Biden administration restricts oil and gas leasing in 13 million acres of Alaska's petroleum reserve

The U.S. oil industry’s top lobbying group says Biden administration rules restricting oil and gas leasing in 13 million acres of Alaska’s petroleum reserve are “misguided.″ The American Petro...Comment on Facebook
This administration is doing everything in its power to cripple this nation and our energy independence! Great job Pete! 🇺🇸⛏️🇺🇸 ⛽️ 🇺🇸
Just stop, Pete. You are continually looking for anything you can to whine about. Whine but never solve a thing. The area they are talking about isn’t producing oil. Read the article. “The decision by the Interior Department doesn’t change the terms of existing leases in the reserve or affect currently authorized operations”. What are you doing on this month’s vacation? Why are we paying you nearly $200k per year for a parttime job? Did you see this? “Another Republican representative, Jake LaTurner of Kansas, announced today he will not run for reelection. He joins more than 20 other Republican representatives heading for the exits.” Seems that even people in his own party are sick and tired of the childish gamesmanship that Pete and his cronies are engaging in. It’s way past time for the Republican Party to find itself. I’m thinking they might want to find someone effective to put up in place of Pete in D8. Our hockey boy isn’t cutting it.
Can't drink oil.
“No Republican knows that oil production under Biden is higher than ever.” Steve Bannon
The only war i see is you and Trump and friends encouraging violence against other Americans with fake news and lies.
Joe Biden is leading a war on Americans! Full stop!
Remember the 1000 permits that oil companies have that they don’t need. Congressman Pete Stauber receives oil money and turns his back on prestige wilderness areas because of it. Pete Stauber also knows we are producing more oil than any country in the world.

I wonder if Putin Pete Stauber is going to support Moscow Marge in ousting the speaker if aid to Ukraine passes
There is almost $100 billion in total foreign aid and approximately $0 to secure the southern U.S. border. This is a “Republican” bill that Pete Stauber voted for
Pete Stauber, House of Representatives, helps to overwhelmingly advanced the globalist foreign aid bill. Gracias por nada you piece of $h!t

