So basically we are screwed in Voting Rights unless a CARVE-OUT for voting rights is created in the filibuster and screwed because people can't see beyond their immediate noses, which I see everyday, working part-time in a supermarket. This is why I am saying (as are others on Twitter), open the Strategic Oil Reserve because PERCEPTION is reality. Even if you don't think this will account for much change Dan, it is the PERCEPTION of a President who cares...and making a BFD about it in a news conference.

Under “Get Caught Trying”, open the strategic reserve. It may be truly of little actual help, but it makes you look like you’re trying. Some of the creative political types could formulate some Executive Orders that address issues in this space: drop the tariffs on China and any remaining EU tariffs. Whatever benefit the WH thinks they deliver is far overshadowed by the signal it would send to US consumers. Ask refiners if there any things that government could do to streamline their processes. If so, consider removing them by EO.

Get Austin Goolsby to accompany Biden on his trips to promote the Infrastructure and Jobs plan. Give him a (well-rehearsed and interesting) two minutes to deliver a message that these efforts will lower inflation.
