the administration has one hundred million barrels of crude oil and diesel coming to this country from our European ally

Why we checked itA specific quantity (100 million barrels) of oil and diesel from a European ally is a concrete, verifiable claim about a specific supply deal or policy action
What we foundThe 100 million barrel figure is real and widely reported, but the claim misstates its nature: it is a G7 coordinated global market release from stockpiles — not a transfer from a single 'European ally' specifically destined for the United States.
