568 million barrels of oil in the strategic petroleum reserve. Biden will drain 1 million a day for six months or 180 million barrels or 31% to save the political asses of the Democrat Party. He has tapped it twice with no results.
Like all Biden decisions it is wrong. Presidents back to 1975 have added to the stash. It was primarily for defense purposes . It would be difficult to defend the country if the Middle East cut off the 40% of our requirements we bought from them.
Now the President who created high gas prices knows the Democrats will pay dearly for his mistakes in the November mid-term elections will tap the nation’s defense security to try to avoid a political disaster.
Every decision is wrong.
