BAAJA is an opportunity for Democrats to return to holistic energy policy that balances reliability, affordability, and sustainability.
@IrvingSwisher and I wrote about it for The Argument.
Had a blast chatting with @nukebarbarian about the SPR and the new @employamerica plan to turn a profitable trade into long-term security.
Available wherever you get your podcast.
One SPR fact that is still too underappreciated: DOE is going to be refilling the SPR with approximately 150-160mm barrels (because Trump conducted exchanges for 133mm bbl, not releases).
It takes longer to fill than it does to drain so the refill will likely run through at least 2029.
So any fanciful ideas about "refilling with Venezuelan oil" are simply not possible. Refill capacity is likely to be taken up for the next 3-4 years.
