    Texas has had major blackouts for years before Biden, is he still responsible? The blackouts they have had were not from renewable sources.

    The main cause of the massive disruption, by far, were the frozen components leading to the outage of thermal plants that heat water and convert the steam to electricity. The vast bulk of those thermal plants are powered by natural gas. In addition, the South Texas Nuclear Plant was thrown out of service Monday as a result of frozen pipes, which cut even further into the Houston area’s electricity supply.

    Texas also is not on either of our major power grids, they have their own. Texas is run by right wing shitheads so fuck them, let them suffer.

    Just where will the oil companies drill that they can't now? There aren't any. Ignorant fucks such as yourself haven't a clue about the oil business.

    The US has been steadily reducing imports and increasing exports since 2005....but feel free to keep sucking Trump's micro-penis, dude.

    Odd how so much more was being produced when Trump was president, isn't it?

    They're a corporation with fiduciary responsibilities to maximize profit. They'd ship as much oil as they have from the US to Europe.
    Exxon will not sell anyone oil for a penny less than the global price of oil set by OPEC.
    And if Exxon can buy oil for $50 per barrel when it costs them $60 per barrel to drill for it, they will stop drilling and buy it overseas. That is why the US is not dependent on oil from elsewhere. Just because we may have imported more than we produced does not mean we are dependent. The instant oil prices rise enough that it is profitable for oil companies to produce, we won't need a drop from elsewhere.

    Yup! Do you notice that when the ignorant are put in their place they respond with nothing but a stupid fucking insult?

    Agreed. These idiots are just sucking up the bullshit being fed to them by global corporations. It was the same with Big Tobacco back in the day.

    He isn't. US oil production is driven by the global price of oil and not the president. US oil companies have countless drilling leases they are not using for reasons that have nothing to do with Biden.
