    that tweet that goes "every Biden statement is like 'i wonder who the president is, i'd like to have a word with that guy'"

      There's a Politburo of manipulators behind the scenes writing Biden's scripts. We would know who they are if we had a functional investigative journalism class. But we don't. Instead we have professional empire apologists, who do nothing but speak truth to the powerless.

    "Stop raising the prices at the pump or I'm going to ask you very nicely to 'stop' again!" :biden:

    :maybe-later-kiddo: He's doing everything he can. Biden doesn't control gas prices! You should learn how the economy works." :maybe-later-kiddo:

    :yes-honey-left: "Can we stop giving the oil companies subsides then? :yes-honey-left:

    :maybe-later-kiddo: :vote: this November :maybe-later-kiddo:

      Dumbest thing about this take from online libs is Nixon instituted price freezes on before. There is a legal precedent that biden can follow if he wants to. It was upheld by the court. He literally can do something, he just chooses not to

        The act empowering Nixon to do that expired in 1974, so unless there's a way to bring it back without Congress I don't think he can do it.

        Of course, he could try to just do it anyway and see how that goes

          He could just do it and say "lol who's gonna stop me" when anyone questions him

          trump proved that pretty well

    It is actually comical how pathetic he is. The whole democratic party is an op and I refuse to believe otherwise.

      I think the buzzword is "capital discipline." Oil companies could increase production, but they know that will lower the price and hurt their profit margins. It's collusion without needing to collude.
