Fox News reported:

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., on Friday slammed Republicans for criticizing President Biden when “we’re at war.”

Hoyer, the second-highest-ranking House Democrat made the inflammatory statement while debating on the House floor, pushing back on Republicans’ pointing out Biden has “clamped down” on producing energy domestically.

“The Biden administration approved more drilling permits in 2021 than the Trump administration approved in the first three years they were in office,” Hoyer said. “I don’t know how the [Republican leader] rationalizes his comments about the Biden constricting petroleum production.”

“It is unfortunate that in a time of war, that we spend all the time blaming our own president,” Hoyer continued. “It is unfortunate that when the Europeans put themselves over the objections of numerous administrations in a place where they had a dependence on Russia, Russia has no leverage over us.”

“I wish we’d get off this and really focus on the enemy,” the Democrat leader added. “I know there’s a lot of politics here, but we’re at war. We need to produce energy.”
