With gas prices soaring to record highs across the U.S. this week, President Joe Biden said Tuesday that they will continue going up.
When questioned by reporters in Texas of what he’s planning to do, Biden cast blame on Russian President Vladimir Putin, amid the country’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine.
“I can’t do much right now. Russia’s responsible,” Biden said.
As OutKick’s Joe Kinsey relayed Tuesday, the Biden administration announced a ban on the import of Russian oil along with liquefied national gas and coal. Gas prices have risen to an all-time high of $4.17 per gallon in the U.S., over $6 for premium in states such as California.
“This is a step that we’re taking to inflict further pain on Putin,” Biden said, via the New York Post. “But there will be costs as well here in the United States,” Biden said.

A real inspirational guy this fool has never done anything in almost 50 slopping at the govt trough what makes anyone think he can figure anything out now
Sorry Salty, didn’t mean to step on your comment.
I apologize in advance, Salty, but I’m stealing “slopping at the government’s trough'”…
If only he had 50 years of experience in national politics and foreign policy to draw upon…
But it’s just a coincidence that his crackhead son is on the board of a Ukranian gas/oil company, right? I wonder where the surrounding countries are going to get oil/gas now that Russian exports are being banned….
Eh hem bullshit.
Somebody tell this fucking dope that has prices we’re going up before Russia invaded Ukraine. These people just flat out lie about everything thinking Americans are that dumb. More likely, however, is they don’t care what Americans think or feel. To shut down our energy independence so now we’re begging dictatorial countries to sell us oil makes my head hurt.
Absolutely correct!!
And just like that Covid was gone……..
(almost like as if the media made it a bigger deal than needed)

To be fair, every single time this administration “does something” it turns out to be awful and make things worse. So him not doing much may be the best we can hope for.
