Biden’s Phony Gas-Price Investigation
Biden claims that gasoline producers are illegally colluding to rip off Americans, that there is “mounting evidence of anti-consumer behavior by oil-and-gas companies.”
There isn’t any such evidence, of course.
Biden has launched a federal investigation into oil and gas companies on grounds that are entirely pretextual — and, even as dumb as he is, he must know that the investigation is completely unwarranted.
He is using federal law-enforcement powers to harass innocent Americans, threatening them with litigation or criminal charges in order to deflect attention from the part his own policies have played in exacerbating inflation and other unwelcome economic developments.
That is an abuse of power, and a naked one.
In a sane world, that’s precisely the sort of thing you’d impeach a president over.
If misusing federal police powers with malice aforethought in the pursuit of political gain isn’t a presidential misdemeanor, then there are no presidential misdemeanors, and everything is permitted.
