Biden lifted oil sanctions on Venezuela

We knew it was coming but crazy to see him go from begging OPEC to see him propping up yet another dictatorship with one of the worst human rights records in the world.
Biden War On Energy Helps China, Saudi, & Venezuelan Dictators
Also, Biden publicly begged the Saudi government to produce more oil during the summer and two weeks ago granted immunity to the prime minister, a son of the king, and a man who US and foreign intelligence services say killed a Washington Post reporter.
Biden Caves To Saudis Rather Than Pump More Oil
Imagine if he wasn't waging war on drilling here in the USA.
I seem to recall us being energy independent under that mean orange man.

To some, he was “that mean orange man” BECAUSE we were energy independent. They couldn’t stand it
Prop up dictators, but no mean tweets…WORTH IT!
Wankers.

Wait until you realize they are apart of OPEC.

The illegitimate president's energy policies are great for our global competitors.

Do you think that changes the point of my thread which is we shouldn't be depending on Saudi, OPEC, Venezuela, etc?

It’s corruption to the core. Rigging elections have consequences.

In the grand scheme of things, is better to get more oil on the market? I work in the oil field so I tend to be a little biased.

About to have a top 5 year in us production, trump begged Saudis for more oil in I think 16 and 17, trump also got very cozy with ksa and his son in law got $2B from the Saudis after he left the White House but that’s different.

You can’t argue that Trump’s results with the Saudis and Biden’s results with the Saudis are the same with a straight face, sorry.
The Saudis made a point to humiliate Biden in front of the world.

Yea I remember when the Saudis treated the President like an emperor instead of a little bitch.

So what you're saying is that Trump got the Saudis to give us cheap oil and secured $2 billion from them while Biden was denied cheap oil and forced to give the Saudis something in exchange while emptying the SPR and still having to beg a south american dictator for more oil?
That seems like a big difference to me.

From a fawning favorite of the Democrat Party The Nation (not even they can make this pig look pretty):
quote:
On Tuesday, at a White House event promoting vaccination, President Joe Biden was asked by a reporter, “What’s your reaction to the Saudis on oil urging the U.S. not to use the reserves?” Biden paused. The silence lasted long enough for a second reporter to start asking another question. Then Biden smiled and addressed the first reporter, saying, “Get your Covid shot.” Biden’s non sequitur stands as a fitting symbol of his administration’s policy toward Saudi Arabia, which now stands exposed as a ridiculous mixture of cynicism, wild rhetorical shifts, and incompetence.
quote:
Biden scurried to Saudi Arabia this July in an embarrassing effort to mend fences—a visit memorialized with that mortifying photo of Biden and bin Salman making a fist bump. Biden came out of the trip apparently convinced that he had a commitment from the Saudi government to ramp up oil production in order to offset the shortages caused by Putin’s war. But, in a move the Biden administration interprets as a betrayal, the Saudi government spearheaded an OPEC Plus move to actually cut back oil production.
quote:
A lengthy New York Times report surveying the saga concluded, “What happened over the last half-year is a story of handshake agreements, wishful thinking, missed signals and finger-pointing over broken promises.” The newspaper added that Democratic lawmakers who were shown the diplomatic record as part of congressional oversight were “left fuming that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman duped the administration.”
quote:
But the Saudi government hardly seems worried. Rather, the extreme cockiness displayed by Saudi officials suggests that they think they have the upper hand, with the United States needing the free flow of Saudi oil so much that the Biden administration will have to swallow any indignity.
quote:
Bin Salman’s staff has leaked contemptuous comments about Biden. The Wall Street Journal reports that the crown prince “mocks President Biden in private, making fun of the 79-year-old’s gaffes and questioning his mental acuity, according to people inside the Saudi government. He has told advisers he hasn’t been impressed with Mr. Biden since his days as vice president, and much preferred former President Donald Trump, the people said.”
quote:
Saudi interference in domestic politics should be a scandal, but it’s unclear how much of an impact it’ll have—even on Democrats, the victims in this story. Saudi government was so essential a linchpin to American strategy in the Middle East that not even the current spat will change policy.

Yeah but I'm sure they are excellent stewards of the environment...unlike the US.

OPEC is going to continuously decrease oil production to maintain price. Those countries depend on oil and covid rurally phucked them financially so they have to fix that. It’s called basic economics.

Underage Venezuelan girls might smell nice to him.
