REPORT: Biden considering easing sanctions on socialist Venezuela for more oil

by The Right Scoop

CNN is reporting that Biden is now considering easing sanctions on socialist Venezuela as a way of getting more oil into the international markets:

Here’s more from CNN:

The Biden administration is weighing the possibility of easing sanctions on Venezuela so that the country can begin producing more oil and selling it on the international market, according to a person with direct knowledge of the matter.

The move would be aimed at reducing global dependence on Russian oil amid Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and at isolating Russia from one of its key allies in South America, the person said.

Biden administration officials, including National Security Council Director for the Western Hemisphere Juan Gonzalez and US special presidential envoy for hostage affairs Roger Carstens, were dispatched to Caracas over the weekend for talks on the issue, the person said, as well as to discuss the American citizens currently detained in the country. The New York Times first reported the officials’ travel to Venezuela.

Remember: Washington imposed sanctions on Venezuelan oil in 2019 and closed its embassy in Caracas after deeming Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro’s election victory in 2018 to be a sham.

Unbelievable. Biden would rather ease sanctions on a dangerous and oppressive dictator like Maduro than his stranglehold on the US to produce more oil.

Let me remind you who Maduro is, unless you’ve forgotten. This video says it all:

WARNING CONTENT WARNING

When Mark Levin says leftists like Biden ‘hate America’, this is exactly what he means. His own policies have put us in this difficult place but instead of reversing his policies and pushing America to produce more oil, Biden runs to a dictator like Maduro for help.

Stephen Miller makes a great point about how absurd this is:

And guess who still doesn’t want to put sanctions on Russia’s oil and gas….

I know I’ve said it before, but I never thought I’d see a president worse than Obama in the Oval Office.

UPDATE: Here’s Psaki saying that Biden wants to buy oil from the Saudis, Iran, and Venezuela.

What a joke. He’s forced to seek refuge with horrible countries because of his own horrible policies.
