west virginia -- patrick morrisey. a.g., welcome. your reaction to biden's plan to release oil from the reserves. >> first of all, maria, thank you very much for having me on. and i think that president biden's entire administrative policy from day one has been to put american energy last. it's really been russia first, america last central. you saw that with canceling of the keystone pipeline, you saw that with respect to the moratorium on oil and gas drilling and coal mining. you saw that with respect to his climate change policy that seems to put all our foreign competitors first. and now he wonders why inflation and gas prices have gone through the roof. this is the result of biden-general is rated policy. what's really important is that president biden is actually making every decision that you absolutely should not make when you're in the middle of a conflict and you're watching what's going on. he needs to get american energy roaring back by making certain regulatory decisions. and, obviously, his decision earlier that he made
