6 Million Barrels From Strategic Reserve to ChiComs

Given what we have in the White House, 18 US Code § 2381 makes for interesting reading:

Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

If selling 950,000 barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to our most formidable enemy as prices remain in the stratosphere and the ChiComs prepare to invade our ally Taiwan constitutes treason, what do you call doing the same with 6 million barrels?

The Daily Caller reports:

The Biden administration sold nearly six million barrels of oil from its Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) since July 2021 to a Chinese state-run energy firm, according to a Daily Caller News Foundation review of Department of Energy (DOE) data.

To add insult to injury,

Each barrel was sold on average for roughly $63, or over eight dollars less than the average price of oil per barrel that month.

The ChiComs really are getting their money’s worth out of the asset known as the Big Guy.

Meanwhile, the Biden Administration keeps a boot on the neck of the US energy industry to repress domestic production.

For commentary on the Biden Administration, we turn to Cicero:

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. - Marcus Tullius Cicero
