The hand thing is very weird but don’t those helicopters have jet engines as well? That would explain why the rotors aren’t moving and I don’t hear the blades

Biden sucks but can we at least hate on him for legitimate bullshit? The stock market is absolutely not "down". The opposite, actually. The president has 0 control over gas prices. No wars have been started. And no gun ownership laws have been passed yet.

But other than that...

By the way, the "tax hike coming to us all" was baked into Trump's 2017 tax plan.

Gas prices have been going up since November and December. One of the reasons is due to people traveling again. Isn’t that what we wanted post pandemic? No more lockdowns? Kind of expected to see prices rising.

I haven’t seen any new wars (as of yet). And we haven’t publicly acknowledged bombing Syria since February 25th. We might even make it to a month if a day laborer in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria or Yemen is lucky enough.

If I'm not mistaken gas prices always increase before Summer.

Arizona sheriff says Biden border crisis worse than Obama years: 'Like the Wild West'

An Arizona sheriff said Wednesday that the current border crisis is worse than the Obama years, as DHS indicates that the migrant surge at the U.S.-Mexico border is expected to hit a 20-year high.

Mark Lamb, a law enforcement officer in Pinal County, told "Fox & Friends," that it was "ridiculous" and "unfair" that illegal immigrants, many of which he claims have not been tested for coronavirus, are able to enter the country while schools and businesses in some parts of the country remain closed.

"[During the Obama administration] it was like the Wild West out there in the desert on the south end of our county and we’re back to that again," Lamb said.

"Almost every time we go out we’re finding 20 people. Last Wednesday, we had 49 apprehensions in my county. So this is just as bad as it was back in the Obama days, probably worse and on target to be worse."

But, Lamb claims that the halting of Trump’s border wall has allowed the Mexican cartel to smuggle people and drugs through gaps in the now-abandoned border construction sites in alarming numbers.

In the month of February, southern border migrant encounters are up 28% from the month prior and a staggering 174% from the same time last year.

The President can definitely affect gas prices.  If he signals a desire to slow down U.S. production of oil or  if he creates instabilities in the Middle East then that definitely does it

He’s also thrown out the idea of raising the federal gas tax. Granted he hasn’t done that yet but it’s likely going to happen.

Ok. He hasn't done that.

So he hasn't affected the gas prices.

Good to know.

If Biden decides to drop a nuke in Iraq, gas prices will go up.

It's almost as if you can't believe just every random thing pulled from a Facebook post.

I heard something related to the Keystone pipeline. Was that false as well?

That's real news, but it won't affect gas prices for at least a year or two.

Well, stimulus hit the bank account, $2800 that we really don't need.

He actually has.  His campaign included a lot of green policies and he already shut down Keystone. 

He also bombed Syria

Some critics of Biden have said that his cancellation of the Keystone XL pipeline early in his presidency would quickly result in higher gasoline prices. But we previously found that, for several reasons, that’s not the case.

For starters, the pipeline wasn’t operating yet. “Revoking it does nothing to today’s balance” of supply and demand, said Mark Finley, a fellow at the Center for Energy Studies at Rice University.

Any price impact from the pipeline decision, or from other Biden policies to limit fossil fuels, would be “years down the road,” said Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy, a website that tracks gas prices.

In addition, most of the oil to be carried by the Keystone XL pipeline would have been exported, meaning U.S. customers should see little direct effect on prices.

Experts said it was conceivable that Biden’s policies could eventually affect gas prices. But any impact wouldn’t be detectable in the recent gas price changes.

That's because they use that really good summer blend of gasoline.
