Did Psaki Admit to Nefarious Strategy?

If you ask White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, every problem in the United States is because of Vladimir Putin. Even our rising gas prices.
For their first year in office, the Biden Administration blamed President Trump for every problem. Now, they’ve shifted the blame to Russian President Vladimir Putin. When it comes to the rapidly rising gas prices here in the U.S., the Biden answer is “it’s Putin’s fault.” Inflation? Putin.
When asked what’s going to happen with gas prices, President Biden answered curtly: “Gonna go up. Can’t do much right now. Russia’s responsible.”
Seriously? That’s the response from the President of the United States of America? Just throw your hands up and say “it’s not my fault.” Frankly, it’s embarrassing.
Just yesterday, Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy challenged Psaki on her constant misdirection, shifting the blame on Putin.
"Doocy: The President’s statement blames the Putin price hike. Are you guys just going to start blaming Putin for everything, until the midterms?
Psaki: Well we’ve seen the price of gas go up at least seventy-five cents since President Putin lined up troops on the border of Ukraine."
Okay, maybe, but what about before the Russian tanks ever reached Ukraine’s border? Why were gas prices already rising before that?
We all saw the humorous – and not incorrect – stickers being stuck to gas pumps recently showing President Biden pointing to the price with the caption “I did that.” That started months ago when the price at the pump began to rise. The Russian invasion of Ukraine began roughly two weeks ago. Unlike your bill when you fill your tanks, Psaki’s math doesn’t add up.
