Laid-Off Keystone XL Workers Blast Biden’s Lies

Laid-off Keystone XL pipeline workers had choice words for President Joe Biden in a Fox News segment Saturday. Focusing on soaring gas prices across America, the segment included interviews with a group of laid-off workers.

“We should be able to sustain ourselves and not depend on other nations raising their price and then affect us. That shouldn’t even be in the question,” one worker told Fox News.

The Fox News reporter then asked: “If we want to get the price of gas down right now, we want to drop the price of gas, what do we need to do right now?”

“Put us to work right now. And you will see not only the fuel prices go down, but you will see the price of everything else go down with it,” the worker replied.

Workers then turned attention to Biden. “He’s pushing for solar and wind power, but it’s been proven over and over, that’s just not as efficient as burning natural gas, refining crude.” Another worked continued, saying: “We are sick of hearing, ‘This is Putin’s price hike.'”

The Fox News reporter then referenced White House press secretary Jen Psaki who said there are 9,000 permits that have already been granted to companies, which then chose not to pump. “She’s lying to the American people. There’s 9000 permits that were pulled. They might not even have oil under under the ground that they got the permit for,” a worker reacted to Psaki’s statement.

“So why would the oil company go and drill on that ground there may not even be oil there—let alone waste your damn money because they can’t run a pipeline to transport the oil and gas off the well?” the worker questioned.

“If there was all there, the gas companies would already be drilling it and they would already be producing it. And it’s a lie,” another worker concluded.
