Mike Pompeo called the Russian invasion of Ukraine a failure of American leadership. “[Putin] saw — from his soil — American pipelines shut down, southeast gas lines shut down, and President Biden meets him and just wags the finger,” Pompeo said. The Biden Administration buried the best weapon to protect Ukraine and the West: American oil and gas. However, Biden crushed the American energy industry, proving what conservatives have said from the beginning: it’s a national security issue when America becomes dependent on foreign oil.
