Just great.

Easiest way to cripple the US military: cut off their fuel supply.

Gee, I’m shocked Biden would do this. /heavy sarc

[butlerweave]

Drill some holes and fill it from that at cost ,LOL

[MurrietaMadman]

Weaponized absurdity. Learn to recognize it.

[Herodes]

In 2020 Trump proposed to purchase 77 million barrels of oil @ $24 per barrel.

The Democrats stopped the purchase...calling it a “bail-out” for big oil.

So now...Biden will spend $79 - $84 per barrel.

The Democrats are “Real Men of Genius”...

[Pajamajan]

Brilliant.

“Amateurs study tactics…Professionals study logistics.” General George C. Marshal.

This administration from the first played with political tactics without concern for the impact on and of logistics. Now it is biting them in the ass…or our asses as they never seem to be punished for their transgressions.

Hell, even Ray Charles saw this coming and he is blind…and dead!

Have to do whatever it takes to get re-elected! /s

So ... he knows he will lose the election ... which will be a major setback for all the deep state nefarious plans ... which will force them to move their final conflict timeline up ... which means they need to quickly handicap US military forces?

Lucky for all of us there is world peace including in the Middle East at this time. Otherwise oil producing and shipping regions could cause a need for our strategic reserve which Biden depleted. /S

You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed.

[SaveFerris]

[because he’s incompetent.]

No, because he’s purposely crippling the country.

IOW, continuing the destruction of Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

I remember reading of Obama buying high dollar synthetic fuel for trucks in Afghanistan.

Maybe Biden is forcing the same or making the military ALL ELECTRIC.

I drove past a gas station this morning and it’s $3.969 a gallon. I haven’t seen that for some time, but here it is again,under Biden AGAIN……

[eyeamok]

To bad we don’t have any real Americans in Congress putting forth legislation abolishing the Dept of Education and use those funds to replace the oil Biden gave away.

😊👍

The justification? A hollow promise of streamlining operations to focus on “key strategic areas.

Xi calls Putin it’s about time we make our move.

[RetiredTexasVet]

Take the money out of their salaries to refill it.

[wardamneagle]

This was purposely done folks.....surprise !

I drove past a gas station this morning and it’s $3.969 a gallon.

Will never see that here in California, where it's between $5 to $6 a gallon. A cousin was visiting SF from Philadelphia last week, and he was amazed that we put up with paying 5 and a half bucks to gas up when he saw the gas station signs. That's why I drive an EV locally in these Biden times. It hurts if your fill-up costs over $80.
