Republicans Slam Biden For Allowing SPR Oil To Be Shipped Overseas_我的网站

一 |     After a report came out Wednesday revealing that 5 million barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) had been sent to Asian and European countries, Republicans have been slamming President Biden for the mistake.,In late March, Biden announced that he was releasing 1 million barrels a day from the SPR for eight months, in an attempt to lower fuel prices for Americans that have been skyrocketing since the West issued harsh sanctions on Russia.,But, according to the report, instead of going to U.S. refineries, 5 million barrels of crude oil went to other countries, including China.,"The American people deserve answers as to why our emergency energy reserves are being sent to foreign adversaries like the Chinese Communist Party, compromising our energy security and national security," stated House Energy and Commerce Committee Member Cathy McMorris Rodgers in a statement to Fox News Digital.,Meanwhile, Michigan Representative Fred Upton, also a Republican, tweeted on Thursday that "The Strategic Petroleum Reserve is meant for national emergencies – not policy blunders,” while noting that the administration still has not answered his and McMorris Rodgers’ letter to Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm asking about how Biden’s release of the SPR may be emboldening China. That letter was sent in early June, before the report of the missing 5 million barrels was released by Reuters.,"What do they have to hide?" McMorris Rodgers asked when speaking about the letter.,Instead of tapping the SPR, Republicans would prefer Biden authorize increased domestic production of oil.,"President Biden needs to remember that our strategic energy reserves are for emergencies, not to cover up bad policies. America needs to flip the switch and increase our capacity to produce and refine oil here at home," McMorris Rodgers stated. "Now is not the time to use our strategic stockpile.",The SPR is currently at its lowest level since December 1985.,“After multiple failed attempts to lower U.S. gas prices by robbing our emergency strategic petroleum reserve, will someone please inform the decision makers at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue that we have much larger and more strategic undeveloped energy resources that can be extracted, processed, and utilized cleaner and safer right here at home benefiting American workers and businesses?" Bruise Westerman, a Republican representative from Arkansas told Fox News Digital.,Meanwhile, U.S. crude inventories have reached their lowest levels since 2004, even as refineries are running near their peak capacity. According to Reuters, U.S. Gulf Coast refineries are running at 97.9% utilization.,At a press conference on Tuesday, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said she was not aware of the report. At Thursday’s press conference, Jean-Pierre did not address the report but did she call Biden tapping the SPR “historic” and mentioned the administration’s call to issue a holiday on federal taxes on gasoline.。    按：被殖民、被屠杀、被抛弃，然后到独立、富强，并成功跻身发达国家行列，新加坡的发展史可堪称一部在混沌中重生的涅槃史，国民从迷茫自身归属到认可新加坡人的身份，也经历了重重波折。然而，正是这样的波折，造就了新加坡不同于其他国家的强大精神力和凝聚力，成就了新加坡的“逆袭”传奇。恰逢新加坡58周年国庆，以此文致敬始终奋勇向前的“新加坡人”。01.归属的混沌 不知前途的新加坡1965年，新加坡总理李光耀哭了，他担心这个从马来西亚独立出来的新生国家是否能够生存。那时候的新加坡，几乎没有自然资源、淡水缺乏、经济不发达，夹在马来族为主的伊斯兰国家马来西亚和以穆斯林为主的印尼之间。这个狭小的岛国，内外均危机重重，生存艰难。

二 | 新加坡的未来在哪里？新加坡国民的归属在哪里？在英语、汉语、马来语、泰米尔语混杂的狭小岛屿，新加坡的未来又在哪里？所有的问题，在当时甚至很长一段时间里，都没有答案，这个新生国家内忧外患重重，国民混沌迷茫。02.精神的混沌 不知“我是谁”的国民与国情相照应的，是国民精神的混沌。

三 | 生活在同一片区域同一个国度的国民，却没有“我是谁”的共同认知，或漠然地无视一切精神存在，或独立地强调自我的生存。精神的混沌，使新加坡的国民，没有国家的归属感，没有国民的凝聚力，国家发展步步维艰。03.混沌中重生 意识觉醒的新加坡如何让新加坡这个各种族人群混居、各语言混杂的新兴国家的国民在心理上认同一个国家、一个新加坡呢？痛定思痛之后，执政党提出了“共同价值观”，发布了《共同价值观白皮书》。

四 | 1988年开始的“国民意识周”主题活动、1990年学生社区服务计划、推行租屋混居政策、扶持跨种族跨帮派的社团等，共同发力，提高国民的归属感，让新加坡这个小岛国的国家凝聚力和战斗力迅速提升。“我是新加坡人”的意识不断提升，集体主义思想不断渗透，最终凝聚成一股强大的力量，助力着新加坡的发展速度不断加快。04.精神的崛起 独具特色的新加坡从四面野草丛生、蚊蝇遍地，发展到“美丽的花园城市”；从贫瘠狭小的岛蜕变到 “亚洲四小龙”之一。

五 | 新加坡以“国民共同价值观”为基础，形成了独具特色的新加坡精神。这种精神，如一支指挥棒，指引着新加坡人拧成一股绳，不屈不挠、奋勇向前、永不言弃。“黑暗尽处有曙光”。困境中不折不挠，逆流中凝聚团结，新加坡这个狭小的岛国，一次次让世界“刮目想看”，新加坡国民，在共同价值观的精神支柱下，在儒家精神的浸润下，持续散发着耀眼的光芒。
