Brandon calls Chevon CEO ‘mildly sensitive’ in tangle with oil executive

President Biden called the chief executive of oil giant Chevron “mildly sensitive” after he wrote a letter to the president accusing the Biden administration of vilifying the oil and gas industry over high prices.
Biden made the comments in an exchange with reporters Tuesday afternoon when asked about the letter penned by Chevron CEO Michael Wirth, who, along with other oil executives, is scheduled to meet with Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm later this week.
“He’s mildly sensitive,” Biden said. “I didn’t know they’d get their feelings hurt that quickly. Look, we need more refining capacity. This idea that they don’t have oil to drill and to bring up is simply not true.”
“We ought to be able to work something out whereby they’re able to increase refining capacity and still not give up on transitioning to renewable energy,” Biden continued. “They’re both within realm of possibility.”
Wirth sent a letter to Biden earlier Tuesday arguing that Chevron was doing its part to increase oil and gas production amid a period of high demand. He also argued that the industry needs more support from the administration in order to boost energy security long term.
“Chevron and its 37,000 employees work every day to help provide the world with the energy it demands and to lift up the lives of billions of people who rely on these supplies,” Wirth wrote to Biden. “Notwithstanding these efforts, your Administration has largely sought to criticize, and at times vilify, our industry. These actions are not beneficial to meeting the challenges we face and are not what the American people deserve.”

His entire voting base wants to abolish the 1st Amendment for fear of offending someone. Frick that hypocrite.

Wow, the CEO needs to go scorched earth at this point… he was too gentle in his first letter, time to burn it all down. He needs to come out and say straight up “we are not drilling or refining as much purely bc of Bidens policies and fear we will be left holding the bag”
Teaches you to play nice.

Tell me you never run a business, without telling me you've never run a business.
"Let's invest billions (of your dollars) in refining infrastructure that I'll require you to demolish or stop operations on in 2 years. That should be possible, right?"

I’m just surprised Joe was awake for comment.

Biden knows more about the inner workings of the oil industry than Chevron.

Didn’t Biden campaign against fossil fuels and vowed to eliminate big oil companies? But now he’s asking them to drill more? I’m so confused

2020 “we are gong to get rid of fossil fuels”
2022 gas prices double “oil companies bad”

There is a site somewhere that someone on Twitter posted with the price of gas tracking along with his energy EO's and documents the rise.
His meeting is pure optics to make stupid people think he's doing something.
I will full 100% guarantee that if those EO's were eliminated tomorrow, these prices would drop drastically.

This is the guy that said he's putting oil companies out of business and now he's upset that he's following through with his plans

Actually that's just everyday ordinary Dem unicorn fart silliness. Yep, according to Dems you can indeed have your cake and eat it too.

Who would have guessed that the CEO of a major oil company would be upset about a tirade against companies like his from the leader of the free world?

What sustainable, less expensive, readily available renewable energy source are we currently transitioning to?
