Many blame Joe Biden for his war on Energy for the skyrocketing fuel prices that started to rise about a month after he took office. Biden cancelled the Keystone XL pipeline, halted oil leases on federal lands, stopped offshore drilling in the Gulf and Alaska and tapped into the Strategic Oil Reserves only to send that oil to Europe.
