Jake Sullivan pressed to keep open lines of communication even as Biden warned about nuclear "Armageddon"...

"People Are Fed Up": Soaring Electricity Bills Become New Pain Point For Biden
"I want energy that's affordable for me ... I'll vote for whoever I truly believe will make a change." Renewable energy is driving up electricity prices!
By Tyler Durden: Utility companies are increasing electricity prices for American households ahead of the heating season. Some households take on debt to cover their power bills, while millions cannot pay. High electricity bills will be yet another uncomfortable political pain point for the Biden administration, according to Bloomberg.
Ahead of the US midterm elections, we outlined in several pieces that rising commodity prices are forcing utility companies to negotiate power contracts with customers higher.
Readers may recall we recently titled a note, "Your Next Pain Will Be Soaring Electricity Costs As Energy Crisis Comes To America." A gubernatorial debate in California not too long ago focused on skyrocketing electricity bills. Across the country, in Maine, politicians argued whether renewable energy is driving up electricity prices. A New York Republican candidate for governor pitched a move for the state to reverse a ban on oil and natural gas drilling to secure energy.
Putin Skewers US Ineptitude
"They arrogantly rejected
all other variants and forms of government by
the people and, I want to emphasize this, did so
contemptuously and disdainfully … as if everyone
else were second-rate, while they were
exceptional."
In answer to a question on "the growing tensions between China and the United States over Taiwan," Putin labeled visits by top U.S. officials to Taiwan a "provocation." Putin added:
"Frankly, I do not know why they are doing this. … Are they sane? It seems that this runs completely counter to common sense and logic … This is simply crazy.
"It may seem that there is a subtle, profound plot behind this. But I think there is nothing there, no subtle thought. It is just nonsense and arrogance, nothing else. … Such irrational actions are rooted in arrogance and a sense of impunity."
