We're Six Months Ahead of an Election So That Must Mean It's Time for Biden to Tap the Political, I Mean Strategic Petroleum Reserve Again

This demented pant-shitting rapist has brought trust and dignity back to the White House.

Biden promised to refill it. He cancelled that promise. Now he wants to deplete it further to give him an election boost.

President Biden will use crude oil from the strategic petroleum reserve should the need arise, energy adviser Amos Hochstein has said, noting there was enough oil in the reserve.

"We have been replenishing into the SPR for the last several months. I think we have sufficient supply in the SPR to address any kind of concern in the economy if we need it," Hochstein said, speaking at the Milken Institute Global Conference, as quoted by Reuters.

The U.S. saw the stockpiles of crude oil in the SPR fall from 638 million barrels at President Joe Biden's inauguration to just 347 million barrels by the summer of 2023 as the administration tried to bring down gasoline prices for consumers by releasing over 180 million barrels from the SPR.
