Quote:With gas prices remaining at or near all-time highs throughout the United States, Joe Biden has a new plan to help bring them down. According to the White House, the president is weighing a release of one million barrels a day from the strategic petroleum reserves. Further, he’s looking at using the Defense Production Act to federalize companies and force them to produce materials for “green energy” products.


Quote:Scoop: Biden admin is weighing a plan to release roughly A MILLION BARRELS OF OIL A DAY from U.S. reserves, for several months, to combat rising gasoline prices and supply shortages following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, sources tell @AlbertoNardelli @SalehaMohsin and me.

Quote:The White House might invoke the Defense Production Act as soon as this week to spur greater domestic output of raw materials for clean energy technology products and reduce U.S. dependence on foreign supply chains. https://t.co/L5OUjQIrQ3

For context, the US uses about 20 million barrels of oil a day. Releasing one million barrels a day would translate to a savings of about 18 cents a gallon off the national average if it translated directly to the price of gas. It won’t, though. Much of the oil held by the government is no longer useable domestically because of environmental regulations. Instead, any oil released would be dumped into countries like China and India. That could possibly make a small dent in the global price of oil, but when you consider that the world produces 76 million barrels of oil a day, that one million barrels suddenly becomes even more irrelevant.
In other words, Biden’s ploy is completely useless. It’s also dangerous in that the strategic reserves exist to supply years of oil to the United States in the event of some kind of isolating event. They also exist for military use if oil can’t be otherwise garnered while fighting a war. Again, we are talking preparation for apocalyptic-type events, not gas prices being too high because of the left’s self-defeating green agenda.

Further, the Defense Production Act is not at all designed to operate as a communism cheat code for presidents who are too stubborn to change their damaging energy policies. If it’s not profitable now for American companies to go gangbusters producing “green energy,” it won’t be just because Biden makes them. Such a move would also spur more inflation as the supply of the products those companies originally produced will be reduced in order to make things Americans don’t currently want to buy.
The obvious answer here continues to be for the government to make it far easier for oil companies to produce domestically. That is the only way to gain a reliable increase of oil on the world market, thereby bringing down energy prices across the board. Lower regulatory barriers, unfreeze federal leases, and provide incentives for companies to invest in long-term energy infrastructure projects (i.e. provide guarantees they won’t be shut down a year from now after investing billions of dollars).
None of this is difficult. Well, unless you are a nearly 80-year-old geriatric who clearly doesn’t even run his own administration. In the end, these moves by Biden, if they come to fruition are simply meant to signal that he’s “doing something.” It’s the equivalent of shipping out at-home COVID tests knowing that the problem of spread was not a lack of testing. This is all Democrats ever do. When they aren’t directly destroying America’s prominence and strength, they are virtue signaling by taking pointless actions not meant to actually solve the problem.

So let’s drain our strategic oil reserves and go full USSR on American companies. What could possibly go wrong?

The same plan that put the Soviet Union out of business!!!

One common misconception is that there was ONE Hudson West III company. In fact, there were five. Hudson West I through IV. Respectively, there were more than ONE Rosemont Seneca Technology Partners (RSTP I through IV), textbook shell company money laundering 101 structurings. There are very FEW skilled in that, and if Christopher Wray needed a guidebook, he could look into Senator Hoeven’s template; he’s sloppy.
What is most interesting is that when investigators were looking into the leasing and the Coastal Pipeline, they got “hacked.” It’s fascinating to watch the media scramble to whitewash the “hackers” they claimed were Russian but were really interns sitting in some closet in the peachy state of Georgia where a lot of specific interns seemed to have sequestered.
It’s incredible to realize the immense issues regarding ENERGY independence our nation faced that President Trump was trying to tackle when members of his OWN party were beneficiaries of Americans being dependent on China.
Hunter Biden wasn’t an expert in ENERGY. He was an “expert” at selling Energy Assets. Mergers and Acquisitions don’t require in depth knowledge.

Quote:How is Joe Biden dealing with the high gas prices?

As we reported earlier, he ordered that there would a release from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve — one million barrels a day for 180 days — to help lower the prices. This is an incredibly bad move — robbing our savings account at a time of great inflation and world instability — that does nothing to increase our long-term production. We’re only supposed to be using it in an emergency, which is not this when there are other options.

Why is he doing this now? For purely selfish political reasons — his numbers and those of the Democrats are in the dumpster. He knows that unless they do something, the Republicans are going to wipe them out big time in the election. Funny how that 180 days leads us right up to the month before the midterms It’s just wrong to endanger national security this way, especially when we have plenty of oil to provide for our own needs and the needs of our allies. We’re just not focusing on increasing production for energy independence because of the Biden/Democratic position against fossil fuels.
But White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain heralded the announcement of the release as “HISTORIC.”

Historic — like the burning Hindenburg.
Gas Buddy’s Patrick de Haan said it was a troubling move.
Quote:The SPR is not the strategic price reserve and should not be used IMO unless it is absolutely necessary, though the consumer side of me prefers lower #gasprices. I just think we ought to be careful. 1mb for up to 180 days gets me concerned.

From Townhall:
Quote:“Biden’s plan to release 1 million barrels of oil per day for up to 6 months is yet another pretend action to reduce gasoline prices,” said Steve Milloy, the founder of JunkScience.com and former member of Trump’s EPA transition team. “U.S. consumption is about 18 million barrels per day so Biden’s plan can and will have no meaningful effect on oil prices, especially given current pipeline and processing constraints,” Milloy pointed out. “The only way out of the inflationary spike in oil prices is to unleash domestic production, including more pipelines and refinery capacity, which Biden refuses to do because of his climate agenda.”

That Biden doesn’t want to do. Indeed he said today that oil companies who aren’t producing from leases (likely because they can’t because of lack of oil or Biden restrictions) could now face fines. As we noted earlier, he’s also going to try to impose a ton of taxes on them in his budget that would then likely be passed onto the consumer, as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) admitted.
While he’s trying to punish oil producers, now Biden is going all-in to promote clean energy. He formally invoked the Defense Production Act to dictate to private companies to “secure American production of critical materials to bolster our clean energy economy,” specifically the raw materials to make batteries for electric vehicles. So he’s using the Act — not for an emergency like a war or a pandemic as envisioned — but to impose his own political will to remake how energy is produced in this country. That’s not the point of the Act and it’s a wrongful action of the government to dictate to private industry.
This fundamental transformation ultimately is the whole point — and this is about using this moment for their agenda.

Biden claimed that moving to electric vehicles would save $80 a month in not having to pay gas.

What he leaves out is how Americans who have already been strained and can’t afford Biden’s inflation and high gas prices are going to pay for that expensive electric vehicle that costs $55,000.
But Joe Biden wouldn’t be Joe Biden if he didn’t couple those bad policies, ignorance, and lies with some incoherence and cognitive difficulties.
If you want to know how much help Biden needs, here’s his massive teleprompter.

That’s how big and clear it is — yet, he’s still always squinting and messing up what he’s supposed to say. For example, listen to this mess of a word salad.

He still can’t get it out, even with the teleprompter. How can he not read it? Why would anyone “unite with us,” as he begs, when they see leadership like this? They can see what happened to our allies in Afghanistan. He has done so much harm to America with his actions.
