California will raise gas taxes on July 1 because the timing is great? Gov. Newsom isn’t inclined to give a tax holiday but he will do the opposite. To solve the problem it creates, he is considering welfare “freebies” so people can buy food and fill up their tanks. San Francisco, CA – May 14th, 2022: Gas station sign on Lombard Street in San Francisco is showing record high prices above $6.00/gallon The average price of a gallon of gas has officially surpassed $6 for the first time in California and in U.S. history. It’s another first for Democrats!
The average per-gallon cost is now $6.05, though the price climbed as high as $7.79 in remote Mono County, according to AAA. The national average, meanwhile, was nearly $1.50 cheaper at $4.56 per gallon.
The state government of California will increase the state tax on gasoline from 51 cents per gallon to 53.9 cents. California has the highest taxes on gasoline.
The federal government might come to the rescue with handouts as they falsely claim the gas companies are gouging. No one gouges like the federal government with their climate and excise taxes.
They can’t do it just yet because the gas cards they want to hand out as gifts are a problem. There is a chip shortage. [It will add to inflation, by the way]
California has done everything it could to make gas prices skyrocket.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
