The price of a gallon of gas is now over $4 a gallon in all 50 states for the first time in history:
U.S. gas prices have soared to a record high of $4.67 per gallon on average nationally, with prices jumping 48 cents in May alone, according to AAA, as one gas station in Los Angeles is charging more than $8-a-gallon.
States like California and New York are seeing higher than normal prices, with a gallon of gasoline costing between $4.88 to $6.19, with a downtown LA Chevron station standing as an outlier charging $8.05-a-gallon
For the first time in history, the average price has exceeded $4.00 in all 50 states.
Just a half a year ago the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee was thanking President Biden for a very slight drop in the price of gas:
This Democrat tweet turns 6-months old today.
Dems thanked Biden for gas prices dropping 2 cents when it cost $3.40 per gallon.
6-months later, gas now costs $4.71 per gallon.
Thanks, @JoeBiden. https://t.co/MZccwF5tKn

This is definitely worthy of deletion:

Now this “thanks Joe Biden” can be replaced with a hearty “Let’s Go Brandon”:
Lol.

Of course, you won't. Because if huge spike upward.

Remember this classic?
Yes, thanks a lot @JoeBiden for skyrocketing gas prices today. https://t.co/YsP0SYmZIy

If prices in some areas ever drop from $5 to $4.95 a gallon the DCCC will likely still have the audacity to insist that we thank Biden for that.
