“We can save our planet, and we can protect the earth. Climate change is real. It’s not drill, drill drill. Our only approach is to be strategic. We need to make sure our European allies support us because it’s going get very painful,” she added, applauding Biden for his actions so far. 

Christie stated earlier that it should have happened long ago in the segment on the possible oil ban. “We should have been arming Ukraine for the past year, but we didn’t.” We should have done more to increase domestic oil production. Instead, we are going backwards and Putin is holding us hostage.”

Jonathan Karl, ABC’s chief Washington correspondent, said earlier that it was “extraordinary,” that Biden was sanctioning anything but Russian oil, “the things that drive their economy.”

ABC’S JONATHAN KARL BAFFLED BY BIDEN SANCTIONING ‘EVERYTHING BUT’ RUSSIAN OIL: ‘EXTRAORDINARY’

Karl said, “The question is banning the import oil and gas from Russia.” It is not insignificant. We actually import more oil from Russia than from Saudi Arabia. George, it’s amazing that Russia has been subject to all of the sanctions that have been imposed. They have been unprecedented in imposing sanctions on Russia for sanctioning everything except the things that drive our economy.
