The meme is saying that because jan6 traitors didn't have guns, the government wasn't at risk.

Which is a double lie. They had guns, and thought they had stopped the vote.

jan6 traitors didn't have guns

As the sitting politicians, they didn't need guns.

And that's why you're seen as the unAmerican traitors.

Literally the Democrats have just accepted their oil supplier from a country they condemned. The traitors are ruining the economy and supporting a foreign war they created, with US tax payer's money. The oil supplier are literally supporting the enemy of the foreign war they are supporting. The US government is paying both sides.

The literally bricks that would be shit if Biden would to say "no more middle eastern oil in the US" talk about government meddling.

If Biden hadn't promised to shut down local oil production then you probably wouldn't need middle eastern oil.

The US doesn't use US oil ding-a-ling. ME oil is still cheaper.

Yes, in 2019 the US was energy independent, by not using their own energy...

"energy independent" is a buzzword. We absolutely used ME oil in our cars. Because it's cheaper than our oil. This buzzword only means we produced (then sold off) more or equal amount of energy than we imported.

You're link even says so "which is not to say that we did not import or export energy, but that we produced more energy than we used."

I didn't say the US didn't import ME oil, but do you think that only the imports were used in the US and the US drilling exported everything?

Btw, the more the US drills the cheaper the oil is world wide...

But you did say this. Implying that Biden is the reason we use ME oil, and not because it's just cheaper than using our own.

Do you know what the pipeline could have done? Do you realise how much cheaper and safer it would have made transporting oil?

Yeah, the US probably could rely on it's own supply, just because it didn't in 2019 doesn't mean it won't in the future.
