Biden Asks FTC to Examine Oil, Gas Companies’ Role in High Gasoline Prices - WSJ

In a Wednesday letter to FTC Chair Lina Khan, Mr. Biden alleged that there is “mounting evidence of anti-consumer behavior by oil-and-gas companies.”

C’mon man!

Keystone XL, Green New Deal, clean energy tax credits bonanza, the new Dept. of Energy Green venture capital fund, constantly bashing oil and gas, suspending permitting for drilling on Federal lands….

The anti-consumer behavior is being perpetrated by the Biden Administration.

Worth the drive.

Glasgow’s Climate of Unreality - WSJ Opinion

“If [Mr. Biden] were asking them to boost their production over five years, I’d quit,” Mr. Kerry told reporters, by way of trying to square this circle. “But he’s not. He’s asking them to boost production in this immediate moment.” Lord, make us green, but not yet.

Great line.

Steve Bannon Surrenders to FBI to Face Contempt Charges - WSJ

The indictment marks the first such criminal case for the Justice Department in decades. Attorney General Merrick Garland has said it underscored the agency’s commitment to pursuing equal justice regardless of politics.

Does it, tho?

I’m no Bannon fan, but this does not have the optics of Justice.

Apple Imposing Strict Terms on U.S. States for Digital IDs in Wallet App - MacRumors

The company requires states to independently maintain the systems used to issue and service credentials, hire project managers to respond to Apple’s inquiries, verify IDs, perform quality testing to ensure that digital IDs meet Apple’s requirements, “prominently” market the feature, “proactively” offer digital IDs whenever a citizen gets a new or replacement card, and encourage state and federal government agencies to widely adopt digital IDs.

I’m interested in this idea, having my license on my phone, but I hope my state looks at these terms and tells Apple to pound sand. Completely inappropriate for a private technology to dictate terms to a governmental agency over a program that benefits the private company’s bottomline, at the full expense of the taxpayer.

Even St. Joseph needs a few friends.

As with every issue, Biden claims to be a helpless bystander on inflation | Washington Examiner Opinion

Just as with immigration , Afghanistan , and unemployment , Biden and his allies want us to think that he is nothing but a bystander. It can never be his fault or the fault of the policies he has pursued and implemented. The world is simply out of his control. It’s OPEC that isn’t boosting production, not Biden’s failed energy policies. It’s those oh-so-complicated supply chains that are to blame, not Biden’s COVID-19 stimulus and unemployment policies.

It’s a bizarre argument coming from the leader of the free world. Especially when many of these issues are demonstrably a result of his decisions.
