Biden Energy Sec. Granholm admits she does not know U.S. oil consumption rate when pressed by reporter | Fox Business

Seriously? How do you NOT know this? This is not some obscure little statistic. It’s asking a dietician, “Is fast food good for me?” The level of incompetence in this administration from top to bottom is just plain scary.

Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm on Tuesday admitted that she did not know how many barrels of oil the U.S. consumes per day when a reporter suggested that the 50 million barrels the Energy Department plans to release would last less than three days. Granholm during a White House briefing Tuesday, outlined Biden’s strategy to release the barrels of oil currently held in the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve in order to maintain “adequate supply” amid global shortages and skyrocketing gas prices.
