Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler
Russia has America over a barrel — literally.

President Biden’s failed energy policies caused the United States to purchase 595,000 barrels of Russian oil per day.

This vulnerability needs to be addressed by producing energy here at home and becoming energy independent again.

Let’s go to some of the responses:

Time to follow Germany’s lead and focus on renewables instead of fossil fuels… which is what Biden’s infrastructure plan is about. So, which policies that you will vote for are to succeed?

Ms. Hartzler- what is your opinion on what the USA should be doing now in Ukraine? Do a no fly zone? Send troops? Stay completely out of it? Something else?

You’re another loyal servant of Big Oil.

Russian oil is not being imported by the US government but by private companies. Why aren’t you telling them to stop, telling them to stop exporting US energy resources and supporting expanded renewable energy development in the US?

Weird! and here I thought it was when the Covid economic crisis drove oil prices down to $25 dollars a barrel American producers closed up shop because they lost money at those prices. You are SO SMART Vicky! [….]

Your wishful thinking comrade

You have no idea what you are talking about Miss Home Economics teacher, so quit spreading misinformation. Be a real leader.

Fake outrage, Vicky. TFG sword-danced with the Saudi’s while they bombed Yemen to dust. Where was your outrage then? Where was your outrage when the U.S. invaded Iraq based on fake claims of WMD?
Russian oil is part of the same game you all have been playing for decades.

9,000 oil leases that are not being used right now. Why are you not questioning them???

Give it a rest “hateful Hartzler” you just want us to nix the paltry 10% of imports so it will raise gas prices and you can then vilify and turn it against
@POTUS later. If you really cared you’d be asking why the oil companies in the US limit their production instead!

Maybe Donald Trump should stop licking this dictator’s boots. He weakened our democracy & our standing in the world; opening the door for the vampires.

Thank you, @POTUS, for standing up to authoritarians.

678,000 jobs were added, and the unemployment rate fell to 3.8% in February.
Under President Biden, the economy has averaged a monthly gain of 582,000 jobs over the past 3 months. – U.S. Department of Labor, 3/4/2022
Why won’t you admit this is good news for America?
Politics?

“Россия” (Russia) – a variant of the Russian presidential flag.

Doing someone’s work for them, eh?

Useful.
