Nothing "happens". At some point the government will just have to start buying back oil at a massive loss. At this point Biden is just worried about the next month until the election, after that it's irrelevant if oil prices rise.

The Fed doesn't control the SPR, the President does.

Market manipulation….trying to get gasoline prices down for the mid-term elections by squandering $30+B of taxpayer money. Way to go Joe.
