PUMP PANIC: Biden prepares to tap diesel reserve as pressure mounts to bring prices down

as a result of strong consumer demand, trillions in government stimulus and disruptions in the global supply chain. The Russian war in Ukraine has also magnified the problem: Diesel inventories in the Northeast have plunged to record lows in recent weeks in part because of the conflict.

Alarmed by the drop in inventories in the Northeast and rising prices, the Biden team started conducting internal briefings and consulted with fuel retailers, as well as, to better understand the situation, the White House official said. By comparison, the White House has already tapped the nation's stockpile of emergency oil, called the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, several times to help reduce rising energy prices. The reserve currently contains 420 million barrels of crude oil, even after the recent releases.

Biden finding out the American works on Diesel instead of tweets 🤣

Don't our military vehicles use diesel?

One wrong & failed policy after another! Instead of tapping reserves, do what 45 did and let US become energy independent once again!

Thank you! Push large oil pocketing millions while we struggle!

It worked so well when they tapped the gasoline reserves. Prices went down a few cents for a few days and then went up again. Don't they have to replenish the reserves? Won't they have the repurchase at higher prices?

Boy, you're full of solutions.

China Offshore Corporation begins deep water drilling in the Gulf of Mexico The China Offshore Corporation will invest up to US$ 289 million in a 4 to 10-year period to explore block 1 of the deep waters “Lost Fold Belt” in the Gulf of Mexico,

There are oil and gas companies that have hundreds of previously issued permits to drill which have been issued over the years, but these companies have chosen not to drill on many of these permits, primarily due to economic reasons. Meanwhile oil companies profits are way up.

Drill Baby Drill......that's how you fix it JOE

Yeah that helped so much on gas prices didn’t it Intentionally draining our country’s reserves!!!

A band-aid for a gaping wound. It doesn’t fix the problem.

He should nationalize the oil industry and arrest and jail the price gouging oil executives and owners for this terrorist attack against the American people.

This administration is arguably fake ... But, if not, they are clear in their goal ... Destroy America, so that we would never be a world super power ever again ... And, depopulate the old, weak, and make everyone infertile ...

What to send to Ukraine?

The only way to bring down prices is for domestic producers to increase production. This admin needs to remove the boot from their collective throat.

Lol. The only 'panic' is among Fox viewers. Because you are *telling* them to panic. The rest of us understand that Ukraine is fighting for OUR freedom, too, and freedom isn't free.

That isn’t going to help at all

Too soon. Needs to wait til September to help the mid terms
