America has only 25 days of diesel supply thanks to Joe Biden’s economic crippling policies. A diesel fuel crisis will cripple the US.
PJ Media shared the news over the weekend. The fuel that is used to transport US goods across the country is in a crisis situation:
.... Snip.....
“The US has just 25 days of diesel supply, the lowest since 2008, according to the Energy Information Administration. At the same time, the four-week rolling average of distillates supplied, a proxy for demand, rose to its highest seasonal level since 2007.”
The Biden administration has remained strangely silent, probably hoping that the dismal news doesn’t hit the mainstream because it’s a total political timebomb waiting to go off, especially as the midterm elections are so close.
Bloomberg noted:
The diesel crunch comes just weeks ahead of the midterm elections and has the potential to drive up prices for consumers who already view inflation and the economy as a top voting issue. Retail prices have been steadily climbing for more than two weeks. At $5.324 a gallon, they’re 50% higher than this time last year, according to AAA data.
Notably, National Economic Council Director Brian Deese recently commented on the emerging crisis. Deese said diesel inventories are “unacceptably low” and added that “all options are on the table,” whatever that means.
The American trucking industry is very important to this country and truckers rely on diesel to run their trucks.

Maybe we’ll have to go back to using the railroads more. Now who owns the railroads??
I can’t believe 81 million meatheads in this country love the hell out of Jo Jo because he is a beloved old pedophile who gets out of bed every morning only to insult them.
*PING*
I don’t think the Socialist Democrats thought this through to the logical conclusion.
Won’t they need diesel-fueled cattle cars to get we Deplorables to the train stations and then on to the re-education camps?
*SNORT*
(Maybe we’ll have to go back to using the railroads more)
And those locomotive engines run off what?
Also, for the leftists that can’t afford an EV, gas stations are refueled by what kind of tanker? Diesel.
Okay, we are down to 25 days of diesel supply.
What is the normal number of days of diesel supply during October?
I’m sure the demand of diesel from farmers is lower during the cold months.
I feel like the title of the article is alarmist
wood....screw the owls...clean our forests up
Freight trains run on diesel.
The insane timetable for this has to be *this* winter. After the elections, a Republican congress will not stand for any more of these globalist, national-suicide politics from the zombie-in-chief. So they must guarantee a national collapse, with widespread food and fuel shortages, until they are kicked out.
The railroad strike was too soon, as the last major RR strike was anticipated to cost $500b *a day*. Which is what they want to see, since most trains run on diesel.
The Republicans had better hope for a huge majority in both houses, so they can overturn vetoes from the puppeteers operating the undead POTUS.
Yesterday in PA, regular was $3.75 and Diesel was $5.85.
DE - Regular $3.59 and Diesel was $5.49. (Wilmington)
The “Humble Man from Nebraska”…
From May of this year:
…Several refiners are now being reconfigured to make biofuel, which has also reduced capacity...
COULD cripple the economy? No Diesel - No Trucks - No Trucks No anything in the stores including Food.
Just in time to ruin Thanksgiving - Thank You Branden!
Hopium and Changeium.
