Senator John Kennedy, R-La., Warned Tuesday that President Biden’s comprehensive executive orders relating to the industrial energy sector and immigration will be detrimental to the country and, in the former case, his homeland.
Kennedy told host Trey Gowdy, host of Fox News Primetime, that a third of Pelican State’s GDP comes from the oil and gas industry.
“[The green energy orders] is immeasurably foolish, “he said. They go Louisiana like a fish gut. Its war on oil and gas is going to hurt America. It is going to destroy our energy independence.
“Here is President Biden’s new energy policy: ‘We are not going to produce our own oil. Instead, we are going to buy oil from countries we hate, so that they will have more money to buy weapons to try to kill us.’

“It’s immeasurably foolish,” Kennedy continues. “Most Americans support an energy policy with all of the above: oil, gas, wind, solar, nuclear, geothermal, hydrogen. But they also understand that we cannot run the largest economy in all of human history without oil and gas. ‘
Kennedy noted that Democrats like Biden have turned green energy and ‘climate change’ into a religion, and the president ‘sucks it up like a Hoover Deluxe’.
On immigration, Kennedy said it was clear Biden wanted to interfere with his party’s left wing.

“I think President Biden has decided to abide by the Congresswoman’s edicts. [Alexandria] “Ocasio-Cortez, who worships at the altar of open borders, and I think it’s a big mistake, and I do not think the American people will support it,” he said.
‘Unless you have the IQ of a lazy person, you know the difference between legal and illegal immigration … If people at the border, like every country, are not racist, it’s sensible, that’s how we apply immigration laws. ‘
