Biden Sends 5 Million Barrels of U.S. Oil to Europe, Asia Despite Soaring Gas Prices

The U.S. has allowed more than 5 million barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to be exported to Europe and Asia, a move that contradicts President Biden’s statements about trying to bring down the cost of soaring prices at the pump.

The exports are part of a broader and historic release of 1 million barrels per day through October from the reserves, one of several efforts by Mr. Biden to blunt high fuel costs that have had minimal impacts.

Phillips 66, one of the country’s largest oil refiners, has shipped roughly 470,000 barrels from a reserve storage site in Texas to Italy, according to Reuters. Atlantic Trading & Marketing, part of French oil company TotalEnergies, exported more than 1.1 million.

The outlet reported that U.S. crude from the reserves was also bound for the Netherlands, India and China.

In total, Mr. Biden plans to release up to 260 million barrels of oil from domestic reserves from October 2021 through October 2022. There were roughly 618 million barrels at the end of September 2021. The reserve is expected to be depleted to less than 400 million, the lowest since 1984.

The average price for a gallon of regular gas was $4.78 as of Wednesday, according to AAA. It has come down slightly in the past several weeks from its previous high of roughly $5 per gallon, but costs remain far above that of a year ago when it was $3.13.

Concerning Percentage of Americans Don’t Believe Bible Is God’s Word

Mainline American churches long have been in decline. And there have been a number of actual civil wars among congregations and divisions that have resulted – often over social issues facing the nation such as the LGBT agenda.

Now the reasons, or results as you choose, are being seen: Only 20% of Americans see the Bible as the actual Word of God. A full 29% call it “fables” and “legends.”

The biggest portion, 49%, say it is “inspired” by God but it is NOT to be taken literally.

The results of the Gallup polling say the 20% who believe the Bible actually is God’s Word is at a record low.

That’s down from 24% the last time the question was asked, in 2017, and about half what it was in 1980 and 1984. (Read more from “Concerning Percentage of Americans Don’t Believe Bible Is God’s Word” HERE)

Highland Park Parade Shooting Suspect Threatened to Kill His Family in 2019: Cops

The suspected Highland Park mass shooter once tried to commit suicide, then threatened to “kill everyone” in his home while hoarding a huge stash of knives months later — yet was still able to legally buy rifles and pistols afterward, officials acknowledged Tuesday.

Authorities revealed that Robert E. “Bobby” Crimo III, 21, had legally purchased at least five firearms — including the AR-15-style rifle he allegedly used in Monday’s massacre — after his two troubling interactions with law enforcement in 2019.

Officials said cops were called to Crimo’s home in April 2019 after receiving a report that he had attempted suicide a week earlier.

Officers spoke to Crimo and his parents, but the matter was handled by mental-health professionals at time, said Lake County Major Crime Task Force spokesman Christopher Covelli at a news conference. . .

“A family member reported that Crimo said he was going to kill everyone and Crimo had a collection of knives,” Covelli said. “The police responded to his residence. The police removed 16 knives, a dagger and a sword from Crimo’s home.” (Read more from “Highland Park Parade Shooting Suspect Threatened to Kill His Family in 2019: Cops” HERE)

‘I Don’t Know’ Ranks Higher Than Abortion In Poll Asking What’s Important To Voters In 2022

The recent overturning of landmark abortion case Roe v. Wade may have inspired dozens of protests, angry op-eds, and heated cable news debates — but a new poll released Tuesday suggests that one of the Democrats’ pet issues won’t even move the needle for voters come November.

According to the most recent Monmouth University poll, only 5% of those interviewed said that abortion was an important issue to them ahead of the midterm elections. Economic issues drove most of the responses from the 978 adults polled between June 23 and June 27, and some 6% said they didn’t know which issue was most important.

RealClearPolitics Executive Editor and co-founder Tom Bevan shared some of the data, tweeting, “More from Monmouth: biggest concern facing families right now: inflation + gas + economy + bills/groceries = 63%. Next highest: ‘Don’t know’ @ 6%, ‘Other’ and Abortion tied @ 5%, All the rest <3%.”

Nearly half of those polled cited either inflation (33%) or gas prices (15%) as their primary concern — and another 15% cited the overall economy (9%) or regular household bills and grocery costs (6%) as primary issues.

The White House Won’t Discuss Biden Voicemail on Hunter’s Laptop

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre refused to discuss a 2018 voicemail from President Biden that was recovered from a laptop that belonged to his son Hunter — further undermining Biden’s claim that he never discussed foreign business deals with his son.

“Why is there a voicemail of the president talking to his son about his overseas business dealings if the president has said he’s never spoken to his son about his overseas business dealings?” Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy asked Jean-Pierre at her regular briefing Tuesday.

“Well, first I’ll say that what the president said stands. So if he — that’s what the president said, that is what stands,” Jean-Pierre replied.

