The White House continues to try its best to distract Americans from the impact of their harmful energy policies. The White House understands that the public is unhappy with the price of gasoline and they are trying everything they can think of to blame somebody, anybody, but themselves. 

We have chronicled Secretary Granholm’s desire to blame OPEC for high oil prices. Then a few days ago, she noted that the real problem is Wall Street . The White House has also been blaming oil...

The draft agreement from COP26 in Glasgow, Scotland calls on parties to accelerate phasing out “unabated” coal consumption and John Kerry, COP26 participant and U.S. climate envoy, claims the United States won’t have coal by 2030. In an interview, Kerry stated, “We will not have coal plants.”  Yet, coal generation in the United States is expected to increase its share of electric generation to 23 percent this year—up from 19 percent last year —and regaining its 2019 share. This...

The trillion-dollar boondoggle will do nothing to fix the actual problems facing America today and those which voters are most concerned about:  the supply chain crisis and rocketing inflation.

On Monday, a group of 11 U.S. Senators wrote a letter to President Biden complaining about the high price of gasoline. Like the Secretary of Energy, these Senators get some basic facts wrong about the oil market in the United States and around the world. In this case, the Senators are wrong because the United States has been a net oil importer this year.   

The Senators correctly note that high prices burden families. They write: 

Last week, Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm erroneously claimed that “OPEC controls more than 50 percent of petroleum supply.” This week she was back on TV with new inaccurate claims. For example, on State of the Union on CNN , she erroneously claimed, “OPEC is a cartel, and it controls over 50 percent of the supply of gasoline.” She also stated that “OPEC is controlling the agenda with respect to oil prices.” While the United States it the world’s largest oil producer and...

Congratulations are in order on the passage of the so-called bipartisan infrastructure bill. Not to President Joe Biden, whose own priorities barely feature in the legislation, but to another Joe, the one from West Virginia (though we would be remiss if we didn’t also congratulate Senator Krysten Sinema, the Arizona Democrat who worked hard to attract GOP support for the bloated bill). The legislation, which finally passed the House months after passing the Senate, was really Senator Joe...
