Apparently the people behind Joe Biden realize the ridiculous prices at the gas pump are going to be a major political issue for them in the next election. As a result, they have decided to release 50 million barrels of oil from the strategic petroleum reserve (SPR), enough for approximately 3 days of demand. [Announcement Here]
The strategic reserve is intended as an emergency supply in the event of war or national crisis that demands we have some insurance measures to protect ourselves. The SPR is the world’s largest supply of emergency crude oil, and the oil stocks are stored in underground salt caverns at four storage sites in Texas and Louisiana.
The oil in the strategic oil reserve was previously paid for by taxpayers. What Biden is doing right now is giving reserve oil to energy companies who then turn around and refine it into gasoline for taxpayers to purchase. We get to buy it twice, and Biden wants to be thanked for doing it.
The Biden administration is going to lower gas prices for taxpayers by allowing taxpayers to purchase their own oil. Brilliant!
In related news, the Biden administration also held a call today [LINK] to announce their plan to ease inflation by printing more money.
“I know Scout,… I know buddy”… “I know”…
Of course everyone knows this is Trump’s fault…..
I’m noticing that suddenly, he’s not being blamed so much any more. A bad sign for these morons.
Joe is trying to burnish his image on the back of tax payers who bought the oil in the first place. after he shutdown the XL Pipeline causing oil prices to skyrocket.
Supposedly 3 supertankers laden with US Strategic Reserve oil was recently sold to “Asia” (China?)
Let’s Go Joe
He also taxed and regulated the fracking industry out of existence.
Everybody knows ALMOST ALL politicians are rat scum filth that would betray their own Mothers, HOWEVER, they get elected by our “friends, neighbors, and acquaintances” who cast ballots and work the cheating processes of our elections! THEY are the ones that should be feeling the consequences, complaints and grievances of the INSANE policies that this 3rd Obama administration has bought down onto us. Politics is rapidly becoming Obama versus Trump, Black versus White, Cloward-Piven versus Conservative, Elite versus Herd, Genocidal Jihad versus Christianity, Century Old Grievances versus Historical Forgiveness. This is a world-wide drive to establish Elite Communist domain over the entire planet; nothing less.
Well, I just e-mailed russian , and ordered my ZiL, in battleship grey
Thereby making Joe/Bama THE most incapable, corrupt, & inept President in American History.
3 days supply… Please let me know, Brandon, which 3 days, so that I can stock up!
We have a real problem with our demented old psychopath Joe Biden. It’s so grotesque how a person can knowingly masquerade around as the President only for a TV camera. He can’t go anywhere that’s not totally orchestrated, his first impulse and those that perform the charade with him is to keep him hidden, really at all times not just in crisis. Really, in crisis is when they have to drag him out and try to put a band-aid on the situation. We all wonder who’s handling Biden? What does it matter because the phantom doesn’t know how to govern either. How can you spend all your precious time and energy trying to make this enterprise work. Are they going to live this Lie of trying to put a square peg Biden in the round hole of the Presidency for 4 years? See, the Administration is the fiasco not just the debacles they are creating.
Don’t fall into the trap of thinking this incompetence is some sort of well thought out plan (sometimes operative selfishness can give that appearance); surely they want to destroy America as such; but they do not want to fail miserably at literally everything they do.
Everything is Public Relations (PR). We live as part of a Machine that has its own will and takes its own course of actions. The best we can do is try and exert some influence over it through our public relations because we have no other real control. I once heard a CEO of a major corporation describe his job as being “like a tick riding an elephant.” And that was 30+ years ago. I imagine in this day & age it’s more like being “a piece of bacteria riding an elephant.” That explains the behavior of a lot of people in the public eye. Have you ever wondered why in all these severely troubled times someone hasn’t used the occasion to rise out of the Military and seize power using emergency authority? They know they can’t, the Machine would gobble them up. Look what it did to President Trump and he was lily white, had incredible personal means, and went about everything in a conventional manner.
See we’re all fighting for the “Social Order,” (we have to change the character of the Machine), which is why you’re always hearing me harping on the Culture War. Trust me, they don’t want these debacles – Egotistically, Promotionally, Optically, or Psychologically (remember their incompetence shocks themselves too). Total failure at everything you do is not a victory in the Culture War. It is being Vanquished (but the collateral damage is severe for us).
And it couldn’t be more alarming for the Biden vaccines as well, which are being undermined by this same kind of corruption and incompetence (notice corruption and incompetence go together hand in hand).
Speaking of incompetence, our Not so wonderful leader Bumbling Boris in attempting to make a speech to leading industrialists at the Confederation of British Industry proved to us all his insanity.
He could not even find the pages of his speech.
When he did find it, it contained a scripted list of how our conservative government intends to destroy Britain by banning oil and gas and sending us back to the stone age.
Perhaps some kind soul could find a link to this cringe worthy performance?
‘Are they going to live this Lie of trying to put a square peg Biden in the round hole of the Presidency for 4 years?’
Sadly, I believe yes, and further, yesterday Biden announced he is planning to run again in ’24. Not that he will be the nominee or win, but the fact he plans to run is one of complete disconnect with the populous.
Why would he worry about winning after 2020? They got away with it then, they’ll get away with now.
Dipstick granholm doesnt even know how much oil the US consumes in a day. Bidet only nominates the best!
But Clueless Joe is still allowing US Oil EXPORTS to other countries – plus Exports are scheduled to increase in 2022.
He’s doing everything he can to destroy this country in record time.
And it’s working.
Biden’s stripping our Strategic Reserve in an effort to make HIMSELF look better, now that HIS Admin. has inflated the prices.
We were smooth sailing under Mr. Trump; then the Wuhan-Fauci Flu came to town as a smokescreen while Swamp stole the election and installed Mr. Biden as the faux-president. And look what he’s done in less than a year. Are you happy Democrats; Hollywood; college professors; media; DOJ; FBI; CIA NSA?
Great Joe. ‘Just when I thought you couldn’t make us any more vulnerable.

God forbid we have a national emergency where the SOR are really needed.
It is my understanding that the pull companies bid on the oil. Therefore they are buying the oil likely at a higher price than we the people paid for it. So, though I don’t agree at all with biden’s oil policies, I don’t agree with the premise that we are buying it twice.
I wonder if the phantom 81 million fraudulent voters and happy with the results that their skullduggery has wrought .
My understanding is that the US as a whole consumes around 20 million barrels of oil per day. Can someone explain this decision to me? I went to public school, and partied a lot in college but my math says this is a little over two days worth of consumption. How does this do anything to alleviate price increases?
