FOR THE RECORD:
“Team Biden loves to talk about the 9,000 leases that oil and gas companies possess on which production has not started. It is probably important to note that the oil and gas companies are working on more than 37,000 leases in total; they are already producing oil and natural gas on about 75% of all the federal leases they hold. The ones that are not producing are, in many cases, because the federal government has not issued the relevant permits; the administration is sitting on more than 4,500 permit applications at the moment. It is also important to remember that a tiny percentage – about 2% – of the acreage under federal stewardship is actually available for energy production.” – MICHAEL McKENNA
“Special note to the RNC: Now’s a good time to open up mobile voter registration sites – at gasoline stations!” – GARY BAUER
THE BIG LIE:
“The current spike in gas prices is largely the fault of Vladimir Putin. It has nothing to do with the American Rescue Plan.” – JOE BIDEN
“Fact-check: ‘Current spike’ may be partly correct, but the problem is that Biden enabled Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, so the blame for that spike immediately comes full circle. As for Biden’s so-called American Rescue Plan, that was $1.9 trillion in taxpayer-funded graft to fill a $300 billion economic hole created by the ChiCom Virus pandemic. The remaining $1.6 trillion is indisputably a major factor in the inflation now crushing family budgets.” – MARK ALEXANDER
“Nobody buys Democrats’ efforts to blame 14 months of failed policies on three weeks of crisis in Europe. Inflation and gas prices were skyrocketing and hurting families long before late last month. The White House needs to stop trying to deny their mistakes and start fixing them.” – SENATE GOP LEADER MITCH McCONNELL
NEVER READY FOR PRIME TIME:
“The United States stands firmly with the Ukrainian people in defense of the NATO alliance.” – KAMALA HARRIS
(It must be noted that Ukraine is not a member of NATO)
