Media "Biden has few options to combat rising gas price...", ignoring fact that his own policies have caused this!

The seemingly-innocuous post header below shows how the Lying Mainstream Media shapes how you view situations, without you even noticing.  

Inflation means the price of things goes up.  Almost every consumer agrees inflation is a bad thing.  And when a Republican is president, the Media agree, and blast him for it.  Ah, but when Democrats are running things, it's Different.

On biden's first day in office he cancelled the Keystone XL pipeline, which was already partially built and would have brought 600,000 ,barrels of Canadian oil per day to U.S. refineries.  Biden also ordered a halt to issuing drilling permits, and stopped leasing offshore tracts for oil exploration.

As anyone who knows f-all about economic could have predicted, the price of oil immediately began to rise.  And since gasoline is, refined from crude oil, gasoline prices also began to rise.  Since almost every American uses gasoline, that kicked up inflation.

As soon as a few experts noticed, the Media immediately began writing stories designed to convince Americans that they should ignore inflation.  Those stories pushed one or more of the following Narratives:

  • Inflation is really due to people having so much money that they're all buying too much.  So inflation is a sign of a booming economy!  So cheer, citizens!
  • Inflation is totally normal, and nothing to be alarmed about.
  • If prices really are a bit higher, it's absolutely NOT caused by the administration's policies!

Take a look: 

Note the underlined words:  "The White House has acknowledged it has limited options to address the problem."  But in reality, the sharp rise in gas prices was absolutely CAUSED BY biden & handlers' moronic day-one executive orders, which locked in a big drop in the supply of oil in the U.S.  

Worse yet, they knew the executive orders they prepared for biden to sign would have exactly that effect.

But by using "has acknowledged" it leads readers away from the truth--that biden's executive orders are responsible.  The phrasing makes readers believe the Dems are admitting a truth they're powerless to change, when in fact they're lying their asses off.  In reality the regime as scores of options available to increase the supply of oil and gas in the US., but they don't WANT to increase those things--because they want people to be gradually forced out of gasoline-powered cars and into electric or public transit. 

If that's too subtle for ya, try this quote from CNBC:

For months the Biden administration has vowed to use every tool at its disposal to curb rising energy prices that are contributing to inflation across the country, but there aren't many tools available to the White House.

Utter horseshit.  Rescind the shutdown of the Keystone XL.  Re-start drilling permits and leasing.  "OH NO, we can't do THAT!"  But didn't CNBC say your admin "has vowed to use every tool at its disposal to curb rising energy prices..."?  Someone's lying.

Truth is, Democrat "strategists" WANT gas prices to rise--provided they can convince voters that the Dems didn't cause it.  And with the Media's crucial help, that's always worked before, so...
