Politifact: Claim that Biden's Keystone pipeline order drove gas prices up is rated "FALSE""

So the price of gasoline under Dementia Joe has "only" risen 34 cents per gallon and not 50 cents (if we take politifact at their word, and I don't).
Fuel costs vary from place to place.

That's still a substantial rise and cancelling the XL pipeline will only
increase the price of oil even more.
And Biden's multi trillion dollar infrastructure b.s. will cause inflation to
raise the cost even higher. U.S. consumer prices jump to the highest since 2008 as inflation rises

And Joe has us back at the mercy of the Saudis instead of energy independence for the US.

So who is feeling good about the direction we are headed in?
Who thinks Joe is a stable smart leader?
"And Joe has us back at the mercy of the Saudis instead of energy independence for the US".

That ship sailed 6 years ago, thanks to republicans.

Republicans are eyeing upcoming legislation to force a measure on President Obama that would lift the U.S. export ban on crude oil.
America remains the only major oil producing nation that still bans crude exports, and industry experts are widely critical of its current necessity. OPEC nations have used their position to devastate the industry with low prices, as they compete with Russia and fellow members for market share. With America’s oil industry struggling in the wake of low global crude prices, support to repeal the restrictive policy has been growing.

“The ban on crude oil exports is totally contrary to consistent US advocacy of open markets, ever since the Second World War,” Gary Hufbauer, senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, told The Daily Caller News.

Instead Republicans will attempt to attach its fate to key legislation that must be passed before the end of the year. Currently the most likely candidate is the transportation bill reauthorizing federal funds for highway and transit programs, reported The Bismarck Tribune.

“It is must-pass legislation, which means it will be hard for the president to veto, and the benefits of allowing crude oil exports are multiple,” Republican Sen. John Hoeven said in a statement, whose home state of North Dakota has been suffering since the oil price slump.
 
That just shows you that idiots do fact checking.

Joe Dufus shut down a pipleline that was going to efficiently carry large amounts of Canadian oil and that had a great impact on the futures market. Also, all this silly ass Environmental Wacko bullshit the administration is spouting is having dire effects on the market.

They need to turn in their filthy ass Pulitzer Prize. They are morons spouting what the uneducated Left wants to hear.

Keystone XL only helps the Chinese.

We import most oil from Mexico,, Canada and Venezuela. Since Trump decided to punish Vz we are buying from Russia.

US oil exports were banned by the Texas Railroad Commission.
 
So they'll just ship the oil by more environmentally risky and dirtier rail cars.

Ignorant fucking stooge.

Or the Canadian government can just build its own much shorter pipelines across its own country. We don't need to be allowing the Canadian government the right to sieze American citizens' private property and endangering a key aquifier just because they don't want to run their nasty sludge over their own territory. They began springing leaks in their already existing pipeline almost immediately after it was built, and brand new. FRom the sludge pits to Vancouver is only about 720 miles or so, so why ship to Port Arthur at all?

People do know that Trans-Canada is a government owned corporation, right?
 
And when the price of everything in your local stores takes a leap to pay for having goods delivered to them you lefties will be ever-so surprised and resentful. Of the store owners. And want to "nationalize" them.

Or you can let the people who are in the oil business make those determinations for themselves, rather than pretending that being an environmental nanny makes you a savant of business.

Rubbish. Trans-Canada is a Canadian government agency, not an oil company. I can let American citizens keep their private property and protect a vital water supply for all kinds of other American owned business free from a foreign government's poor record of pipeline management. Their limes are built poorly and begin leaking while brand new, and that's a fact. They can build a line on their own land that is many times shorter to an ocean port.
 
Prices for oil rise every day, since Biden became president.

Under Trump, prices dropped dramatically, and stayed low.

Those who do not think it is politicians causing the rise in price are fools.

There wasn't much of a market in 2020 during the pandemic. Demand for oil was down worldwide.
 
prices dropped years before the pandemic, under Trump's policy

under biden, prices rose quickly, dramatically, costing many americans hundreds of dollars a month

Production took off under Obama.. our rig count was higher than the previous 44 years. The reason for that is the ppb was high so companies invested in rigs, exploration and drilling.

US Oil Production under Bush, Obama, and Trump - Insights ...
Oct 27, 2017 · Ironically, he presided over rising oil production in his first 7 years in office (from 2009 to 2016), an increase from 4.9 million bpd, when he took office, to 9.4 million bpd. President Obama
 
The independent Pulitzer winning website notes that the pipeline wasn't even operational, despite the fake news spread by Facebook right winger Ted Nugent.
Facebook flagged the fake news too.
The good news is that if you like fake news, the false claim is widely available in USMB, where right wing nicknames gladly copy and paste what Ted Nugent types.

yet, prices remained extremely high under Obama, so high in fact that the high prices caused Fracking to become a cost effective process, a process Obama fought unsuccessfully, thus resulting in a drop in oil prices contrary to Obama's repressive energy policy.

The US didn't practice fracking and had little expertise in it. Most US wells produce less than 50 bpd so they couldn't afford fracking or gas injections.

Obama wasn't oppressive towards the oil companies. Remember Deepwater Horizon. BP wasn't equipped for deep water drilling and skirted safety regulations in favor of speed.

As noted elsewhere LIBS LIE

 
All the rules, regulations, and banning of drilling was not oppressive?

Under Obama we had 7 years of extremely oppressive fuel costs. That can not denied.

During the Obama years, the US increased production from 4 million bpd to 9 million bpd.
