With energy prices putting the squeeze on household budgets throughout the country, the Biden Administration announced plans in April to tap the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve to lower gas prices.
At the time, a Department of Energy news release said this action would “address the pain Americans are feeling at the pump as a result of Putin’s Price Hike and to help lower energy costs. That includes President [Joe] Biden authorizing the release of 1 million barrels per day from the SPR for the next six months.”
As the amount of oil in the SPR has fallen to its lowest level since 1986, a Department of Energy spokesperson told Reuters, “The SPR remains a critical energy security tool to address global crude oil supply disruptions.”
Lest you think the administration had only American consumers in mind, Reuters reported on Wednesday that over 5 million barrels of oil were exported to Europe and Asia in June.
The story gets worse.
On Thursday, the Washington Free Beacon reported that 950,000 barrels were sold to a CCP-owned gas company called Unipec, the trading arm of the China Petrochemical Corporation. This company is also known as Sinopec.
There are several issues with this deal. First, in April, “six people” told Reuters that Sinopec agreed not to initiate any new contracts to purchase Russian oil, as per western sanctions. The report said Sinopec would be honoring existing contracts, “but avoiding new ones despite steep discounts.”
Predictably, it appears that the company has continued to buy oil from Russia.

I know this is true If Trump had done this the rats would be on the Capitol steps holding a press conference demanding Trumps head. Not one elected GOP office holder has done a damn thing and the Capitol Steps are empty.
“The DOJ won’t touch the Biden’s, any more than it would a Clinton. Or Pelosi or Schumer. They’re in charge and can do whatever they want”.
But they’re sure to indict and prosecute Donald Trump if they can.
Seriously, our only option that will work is absolute horrific violence against the Democrats and the left. The voting process has been corrupted and many of our representatives are just as corrupt. I don’t see any way to reset this without violence.
So Biden sold our oil reserved for an emergency. When you sell something you get money. Where did the money go? I skimmed the article and didn’t see that information. Whose offshore account(s) are growing because of this?
If we had media worth a crap. Fraud would have been released at once. And he would have never taken office until it was looked into…
Isn’t this a old story. If not or if it’s true then what now. They won’t do anything until they want to. They is the the ones running the joint..
“Reserve should be used solely for responding to the types of severe oil supply interruptions presently contemplated in the Energy Policy and Conservation Act.”
Pres. Ford created this to be used domestically. If sent to a foreign source, administrative officials should be hanged, drawn, and quartered for treason starting at the top then going through down the COC of the Secretary of Energy and Interior.... (In Minecraft)
Fraud and the Strategic Reserve is an old, old story. Anyone remember Occidental Petroleum and AlGore Senior?
DEMOCRATS ARE LAWLESS BECAUSE REPUBLICANS ARE BALLLESS!!!
What’s the skim for the Bidens?
“Paging Bob Woodward.”
Phony prick.
When the time is right mate and we'll know it.😎👍
In a moment of sloppiness
way back in 08
If only we had an honest DOJ.
Nothing will happen... I don’t accept that but that’s exactly what will happen.. nothing.
Had this been Trump, he would have been impeached within 48 hours.
With Meritles Garland as AG, the Biden’s can pretty much do anything they want. The sky is the limit.
But guess what, somewhere in a nasement bunker are a few good men and women who are logging all of this mafia lucre.And should the Maga movemnet bring about Republican control of the Senate and the House, there are a number of key areas of constitutional violation which will , unlike the attempted Trump impeachments be solidly grounded in fact.
The facts constitute “high crimes and misdemeanors ,” of both Senile Joe and Kamala Harris, and unlike the lefty Dems did, we will not have to make up a damn thing.
Articles of impeachment concerning bith Biden and Harris will be drafted and with any luck at all, we may be rid of both Biden and Harris, with Republican congressional Officers serving an interim presidency until 2024.
As William Shakespeare had Lady McBeth said repeatedly, “ Out, out damn spot!” No amount of wash will ever clean up Biden and Harris from their nefarious mafioso activities during their sordid tenures as President and Vice President, the worst in US history.
Biden proved his green plan is pure BS the real agenda is cripple the country for a comply or die deal.
