On Monday's broadcast of Fox News Channel's “Fox & Friends,” incoming White House press secretary Caroline Leavitt said President Joe Biden waited until two weeks before leaving office to announce the drilling restrictions he had announced earlier in the day. He said that it tells the story. The movement is being promoted by radical leftists and aims to be “anti-Trump, not pro-American.”
Levitt said the move “is the work of radical left-wing environmental extremists in the administration who don't care about what's in the interests of the American people, and who just re-elected President Trump on the platform of drilling.” It's up to the people,” he said. ,drill. ”
Co-host Steve Doocy said, “Apparently, a lot of these lands…in a lot of these areas, gas refiners just don't seem to have any interest in developing them at all. But nevertheless, it's just… It's just symbolic. And we know it's going to be challenged in court, and we know Republicans can change the law, but still, it's not the first two weeks but the last two. To accomplish that in a week speaks volumes.”
Mr. Levitt replied: As I said, this is just the Biden administration trying to deliver a nasty punch to President Trump as Joe Biden exits. But this will be Joe Biden's legacy, not doing what's in his best interest. [of] Asking Americans to lower the cost of living and inflation that is taking away their hard-earned paychecks every week, no, that's throwing stones at people who don't believe in their ideology. That's not pro-America, it's anti-Trump. ”
