Claim
An expert predicts that gas prices in California will spike to $8 next year!
Fact
The “expert” in this case has been funded by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and his “analysis” had NO sources and included NO methodology – just guesses.
Meanwhile, average gas prices in California are 50 cents less than a year ago. This comes after Governor Newsom’s special session efforts to increase price transparency at the pump to eliminate price spikes and increase fuel reserves to keep supply steady during planned and unplanned maintenance at refineries.
