. But at the airports and the ports, we are seeing an increase. I mean some of us have known this all along. The illegal immigration problem, the illegal drug smuggling problem, it ain't at the borders, it never has been. Hell, over half of all illegals got here in a damn airplane. The whole obsession over the border is just a dog whistle to the racist pricks like you. And oh hell, increased restrictions on air travel, well hell, we can't have that.

So, you chew on the above post. I mean I am an optimist. Maybe it will be the motivation you need to pull your head out of your damn ass.

3) Biden’s Order to Freeze New Oil Drilling on Federal Land: What You Need to Know

 

[surada]

So Trump did what ALL politicians have done INCLUDING OBAMA!!! Hyperinflating the story! But the biased MSM is the worst at
pushing Democrats and reporting negatively on Trump especially and GOP as a whole.
Here is a classic example: CNN's so-called "fact checking"!

CNN's Facts First searchable database - CNN

Search CNN’s Facts First database for fact checks related to the U.S. economy, mail-in voting, coronavirus, police reform and more.

www.cnn.com

Here is the total effort...
CLAIM
"We've done well with health care anyway. We got rid of the individual mandate. And if you look at that, that was a big thing with Obamacare. That was the end of Obamacare."
CONCLUSION
The individual mandate, which required Americans to obtain health insurance, was indeed a key part of Obamacare -- but it was not "the end of Obamacare" when Republicans repealed the mandate in their 2017 tax bill. Key components of the Obamacare law remain.
EVIDENCE
The bill did not eliminate Obamacare's expansion of the Medicaid insurance program for low-income people, the federal and state marketplaces that allow people to shop for coverage, or the consumer subsidies that help many of them make the purchases. While Trump continued to take other steps to weaken Obamacare, much of it still exists.

My example is this statement:The bill did not eliminate Obamacare's expansion of the Medicaid insurance program for low-income people,
Now for the REST of the story that CNN clearly didn't know or if they did, DID NOT share!
FACT:
Source: Jonathan Gruber"architect" of Obamacare, who said at one time why Obamacare was passed..
" And basically, call it the 'stupidity of the American voter'
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...-for-stupidity-of-the-american-voter-comment/
Another FACT from Gruber: who said ...
" using data from the Census Bureau, estimate that Medicaid “produced 63% of the gains [in coverage] that we identified” for 2014.
Obamacare architect Gruber called YOU stupid for voting for Obamacare!
63% of the enrollees WERE ALREADY ELIGIBLE BEFORE OBAMACARE! Do you understand?
These 63% never knew they were eligible BEFORE Obamacare... why didn't Obamacare concentrate on USING existing Medicaid allocations to get these 63% enrolled BEFORE creating the gigantic wasteful Obamacare? Obama's lie has been totally exposed:
"46 million uninsured"was not the whole truth, because:

• 11 million were illegals
• 14 million were eligible for Medicaid..

New Gruber Study Raises Major Questions About Obamacare's Medicaid Expansion​

Fewer new Medicaid enrollees were made eligible by the ACA than thought.
Gruber and his coauthors, using data from the Census Bureau, estimate that Medicaid
“produced 63% of the gains [in coverage] that we identified” for 2014.
They also found that much of this gain was attributable to the enrollment in Medicaid of people who were eligible for the program under criteria that preceded the ACA’s Medicaid expansion:
Dividing Gruber’s estimate of the percentage gain in coverage of Medicaid enrollees who were eligible before the ACA by the percentage gain in coverage attributable to Medicaid overall means that 70% of new Medicaid enrollees in 2014 were eligible for the program under pre-ACA rules.

New Gruber Study Raises Major Questions About Obamacare's Medicaid Expansion

A new study suggests that people who were already eligible for Medicaid before the ACA have been inappropriately categorized as though they are newly eligible because of the ACA and that a lot fewer people than previously thought would lose coverage if the ACA is repealed.

www.forbes.com

So for those of you that don't deal with reality.. ONE of several LIES Obama told like :

Obama's 'You Can Keep It' Promise Is 'Lie Of The Year'​

Obama's 'You Can Keep It' Promise Is 'Lie Of The Year'

The nonpartisan PolitiFact has given the president's claim about his health care program a dubious honor. Obama said that "if you like your health care plan, you can keep it." When it became clear that wasn't correct, the White House tried to "rewrite his slogan," the fact checkers say.

www.npr.org

​

Another Obama lie:
"We are not a nation that accepts nearly 46 million uninsured men, women and children,"

New Gruber Study Raises Major Questions About Obamacare's Medicaid Expansion

A new study suggests that people who were already eligible for Medicaid before the ACA have been inappropriately categorized as though they are newly eligible because of the ACA and that a lot fewer people than previously thought would lose coverage if the ACA is repealed.

www.forbes.com

So if 70% of Obamacare enrollees were already eligible for Medicaid WHY NOT just simple make them aware?

Remember Gruber (architect of Obamacare) who said it passed because of the "And basically, call it the 'stupidity of the American voter'
Think about that! Obama and now Biden depend on the ignorance of the voters!
YOU that supported Obama/Biden are considered by Democrat leaders as stupid!

Oil companies DID because it was less expensive than private lands.

Oil and gas companies would pay more to drill on public lands under new Biden rule​

A rule proposed by the Interior Department raises royalty rates for oil drilling by more than one-third, to 16.67%, in accordance with the sweeping climate law approved by Congress last year. The previous rate of 12.5% paid by oil and gas companies for federal drilling rights had remained unchanged for a century

Oil and gas companies would pay more to drill on public lands under new Biden rule

The Biden administration is proposing new rules for the nation’s oil and gas leasing program to raise costs for energy companies to drill on public lands and strengthen requirements to clean up old wells where drilling is completed or abandoned.

SO guess who ultimately pays for Biden's new rules as....

Please, you got to be kidding me. The royalty rate hasn't changed in A HUNDRED FLIPPIN YEARS. And it makes no sense to charge less to drill on federal land than on state land. Texas royalty rate is 25%. Is that affecting prices at the pump? Your article said cost would increase by 1. 8 billion dollars OVER TEN YEARS.
