Fox News reports that drawdowns made to the
U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) have left
the emergency stockpile at its lowest level since 1983.
.
High market prices have reportedly delayed
efforts made to replenish the reserve, as Israel's war against Hamas could destabilize oil supplies worldwide.

High market prices have reportedly delayed
efforts made to replenish the reserve, as Israel's war against Hamas could destabilize oil supplies worldwide.
.
According to data from the Energy Information
Administration (EIA), the SPR had approximately
351.3 million barrels of oil as of September 29.
.
Fox News reports that for most
of the last decade, the emergency stockpile
has stood at over 650 million barrels.
According to an EIA estimate, the U.S. consumes
an estimated 20 million barrels of oil per day.
.
This means that the SPR would be depleted after
just 17 days if America could no longer access "new domestic production or imports," Fox News reports.
.
Fox News reports that the historical average since
1990 has seen the emergency stockpile maintain
approximately 33 days worth of oil reserves.
.
In 1975, the SPR was created under
the Energy Policy and Conservation Act following
an oil embargo by OPEC that lasted from 1973 to 1974.
Americaâs SPR remains the largest in
the world and stands ready to deliver
on its mission to provide refiners
and the American public relief
in the event of supply disruptions, United States Department of Energy, via Fox Business.
Initially, the SPR was intended to
have a one billion barrel capacity,
but it has never reached that level.
Fox News reports that SPR supplies are held at four
locations in salt caverns located thousands of feet
below ground to prevent leaking oil from seeping out.
U.S. President Donald Trump has declared he will only accept the total dismantlement of Iranâs nuclear program. Speaking on NBCâs Meet the Press, Trump dismissed the need for Iranâs civilian nuclear power, citing its vast oil reserves. This comes after talks with Iran were indefinitely postponed, amid rising tensions in the Middle East. Trump warned that a nuclear Iran could lead to global destruction. Meanwhile, Iran continues to deny pursuing weapons and accuses the U.S. of provocation, while Israel threatens retaliation over a Houthi missile strike.

Panic erupted at Israelâs Ben Gurion Airport as a Houthi missile struck near the main terminal access road. Security footage captured civilians fleeing in terror as the explosion injured at least three and halted all air traffic. Airport authorities suspended takeoffs and landings while defense forces scrambled to secure the site. Netanyahu called an emergency meeting after the Iron Dome failed to intercept the missile. Foreign airlines began suspending service to Israel as fear of further strikes grew. The attack signals a new phase in the regional conflict, directly threatening civilian infrastructure.

Trump mocked the Houthis during a press event, defending Fox Newsâ Pete Hegseth in the process. Trump, known for his blunt and often provocative remarks, sarcastically suggested that journalists ask the Houthis about Hegsethâs well-being, referencing a conflict involving the group. The remark sparked a mix of reactions, as Trump once again found himself at the center of attention for his unconventional and provocative approach to foreign affairs

Trump-Putin's 2-Hour Call Had No Mention of Ukraine Aid? In a high-stakes two-hour phone call between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, the U.S. and Russian leaders discussed a range of issues, but Trump insists Ukraine aid was never brought up. Despite the Kremlin later demanding an end to foreign military aid to Ukraine as a condition for a ceasefire, Trump told Fox News that Putin never personally raised the issue during their conversation. The call, which took place on March 18, saw Putin agree to a 30-day pause on attacks on Ukraineâs energy infrastructure but reject the broader U.S.-proposed ceasefire. Trump described the discussion as "a great call", focusing instead on trade, U.S.-Russia relations, and rare earth minerals.

Trump has doubled down on his support for tariffs, calling them the "greatest thing" America has ever done. Speaking aboard Air Force One, Trump claimed that tariffs will "make the U.S. rich again" while auto companies are opening new plants due to his policies. However, he refused to rule out a potential recession when pressed in a Fox News interview. The remarks come as the U.S. imposes steep new tariffs on Chinese, Canadian, and Mexican imports, while Beijing retaliates with fresh taxes on American agricultural goods

The Trump administrationâs new âCatch & Revokeâ visa policy allows authorities to Strip foreign nationalsâincluding studentsâof their visas for even minor infractions. Introduced by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, the directive cracks down on foreign students allegedly supporting Hamas or joining campus protests. Civil liberties groups are alarmed, calling the rule vague and prone to abuse. Legal challenges are already underway, while Trumpâs allies claim it's vital for national security. Universities, meanwhile, are facing new scrutiny over foreign funding and political ties under expanded America First reforms.

A chilling new IDF investigation confirms what many fearedâIsraeli troops abandoned civilians on Zikim Beach as Hamas launched a deadly attack on October 7. Seventeen Israelis were killed after Hamas fighters landed via speedboats, with Golani Brigade troops failing to engage. The probe cites ethical and professional failures, exposing a 40-hour communication breakdown between forces. Only one navy patrol boat resisted. Community defense squads fought back alone. As shocking images and reports emerge, Israel faces painful questions about its military preparedness and the price civilians paid for that failure.
