With Gasoline At $8 Per Gallon In California, How In The World Did Biden Get Us Into A Fight With OPEC+? October 7, 2022

This is not the big story, but it is part of the big story.

The big story: how in the world did Biden get us (US) into a fight with Saudi Arabia? 

Several months ago I mentioned that there were two "wings" in the West Wing:

  • the idealists: the far left, Bernie Sanders / John Kerry liberals, green wing; and,
  • the pragmatists: the less far left, liberal, political, pragmatic wing.

The idealists don't care about politics, winning elections; they will leave that up to the other, pragmatic, political wing. 

The two wings are running rings around the president. He doesn't have time for the far left liberals so they are setting the agenda. He's only interested in politics, winning the mid-terms. 

Unfortunately, while listening to the political wing which led to the SPR release, the far left wing set him up for failure, setting the stage for a fight with OPEC (which the US cannot win).
