White House eyes reducing Russian oil imports
By Morgan Chalfant - 03/04/22 03:54 PM EST


President Biden is considering steps to reduce U.S. imports of Russian oil, the White House said Friday, as bipartisan support in Congress for a ban on the imports grows amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

“We are looking at options we could take right now to cut U.S. consumption of Russian energy, but we are very focused on minimizing the impact to families,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki told reporters during a briefing Friday afternoon. “If you reduce supply in the global marketplace, you are going to raise gas prices.” 

Psaki declined to explicitly lay out the specific steps that Biden is considering. Bloomberg News reported Friday that the White House is considering a ban on U.S. imports of Russian crude oil in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.


Psaki noted that Biden administration officials Brett McGurk and Amos Hochstein have been in talks with global suppliers about alternative sources of energy amid the crisis in Ukraine. McGurk and Hochstein recently traveled to Saudi Arabia for talks with officials there. 

“He’ll consider and continue to discuss with his team other steps we could take domestically,” Psaki said, referring to Biden.

Biden massive cuts of domestic oil, forcing energy dependency, then says we will cut foreign imports too.  Biden really does want to ram $10:00 a gallon gasoline down our throats with Putin giving Biden the excuse to, with a heavily damaged economy by democrat spending.  Biden and Putin are more at war with the American economy, than Putin is with the war on the Ukraine.

The Russians are not just gong after oil the world depends on, but also seizing critical nuclear power stations Europeans also depend on.  Hitler would have been so proud of such totalitarian war aggressions.  Putin, soros, biden many well be on their way to one government world dominion!  I knew when democrats appointed Czars in Americas government, some thing stunk to high heaven.  Energy will rule mankind with an iron fist, Putins fist.  And the invasions of Russian conquests will continue, right Neville  chamberlain Biden?
Biden/Putin phonetically so similiar,eh?
