Biden is just an asshole.
And ethanol sucks.

Biden Infuriates Environmentalists, Oil Refiners By Allowing More Ethanol In Gas To Lower Prices

In his latest attempt to ease the relentless pain at the pump, President Biden has pulled off something remarkable. He's managed to infuriate climate activists and the oil and gas industry, all while jacking up demand for America's most vital agricultural commodity: corn.

Ya that's going to put a huge demand on batteries running all that large farm equipment required to plant, cultivate, fertilize and harvest all that corn.

And isn't that particularly stupid given that all that wheat and all that corn grown in Ukraine and Russia are now excised from the world grains market? Not only is this going to make food more expensive in the U.S., it's unnecessary since farmers here are positioned to make some righteous profits over (at least) the next two years.

You know what that tells me with only 22% disapproving? 78% would vote for him again. If the commies are good at anything, it's loyalty to the party/regime.

The commies have the black vote on automatic thanks to LBJ.

It's uncanny how they never learn the lesson and will continue to vote the block.
Black voters especially are hard headed that way.

In today's "we'll pay you to stay home so you don't get COVID" government, that's not only limited to black voters. There's a loooooooooooooot of white trash runnin' around this country with their hand held out. I have a 3rd? cousin that is a PRIME example. Has stayed "single" all these years on purpose, pumped out 2 or 3 government latch kids, and hasn't worked a day in her life since about 1978. Just sayin'...

Oh...and yeah. LET'S GO BRANDON!

Which party consistently year after year is willing to hand out checks to this minority for doing absolutely nothing...other than showing up to vote? Not hard at all to define why black voters continue to vote the way they do. Unfortunately, they don't grasp what they're really doing...continuing to assure their demise, and ours.

Fertilizer is becoming very expensive. Very real shortages are happening. Corn isn't going to be cheap, and so the ethanol won't be either. Putting resources into growing corn is going to make other crops even more expensive to grow.

This is another feel-good plan that is only going to make things worse.

Higher percentage of ethanol means less fuel efficiency, increased wear and tear on vehicles, more pollution, and increase in food prices. Brilliant move.

You're a Russian asset if you try to blame Biden for inflation

These people are ridiculous (and I think panicky)

The DNC War Room meanwhile went on the offensive claiming that Republicans 'don't have a plan' to lower prices.

'The same Republicans who are breathlessly talking about inflation STILL don't have a plan to lower prices,' the War Room wrote on Twitter.

Hey, assholes. We were doing just fine before you jerkoffs took over.

"Putin price hike." Sure, bitch.

Alan, out of curiosity, how long does it take between purchasing oil and actually taking delivery of it? I'm not familiar with oil futures, transportation lag times, etc. I suppose the oil you're unloading could be pre-Putin ban?

Meanwhile, I'm working with California oil and gas producers who are looking to pair down operations because the state and feds make life (business) miserable.

Once Biden's order banning Russian crude was given, there was a 45 day period for any ships that were loaded already or in the process of loading or maybe even contracted to load to pump off their cargo. So we are still in that grace period.

Unbelievable. Ruin your engine to save 10 cents a gallon.

Biden announces emergency waiver on summer ethanol ban to combat rising gas prices

President Joe Biden on Tuesday announced new steps his administration is taking to address rising gasoline prices across the country, including emergency measures to expand biofuel sales, countering rising energy prices amid Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

The President announced that the Environmental Protection Agency will issue an emergency waiver permitting year-round sales of E15 gasoline, which contains a 15% ethanol blend, on a trip to Menlo, Iowa, where he visited POET Bioprocessing, a biofuels plant that specializes in the creation of bioethanol.

“E15 is about 10 cents per gallon cheaper than E10. Some gas stations offer an even bigger discount than that,” Biden said. “But many of the gas stations that sell it … are required to stop selling it in the summer, but with this waiver, on June 1, you’re not going to show up and see a bag over the pump with the cheapest gas. You’re going to be able to keep filling up with E-15 and it’s going to solve a whole problem.”

The sale of E15 gasoline is usually prohibited from June to mid-September because of air quality concerns. Under former President Donald Trump, the EPA issued an order allowing permanent year-round sales of the biofuel blend in 2019, but the order was overturned last year by the US Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit.

In his remarks, Biden appeared to tie rising fuel costs directly to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine, saying that Americans’ budgets shouldn’t depend on whether a dictator “commits genocide” in another country.

“Your family budget, your ability to fill up your tank, none of it should hinge on whether a dictator declares war and commits genocide a half a world away,” Biden said, later referring to the rising fuel costs as the “Putin price hike.”

Biden has previously stopped short of calling what is underway in Ukraine a genocide and his aides have said it doesn’t yet rise to the level.

In Iowa, the President acknowledged that the new waiver is “not going to solve all our problems,” when it comes to rising fuel prices, “but it’s gonna help some people. I’m committed do whatever I can to help.” He also said, “There’s more we need to do to bring down the prices for American families,” citing his previous executive orders to lower food prices and increase market competition.

Tuesday’s E15 announcement, a senior administration official said, “is distinct from” his predecessor’s efforts to expand ethanol sales in that it’s “based on the current circumstance, which is a fuel supply emergency.”

Per White House estimates, E15 sales could save consumers 10 cents per gallon on average, while reducing reliance on foreign fuels. As part of Tuesday’s announcement, the EPA will also take steps to facilitate the expanded use of the biofuel, including outreach to states and modifications to E15 fuel pump labeling at gas stations across the country.

During Monday’s news briefing, White House press secretary Jen Psaki signaled that suspending the summer ban on gasoline with higher blends of ethanol was on “the menu of options” the administration was considering “to ensure that the supply in the market meets the demand, thus bringing the price down.”

The move follows Biden’s announcement last month of a historic release of oil from US reserves, including 1 million barrels a day from the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve for the next six months as part of a “wartime bridge” to increased oil production as US and global oil efforts ramp back up after the coronavirus pandemic.

“The President believes that the actions of a dictator half a world away should not impact what families pay at the pump here at home,” the White House said in a fact sheet announcing the action that was shared with CNN. “Today’s actions also reinforce the Biden-Harris Administration’s goal of achieving real energy independence and commitment to a long-term strategy to spur smart development and adoption of sustainable, homegrown fuels.”

Still, the administration is stopping short of sanctioning Russian energy exports, with the senior official instead pointing to “a set of actions that we think have generated severe impact on the Russian economy.”

“We’ve also in the United States, through the President’s action and with support on a bipartisan basis, banned all energy imports from Russia to the United States. We understand that other countries are in a different position. We are obviously in a strong position – as a net energy exporter – to do that, though it did have real, real effects and price impacts the President has now been working to mitigate,” the official told reporters Monday.

The official continued: “But we have taken a strong set of steps when it comes to the effects on the Russian economy, and we’re going to continue to work with our partners and allies, as we have, to continue building on that.”

This story has been updated with additional developments on Tuesday.

His visit here today was a real headscratcher for even the liberal media in Des Moines. Why visit a state he handedly lost in 2020 that has only gone more Republican since. The best thing that happened in Iowa today was a bird pooped on Biden during his speech and I got to take my kids to see the motorcade blaze past. The new POTUS limos are pretty snazzy. He is evidently going to visit 25 states in the next 2 weeks all of a sudden. I imagine the flights and vehicles for that logistics would burn through whatever fuel savings he would get from E15 which nobody actually uses.

Not to mention, and though it won't impact everyone this way, it would play absolute havoc with my 20 year old truck.
