Tucker Carlson discussed the alarming possibility of diesel fuel shortages within 25 days due to Biden regime policies during Thursday night’s edition of his Fox News program.
“Thanks to the Biden administration’s religious war in Ukraine, this country is about to run out of diesel fuel. According to data from the Energy Information Administration by the Monday of Thanksgiving week, (that’s 25 days from now), there will be no more diesel,” Carlson said.
“What’s going to happen then? Well, everything will stop,” the Fox News host noted. “That means trucks and trains and barges all unable to move.”
“Farm equipment will shut down. There will be no deliveries because there’ll be no trucks,” Carlson said. “There’ll be no diesel generators and then inevitably, our economy will crash because everything runs on diesel fuel—not on solar panels, not on wind farms, on diesel fuel.”
“Diesel is not a negotiable commodity,” he noted. “You have to have diesel.”

Carlson continued, “Just pause and savor the irony here just for a moment because now everything is irony. They’ve been telling you for decades since Al Gore left the White House, that the single greatest threat to the world was warming and because of their efforts to fight warming, you are in danger of freezing and unlike warming, freezing actually kills people, a lot of people every year, and it will kill people in the West this year, thanks to their efforts to fight warming.”
“This shouldn’t be happening in this of all countries,” Carlson said. “The United States has some of the deepest – by some measures, the deepest – energy reserves on the planet. It’s our main strength. Cheap energy is the reason this is a rich country. That’s the reason. That’s why we’re exceptional, because we have cheap energy and this country was energy independent a few years ago.”
“Now, if you want to fix the economy, you would make this country energy independent once again,” Carlson added. “You would bring back cheap energy. That will fix the economy quicker than anything else. That’s the only thing that’ll fix the economy.”
He noted that instead, “the Biden administration, for whatever reason, has done the opposite — depleting our Strategic Petroleum Reserve, for example. They just released another 15 million barrels the other day.”
“Because they know that’s running out, the White House is also begging foreign governments for help in the most humiliating possible way,” Carlson said. “Biden just went and begged the Saudis in secret for more oil.”
“The problem is the people running the government are children,” Carlson concluded. “They not only can’t admit what they’ve done wrong, they don’t even understand it.”
