Gas prices are out of control &#038; people are getting hammered at the pump. The time is now to make America energy independent \u2013 again,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>President Biden and his surrogates have repeatedly blamed the spike in energy costs on Russian President Vladimir Putin and his continuing invasion of Ukraine. The administration has pushed the hashtag #PutinPriceHike and attempted to keep the public\u2019s focus on the most recent price jump \u2014 which does coincide with the buildup of Russian troops along Ukraine\u2019s border and the subsequent invasion \u2014 while ignoring the fact that energy costs have been steadily increasing since Biden took office and killed the Keystone XL Pipeline project.<\/p>\n<p>And Governor DeSantis is far from the only one criticizing President Biden for blaming Putin for skyrocketing energy costs while actively curtailing domestic energy production.<\/p>\n<p>Daily Wire editor emeritus Ben Shapiro mocked the Biden energy \u201cstrategy\u201d in a <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/benshapiro\/status\/1501562063864352775\">tweet<\/a>, saying, \u201cBiden\u2019s plan to lower gas prices: 1. Blame Putin 2. Solicit from Putin\u2019s allied dictator in Venezuela 3. Do nothing to increase domestic production 4. Blame oil companies 5. Blather about windmills and solar panels 6. Ask the Saudis to help while fluffing Iran 7. \u2026 8. VICTORY!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGuys, he is just terrible at this. He makes Jimmy Carter look like Abraham Lincoln,\u201d Shapiro added.<\/p>\n<p>Fox News White House Correspondent Peter Doocy has <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/peter-doocy-asks-for-a-straight-answer-on-keystone-gets-the-runaround-from-jen-psaki\/\">directly challenged<\/a> press secretary Jen Psaki on increasing domestic production of oil and gas, asking her repeatedly whether or not Biden would open up more leases and permits and whether he would ever consider allowing construction on Keystone XL to restart.<\/p>\n<p>Psaki argued that Keystone would not produce more oil \u2014 although it would allow for easier transport of oil from Canada \u2014 and claimed that American oil companies already had access to thousands of leases that were not being used.<\/p>\n<p>But as many have pointed out, having access to an approved lease and having a permit to explore or drill for oil are not necessarily the same thing.<\/p>\n<p>Fox News contributor Katie Pavlich explained, \u201cLeases for drilling are not the same thing as permits. You can have tons of leases (WH claims 9000) and no permits. Permits can take ages to get approved by the government, federal and local.
