Impeachment Must Be On The Table

Is President Joe Biden’s Alleged Request To Saudi Arabia An Impeachable Offence?

I believe so.

I will be honest, I do not trust the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, period. Unfortunately, I do not trust the Biden administration either.

In two years, the Biden administration has destroyed our energy sector, healthcare system, education system, Armed Forces, and has entered our country into a proxy war with Russia while using the Neo-Nazi regime in Ukraine as an excuse.

It has been reported the Biden administration begged the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and OPEC+ to delay their 2 million barrels oil cut until after the United States mid-term elections.

A statement issued by the Kingdom’s Ministry Of Foreign Affairs appears to suggest the same.

I do not know if this is true, but the Biden administration has been pretty quiet and has gone silent on the issue. Other than Biden kicking, screaming, and offering empty threats to the Kingdom, the United States government has gone on little offense.

I personally believe the Biden administration asked the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to delay the cut because they have nothing to run on. Everything that matters to the American people has been manhandled by the Democrats and more likely they will be destroyed at the ballot box on November 8th.

Since OPEC’s+ announcement, gasoline prices have gone up and all the Biden administration has done is blame everyone else for their own mismanagement.

If the Republicans take control of the House of Representatives it is imperative an investigation and, if necessary, impeachment proceedings be initiated against Joe Biden.

Asking a foreign country or a foreign institution to delay or advance an agenda to help a country with their internal politics is illegal in the United States.

It appears Joe Biden’s actions did just that and he will need to be held accountable for it.

Will the Republicans have the guts to follow the constitution and hold this president accountable?

I am not so sure, but I am hopeful.

Do Not Blame OPEC

Blame The Biden Administration

As Americans keep complaining about the surge at the gas pump after OPEC decided to cut oil production output, they are blaming the wrong culprit.

OPEC is not to blame, after all, OPEC is a business organization and as a business, is in it to make money. They are looking out for their members, unlike Joe Biden who is not looking out for the American people.

Democrat voters were elated when Joe Biden announced he was getting rid of oil production in the United States. They thought everything would remain the same and our energy consumption needs were going to be taken care of without it.

Although Biden did not shutdown oil production the amount of oil produced under his watch has been significantly lower.

In 2021, the United States was producing 11.9 million barrels of crude a day. In 2020 was closer to 11.28 million barrels.

In comparison, 2019 produced a record high of 12.3 million barrels a day. It is clear oil production has decline under the Biden administration.

The Energy Information Administration is claiming oil production is going to rise to 11.91 million barrels per day and it will reach a record high of 12.85 million barrels by 2023.

How did the EIA figure this out is beyond me. These figures do not make sense given the current state of oil production in the United States. We will have to see, but even Common Core mathematics cannot reconcile the figures.

As Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor-Green stated back on May 17, 2022, “Since Biden took office he cancelled the Keystone pipeline, released half of our strategic petroleum reserve, is canceling oil and gas leases, and it is waging a proxy war with Russia with sanctions that line Putin’s pockets and empty ours.” “Dems are blaming price gouging.”

You may or may not like the congresswoman, but she is 100% right in her assessment. After all, gas station owners make an average of 0.03 cents per gallon of gas sold. Gas stations make their money inside, selling merchandise.

Gas station operators are trying to earn our business and that is why you notice the difference in gasoline prices from town to town and station to station.

When the Biden administration claims gas station operators are price gauging, folks, that is a complete lie.

Gasoline is a commodity and gas station operators are only following the market value. Unfortunately, when the demand is higher than the supply, prices are going to go up as demand continues to grow.

Under the Trump administration the United States was an energy producer and exporter. Under the Biden administration, the United States has become a beggar.

Unlike former President Trump, Joe Biden has a poor relationship with OPEC countries and that is why his begging has been ignored.

In trying to mitigate this self-inflicted wound, the Biden administration has released over 180 million barrels of oil from our Strategic Petroleum Reserves with little impact at the pump.

In my opinion, this release is a serious national security issue. The SPR is for times of emergency as when we faced the oil embargos of the 70’s, and not a piggy bank to pull from for political expediency.

As the Biden administration continues to kiss up to the Green Energy lobby and fails to invest in our energy needs, Americans will continue to feel the pain at the pump.

As inflation continues to skyrocket and the dream of electric cars is unaffordable to most Americans, do not blame OPEC for taking care of their own, blame your government for not taking care of you.
