White House quits asking Saudis for more oil after verbal dust-up with top official: report

[FoxNews] The United States has reportedly stopped asking Saudi Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. Fifteen of the nineteen WTC hijackers were Saudis, and most major jihadi commanders were Saudis, to include Osama bin Laden. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman quietly folded that tent in 2016, doing terrible things to the guys running it, and has since been dragging the kingdom into the current century...
to pump more oil to combat market disruption from Russia’s war with Ukraine as the relationship between the U.S. and the oil rich kingdom is said to have hit a new low.President Joe Biden
...... 46th president of the U.S. The very model of probity, except maybe for abandoning Afghanistan......
’s national security adviser Jake Sullivan brought up the 2018 killing of Saudi journalist beloved martyr of journalism Jamal Khashoggi
......who was simultaneously a very well paid Washington Post columnist and a long time propagandist for the Moslem Brotherhood and Al Qaeda — he died while on the Qatari payroll, but previously wrote at the behest of then-Saudi intel chief Prince Turki al-Faisal......
in a meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman
...Crown Prince and modernizer of Saudi Arabia as of 2016. The Turks hate him, so he must be all right, despite the occasional brutal murder of Qatar-owned journalists. As crown prince, Moe has quietly jettisoned his country's policy of trying to impose its religion on the rest of the world...
which angered the crown prince to the point where he told Sullivan never to mention it again and to forget about Saudi Arabia increasing its oil production, according to a Wall Street Journal report on Wednesday,

That’s what the subtle types call diplomacy. Well done, Jakey!

The report states that the Biden administration (aka the Wilmington comorra)

...the collection of boodlers, grifters, hangers-on, and self-proclaimed experts affiliated with the Biden Crime Family. Entrusted with an entire nation as the result of a suspicious election, they set about happily implementing stuff they absorbed in college, all of which blew up and splattered the rest of us...
has since asked Saudi Arabia to increase production as gas prices soar in the United States amid Russia’s war with Ukraine and the conversations have gone nowhere.

A senior U.S. official told the Wall Street Journal that the White House has now stopped asking for more oil production from Saudi Arabia and now asks only that the country avoid actions that hurt U.S. interests in Ukraine.

File under: Govt of Saudi Arabia

#1 Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman shouted at Biden's NSA Jake Sullivan when he started talking about Jamal Khashoggi and said he would not help the U.S. by pumping more oil when they met in September

Everyone remember come Mid-terms the LSD's know we have plenty of OIL waiting to be pumped here in the USA. But they have taken every opportunity to halt pumping, refining, and delivery of it.

Under their "RULE" Gas has gone from $2.12
to $3.69+ a gallon, Food prices have gone up 1/4 to 1/3 in cost and our dollar is worth 8.54% LESS than a year ago.

But the LSD's solution is IMPORT other Nations' costly OIL, where there are FAR LESS Environmental protections and a 100x's greater likelihood of Oil Spills, Environmental Pollution in the delivery process

It also seems they could care less about driving up US Gas, delivery, and Food prices. ALL OF WHICH are seriously hurting the lower-income working wage earners?

So IF we vote based on facts and our wallets and not their politically spewed BS, they are no longer in control come 2024.

#7 Talked around who is in charge and led with Kashoggi?

Wow.

To those new, this is the team which called for up to and including the dissolution of the Saud Government over the death of their, uhem, "News Associate".

Perhaps a bit butt-hurt that Saud's SNL skit with Brandon had Kamela actually competent? That's what I was laughing at. Hardball, gonna play some hardball. Yeah hardball. Hardball.

#8 How Not To Do Diplomacy or, Exercises in Futility

Lecture and insult the Chinese in your very first meet & greet

Destroy any remaining influence you might have over OPEC and oil price stability through pointless insults directed at your only Arab ally

Encourage a puppet regime to demand the impossible - surrender of Russia's most important military base and membership in NATO - and then walk away, refusing to deter the puppet regime's enemy or even pay any attention to him

Leak your classified intelligence all over the world - but refuse to engage with the president of the country that is threatening an invasion

Insult all the other major nations you need to persuade to join you. Call their leaders "shaky" when they declare they'll do what's best for their people

Destroy the world's economy and make your own people poor as a means of getting back at your adversary

#10 I believe most people would do the green thing if it is not overly expensive and probably do better in the long run than knee-jerk green solutions that just create the next environmental problem.

I'm confident we'll do alright when the green movement is humiliated and made a pariah for a century or more and can't wait for that to start.

#11 It's certainly a good summary of the Moscow line, not that I have any sympathy for Biden.
