    All I can do in the light of your false, left wing propaganda, is continue repeating the TRUTH:
    Administration (EIA) show that US oil output in 2021 was still down about 100,000 B/D from 2020 and down more than 1.1 million B/D from 2019.

    (https://jpt.spe.org/us-oil-went-back-to-work-in-2021)


    US oil production remains below pre-pandemic levels. (https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/17/energy/oil-biden-ftc/index.html)

    Is that all you know? You think it was just the Keystone XL? God are you Democrats uninformed. Democrats stopped the Constitution pipeline and the Atlantic Coast Pipeline. The Biden Administration shut down the EastMed Pipeline in favor of the Nordstream. There's ten natural gas pipelines that were shutdown by Democrats across the country. This is in addition to Storage facilities and Port Improvements for freighting and refueling Vessels. I have read 40 or 50 state and regional infrastructure plans published in the United States that had those types of improvements, and they always get cancelled cause of moronic arguments like environmental racism and absurd claims of habitat destruction. Liberal AGs and Democrat third party groups mire these projects in lawsuits. They do the same for precious metal excavators that would alleviate supplies of green energy and chip production. I read about these incidents in stock earning reports all the time. An approved project with a month or year-long lead time.

    You don't know dick. You need to educate yourself, because school and bogus media outlets aren't going to give you a working mind. So many liberal countries at the the beginning of 2021 rejected Biden's plan to work on environmental issues cause they all knew that they were vulnerable to natural gas markets and supply chains. China is burning Coal cause they need to do it. Australia built their pipeline, and Canada would like more pipelines. Germany made a deal with Russia for the Nordstream. Spain, UK, and Italy have all built or secured pipelines, despite the environmentalists that started sitting in front of traffic in protest. The Democrat POV is ridiculous.

    And the worst part about their argument is that Biden pissed off our Gulf Suppliers by failing to meet obligations in the ME peace deal. He started his administration by calling the Saudis vermin, and then proceeded to cancel weapons contracts. So the Saudis F-ed us real good by not increasing output when we needed it. As soon as Biden got into office, they were already seeking ways to blow up our Middle East Peace deal by sending Kerry to Iran with Israeli Intelligence. They even shared their intelligence on Russia with China, because I guess they had no idea that they were allies (idiots). Israel, India, Egypt, the UAE and Saudi Arabia would have been pivotal players in the Ukraine conflict, but how are they suppose to work with Democrats?

    Democrats fail again and again and 81,000,000 voters ignore history and keep voting for them. The definition of insanity...

    125,900 B/D to be exact. And bx4 is trying to give Biden some kind of bragging rights about it even though Biden is back in court fighting tooth and nail to lower production.

    Not bragging about anything. Correcting your error.

    I’m glad you now acknowledge that production is up, even if you say it is in spite of Biden.

    Production of oil products...........like gas, helps us be energy independent. Do you object to it or something?

    The one who DID NOT sign a deal to CUT oil production…..

    Tell me, when a president leaves office, do all of their deals, treaties, and laws that they are signatory on, then become defunct ?

    Remember how Obama spent 8 years trying to blame his every ****up on Bush? Good times. The democrat allergy to responsibility is troubling.

    They keep regurgitating this stupid line about oil or Natural Gas leases. An oil lease is worthless without a pipeline. So if a bunch of owners pool their oil or NG leases (some ancient) together or one company buys the rights, those leases will essentially become worthless if there's no pipeline to transport it. The Lawsuits alone could bankrupt the whole project.

    These are just some of the Pipelines that have been rejected by D state and federal politicians, Administrative Agencies, and Left-wing groups with nonsensical arguments:
    Atlantic Coast Pipeline in NC, VA, WVA (LNG)
    Mountain Valley Pipeline in VA and WVA
    PennEast Pipeline Cancelled by NJ (LNG)
    Biden wants to cancel the Enbridge Line 5 WI/MI (Oil)
    Line 3 Oil Pipeline Minnesota
    Alaska’s LNG Pipeline
    Dakota Access Pipeline Shutdown
    The Permian Gas Pipeline in TX had to fight legal battles
    Jordan Cove LNG Terminal and it’s connector, The Pacific Connector Pipeline, were opposed by leftists
    Biden Cancelled the EastMed Pipeline from Israel, Greece, and Cyprus

