Energy Secretary Granholm Consulted Top Chinese Energy Official Before Draining U.S. Strategic Oil Reserve

The Biden administration’s top energy official held multiple talks with China National Energy Administration chairman Zhang Jianhua days before the United States moved to release oil from its strategic reserve in 2021.
 
According to internal Energy Department calendars obtained by Fox News, Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm spoke with Zhang one-on-one multiple times in meetings that had not previously been made known to the public. Granholm and Zhang met on November 19 and November 21, 2021, just days prior to the administration's announcement that they would be releasing oil from the strategic reserve on November 23. The timing of Granholm's meetings has critics questioning China's level of influence over the Biden administration's energy policy.

"Secretary Granholm's multiple closed-door meetings with a CCP-connected energy official raise serious questions about the level of Chinese influence on the Biden administration’s energy agenda," Americans for Public Trust executive director Caitlin Sutherland told Fox News.

The Energy Department said in a statement to Fox News that the meetings were part of the Biden administration's efforts to combat climate change but did not specify what was discussed.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Biden energy secretary torched after Fox News Digital reveals secret talks with top CCP official
Story by Thomas Catenacci •
 

Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm was heavily criticized Friday after a Fox News Digital report showed she spoke twice with a top Chinese government official before the White House announced plans to tap emergency oil stocks.

According to internal Department of Energy (DOE) calendars obtained by Americans for Public Trust, Granholm consulted China National Energy Administration Chairman Zhang Jianhua, a senior member of the Chinese Communist Party, Nov. 19, 2021, and two days later on Nov. 21, 2021.

On Nov. 23, 2021, the White House announced a release of 50 million barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR).

"Before telling the American people of their plans to undermine our energy security by draining the SPR at record rates for political purposes before the midterm elections, Secretary Granholm reportedly first secretly consulted with the Chinese Communist Party," House Energy and Commerce Committee Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers said in a statement.
