Trump the Conqueror got $1B worth of advice, from US big oil, two years ago: take other people's production offline, so other countries need to bid against the US for USian oil. Big oil reaps fantastic profits. He clearly cares not one whit what Proles pay for gas. After all, Proles are nothing but expendable meat. We are talking PROFITS here.

What happens when enough production comes online such that the price of gas stabilizes in a few weeks?

latimes.com - Sable offshore corp begins pumping oil off california coast

Oil is flowing through Santa Barbara’s controversial pipeline for the first time since 2015, after Trump invoked the Defense Production Act to override state regulators.
California officials are fighting back, with state parks demanding Sable Offshore immediately remove the pipeline and threatening legal action within 10 days.
Sable and the Trump administration argue the restart is essential for national security and will boost California’s domestic oil supply by approximately 17%.

50k more barrels a day. It's a start. The sky-is-falling crowd will whine that we need to up production by orders of magnitude more than that and to that I say, patience.
