Republicans have unveiled new legislation that seeks to block the U.S. from buying oil from Iran.
Iran has been rightfully designated as a State Sponsor of Terrorism since 1984.
The nation continues to conduct terrorist-related activity, including support for Hizballah, Palestinian terrorist groups in Gaza, and various terrorist groups in Syria, Iraq, and throughout the Middle East.
When the U.S. purchases oil in this region, it provides significant compensation, which in turn supports radical Islamists running the regime.
Biden has unsuccessfully attempted to arrange phone calls with world leaders in order to import more foreign oil.
To force Biden to focus on domestic energy rather than buying oil supplies from hostile terrorist regimes, the Republican Study Committee introduced the “No Oil From Terrorists Act.”
Republicans argue that Biden should end the executive orders that canceled the Keystone XL pipeline from Canada.
Biden should also rescind other executive orders that froze oil and gas leases on federal lands, according to the GOP.
A damaging report in The Wall Street Journal outlines what’s happening behind closed doors in the Biden White House.
Joe Biden attempted to arrange a phone call with leaders in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, but they have denied those requests. The purpose of the call was to seek more oil and help decrease prices for consumers in the U.S.
“The White House unsuccessfully tried to arrange calls between President Biden and the de facto leaders of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates,” WSJ reported, adding that “the U.S. was working to build international support for countering Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and contain a surge in oil prices.”
Both Middle East and U.S. officials confirmed this information to The Wall Street Journal.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman declined requests to speak with Biden.
The U.A.E.’s Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed al Nahyan also “declined U.S. requests to speak to Mr. Biden in recent weeks.”
“Saudi and Emirati officials have become more vocal in recent weeks in their criticisms of American policy in the Gulf,” the report added.
“There was some expectation of a phone call, but it didn’t happen,“ said a U.S. official of the planned discussion between the Saudi Prince Mohammed and Mr. Biden. ”It was part of turning on the spigot [of Saudi oil].”
Ultimately, the report concludes that this “signals they won’t help ease surging oil prices.”
Americans are facing the worst inflation rate in 39 years, according to CNBC.
“Inflation hit another high in February, marking the worst numbers since 1982 for American consumers,” the report says.
This rate is measured by the Consumer Price Index, which sits at 7.9 percent. Watch the clip:

Inflation effectively impacts Americans as a tax that particularly hurts the poor and middle class who are struggling to buy groceries, gas, and other basic necessities.
There is no clear indication that the inflation rate will decrease. Some experts say that inflation is expected to keep rising as Joe Biden and Democrats have called for more government spending.
High spending levels by the federal government are widely believed to be the cause of inflation.
