Biden Threatens Oil Companies
Record high gas prices are hurting Americans, and now Biden is threatening to use a potentially authoritarian overreach of power.
From Fox Business. President Biden may resort to using emergency powers if American oil companies don’t increase output at their refineries, the president told oil CEOs in a series of letters Wednesday.

Biden’s statement blames oil companies for running “historically high profit margins” even as Americans experience surging gas prices. Biden has recently faced criticism for a lack of executive action aimed at curbing inflation.
“There is no question that Vladimir Putin is principally responsible for the intense financial pain the American people and their families are bearing,” Biden wrote. “But amid a war that has raised gasoline prices more than $1.70 per gallon, historically high refinery profit margins are worsening that pain….”
Biden sent letters to Marathon Petroleum Corp, Valero Energy Corp, ExxonMobil, Phillips 66, Chevron, BP and Shell….
Biden’s letter does not offer a timeline for when his administration would resort to emergency powers, threatening only to do so in the “near term….”

Dear Heavenly Father, in these days, I am continually reminded of the oath our officials pledge as they are sworn into office. This oath has been corrupted as many speaking these words do not bear faith or allegiance in defense of the Constitution or their constituents. Joe Biden is being led instead of leading. Those is opposition to the efforts to destroy this nation talk among themselves but little correction is apparent. The man of lawlessness is loose in America. Dear God, please bless us. We who love The Lord Jesus, our Savior, are appealing to You in His Name. We are pleading the Precious Blood of the Lamb to be richly applied to all areas in need…EVERYWHERE AND EVERYONE. We cannot correct the path we are on but we can kneel before You, the Make of Heaven and Earth, in repentance and shame. Father, forgive us and heal our country. I ask this for Your Glory and our good. In HIS NAME I pray, Jesus the Christ, Jesus The Messiah, Jesus who is returning to judge the quick and the dead. Amen
‘I ( ), do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.’
Let me get this straight–Biden wants the oil companies to increase production at their oil refineries, but won’t let them drill for oil? Sounds like Pharaoh demanding the Israelites produce the same quota of bricks but no longer providing the straw. We all know how that turned out for Pharaoh.
Lord, come swiftly to judge and deliver! Preserve and protect Your people! We can’t take much more of this evil agenda. In Jesus’ Name and for His glory. Amen.
FATHER GOD please speak reality to joe biden! If he ignores YOU, send him to the desert like Nebechenezzer until he acknowledges YOU as The GOD of Heaven and Earth! Don’t allow him to take any more ground than he has already illegally taken! I bind the demons influencing him and command them to release him and let him go free! FATHER GOD please remove him and his entire cabinet followers out of office quickly, and we decree that none of them will ever be back in public life again in JESUS MIGHTY NAME! Amen!
