California's getting exactly what it wanted – and now Gruesome Newsom is shocked that gas prices are about to skyrocket again. Valero just confirmed they're shutting down their Benicia refinery after failed talks with state officials, because surprise – you can't virtue signal your way out of basic economics.We break down how California's 20-year crusade against fossil fuels created this mess, why their desperate search for a refinery buyer is going nowhere, and what happens when you constrict supply while demanding the impossible. Meanwhile, they'll import oil on massive container ships from the Middle East because apparently that's more "green" than local production.Is anyone surprised that the state pushing hardest for an energy transition has no actual plan for reliable power or charging infrastructure? What did they expect when Biden threw billions at EV charging stations that never materialized?This is progressivism in action – virtue signaling while working families pay $5-6 per gallon.
