    1. Biden shuts down all US oil drilling, cancels the pipeline. This caused gas prices to go up, being that everything you own rides on trucks it caused prices to go up. Now our government wants you to think its not there fault so they thow the blame at someone else. WHO KNEW RUSSIA CONTROLED THE WORLDS GAS PRICES…..

    2. Looking like a soft landing for all of bidens illegal immigrants being sent all over the country with free phones just waiting to be used to stuff voter boxs.

    3. ExxonMobil, the country’s largest oil company, reported its net profit more than doubled to nearly $5.5 billion from a year earlier. Chevron reported its highest quarterly profit in nearly a decade, while Shell posted its highest earnings ever. Gas prices are primarily determined by global crude oil prices, which hit nearly $120 a barrel.

    4. Why isn’t Biden doing anything. When Trump was president this never happened. We need a republican as president maybe not trump but a republican.

    5. If this FOOL of a president did not stop the US production of its OWN OIL then this would not have happen irrespective of the war in Ukraine. Hate Trump how much you want but he had the RIGHT ECONOMIC idea for the country. This IDIOTIC president and his backers wish to see America fall and become a socialist state. They are doing a fine job in getting it there.

    6. I'm glad to see 80 million people voted for this. They should give themselves a pat on the back for their great decision.

    7. How odd, we only learned of the "invasion" in Feb, Russia has been "invading" since last Feb? Biden's inflation is out of control and things will just get worse. Thank you democrats for the pain and poverty. We owe you one big time in November.

    8. US gave security guarantees to Ukraine, in exchange for a break from nuclear weapons .. today America is simply obliged to supply Ukraine with nuclear weapons that will stop the war and destroy the Russian occupying army

    9. has anyone come up with successful alternatives to blue and black pen, I am from bangladesh so I am muslim. Enemies everywhere, bangldadeshi's have hindu, sino, arab-jewish-chrsitian, native indian (north and south america), africa, and Bangladeshi's themselves as they all argue to fight off the PBUH .

      Anything? What about the people who are sexually active in the neighborhood? Anything? Anything other than mass shootings?

    10. all intentional, DEMOCRATS said they wanted YOU off oil, coal and natural gas. THIS IS THE RESULT! remember who did this to you during midterm elections

    11. It's all a SCAM!! Perpetrated by the Republican owned, oil industry. No coincidence that they're making record profits, while fuel is at it's highest. The US is full of stupid, people 😔!!!
