Amid record gas prices, Biden snubs oil CEOs for wind execs

Steven Nelson  |  June 23, 2022  |  6:02pm


The White House on Thursday faced a barrage of questions about whether President Biden is doing enough to address record gas prices after he skipped a summit with oil executives and instead met with wind-industry leaders.

“When I think environment, I think jobs,” Biden told a group that included five wind-industry CEOs in the White House Roosevelt Room — shortly after a summit nearby that Biden refused to attend with seven oil CEOs and Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm.

“We’re about to build a better America,” Biden said at the wind-power meeting, which included Granholm, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland and Govs. Phil Murphy (D-NJ) and John Carney (D-Del.).  .  .  .

.  .  .  “Why did the president stop by the wind executives meeting? Why didn’t he spend some time with the oil executives as well?” Associated Press reporter Aamer Madhani asked White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.

Jean-Pierre defended Biden’s meeting with wind executives as “part of his schedule.”  .  .  .

.  .  .  In 2021, wind power comprised just 3.3% of US energy production, according to the US Energy Information Administration.

CEOs at the wind-power meeting with Biden included Liz Burdock of the Business Network for Offshore Wind, David Hardy of Ørsted Offshore North America, Robert Blue of Dominion Energy, Jeffrey Grybowski of US Wind and Lars Pedersen of Vineyard Offshore.  .  .  .

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

I hope the entire oil industry in tandem declares quiet war on pedo joe and the entire left wing GND cabal. 

This dementia stricken mf'er still doesn't understand the how much of society is controlled on how we are able to navigate around the block or the globe.

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

Yep, am sure my Governor Greg Abbott is enthusiastically endorsing Joe.

Abbott was receiving the Wind Energy Award one week prior to the catastrophic winter storm where zero windmills in Texas were turning and millions impacted by no electricity, even though the award is supposed to be for people who use wind energy to support themselves.
