Biden’s Venezuela Capitulation Deepens Energy Policy Incoherence
By Timothy H. Lee
Thursday, December 01 2022
At this point, Joe Biden’s affection toward petroleum-rich dictatorships and hostility toward American energy producers approach fetish status.   Or, in the inimitable wit of Senator John Kennedy (R – Louisiana), the Biden energy policy amounts to a “moronathon.”   In the latest episode, the Biden Administration just agreed to lift sanctions on the murderous, terror-sponsoring dictatorship of Venezuela and allow U.S. companies to resume drilling operations there.  That reverses years of sanctions beginning in 2006 in response to Venezuelan…
