N.J. Governor Phil Murphy’s Hypocrisy on Saudi Arabia

Brent Johnson’s recent report, Saudi Arabia move to cut oil supply ‘a war on N.J. working families,’ Murphy says, is very instructive.

Gov. Phil Murphy’s “clean energy” agenda includes “weaning the state off its century-old addiction to fossil fuels.”

But if fossil fuels are as bad for N.J. residents as Murphy keeps saying, he should be cheering the Saudi cutbacks. Why doesn’t he? By criticizing them instead, Murphy is tacitly admitting that the Dem’s war on fossil fuels is destructive to the well-being of ordinary people. So if the Saudi cutback is analogous to “a war on N.J. working families,” then his agenda is analogous to “a nuclear holocaust” for N.J. As the worldwide energy crisis unfolds, the utopian anti-fossil fuel “clean energy” agenda is increasingly exposed by its own champions’ hypocrisy as a dangerous fraud.
