In one breath, the Biden administration argues we need to buy oil from Venezuela, Iran, and OPEC in order to lower prices. But in the next breath, they argue that increasing American supply won’t lower prices.
Fox News’s White House correspondent Peter Doocy asked White House press secretary Jen Psaki recently, “Is it possible that Joe Biden will ever say you guys can go ahead with construction of the Keystone XL pipeline?”
Psaki responded, “There’s no plans for that and it would not address any of the problems we’re having currently.”
It would deliver the fuel cheaper and faster than other means, but the fact that oil drilling is being shut down is an even worse problem.
