Europe is still sucking on Russian oil pipes, and Russia's oil revenues are up 50%. If our current administration, and most of Washington politicians hate Russia so badly, why not produce more oil? Because... Washington politicians just want to enrich the military-industrial complex, its investors, and its bribe takers (themselves), at the expense of American taxpayers. They know Ukraine can't win. Reducing our oil production makes that obvious. They just want to sell arms. Their cheerleading for Ukraine is a BIG LIE.
OT: If US Democrats and neocons hate Russia, why not produce more gas?

They know Ukraine can't win. They don't. It may take a while before the western democracies can ship enough of the right kind of weapons to the Ukraine to let the Ukranians expel the Russians and maybe even recover Crimea, but Russia is going to have a hard time replacing the men and weapons it is losing. So far the Ukraine has survived, and has chewed up a lot of Russian equipment and manpower in the process.

If they feel really pressed they can use tactical nuclear weapons, I don't have many doubts that Putin strongly believes he can use at least a few of those and Europe, and the US and Europe will back down rather than escalate. Hasn't happened so I don't think Russia feels particularly pressured right now. They're taking losses but seem to have accepted the long-haul position is what it is. I think Europe and the US are less well-equipped for the long-haul position, the US economy is headed straight for the shitter and the Biden admin's chances of re-election are about 0% right now, and Putin's buddy Trump's chances in 2024 are looking pretty good. Putin can drag this one out to Nov 2024 no prob

The Democrats are clearly enjoying twisting this sword. And if it had been a Democrat president who did the same thing, the Republicans would've done the same thing. But at the end of the day I think they're wasting their time, the hearings will likely amount to nothing of substance happening and in the meantime they're probably going to lose Congress and probably the Presidency in epic style.
