President Biden’s reckless draining of America’s Strategic Petroleum Reserve caused $100 million in damage to critical energy infrastructure. Energy Secretary Chris Wright exposed how Biden sold off nearly half the reserve to manipulate gas prices before the 2022 midterms. This political stunt weakened America’s security and left taxpayers footing the bill for repairs.
The Strategic Petroleum Reserve exists to protect America during true emergencies, not to help politicians win elections. Biden rushed 180 million barrels of oil onto the market, damaging salt caverns and pumping systems built in the 1970s. These facilities weren’t designed for rapid emptying, leaving them broken and unstable.
Biden’s team prioritized short-term price drops over long-term safety. They ignored warnings that draining the reserve too fast could collapse storage domes or wreck equipment. It’s like revving a rusty old car at full speed without maintenance – eventually, it breaks down. Now America’s emergency oil stockpile sits at dangerously low levels.
The administration’s refilling efforts can’t undo the harm. Repairing Biden’s mistakes will cost over $100 million – money that should’ve gone to roads, schools, or border security. This is what happens when leaders put politics above common sense.
Conservatives have warned for years that Biden’s war on American energy would backfire. His policies shut down oil drilling while begging foreign nations for fuel. Draining the reserve was a desperate attempt to hide his failures before voters went to the polls.
Hardworking Americans see through these tricks. Families struggling with inflation don’t want temporary price fixes – they want reliable energy independence. Biden sacrificed national security to score political points, leaving us vulnerable to global crises.
True patriots know strategic reserves aren’t campaign tools. They’re insurance against wars, disasters, or attacks that could cripple our economy. By wasting this resource, Biden showed he cares more about power than protecting the people.
This scandal proves why America needs leaders who respect our resources. Conservatives will rebuild the reserve, fix the damage, and restore energy policies that put America first. No more games – just common sense to keep our nation strong and secure.
