President Biden caused $100 million in damage to the infrastructure that stores the nation’s emergency crude oil supply when he ordered nearly 180 million barrels to be sold for lower energy prices ahead of the 2022 midterm elections, said Energy Secretary Chris Wright.

Mr. Wright said taxpayers will have to foot the bill for more than $100 million in repairs to the facilities that store and distribute the emergency oil.

“They flooded the market with oil, reduced the price of oil in the short term, but at the cost of U.S. strategic positioning and they damaged the facilities in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve by draining them so fast,” Mr. Wright told Glenn Beck on Blaze TV.



In a rush to buy an election, they broke a bunch of shit and didn't bother fixing it over the next 2.5 years.

Sounds like Democrats. Sounds like Joe Biden*.

Feel free to put it there and let this thread get buried. I have a hard enough time finding topical stuff after you come in and necropost a bunch of stuff. I don't have any patience to go digging through old threads or even bothering with making a list of them on my end.

Maybe we should stop selling all of it to other countries.
