What Biden's shock-and-awe campaign means for high gas prices
CNN
President Joe Biden is taking a go-big-or-go-home approach toward easing the supply shock caused by Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Biden on Thursday announced a release of a record-shattering 180 million barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, the nation's emergency stockpile of oil.
The staggering size of the release -- more than triple the prior record, set just four months ago -- is aimed at cushioning the loss of Russian oil sidelined since the invasion began.

A federal judge on Friday blocked President Donald Trump’s administration from enforcing most of his executive order on elections against the vote-by-mail states Washington and Oregon, in the latest blow to Trump’s efforts to require documentary proof of citizenship to vote and to require that all ballots be received by Election Day.

A Border Patrol agent shot two people in Portland, Oregon, during a traffic stop after authorities said they were associated with a Venezuelan gang, another incident in a string of confrontations with federal authorities that have left Americans frustrated with immigration enforcement during the Trump administration.
