Just Saying
Mr. Whopper
Everyone it’s said appreciates a good story. Almost nobody big liars.
Here is why this administration appears to love big fairy telling. It’s just one example of many supported by your biggest MSM outlets.
So does that by proxy, much like the Ukraine war American taxpayers are being forced to subsidize, make them big liars too?
Biden has a multi-decade history of twisting, to use a kinder term, the truth. Something his media lackeys now blow off owing to his mental challenges.
Just since he took his present position he has been called out on numerous whoppers that have been not only recorded but substantiated.
Liars in general but especially big ones count on most of us not keeping up with what they are lying about. Anohter ploy is deflection like in this case “gouging,” AKA price gouging, a popular one of politicians and bureaucrats keep readily handy depending on the situation.
“On June 21 Biden said, “This idea that they don't have oil to drill and to bring up is simply not true. This piece of the Republicans talking about Biden shutting down fields is wrong.” This piece of the Republicans talking about Biden shutting down fields is wrong.”
“On June 22, Biden said, I know my Republican friends claim, we're not producing enough oil and I'm limiting oil production. Quite frankly, that's nonsense.”
“And on November 2, Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm tweeted, “Disinfo about @POTUS' energy agenda is being used to scare/mislead Americans while industry cashes in. The facts are clear: This Admin outpaced the previous Admin on crude oil production + oil/gas well approvals while also making historic investments in a clean energy transition.” Source
But tonight, Biden has effectively admitted that he, Energy Secretary Granholm, and others in his administration have been lying.
“I have documented the lies Biden has told about his energy policy for the last five months. Others have as well. The Wall Street Journal reported in September that Biden had leased fewer acres of public land and waters offshore for oil and gas drilling than any other administration since World War II.
“But the story was misleading because those approvals were entirely for drilling on private and state land, which are outside of the administration’s control, something Politico acknowledged 12 paragraphs into its article.
“Biden's quote, which is on par with his "outrageous" coal plant closure comments, hardly needs more commentary but we will note that it comes just days after the White House unveiled its "brilliantly cunning" plan of promising energy execs that it would buy all the oil they had to sell at $72 to refill the SPR that Biden single-handedly drained to crush US energy companies. Maybe the same oil execs will be just a little skeptical when it comes to anything that comes out of this old man's mouth going forward.”
