Stuart Varney discusses gas prices in West as Democrats push climate politics

During his latest My Take, Varney Co. host Stuart Varney discussed the spike in gas prices as Democrats push climate politics, arguing Americans are all paying for Biden's green dreams. STUART VARNEY: Throughout the West, gas prices are surging. It was the worst spike in a long time.

Look at this: Nevada, Oregon, Washington, Alaska, Arizona.

All saw gains of 30 cents a gallon in a few days.

It is the people of California who are taking the biggest hit. Regular, at $6.41, is up over 50 cents a gallon.

This is bad news for a country with the highest poverty rate in the country and the widest inequality income gap.

This is all about supply and demand, green politics, and what President Biden says.

California demands specially blended gas, and three of the refineries that produce it are having production issues. There is a problem with OPEC cutting production by two million barrels a day.

It was one million, according to early reports. They're talking about two. It is an embarrassment for the president.

He asked the Saudis to produce more.

He won't allow us to get our own energy.

When he ended America's energy independence on the day, he was in the pocket of the greens.

At some point, voters, even in the formerly golden state, will figure out they're being taken for a ride.
