In California prices are back at all time high range though. Only reason I’ve found so far is they are saying refineries offline for planned maintenance reducing overall localized supply.

Here on the military base it’s 6.15. Significantly higher off base

So Biden did not tap the strategic reserve for political reasons?

Please tell me why he did it.

The strategic reserve is at a 40 year low. We have drained it by half. This is objectively true.

Do you not agree than any attempt to refill it at this point will cause oil prices to rise further?

You are a dim bulb.

So why is OPEC cutting production by 2 million barrels a day?

Gas Prices go down: Biden did that
Gas Prices go up: Trump/Putin/Covid/White Supremacy did that

Same shite, different toilet.

Powerman, I’m making fun of the press secretary.

She claimed it was all Biden’s doing when it fell.

Now that it is rising again, she is claiming that it is nuanced.

That’s the joke.

Well obviously, but we as a culture always blame the president on shite like this, so I'm certainly not going to stop because a geriatric nursing home patient is our Pres.

Just like nobody on here cared when I spent 2 years struggling to get by after the pandemic, on the heels of another personal tragedy. I didn’t openly complain about it everyday so it likely wasn’t noticed.

Sorry if you’re temporarily inconvenienced by current fuel prices.
