It is interesting that when gas prices go up, they blame Biden, but when they come back down they are silent.
When overall inflation is high they blame Biden, but when it comes back down they are silent.Gas prices may have gone down some under Biden, but when Trump left Office the national medium price of gasoline was $2.38 a gallon. Approximately a dollar less than the gas price under Biden today.
A reason why gas prices came down was Biden raided the Strategic Petroleum Reserve....
'Facing political pressure over the high gas prices around the country, the White House announced Tuesday that the federal government would release 50 million barrels of crude oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve in a coordinated move with other major countries. The US release is its largest on record.'

'Today, House Committee on Oversight and Reform Ranking Member James Comer (R-Ky.) and Subcommittee on Civil Rights and Civil Liberties Ranking Member Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) are continuing oversight of the Biden Administration's sale of U.S. oil reserves to Unipec America, a company operated by the Chinese Communist Party, and raising concerns that U.S. oil could be used by China to support Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Anarchist/left wing violent extremism, often referred to in United States government parlance with the catch-all term 'anarchist violent extremism' (AVE), has a long-standing history in the U.S. The political climate in recent years has intensified focus, interest, and controversy surrounding the activities of specific left-wing extremist currents. Despite this, there is a dearth of quality, impartial, and non-partisan research on these groups and the individual violent extremists
associated with them.
This paper attempts to situate AVE within the broader landscape of domestic violent extremist (DVE) threats facing the U.S. and chart the evolution of violent plots with a nexus to AVEs. A recent Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) joint report that reviewed significant domestic terrorism incidents in the U.S. between 2015 and 2019 found that AVEs were among the extremist groups 'presenting the greatest threats of violence.'1 Reviewing these incidents and charting the potential for future escalation of AVE- related attacks, this paper highlights three trends:
Violence committed by AVEs in this period was largely locally organized, event- driven, and/or opportunistic. However, individual AVEs inspired by the movement and its ideologies also planned mass-casualty terrorist attacks, predominantly against law enforcement, private property, and those they associate with opposing violent extremist groups.'

I cannot remember ANY president putting up with such hate and nonsense ever.
