    “Republicans are calling for more oil drilling. Europe says it’s doubling down on clean energy. [But as the Russian invasion of Ukraine continues into its second week, gasoline] prices have remained [President] Biden’s consistent focus…[and he has] avoided linking the diplomatic and economic isolation of Russia — one of the world’s top three oil producers — to his goal of decarbonizing the economy, as international allies and some other Democrats have. Nor has Biden heeded calls from industry, Republicans and Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) to jump-start domestic drilling to replace Russian oil…
