The Keystone Pipeline that would carry tar sands crude from Canada for EXPORT to markets outside the US? Brilliant hot take!


Oh but it also does this! While it’s not in any way increasing US oil production.

Ugh. I distinctly remember right wingers emphatically insisting that Keystone was new technology, safe, and wouldn't leak or pose any risk to the environment.

All lies and bullshit.

I wonder why they’re not bragging on the tech now.

I also remember those pointy white hat Republicans implying that the people protesting against Keystone at Standing Rock were terrible things for wanting to protect their homes and sacred land. Turns out they’re not terrible, they’re prescient.

We all knew it was BS lies at the time. This makes me sick. And it is the first I've heard about this.

It would be nice if every Keystone executive who ever testified to that effect was tried with perjury. They know it will never happen, so they'll continue to lie

My Maga relatives say the reason prices are coming down is "Biden is decimating the strategic reserves!".

They’re allowed to get away with lying all the time.

Ha! Go back a few pages in these threads and you'll see all the MAGAs promising prices would be heading up in November once they ran through the reserves.

Did they finish Keystone XL while I wasn't looking?


Nothing happened with Keystone XL the entire time Trump was in office. Guess that was "Trump's war on the fossil fuel industry"

By the way, Keystone XL has very little to do with gas prices. Canadian tar sands oil is of poor quality, is a bear to refine, and isn't a good candidate for refining to automobile grade fuel. Most of that is ultimately headed for export after refining.

I’m not PP but I think they know that. I do as well. The point is that the frothy right keeps yammering on about Keystone XL as if it actually affects gas prices at all. 🙃


Just like how they bring up the southern border anytime the word 'fentanyl' comes up even though most of the fentanyl is coming through the ports, and not the border.

Republicans are fact-resistant creatures.


So Biden and the Democrats (since they still control Congress at the moment) are going to get credit for gas prices being lower than where they were a year ago (https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2022/12/08/white_house_to_go_on_offensive_against_gop_as_gas_prices_drop__148586.html). Right, Republicans? You're going to give the Democrats credit for bringing those prices down, right? Blame cuts both ways, knuckleheads.


They should get credit for having prices less than a dollar above Trump prices?

Biden did it without crashing the economy. Bonus points for that.

“Trump prices” when oil companies were paying people $10 to take a barrel? No. In a normal economy a year before the pandemic “Trump prices” were $2.84/gallon.

MAGAs like this always amaze me at the length and breadth of their stupidity.
It's almost like they're proud to show how dumb they are.

More than 30 states have lower gas prices now compared to last year. Thank god we have a Democrat in office!

How much more inflation will Americans be able to tolerate? Food and fuel are skyrocketing. Housing costs are skyrocketing. $7/gallon will be the straw that breaks the camel's back. I remember back during 2007 when gas got really expensive and there were tons and tons of problems with thieves punching holes in people's gas tanks. Brace yourselves for history to rest itself. What plans does Biden have? The federal reserve is asleep at the wheel doing nothing to control inflation and has singaled that they're going to do everything possible to prop the stock market up while regular Americans suffer. Biden ended the pipeline, which will look horrendous if gas hits $7/gallon. It is extremely frustrating watching prices at the grocery store, utilities, and to fill up the car go up and up and up.

This is also a consequence of adopting all of the moronic prescriptions by liberal academic economists who preached globalism like it was a religion and they we'd all be better off outsourcing our manufacturing because of some hocus pocus effects of comparative advantage. Yeah, look how well it stretching supply chains all over the planet has worked out now. Not only is it a massive national security risk they we rely on these stupid supply chains for everything, any disruptions send prices skyrocketing. We should have never gutted our manufscitng base because leadership listened to those fools.



Well, Chicken Little, you and your experts were wrong. Apologies accepted.
