That's correct. President Biden released 50 million barrels from the US Strategic Oil Reserve. He obviously didn't ask how much we use. The US uses 20 million barrels a day, that's right we now have oil for 2 1/2 more days. Does that sound like anything that will have areal effect? At some point we have to replace that. Trump is the reason it's full now. Joe is the reason we are not producing our own. It's Biden trying to fool the public. In his speech he said the fault is the oil companies making a profit. Well, the fault is Biden restricting oil, natural gas and coal production in America. If not for his restrictions we would produce right here at home all we need and more and be able to help with world wide price inflation by selling some of what we can produce to help control the price.
 
Full? It was fuller when Trump took office than when he left.

Really? Got any facts to back that up or are you just expecting all of us to take your word for it.

Yeah right. Are you pretending to have djt's truthfulness or do you just not like to do any research?

US Strategic Petroleum Reserve to start unloading crude barrels as soon as April

A federal effort to sell roughly 20 million barrels of crude oil from the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve could begin deliveries as early as April and continue well into 2021.

The image shows until I post, but it is from the article.

It buys him vote. Rookie mistake though as a leader. Now the people will cry for more. The reserves are there for a reason. Not to play politics with.

Dipping into emergency reserves in non-emergency times is more a sign of incompetence and policy failure than leadership.
 
proverbial "drop in the bucket". the other part was Biden's unhinged charge that there is "price gouging" by oil companies

This is not correct.

The strategic petroleum reserve had been somewhat depleted during the Obama-Biden years.

President Trump saw a great buying opportunity to fill it back up when prices were very low and did so as a great businessman would.

We have the reserves we've got right now because of President Trump.....if only this shit for brains old man we have for a president now was even half as smart as Trump...we wouldn't be in the mess we're in now......

What is EIA? And What Does it Do?

The Energy Information Administration provides policy-independent data, forecasts, and analyses regarding energy and its interaction with the economy

The Energy Information Administration (EIA) is the statistical agency of the Department of Energy. It provides policy-independent data, forecasts, and analyses to promote sound policy making, efficient markets, and public understanding regarding energy, and its interaction with the economy and the environment.

But thanks for letting me know that I am obviously responding to a parody and/or POE account.

My point is that the claim the SPR was higher in the last administration is false. The image from the source article didn't connect correctly (or something).

Do you trust anything these days coming out of the government?

I don't. I'm not claiming either way, but the government is not to be trusted.

So you would believe they are faking the amount in the strategic oil reserves? For what purpose?

I don't know if they would or not. I just don't trust what they say at face value, as there are often lies involved.

Biden's energy secretary didn't know how many barrels of oil a day is consumed in the USA.

You would think she would have at least some interest in her "no show" job.
