Xiden is selling our emergency reserve to our enemy.

About 1.6 million barrels of crude from the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve — a monthly record — was shipped out in October, according to data from market intelligence firm Kpler.

"Given the ongoing pace of the current SPR release — 12 million barrels in the last two months and the biggest weekly release so far last week at 3.1 million barrels — it's fair to assume more SPR barrels are going to leave U.S. shores in the weeks ahead," said Matt Smith, an oil analyst at Kpler.
 
"The White House has been mulling a range of options to ease soaring pump prices and Democrats are pressing for a potential ban on oil exports as well as the release of crude from the nation’s strategic reserves."

Wait - they want to ban oil exports and also release crude from our SPR? Isn't that a contradiction?

And - how does exporting oil from our SPR help push down domestic energy prices? I'm not seeing the logic there.

Plus - those Reserves are there for an emergency, and Biden's falling poll numbers is not an emergency.

The logic is the sale is part of the Trump 2021 budget that was approved by Congress.
 
Joe is trying to put the American oil business out of business....and its gonna cost us all more than just money....

Don't be stupid. The US has the highest production costs in the world.. If the ppb goes down too low, they lose their shirts.
