Trump blames 'Big Oil' for gas prices
Oil prices have returned to near pre-war levels, but US retail gas prices remain above $3.90, prompting President Donald Trump to accuse 'Big Oil' of price gouging, echoing former President Joe Biden's earlier complaints. Trump has ordered his Justice Department to investigate oil companies despite the fact that 'Big Oil' does not set retail gas prices.