Minnesota Congressional Delegation Calls for Hearing on Hennepin County Attorney’s Handling of State Trooper Murder Case
knsiradio.com
(KNSI) - Some Minnesota congressional delegation members have sent a letter to the House Judiciary Committee C...Comment on Facebook
She has a hit list of officers from when she was a defense attorney. She hid an expert’s testimony that the officer did the right thing.
April 18, 2024 (Thursday) Heather Cox Richardson I will not spend the rest of 2024 focusing on Trump and the chaos in the Republican Party, but today it has been impossible to look away. In Trump’s election interference trial in Manhattan, Judge Juan Merchan this morning dismissed one of the selected jurors after she expressed concern for her anonymity and thus for her safety. All of the reporters in the courtroom have shared so much information about the jurors that they seemed at risk of being identified, but Fox News Channel host Jesse Watters not only ran a video segment about a juror, he suggested she was “concerning.” Trump shared the video on social media. The juror told the judge that so much information about her had become public that her friends and family had begun to ask her if she was one of the jurors. Legal analyst Joyce White Vance noted jurors’ fear for their safety was a concern normally seen only “in a case involving violent organized crime.” Nonetheless, by the end of the day, twelve people had been chosen to serve as jurors. Tomorrow the process will continue in order to find six alternate jurors. It is a courtesy for the two sides at a trial to share with each other the names of their next witnesses so the other team can prepare for them. Today the prosecution declined to provide the names of their first three witnesses to the defense lawyers out of concern that Trump would broadcast them on social media. “Mr. Trump has been tweeting about the witnesses. We’re not telling them who the witnesses are,” prosecutor Joshua Steinglass said. Merchan said he “can’t blame them.” Trump’s defense attorney Todd Blanche offered to "commit to the court and the [prosecution] that President Trump will not [post] about any witness" on social media. "I don't think you can make that representation," Merchan said, in a recognition that Trump cannot be trusted, even by his own lawyers. An article in the New York Times today confirmed that the trial will give Trump plenty of publicity, but not the kind that he prefers. Lawyer Norman L. Eisen walked through questions about what a prison sentence for Trump could look like. Trump’s popular image is taking a hit in other ways, as well. Zac Anderson and Erin Mansfield of USA Today reported that Trump is funneling money from his campaign fundraising directly into his businesses. According to a new report filed with the Federal Election Commission, in February and March the campaign wrote checks totaling $411,287 to Mar-a-Lago and in March a check for $62,337 to Trump National Doral Miami. Experts say it is legal for candidates to pay their own businesses for services used by the campaign so long as they pay fair market value. At the same time, they note that since Trump appears to be desperate for money, “it looks bad.” Astonishingly, Trump’s trial was not the biggest domestic story today. Republicans in Congress were in chaos as members of the extremist Freedom Caucus worked to derail the national security supplemental bills that House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has introduced in place of the Senate bill, although they track that bill closely. The House Rules Committee spent the day debating the foreign aid package, which appropriates aid for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan separately. The Israel bill also contains $9.1 billion in humanitarian aid for Gaza and other countries. A fourth bill focuses on forcing the Chinese owners of TikTok to sell the company, as well as on imposing sanctions on Russia and Iran. At stake in the House Rules Committee was Johnson’s plan to allow the House to debate and vote on each measure separately, and then recombine them all into a single measure if they all pass. This would allow extremist Republicans to vote against aid to Ukraine, while still tying the pieces all together to send to the Senate. As Robert Jimison outlined in the New York Times, this complicated plan meant that the Rules Committee vote to allow such a maneuver was crucial to the bill’s passage. The extremist House Republicans were adamantly opposed to the plan because of their staunch opposition to aid for Ukraine. They wrote in a memo on Wednesday: “This tactic allows Johnson to pass priorities favored by President Biden, the swamp and the Ukraine war machine with a supermajority of House members, leaving conservatives out to dry.” Extremists Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and Thomas Massie (R-KY) vowed to throw House speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) out of the speakership, but Democrats Tom Suozzi of New York and Jared Moskowitz of Florida have said they would vote to keep him in his seat, thereby defanging the attack on his leadership. So the extremists instead tried to load the measures up with amendments prohibiting funds from being used for abortion, removing humanitarian aid for Gaza, opposing a two-state solution to the Hamas-Israel war, calling for a wall at the southern border of the U.S., defunding the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), and so on. Greene was especially active in opposition to aid to Ukraine. She tried to amend the bill to direct the president to withdraw the U.S. from NATO and demanded that any members of Congress voting for aid to Ukraine be conscripted into the Ukraine army as well as have their salaries taken to offset funding. She wanted to stop funding until Ukraine “turns over all information related to Hunter Biden and Burisma,” and to require Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky to resign. More curiously, she suggested amending the Ukraine bill so that funding would require “restrictions on ethnic minorities’, including Hungarians in Transcarpathia, right to use their native languages in schools are lifted.” This language echoes a very specific piece of Russian propaganda. Finally, Moskowitz proposed “that Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene…should be appointed as Vladimir Putin’s Special Envoy to the United States Congress.” Many congress members have left Washington, D.C., since Friday was to be the first day of a planned recess. This meant the partisan majority on the floor fluctuated. Olivia Beavers of Politico reported that that instability made Freedom Caucus members nervous enough to put together a Floor Action Response Team (FART—I am not making this up) to make sure other Republicans didn’t limit the power of the extremists when they were off the floor. The name of their response team seems likely to be their way to signal their disrespect for the entire Congress. Their fellow Republicans are returning the heat. Today Mike Turner (R-OH) referred to the extremists as the Bully Caucus on MSNBC and said, “We need to get back to professionalism, we need to get back to governing, we need to get back to legislating.” Derrick Van Orden (R-WI) told Juliegrace Brufke of Axios: "The vast majority of the Republican Party in the House of Representatives...are sick and tired of having people who...constantly blackmail the speaker of the House.” Another Republican representative, Jake LaTurner of Kansas, announced today he will not run for reelection. He joins more than 20 other Republican representatives heading for the exits. After all the drama, the House Rules Committee voted 6–3 tonight to advance the foreign aid package to the House floor. Three Republicans voted nay. While it is customary for the opposition party to vote against advancing bills out of the committee, the Democrats broke with tradition and voted in favor.
Attorney Moriarty works for ALL the people. Not just big business and poorly trained cops. For once we have a County Attorney for the People, who has a long record of being fair, and the Patriarchy powers that be and their supporters can't accept it. Times are changing good ol boys so you better get used to it.
Look what’s going on in manhattan , they are charging President Trump with a democratic Judge and 12 Democratic Juror’s. These Democrats using our Justice System to target anyone who goes against their Agenda. This is not only absurd but completely Corrupt .!
But it's ok for trump and his puppets to call the incarcerated insurrectionists from Jan. 6 "hostages" and downplay the violence used against the Capitol police. Make up your mind Pete. Do you support all law enforcement, or just those who weren't tasked with trying to protect the Capitol and all the members of the Senate and House of Representatives there to certify the electoral vote count.
PETE: Go back to DC and keep out of Minnesota issues. You don't have any authority here.
Minnesota's war/attack on Law Enforcement continues.
Pete . please Warn on Conservatives on Democratic Facebook that Democrats are Targeting Conservatives on Facebook. They will be kicking us off for the rest of the year.!
No one weaponized the government as much as Don the Con Trump. Putin Pete supported the insurrection
You endorsed an adjudicated rapist, with a long history of committing fraud, that is currently facing 88 felony criminal charges.

