DAY 436: Biden taps oil reserve

President Biden announces the largest-ever oil reserve release in hopes of driving down gas prices after the U.S. banned Russian oil imports. Meantime, Russia raises the stakes in an energy standoff by insisting European leaders pay for gas in rubles only. Plus, Russian troops hand control of the Chornobyl nuclear plant back to Ukraine. And Jared Kushner virtually meets with the Jan. 6th committee for more than six hours. Philip Rucker, Gen. Barry McCaffrey, Eddie Fishman, Katie Benner, Barbara McQuade, Heidi Heitkamp and Marsha Ramsey join.
