Commerce Secretary Throws Up Hands At Gas Hike Problem.

 Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo (who is doing very well for herself) claims President Biden has exhausted all options in trying to roll back gas prices:

"Unfortunately, that is the brutal reality," Raimondo said in response to CNN's Kate Bolduan saying there's not much action left that President Joe Biden can take.

She continued, "You know, this is, in large part, caused by (Russian President Vladimir) Putin's aggression. You know, since Putin move troops to the border of Ukraine, gas prices have gone up over $1.40 a gallon, and the President is asking for Congress and others for potential ideas. But as you say, the reality is that there isn't very much more to be done."

Of course, Biden's "options" included going to Saudi Arabia and Venezuela with his tail between his legs and begging them for help. Also, prices were rising before Russia attacked Ukraine (remember when the Biden Administration was blaming "supply chain" and "inflation" on these types of things?).

Reason #6,835 why Democrats will most likely lose big in this upcoming mid-terms, but that's fine with them because it's easier to be the minority party that promises to make things better than to be the party in charge that allows things to get worse.
