Doesn’t even matter if it’s dangerous to our national security. It’s what happens when headline chasing blue anon conspiracy theorists and Brandon fanbois bunch together for a short term fix to gas prices. Now that it’s mostly all gone the party is over. Rest assure though they’ll still be patting themselves on the back while at the same time blaming someone else or some made-up boogie man.

If ya think about it the real traitors to democracy and our nation are those politicians and party fanbois who placed our national security at risk draining the strategic oil reserves for the sake of party politics and looking good on camera.

Maintaining the Strategic Petroleum Reserve is an important national security tool to combat disruptions in the oil market. The reserve is intended to be America’s insurance policy against a severe oil supply disruption or a severe economic disruption. We strongly oppose the use of oil stockpiles to affect gasoline prices. Market interference makes us all more vulnerable and is counterproductive to long-term adjustments in the marketplace. A better solution is to enhance, not stifle or shut-down, America’s leadership in natural gas and oil production.
If the government regularly released SPR oil for sale each time domestic fuel prices rose, we could reduce our ability to address a situation with the potential to seriously injure the U.S. economy. In addition, a draw-down of the reserve might not have the desired result.
Over the past few days, several Members of Congress have urged the White House and the Department of Energy to sell oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). They seek crude oil sales from the Reserve to relieve the recent spikes in gasoline prices, not because there is a crude oil supply emergency, but more so a political problem for them.

I specifically said "well meaning", how can you think I meant good ol' Brandon? LOL I meant he who shall not be mentioned. He who shall not be mentioned did try, and they denied him of course.

Somebody should remind liberal loon Democrats walls don’t work.

And how is winning four congressional seats to "take back" the house going to help when the dumass democrats were the ones preventing the last president from securing the border? Wouldn't they just perpetuate the same old democrat b.s. that started this mess to begin with?

Democrat Representative Jamaal Bowman hammers President Joe Biden over the disastrous border crisis that has made its way to New York.

Pretty hilarious how the left’s position on the border immediately changes when they actually have to deal with it themselves.

Bowman specifically said Biden was making Democrats look bad.

“We need leadership from President Biden. Period. Democrats are looking bad right now, uh, in New York State, and that's unacceptable when we have to win at least four congressional seats to take back the house. So hopefully the president's listening.”

Wannabe Bannana Republic Democrat Dictator in Chief Biden snapped at Peter Doocy for asking about his roughly 20 speakerphone calls to dinners or meetings with his crackhead son's foreign associates.

What was most interesting is what came next...

Doocy said that the White House called him as soon as he made it to his car to refute the specifics of the allegations on discussing business. The use of White House staff to repeat these positions could magnify the problems for Biden.

Dictator Biden and his loony blue anon extremist ‘get trump’ kooks

In another lie Biden told when confronted about his crackhead sons dealings with the communist Chinese. Was when he defended the crackhead by accusing Trump as the only one who made money colluding with China.

It’s been revealed though that not only did the Bannana Republic dictator Biden and his crackhead son have dealings with Chinese Communist Government controlled oil companies. They sold them 50 million barrels from our strategic oil reserves even as China continued to stockpile their own strategic reserves

Uh oh ... oil prices up 24% in 6 weeks. Can't sell more from the Strategic Reserves because wannabe banana republic dictator Sleepy Joe drained it for a quick fix to make the party look good and enrich his Chinese Communist buddies, environmental extremists and crackhead son instead of tackling the core problem. So much for our national security.

Guess we need to enslave more children in Africa to dig the cobalt to support your poorly though out stupid green new deals. I’d expect bacon prices to start rising along with the price of fuel again.




We now return the kook fringe democrats to your regularly scheduled broadcast of how Trump is indicted for being a potty mouth and how all the current problems are just a Biden rope-a-dope to fool republicans.

There are more serious problems than the problem with former President.
Someone wrote as an answer to one of my post.

No doubt that he is right, therefore I ask:

What do you see as a serious problem in your country USA ?

The intensional Division of the Citizens by both Partys.
I've lost friends that I've known for 60 years over that.

I see Brother against Brother, Father against Son, Neighbor against Neighbor.
It's like the 1860's all over again. Just waiting for the 1st engagement of Armies.

Inflation

Deficit spending

A sitting president publicly declaring he is doing everything in his power to prevent a political opponent from running. Absolute silence from the public and media.

An elected senator publicly declares on national news citizens should be afraid of the unelected intelligence community. Absolute silence from the public and media.

The nurtured divisive nature of team politics and political spectacle over some of the most pointless fringe drama shyte I’ve ever witnessed.

All the bandwidth and massive amounts of electrical power wasted from fanboi stories about low hanging fruit and Biden rope-a-dopes.

That’s good news

I don’t care if it’s Trump, Biden, the crackhead a senator a congressman, an appointed official or a hired lackey. If they are caught doing something against the law then I hope investigators do their sworn duty investigate the matter and if found guilty drop the f’in hammer and drop it hard.

I’m tired of the long drawn political spectacle and meaningless whataboutisms. Let justice be swift.

AMEN
