Democrat states have some of the highest oil prices in the country. When I left California and came back, one of the things that always hit me hard was seeing per gallon oil prices that were double those outside it. I sometimes snapped photos of truly insane, like $7 a gallon, gas prices.
But to Gov. Gavin Newsom and the Democrat elites who were out to wipe out cars, this was a feature, not a bug.
It’s why Senate Democrats sabotaged efforts to refill the strategic reserve that Biden had drained in a desperate election bid.
It’s why they used to argue, as per this Harvard post, “High Oil Prices Can Help the Environment”.
Now suddenly these people are pretending to be upset about high oil prices. Gov. Gavin Newsom, whose taxes and regulations made gas prices so high in his state, is now blaming President Trump over the price of a barrel.
Here’s the thing though. Two weeks or so of bombing Iran may temporarily send oil prices higher, but they’re more likely to secure and stabilize the region in the long term. Either way it’s a temporary phenomenon whereas Dems have a party agenda of hiking oil prices permanently.
That’s why the Obama and Biden administrations waged a relentless war on drilling permits in the United States.

Ha! Good one. Gas prices……scuse me, oil prices…….are like affordability and Epstain to the D-Bags. Whatever they create, they pretend to “feel our pain” about.
As if America ever got oil or gas from Iran in the last 46 years. The vampire class of market manipulators at the Wall Street Journal and hanging upside down from lamp posts are spitting blood but the rest of us are yawning in our Manischewitz.
“Higher oil prices are like a tax, cutting into household consumption while boosting
inflation and interest rates.” From today’s Wall Street Journal.
Tell us again how tariffs, a tax on imports, brings prices down.
Tell us again how the Wall Street Journal vampires report the “truth.”
They’r like Joke Bidumb, Eric Swallowwell and Heels Up Harris. Nobody takes them seriously. Just like you, Al Biteadick.
You’re wrong once again Jeff…
Iran has the Hormuz Straight blocked off… except for letting Chinese & Russian tankers through. Which is why insurance companies won’t cover other ships.
It’s a big mess…
Because 25% of the world’s oil goes through the Hormuz… not just coming from Iran.
And last I heard… there’s been attacks on Refineries… and Trump is mad about it. The entire world is…
Evidently Israel started it with attacking the oil refineries…
Your IRGC butt buddies don’t have shit cut off, much less the Strait of YourMomma.
The Iranian Navy met the bottom of the Persian Gulf in the morning of Saturday, February 28th, by God’s calendar. Cry me a river, bitch boy.
In Jan 2008, Jug-earred Barry said in a radio interview that coal-fired plants would be made bankrupt, and that electricity prices would necessarily skyrocket.
Leftist idiots have always schemed to drive energy prices beyond reach in the goal of forcing us to switch to “green” energy.
Obama’s over-priced college degree yielded him a piece of paper; zero wisdom
(Not a single person in his administration ever held a job in the private sector.)
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools. Roman’s 1:22
(“We are the ones we’ve been waiting for!” – Obama’s grand proclamation of himself to the unwashed masses.)
That reminded me, of the first time I encountered someone working in the public sector, with a neat clean desk, and a few papers stacked on it. Before that I had only seen private sector desks, stacked with messy piles of paper several feet high.
Numerous angles in California by the Democrats drove gas prices up.
Ask someone how much federal and state gas taxes add to the price of one gallon of gas. In California it’s nearly 71 cents per gallon on top of the fed tax of 18 cents. This is the highest in the nation.
I don’t believe that accounts for all the state taxes on gas. Washington state for example commonly lists as about 59 cents per gallon. But there’s an additional carbon tax applied to oil companies that add another 50 cents. (These are also just exclusive taxes, oil companies also have to pay the taxes other businesses do such as labor taxes.)
For the last several years, my senior senator (Patty Murray) has vowed to continue going after the greedy oil companies. She has nothing to show for her efforts. Not one example of price gouging. On the other hand, the state makes far more per gallon than the oil companies. Through direct taxes and carbon taxes, they have a profit of over $1 per gallon. They also have none of the risk of losses that the oil companies have. She needs to refocus her attack on greed to the state capitol.
That skank dyke Patty Furry was never elected.
Yeah but I still drive all over the state. Fuck Greasehead Newscum.
Perhaps Governor Brylcreem thinks the price of hair oil will increase.
High gas prices, getting rid of cars etc is all part of Agenda 21/Agenda 2030! Change our lives permanently in every way possible to, especially, bring down the western world (which is/was Judeo Christian)! That’s their whole agenda!
Without high gas prices …
how will the Left justify coal-fired golf carts with Chicom batteries made out of RARE from black-child-slave mines?
Come on, man!
Are you a White Supremacist who wants Gaia to burn?!
Gaia is covertly part of the anti-spiritual program of the radical left.
Democrats have no values, only goals. Therefore, they interpret ant event in a way that advances their nefarious intentions. Sadly, many people still are susceptible to their disingenuous arguments.
