Making Biden's Lies Clear

 Biden has been in office for a week now.  That's not very long.  It's about a quarter of one percent of a four year term.  In that short time, however, Biden has made clear that he was lying repeatedly with regard to the American oil and gas industry and his plan to destroy that group of companies.  Remember, literally tens of millions of jobs held by Americans depend on the success of the US oil and gas industry.  In the space of seven days, Biden stopped the Keystone pipeline which is mostly constructed and which would have delivered about 5% of total US energy needs in the form of Canadian oil.  In one move, Biden put American energy independence in jeopardy, angered our Canadian allies, and put tens of thousands of workers building the pipeline out of a job.  Remember, this pipeline was approved four years ago and hundreds of millions of dollars, if not billions, were invested in construction based upon that government approval.  Biden, who said during the campaign that he had no intention of stopping the pipeline, now has done just that.

Then there's fracking and other methods for oil and gas production.  Yesterday, Biden banned any new oil or gas production on federal lands.  This does not pertain to the back yard behind a post office.  The federal government owns all offshore land as well as big chunks of the Western US.  In some states, the federal government owns over 75% of the entire state.  Biden effectively cut off production in a big part of the USA.  In some cases, the areas had already been leased for drilling by the federal government and Biden now is breaching those leases by banning production.

Biden is busy fighting "climate change".  Remember, in 2001, Al Gore told us that if we didn't stop climate change immediately, we were doomed in ten years.  By 2011, ten years later, we were told by climate activists that we only had 12 years left to fight climate change or we would face disaster.  Of course, the problem is that over the last 20 years, world temperatures have not risen in a statistically significant way.  Indeed, there is talk that the currently starting solar minimum could lead to a mini ice age.  No matter; despite the lack of warmer temperatures, every weather even is blamed on climate change.  When there were no hurricanes; it was climate change.  When there were many hurricanes, it was climate change.  Forest fires were due to climate change.  I'm sure there are those who think that the winner of the Super Bowl is determined due to climate change.

The key, here, however, is that Biden lied.  He promised repeatedly that he would not attack the oil and gas industry.  He lied.  The media won't point that out because Biden is a Democrat.   Still, the American people have to recognize Biden for the liar that he is (and has always been).
