White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain was mocked Thursday for celebrating the Biden administration taking an unprecedented amount of oil out from the federal emergency reserve.
Klain tweeted out a Yahoo News article reporting on the president’s attempt to lower gas prices, with an all-caps caption, "HISTORIC."
However, critics had a different take on the administration further depleting the nation's emergency oil reserves.
"You guys are actually bragging about having to release record amounts of oil from the strategic reserves," Stephen Miller, contributing editor at The Spectator, tweeted.

Conservative commentator RB Pundit expressed frustration in his tweet that read, "This. Is. Not. What. The. Strategic. Oil. Reserves. Is. For."

Depleting emergency supplies is historic? I doubt it.
It’s probably not even historic that Bidumb is depleting emergency supplies after causing the problem in the first place.
Hey! I have an idea to help the food shortage. Lets eat the seed corn instead of planting it!
Clinton used a lot of the SPR to keep prices down in 1996 for no apparent reason, other than the obvious one. I don’t think he even gave a reason and of course the media didn’t ask for one.
We could solve the infrastructure problem if everybody would stop driving.
Especially those big trucks driven by Trump-loving racists.
The honchos in the administration are simply just not very bright people and Klain is the chief airhead.
Good point! LOL... we are run by idiots.
I’m not familiar with the details of our oil reserves, but it sure sounds to me like the eating of your seed corn analogy. This is the third time Biden has done this......sure sounds pretty short sighted to me, but not surprising.
But how long will we be running?
It’s like giving a tool box to a bunch of chimpanzees and letting them work on the car.
“We’ll be walking from now on, kids!”
Everything the left does is ridiculous-
best video clip of the day (only about 10 seconds)- the congress fella addresses the ridiculous SC nominee statement

Good one.
Thanks for that.
I was looking for the Kaslin posts that usually appear from Townhall, which is great.
I haven’t seen her posts for the past few days.
I hope she is alright.
goggle SPR... all you need to know is there
