Psaki Claims Rising Gas Prices Have Nothing to Do with Biden Policies, blames Putin

[Townhall] In Friday's briefing, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki struggled to find answers to reporters' questions about the rising cost of gas that's hit a fever pitch since Russia's invasion of Ukraine but has been rising steadily since President Biden took office last January.

"The reason why the price of gas is going up is not because of steps the President has taken," Psaki claimed. "They are because President Putin is invading Ukraine and that is creating a great a deal of instability in the global marketplace."

Psaki continued by saying the White House and Biden administration "are very focused on minimizing the impact to families" caused by rising gas prices. "If you reduce supply in the global marketplace, you are going to raise gas prices, you are going to raise the price of oil," Psaki then added, saying such supply reductions and subsequent cost increases are "something the president is very mindful of and focused on."

#1 When they tell blatant lies like that it destroys the credibility they need to govern. Here we have a major war being fought in Europe and people can't believe anything the government says about it. That's a recipe for a monumental catastrophe.

We get all this hype about freedom for Ukraine and bad, bad Putin and it wears thin. It sounds like all the bullcrap we've heard about all the other wars. I just hope they don't try to get us into the shit this time. I could not support that in the slightest. This was is between Ukraine and Russia. Stay out of it and stop trying to tell me who is right and who is wrong when it's really none of my business or Psaki's either.

#3 I agree don't get involved. On the other hand don't pay billions after billions to Putin for his oil. Oil pollutes the earth you know and allows Putin to fund wars. Without oil revenue he wouldn't be able to feed his army of conscripts.

#4 We can't believe anything our government allows us to hear or read. Photoshopped pictures, bullshit about bombing Babi Yar, lies about how the Russians are bogged down when they're advancing steadily every day

This is just wag the dog for the worst presidential administration in our lifetime
