That is because this isn’t our war, they are distracting us and using Ukraine to further their agenda.

If they were serious about war, these things would not be happening.

Beats having to pump our own oil. Symbolism over substance.

“A useless and dangerous attempt to counter the effect of supply shortages that he helped to create.”
~~~
“The world is at risk of escalation of international conflict, and potential war, but Biden chooses not to ramp up our production of oil, but to deplete our strategic reserves. What a tool.”
***************

Agree. See link in post 4-— Joe Manchin...A national security issue.

i saw that too. IMO, this “quiet” leak is a toothless sound byte. No change in the Biden Adm hamstringing US oil production.

yep...a yummy sound byte for the ill-informed. Is there any crisis that will push Biden Adm to open up the US spigots?

Meanwhile he (the US, in general) is still buying more than half a million barrels a day, from Russia.

This is all idiocy. The strategic reserve is supposed to be there to see us through emergencies, not score political points for a couple of days.

We live in a kakistocracy - kleptocracy.
