GOP Rep. Cammack: Biden’s Risking National Security by Draining a Third of Oil Reserves to Save His Poll Numbers
breitbart ^ | IAN HANCHETT31 Mar 2022

Posted on 03/31/2022 10:36:55 PM PDT by MarvinStinson

Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL) stated that President Joe Biden’s plan to release oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve is designed to save the president’s poll numbers and will endanger national security without lowering gas prices.

Cammack said, “I think that they are doing this because they are so concerned about Biden’s sinking, plummeting poll numbers that they are desperate for anything. … We need to stop telling our adversaries exactly what we are going to do and what we’re not going to do. And this move to basically drain a third of our strategic oil reserves, this is ludicrous. This is putting our national security at risk.”

She added, “What they’re doing with the strategic oil reserve, it’s not going to lower the prices. It’s not meeting the demand. It’s putting us at risk. And the thing that we need to do is get the domestic production back up. But they need to release all the red tape that they have tied our producers up with. That is what is going to get us going again. We’re sitting on it. We’re standing on it. But all they have done is deflect, redirect, and misdirect the American people.”

Doing it on purpose to risk security.

Their policy is anything that weakens the U.S.

Trump filled it up when oil was CHEAP. Now this asshole is siphoning it off for nothing. It was not designed for broad universal national consumption. It’s for national security in times of WAR. Planes, ships and tanks don’t run on wind and solar power.

The Biden Oligarchy has raided our Treasury, emptied our prisons, weakened our infrastructure, underfunded out military, erased our southern border and allowed an “invasion” into our country. For the last 12 months, over 150,000 illegals have crossed our southern border UNINHIBITED......... ON D-Day, 156,000 troops landed in Normandy to defeat the Germans. Now, Biden is raiding our STRATEGIC oil reserves. None of these events are coincidences.

Joe Biden’s potato brain mouth is the biggest security risk this nation has ever had.

“His” policies are a close second. They are dismantling everything that makes a nation and society work.

Ask yourself how this advances Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum agenda and it’ll all make sense.

I remember how in February 1999, gas prices dropped as low as 86 cents a gallon. In my opinion, it’s no coincidence that Bill Clinton’s poll numbers were at their best during that time, though he was also being impeached. But even if Dementia Joe lets the whole reserve out now, I don’t think gas prices will come down to where they were in January 2021.

This is the kind of crap the Left has gotten away with forever.

Pedo Joe offers a relief from high gas taxes, BUT IT IS THE WORST POSSIBLE SOLUTION.

Then he stands back as says...”well, I released more gas...”

WHICH WAS NOT THE PROBLEM IN THE FIRST PLACE.

And they get away with their lies.

Biden has already sold off a bunch of our strategic reserve on us.

He and the DS cabal controlling him are hell bent on destroying us.

I thought the Natl reserve was crude in the ground
not refined product. So wouldn’t it have to
be shipped to a refinery first before we actually
had more gas supply?

This whole electric car BS is baffling to me.
Most people want SUV, pickups and Vans and
electric ones are not available for what people
can pay. An $70k vehicle is more than we can pay.
Plus the fact Lithium, boron, nickel are in short
supply to make the batteries. Also, the American
power grid uses a lot of coal fired generation
of electricity how is that green.

Moreover, where are the highway charging stations
and in California they have summer brownouts now
without having to charge electric vehicles, what
the heck happens when millions of vehicles
need to be charged?

Joe has not thought this thru.

Yup! Damaging national security is a feature, not a bug.

Honestly, I fear that we may nor survive to January 2023, never mind January 2025.

Somebody must have been reading comments here on FR. LOL.

The GOP has to take action and steps NOW, before midterms and not just use it to make campaign noise.

This regime must be stopped!
