Last night the US Senate voted on the Roe V. Wade Codification bill and it did not pass. 49 - 51. This bill was much more then just codification, it went out and changed several state laws without the states being able to debate it or fight it. However, it did not pass. Elizabeth Warren then immediately went out to the press and demanded the the filibuster rule in the Senate be removed. You have to understand that this rule allows either side to fight a bad bill. It has been around for ages. If taken away it will not allow a debate on a bill and it will go straight to vote. Yes, government may be slow at times, but when you take away debate on a bad bill, then we as Americans are in trouble. So, I am happy that it was defeated and we move forward. Remember, whatever you see in the Congress and Senate is pure politics, trying to get their base of voters going. Dirty rotten politics.
Also, Biden yesterday canceled a few oil leases. Why? Because they were in legal lawsuits by environmental groups. There are 22 of these large number of leases that are in legal limbo. But his politics says that the oil and gas companies are not producing so he is taking them away. Don't believe the President on this one. It's all politics. Now you are asking the question, if a barrel of oil goes down then gas prices should come down? No, not all the time. Biden's energy policy has created so much stress on oil refineries that many have shut down. We are operating with fewer refineries and the cost of refining has gone up. Thus, gas prices goes up - we are producing less fuel, less inventory. Again, it points back to Biden and his policies. He has stood in front of the American people and lied and said it is not his policies. Yes, it is his policies. Some refineries had to close because the Biden energy policies made it to costly to produce gas, they were loosing money on them. Again, remember all of this is dirty rotten politics of a President that doesn't care if you are paying more for gas that raises the costs on everything. He doesn't care. It's all politics to him.