    This is the reason or national security is at risk. This is the reason Russia had the opportunity to invade Ukraine. These Biden and Obama Ass-Kissing Morons didn't realize that they were just exporting those industries overseas just like they're doing with Green Energy cause of their Antifada against mining for precious metals. They put the economic engine that drives our Constitutional Republics (& Democracies) at the whim of these Communist and Nazi Governments cause you think white people are the root of all evil, and now all of these countries are passively rubber-stamping Russia's Actions. You got European Politicians that refuse to visit major economic and military powers cause they won't condemn Russia. From South America to SE Chinese, the Left-Wing Governments in NA and Europe has lost enormous influence with developing countries. Even Mexico won't condemn Russia, but at least Biden built inroads with Iran. Every country in the world seems to see this situation as a real gamble, because Russia and China look more and more like champs.

    The price of getting oil of the ground and refined into gasoline,diesel,heating oil etc did NOT SUDDENLY GET MORE EXPENSIVE, but the opportunity to make far higher profits did.

    Bush did a really good job F-ing up the country, but he and Cheney take a bribe in exchange for making wrong choices that profit their friends and family. Just like Biden. I have no doubt that Biden's family is making money off foreign oil and natural gas, because there's such a long trail of evidence demonstrating his criminally complicit behavior via Hunter Biden. The Democrats should discard Biden like the Trump Republicans discarded Bush.

    You want to know why Putin waited for Trump to leave before invading Ukraine? Watch the Video of Obama. That's some mind-F###ing when Putin tells Obama where to sit. He went to that meeting looking for Putin's approval instead of carrying himself in the same manner as when he talks to the American people with the teleprompter. Instead, Obama composes himself as if he needs Putin's respect and approval, and won't ask for it cause he thinks it makes him look weak, or doesn't want to demand it cause he thinks he might offend. Putin doesn't care about offense. He's an alpha. He doesn't care where you sit, but asking him for permission solidifies to him that you are not decisive (Syria Red-Line).

    An lease is NOT a PROVEN RESERVE. They might lease hundreds of acres and only two have any oil that can be drilled.

    The one who has ended pipelines, put higher royalties on oil from federal land, is fighting to stop leasing, has pledged to end our use of oil and gas and now having to go to Saudi Arabia and beg for more production when we are 127,000 B/D less than under Trump.


    Scoop: Biden advisers weigh Saudi Arabia trip for more oil
    President Biden’s advisers are discussing a possible visit to Saudi Arabia this spring to help repair relations and convince the Kingdom to pump more oil, Axios has learned.

    A matter of semantics, but the results are still the same.

    Product is down from pre-COVID what don't get here? Where did I ever say it is not higher than than that low? And it is only up slightly from the dip in spite of Biden and his attempts to shut it down. So stop bragging about "OH production is up a little from the pandemic lows"

    All I can do is hope that those 81 Million Soy Milk drinking Idiots that voted for Sleepy Joe are the worst hit by Inflation and these skyrocketing gas prices. We just got back from a nice 200 mile round day trip to the ocean and I just laughed at these High Gas prices, because I don't live paycheck to paycheck, but are keeping most Democratic supporting poor people off the streets.

    OK…where to start…..

    1. Biden didnt end ANY pipeline

    2. Royalty rates haven’t increase din 100 years, and Biden was ASKED to do that by the Department of the Interior

    3. He isnt “fighting” to end leasing. Like Jen said in her press breaifing…their are over 600 leases currently valid that the oil and gas companies aren’t using. WHY would they need more land ?

    4. Why are you denying facts ? TRUMP is the one who negotiated and SIGNED the deal to cut production with OPEC that is limiting the amount of oily today. TRUMP signed the 2 year deal that we are till under.

    YEP he si trying to get them to let us out of the deal TRUMP signed.

    You can have your own opinions, but you do not get your own facts

    We were "energy independent" in 2021 and so far in 2022 as well.
