“The Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) should not be used to manipulate the crude oil market or product markets.

That is the long-held view of the Independent Petroleum Association of America (IPAA), the organization’s chief operating officer, Jeff Eshelman, highlighted in a statement sent to Rigzone recently.

“It should be a safety net in case of disruption of crude oil supplies. Policy makers should oppose all non-emergency sales of oil,” Eshelman said.

Clueless Joe will do whatever harms America. Period. He knows he’s only got until next November to cause total destruction.

He wants to completely drain America of oil so that we’d be totally dependent on OPEC just like during Carter. If people thought there were long gas lines then, just wait. We’ll totally collapse. But wait one! We’ll have renewable energy to save us.

It’s all intentional. You cannot make a case for solar and wind at current prices. Oil has to be cut off, gas has to be $5/gallon. This is all to get to their green dream, while poor and middle class suffer. ... and while they offer no alternative in power so that’s going to be fun when all cars are electric and our grid cannot handle it.

Need more verification that this is happening. Doubt that no one in Congress is aware of it.

Biden is pooping his pants, eating ice cream, and dreaming about Corn Pop and little girls.

Our REAL reserves are in TX and the Dakotas. This will do little or exacerbate the current situation. 😳🐴💩

It’s almost like they’re preparing us to be caught with our pants down when China invades Taiwan and Russia invades Ukraine.

When all the oil and SPR is gone they will have to refill the supplies at market price from whoever now does that make any sense whatsoever

The geniuses at WashPo chime in,
Biden should tap the SPR ‘ to show he cares”
Because utilizing strategic energy assets is about feelings.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/11/11/show-he-cares-about-inflation-biden-should-tap-into-strategic-petroleum-reserve/

But wait, was Joe supposed to tap the SPR and ship it to Asia?
Looking for more details on the customers…

Biden is NOT in charge. It is Obama’s America hating crew.

Drain the Petroleum Reserve, cut off external sources, drive energy prices through the roof ushering in the age of electric cars for elites. The others can walk or ride bikes.

Shouldn’t he be thanking Trump for filling it when crude was $10/barrel?