“He’s leaving a voicemail about a New York Times article concerning Hunter Biden’s business dealings and he says, ‘I think you’re clear,’ ” Doocy interjected. “How is that not him talking to his son about his overseas business dealings?”

“We’re not, from this podium — I’m not going to talk about alleged materials from the laptop,” Jean-Pierre replied. (Read more from “The White House Won’t Discuss Biden Voicemail on Hunter’s Laptop” HERE)

Pfizer Plans To Profit From COVID For Years To Come

Pfizer has already profited billions of dollars from the COVID-19 pandemic, and it plans to do so for years to come via annual vaccinations and sales of its antiviral pill Paxlovid.

The company doubled its revenue from 2020 to 2021, bringing in more than $81 billion, and also gained a large foothold in the American regulatory process, according to Kaiser Health News. CEO Albert Bourla and other top executives have said they plan to continue taking advantage of the COVID-19 market for the foreseeable future.

“Hopefully, we could be giving it annually and maybe for some groups that are high-risk more often,” Bourla told investors earlier this year, referring to COVID-19 booster shots and vaccines tailored to specific variants. “Then you have the treatment [Paxlovid] that will, let’s say, resolve the issues of those that are getting the disease.”

Some patients have experienced issues with “rebound” infections with Paxlovid, cases where they begin experiencing stronger symptoms again after completing their series of the antiviral pill. That won’t stop Pfizer from selling millions more doses though, executives said.

“People are going to get out there,” the president of Pfizer Biopharmaceuticals Group, Angela Hwang, said in May. “We know with all of that, infections are going to increase, and that’s the role that Paxlovid can play.”

Historic: 88% Say US on ‘Wrong Track,’ Biden Not Helping

The number of Americans struggling to make ends meet has soared “double digits,” and most blame Washington and President Joe Biden, according to the latest poll socking the liberals’ agenda just months before the midterm congressional elections.

In a survey full of depressing firsts, the headline from the new Monmouth University Poll found that a record 88% believe the country is headed in the wrong direction, the worst on record.

“This marks an all-time low for this question going back to 2013. The prior low was recorded in May of this year at 18% right direction and 79% wrong track,” said Monmouth. . .

“The number of Americans who are financially struggling has increased by double digits in the past year as inflation and gas prices top the list of problems faced by the nation’s families,” said the poll analysis. “More than 4 in 10 Americans (42%) say they are struggling to remain where they are financially. This is the first time since Monmouth started asking the question five years ago that the number topped 3 in 10 – the range in prior polls was 20% to 29%,” it added.

A Woke Employee Decided to Stop Working Over Dobbs Decision and the Consequences Were Dire

. . .Journalist Katie Herzog took screenshots of one such person who decided to stop work for the cause. The recent Supreme Court ruling in the Dobbs case has overturned Roe v. Wade, causing a massive meltdown in liberal America. The full name was posted, but Herzog said the traction the tweet was receiving made her conscience act up, so she deleted the original tweet, which was a hilarious three-part act.

The man, who described himself as a “queer brown man,” decided to just not work. He was in mourning. He was employed by Universal Music Enterprises and was quickly fired. All this was posted on LinkedIn, so I don’t know why Herzog had a conscience attack. He wanted all of us to know what happened to him:

America’s Largest Nurses’ Union Calls on Congress to Legalize Abortion up Until Birth

National Nurses United, the largest nurses’ union in the United States, released a letter Tuesday endorsing legislation that would force all states to allow abortion at any point before birth.

The letter calls on senators to pass the Women’s Health Protection Act (WHPA), which would almost entirely prohibit states from regulating abortion. Critics of the bill have dubbed it the “Abortion on Demand Until Birth Act,” as it would make late-term abortions legal in every state.

Per recent polling, the vast majority of Americans would disagree with the WHPA’s policy implications. Seventy-two percent of Americans support banning abortion after 15 weeks, which would be illegal under the WHPA, and roughly half believe in banning abortion after six weeks. Only 10 percent of Americans support legalizing abortion up to birth.

Under the WHPA, in order for any regulation on abortion access to be legal, legislators would have to prove that the limitation both “significantly advances the safety of abortion services or the health of patients” and that “the safety of abortion services or the health of patients cannot be advanced by a less restrictive alternative measure.” (Read more from “America’s Largest Nurses’ Union Calls on Congress to Legalize Abortion up Until Birth” HERE)

2024: Media Try to Push Out Biden?

The corporate media have asked the White House to end press restrictions on who is and is not allowed to attend big events and ask questions.

These fake journalists are so sleazy and transparent that you have to laugh.

For the past 18 months His Fraudulency Joe Biden has been in office, the corporate media have said nothing about Biden using the China Flu to restrict access to big press avails.

Worse still, for 18 months, Biden has almost always called on “reporters” based on a pre-screening process from his staff. He uses an actual list from his staff, something I have never seen before.

Worst of all, for 18 months, the left-wing lapdogs in the corporate media said nothing, protested nothing… (Read more from “2024: Media Try to Push Out Biden?” HERE)