Perhaps rein in some corporate greed and bust up some monopolies... you know, legislative stuff that we voted you on to do instead of a pissing contest between parties.
What is the Republican solution for this?
great! i get another cost of living adjustment to my social security?
Come on over to my house Pete and see if you can find where I am spending an extra $ 1000,00 a month.
Hey Pete, no more money to Ukraine. America first!
Credit cards are to blame.. If you haven't got the cash.. You have to cut back on spending. Spending is what is causing the inflation not the president. No comments necessary. It is all fact not fake.
Russia and Saudi Arabia are intentionally cutting back oil production. Gee, I wonder who they are trying to help and who they are trying to hurt with higher gas prices? Meanwhile, the US is pumping record amounts of oil under Biden. Record. Grocers and food producers are reporting record profits.
Here are the approval polling numbers on how Americans feel about Biden on several issues.

Yep . Democrats are rich and educated they can afford Bidenomics . I will never forget , they were so Rich in 2020 they shut down small businesses across Minnesota and destroyed working families .!
We know, Pete. Bidenomics is killing the average working American.

Oh do tell, Pete. $1000 more a month? What are you buying with that? Lying again?
Can't afford you voting to send Another 14 billion to Israel to kill more women and children.
Government thieves use fake numbers to calculate inflation.
Oil companies making record profits and pouring the money into stock buy backs. If you think gas prices are high talk to the CEO’s of the oil companies. Don’t listen to Putin Pete Stauber

Very true !!
Pete's alternative is to support Trump, the family values guy who was found financially liable (since it was too late to convict him criminally) for fingerbanging a complete stranger in a department store, and then bragged on tape that he can "even grab [women] by the pussy" because of his fame. Trump's idea of making America great again is to take hundreds of thousands of dollars from his supporters and funnel the money into his private businesses.

Thanks for sharing Pete 👍
Encounters meaning what? Arrests? People in general? Will you please include the last 20 years before this and/or a link to the exact source page so we understand what defines an encounter and how these numbers compare to years past. Thanks.
It’s all a part of their big plan to destroy America!
So why didn’t you vote for the bipartisan immigration bill…it would have passed until trump told you not too!
Republicans should have accepted a bipartisan Senate compromise aimed at reducing the number of migrants who come into the U.S. illegally.
Oh, liberals save your breath about this weak border bill in the House Chambers. Pete and his colleagues passed HR2 late last year which is a very strong border bill. I am glad Speaker Johnson separated the Senate border bill and put forth the aid proposals for Israel and Ukraine. It'll be interesting what the Senate will do with this bill without the border in it. We will see what becomes of this bill. It’ll be interesting if Biden reverses the executive orders he put on the southern border and actually does something meaningful on the border.
Well it looks like Putin Pete Stauber is going to get a chance to vote on a bill to provide aid to Ukraine. So we will get a chance to see whether he backs democracy or Putin. My money is on his backing Putin
How about working to close the border and while you’re at it, vote on no money to Ukraine. America FIRST!

