Joe Biden is in full-blown panic mode as his numbers get even worse heading into the 2024 elections.
That’s why his administration is doing all they can to deceive voters about the damage he’s done to the nation.
And The View audience was left stunned into silence after a Biden administration official told one massive lie on the show.
Gas prices are on the rise again, and some parts of the country are seeing average prices of more than $4 a gallon.
And the Biden administration’s disastrous economic actions aren’t done yet.
Even more price increases are on the way as gas stations begin the government-mandated switch to more “environmentally friendly” blends for the summer.
Under Joe Biden, gas prices hit record highs in the summer of 2022.
And the White House thought they were out of the woods on gas prices.
But the current trend is becoming yet another headache for his struggling re-election campaign.
With tensions rising in the Middle East between Israel and Iran, another major spike in oil prices is likely on the way.
Energy Secretary claims Joe Biden is obsessed with trying to lower gas prices
Department of Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm was recently dispatched to ABC’s The View to try and do damage control on the administration’s failed energy policies.
Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin pointed out that gas prices are rising nationally again.
“What is the administration doing to lower those prices, and should we be worried about the conflict in the Middle East contributing?” Griffin asked.
Granholm tried to blame the turmoil in the Middle East for the price increases caused by Biden’s policies.
“People may not be aware: Of course, oil is where you get your gas from, and it’s traded on a global market, and so if there is a conflict in, you know, the Strait of Hormuz that blocks the flow of oil, that impacts you — what you pay at the pump,” Granholm said. “The President is watching this. He’s obsessed with it, and so we’re going to be doing what we can.”
But the fact is, Biden has taken more than 100 actions, beginning on his first day in the White House, to wage war against American energy production.
And high gas prices are actually the goal of his extreme environmental agenda.
In fact, in 2021, Granholm burst into laughter during an interview on Bloomberg where she was asked about increasing oil production.
Granholm tells struggling Americans to buy expensive EVs
Granholm told The View audience they should pay an arm and a leg for an electric vehicle to escape the pain at the pump.
“If they switch over, if, you know, you’re in the market for a new car and you decide you want to look at electric vehicles, this is the time,” Granholm said. “Or hybrid, hybrid-electric.”
But even radical left-wing co-host Whoopi Goldberg didn’t buy it.
“What if you live in the projects?” Goldberg asked. “What if you don’t have a home?”
Granholm also explained that there’s currently not enough electric vehicle chargers, but said the administration was trying to boost their construction.
But a $7.5 billion program under Biden’s 2021 infrastructure bill – which promised to build 500,000 electric chargers – has only seen seven built in two years.
Granholm then told Goldberg that she didn’t seem convinced while she sat there with her head in her hands.
“I am convinced, but I do have questions because people are getting energy bills — electric bills — that are insane,” Goldberg said.
But, of course, the Biden administration doesn’t have any answers for Goldberg, or for rising gas prices.
