Summary

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, President Biden has called for a gas tax holiday, something that Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi have called a gimmick since it does nothing to address increasing domestic oil production, which would offset the price. It's simple supply and demand economics, yet Biden refuses to allow any oil drilling on leased land controlled by the federal government. Sadly, Biden cowers to the Sierra Club and leftwing radical environmentalists to decrease production which drives up the cost and forces Americans out of their cars and into public transportation in the name of an environmental emergency, and the same will happen with single-family housing. Then, Biden continues to claim that inflation was caused by the war in Ukraine, yet the Federal Reserve chairman admits that inflation was high even before the war. The ruling class is incompetent and largely unreliable. Later, former Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum was charged with 21 federal indictments for wire fraud, conspiracy, and making false statements. Gillum denies any wrongdoing and has withdrawn from public life after being discovered unconscious from an overdose in a motel with a male companion. Afterward, Congresswoman Lauren Boebert calls in to discuss her re-election campaign. Boebert added that she has opposition but remains focused on serving her constituents in Colorado.  June 22, lauren boebert, boebert, Colorado, oil, gas, gas prices, gas tax, TRANSPORTATION, CARS, travel, lithium batteries, lithium battery, lithium, diesel, truckers, inflation, UKRAINE, PUTIN, Jerome powell, powell, Retirement, 401k, andrew Gillum, Gillum, establishment, gun control, gun, Ukraine, Russia Learn more about your ad choices.

Hello America, Mark Levin here, our number 877-381-3811, 877-3813811.

1:57.4

How come we didn't have all these drilling issues and gas issues and all the rest of it when Trump was president?

2:07.4

Which is why Biden and his team of morons have gotten together and keep blaming Putin.

2:15.4

So now Biden's come up with a brilliant idea. Let us suspend the federal gas tax for 90 days.

2:23.4

90 days. And by the way, Russia's selling more oil and gas than ever before making a fortune.

2:33.4

So even that's not working. So let's do it this way. In their own words, Obama at a campaign rally in April 2008 on a gas tax holiday.

2:49.4

April 2008, cut one go.

2:51.4

I know that we're having a debate right now about the gas tax holiday. I know how brutal this is on folks right now.

3:01.4

And I know they need relief, which is why I've offered a middle-class tax cut for every American $1,000 for working families that they can deal not only with gas prices but rising health care costs and rising grocery costs.

3:17.4

But for us to suggest that 30 cents a day for three months is real relief. That that's a real energy policy.

3:27.4

Means that we are not tackling the problem that has to be tackling. We are offering gimmicks. When we're offering the same thing, the John McCain's offering on the cheek. That means we're not presenting a truthful response to the challenges that we face in America.

3:47.4

We can do better than that this time.

3:49.4

Yeah, right. Now, compare that with Biden today at the White House. Cut for go.

3:57.4

I suspended the 18 cent gas tax, federal gas tax for the next 90 days. We can bring down the price of gas and give families just a little bit of relief.

4:07.4

I call on the companies to pass this along every penny of this 18-centre reduction to the consumers. There's no time now for profiteering.

4:19.4

There are a number of other proposals by Democrats in the House and the Senate. And I hope my call for action can help move those proposals for it as well.

4:27.4

But we can also cut gas prices even more in another way. That's why the second action I'm taking is calling on states to either suspend the state gas tax as well or find other ways to deliver some relief.
