Good day all. As we now know, Dementia Joe Biden sold oil from the United States Strategic Petroleum Reserve to the People’s Republic of China instead of directly to American energy companies. He also sold it at a loss. Now the Republicans in Congress are starting to look into this.
Of course, one of the problems with doing this sort of investigation is that the Republicans do not control the Congress. The Democrats do and the last thing they want is anyone digging into their “President’s” activities. In fact, they have been actively suppressing anything that makes Biden look bad, instead concerning themselves with “Getting Trump!” even though he has been out of office for a year and a half. This is only going to slow the GOP down a bit. Here are the details from the Washington Free Beacon:
Congressional Republicans launched a formal investigation into the Biden administration on Friday following its decision to sell a Chinese state-controlled company nearly one million barrels of oil from the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve, according to a copy of the probe obtained exclusively by the Washington Free Beacon.
The probe comes on the heels of a Free Beacon report detailing how the Biden administration sold China oil from the U.S. reserves amid a crippling energy crisis that has sent consumer prices skyrocketing. Rep. Pat Fallon (R., Texas), a member of the House Oversight and Reform Committee, is spearheading the investigation along with six of his GOP colleagues, including Reps. Ronny Jackson (Texas) and Ralph Norman (S.C.).
Fallon and his colleagues are demanding the White House turn over a trove of documents detailing the behind-the-scenes decision-making about these sales, as well as others potentially made to “foreign adversaries.”
Yeah, that won’t happen. Corrupt tyrants gotta be corrupt and tyrannical after all. This is the same bunch that has been working to bury Dementia Joe’s “Fair Haired Boy” Hoovernose and his funneling payola to the “Big Guy.”
The Biden administration came under intense criticism earlier this month after it was disclosed that it sold Chinese state-controlled energy firm Unipec 950,000 oil barrels from the U.S. reserves, which historically are tapped in response to emergencies.
Considering that Dementia Joe’s poll numbers have cratered, selling the oil to China was considered to be an emergency. Had to make it look like they were actually doing something.
The White House claimed the sale would “address the pain Americans are feeling at the pump” and “help lower energy costs.” But critics say the administration is exploiting the reserves to appease foreign countries while it cuts production domestically to appease the Democratic Party’s far left flank.
The entire energy problem we have today is directly due to the incompetence and stupidity of Joe Bumbles Dementia Biden. We went to Energy independent to that useless git begging OPEC for more oil.
“Your policies are harming American energy independence and benefiting our adversaries,” the lawmakers write. “Draining the [U.S. reserves] to historic lows for the sake of political expediency … threatens the national security of our nation, and contemplates no long-term strategy to ensure the energy independence of the United States.”
Information included in the Republican probe shows that the White House sold China 2.5 million barrels in October and another 1.5 million in November. Millions more were sold to other foreign countries during this time period. Amid these sales, the U.S. reserves dipped below 500 million barrels—the lowest level since 1986.
There is a reason for this. Several reasons I think. First and foremost is destroying the United States as a free, sovereign nation. Second, Biden needed produce something of value to the Red Chinese since they were nice enough to pay him through Hoovernose. (10 percent apparently of everything the Crackhead brought in)
China, on the other hand, has around 926 million barrels stored as it continues to import illicit Russian and Iranian oil to offset the rising price of crude. Current projections show the U.S. reserves “will be drained to approximately 130 million barrels by 2031,” according to figures included in the probe.
Oh I think that Dementia Joe, or at least the people who are actually running things, *cough Obama cough* *Cough Soros cough* will manage to completely drain the SPR long before then.
“The American people can’t afford to put gas in their tanks and our Strategic Petroleum Reserve is at its lowest level in decades, yet Joe Biden is wasting our money and resources by sending oil that’s intended for emergencies to the Chinese Communist Party,” Jackson told the Free Beacon. “Helping our adversaries and setting America up for failure in the event of a major disaster or national security threat is no way for an American president to govern. Taxpayers deserve better.”
There is a term for what Biden and the others in his maladministration are doing. It’s called “Treason.” Sadly, it isn’t prosecutable in the United States since we have a constitutional definition of the crime, and what the Progressives Liberal Democratic Communazis are doing doesn’t meet the definition.
The Republican lawmakers instructed the White House to provide them with internal documents related to the sell-off of America’s strategic oil reserves. This includes “all documents and communications, from January 20, 2021, to present” that relates to U.S. crude “being shipped to foreign adversaries—specifically, the People’s Republic of China.” The White House must also furnish in-depth information about China’s own oil reserves, as well as any draft plans to potentially replenish America’s stockpile.
With regard the plans to replace the oil they’ve stolen sold, there aren’t any. That would require drilling in this country and the maladministration’s plans have been to shut down all oil production in the United States.
“Our strategic reserves are for national security, not to satisfy global oil markets, and certainly not to cover for President Biden’s failed energy policies,” Norman told the Free Beacon. “This administration owes our nation immediate answers to these questions.”
And those answer will be forthcoming in 2025 from the second Trump administration. (Or the first DeSantis administration if the Greatest President in the 21st century, to date, chooses not to run) For now, you will get nothing from the most incompetent and corrupt administration in American history, at least not until 2023 when the new Senate and House Republican majorities take over and start issuing subpoenas.
Even then, expect stonewalling and lies from the pack of crooks, liars and traitors currently running things. You may need to actually impeach and convict that senile idiot. (I won’t hold my breath) At least you are making the effort, unlike that failure, Trey Gowdy. All he did was show that Obama was a crook, but didn’t do anything with it. Hopefully, the new members will do a lot better.
