Nancy Pelosi expressed shock and indignation on gas prices in California in a Thursday news conference.
“It costs a lot of money in California. If you drive around in California and see the cost, you think, ‘how could this be?’” the 82-year-old career politician questioned. Nancy Pelosi SHOCKED by massive spike in gas prices in California: — TheBlaze (@theblaze) March 31, 2022 Gas prices in the Los Angeles metropolitan area have inched to six dollars a gallon.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