😡
Yet, your Speaker/puppet won't bring a border bill supported by the border patrol union to the floor for a vote. As long as you support that inaction, your complaints ring hollow.
Pete had an opportunity to solve the border issue and looked the other way. And now he is pointing his crooked little finger, fanning the flames of his failures, and blaming those who worked for a real solution. It pays to look at what Pete ISN’T talking about in days like this. Here is the news that we should be addressing. Our representative is a big part of this problem and he is dragging D8 into the fracus. Tell us where you stand, Congressman Pete Stauber wapo.st/3vMlQ39
Hey Pete! What can you do about quickly putting together a bill of legislature making it a felony for protestors/rioters to block a public roadway like these terrorist supporters did in San Francisco and Chicago on Monday? There needs to be big change on how this is handled, (or not handled as it currently is). These sick minded people need to be put in prison for a minimum of 5 years so they don't do it again and they need to be made an example of. Thank you Pete! 🇺🇸

Pete Stauber is a Christian so believes abortion should be illegal. Well Leviticus 24:17 says anyone who kills anyone should be killed. That would include any soldier or cop that ever killed anyone.

It's all about replacing voters in red states. It's all about power and staying in power. Democrat leadership and wealthy liberal donors want control and power. It's not about people. Do you think Democrat leadership gives a damn about the welfare of these illegals they placed in many cities across our country? All they want is their vote. Look at African American communities. The only time they discuss black issues is during an election year. Look at black communities in cities run by Democrat mayors and states governed by Democrats. They have done squat to help improve their communities but they surely do rely on their vote. As long as Dems keep the poor and people of color addicted to government entitlements they will hold this above their heads in exchange for votes. No different when it comes to illegals.

High interest rates, rising inflation: The economy still isn’t normal
www.washingtonpost.com
The improbable picture seems to guarantee that the Federal Reserve won’t be ready to lower interest rates in the next few months.Comment on Facebook
That’s all Biden is good for, taking your money away and help raising the prices on everything.
No Pete, "Bidenomics" is not what is keeping interest rates up, "Bidenomics" actually has led to a strong jobs report, reduced inflation annual average since 2022 (8.0) and 2023 (4.1) to current 2024 (3) mo. average (3.26), and NO recession (that was long predicted) www.usinflationcalculator.com/inflation/current-inflation-rates/. That's pretty damned good for all of us. According to the article you posted, the bad news is that the average cost of rent, energy, and car insurance went up marginally over this time last year (NOT since Biden took office). With regard to rent, one of the major drivers of high rent (and the lack of ability for young folks to purchase homes) is the lack of housing stock. We boomers are remaining in our homes bec we do not want to pay more for less house, particularly with the high cost of a mortgage. And us remaining in our homes, has ripple effects throughout the housing economy. Mortgage rates also play a role, and those are controlled by the fed. Energy costs, though down since Biden took office, go up and down in response to global instability and are particularly driven by the unrest, these days manifested in the middle east and the unlawful incursion of Russia into Ukraine. Vehicle, and for that matter home insurance costs, are driven by the cost of those commodities as well as climate change. As to the interest rates, those are controlled by the Fed, not the Biden Administration. The high rate appears to be the result of 2 major factors, the breaking down of the model the fed uses to adjust the interest rate and the inability of the fed to use a scalpel rather than a club to control inflation. The current model is premised on an assumption that as long as the jobless rate is held down, inflation will remain low. That assumption was tested during the Trump administration when jobless rate was very low and inflation remained low. However after COVID, the jobless rate remained low and inflation increased dramatically. Now with a continued low jobless rate, inflation dropped again. It appears that the relationship between joblessness and inflation that the fed uses is inadequate. So Pete, please stop posting headlines without thinking about the content. Maybe take a few economics courses (Perhaps Jen Schultz could help you out with this, she understands economics after all). Then treat us with a well reasoned argument for a genuine proposal to address your perceived grievances.
When fuel costs are high, the price of everything is high.

Pete Stauber opposes abortion because he is Catholic. Well the Bible in Leviticus 20:10 says that adulterers both the man and the woman should be put to death. It is well known that Donald Trump is a serial adulterer, so either Pete thinks Donny should be put to death or he just cherry picks the bits of the Bible that he believes in
