I would also point out that Refineries typically shut down for maintenance in the Fall.
They've been running flat out all year long.

That could put an additional SQUEEZE on THE SUPPLY of diesel and jet fuel.

Now you're actively rooting for the suffering of Americans. Thank you for making it clear how badly you suffer from TDS that you wish pain on your fellow Americans.

Diesel is $5.94 per gallon in Kansas right now. It would have to go up quite a bit to get to your stretch goal.

---

Current Fuel Prices in Kansas

• Diesel Average: ~$6.20 per gallon (up from previous weeks).

How long to the point of no return?

---

Guess Democrats should have allowed more refineries to built. This isn't a diesel shortage, it's a production shortage.

People need to be held responsible for who they voted for.

In life, Ive found that a lot of people dont learn anything unless they experience a lot of pain or some kind of penalty.

Please recall that the Farmers were dumb enough to vote for him taking away their #1 market (China) not once, but twice. Now many are wondering why the Mango Messiah is trying to force them into BK again.

Maybe $10 diesel will force people to LEARN from their mistakes.

One can only hope.

The Houthis now control the Yemeni side of the Bab al-Mandab Strait.
This is the southern gateway to the Red Sea, and Suez Canal.

This is clearly problematic given that it reduces supplies thru a second major transit corridor.

In a statement Friday, the Houthi armed forces boasted of gains along the coast without mentioning the island, Mokha or the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. They vowed "escalation for escalation" in the confrontation with Saudi Arabia, while declaring that "maritime navigation is safe for all companies except for Saudi vessels."

Houthis are in last resort mode without Iran funneling them money

Cool story bro.
And completely void of reality.

Support your Bears, maybe we can talk after.

Nearly 7 months after attacking IRAN, the Mango Messiah says he's in "decision mode" on what to do.

Trump reportedly laid out several paths he could take, saying he was choosing between "wiping Iran out, letting them rot economically or making a deal."

I thought we had already Won?

FACT: The American Farmer voted overwhelmingly for Trump not once but twice.

FACT: The American Farmer got BAILED OUT not once but twice by Trump to the tune of roughly $41 Billion.

FACT: That's called SOCIALISM.

FACT: I'm a CAPITALIST.

Thanks for allowing me to point out the FACTS.

Trump says he has a deal with the Houthis that they not attack us. MBS wants Trump's help to fight them. Trump says no. MBS furious. Trump to MBS:




*How do you think Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund is feelin' about the $2B they dropped on the Thin White Duke to pay for play 'bout now?

Someone actually wrote a "story" on this?

That's some "hard-hitting" journalism right there.
Definitely Pulitzer type stuff.

And literally nothing to do with IRAN.
Just spam.

It's entertaining to see how those in the ME view Trump.

Trump’s UN speech today was watched by millions across the Middle East and celebrated.

Like it or not, that’s your problem.

Here in the Middle East, we loved every word he said. And we know one thing about Trump: he is a man of his word.

You mean how those UAE government-aligned accounts view Trump?

The UAE are the biggest warmongers in the region and beyond, responsible for the ongoing genocide in Sudan and the destabilization of Libya.

The UAE is financing and arming genocide in Sudan

I've noticed that you read into a lot of things that just aren't there.

That Twitter post is from Amjad Taha, a UAE based political strategist, journalist, analyst.

That's not reflective of the MIDDLE EAST.

Not even close.

"Here in the Middle East, we loved every word he said. And we know one thing about Trump: he is a man of his word."

Well, I know MBS feels that way, as well as all his wives and everyone he has done business with in the last 50 years.

Your first sentence is humorous coming from you.

It is reflective of many in the ME.

What the Middle East enemies of Iran loved was Trump's adoption of their childish rhetoric:

Baghdad Bob: "God will roast their stomachs in hell at the hands of Iraqis."

…..but those in power in the Middle East know that Trump is a bs artist that they can't rely on.

Nothing to see here.
Nothing unusual about this lengthy deployment at sea.

Our Commander in Chief knows BEST!





Eight sailors assigned to US carrier group that fought in Iran war attempted suicide, Navy secretary tells Congress

Donald Trump wanted them at sea for an even longer deployment.
Looks like he got overridden by the Pentagon.

Embarrassing.

Republicans revolt.
This article has a bunch of quotes by senators that infuriate me. They are saying things like "this is just taking too long"
And
"I was for it initially, but then it dragged on and some things happen in war and now it's just a quagmire."

Like, it's as if they thought WAR is a trip to the mall or something.

What the hell us the matter with our leadership in this country that they

A: don't think things through well enough initially, and
B: are so ready to pull the plug while none of their apparent objectives have been met?

Answer to that second one is that it's election time and now all they care about is reelection.

I tell you, we are so hosed. I have very very little faith in our governance system.

For the Trump supporters who have totally underestimated the capability of IRAN and who continue to tell us that we are WINNING.

The question becomes . . . Why doesn't Trump seriously confront Beijing over its support of IRAN?

He has been reluctant to do so.

he's always deferential to dictators. He loves them. It's the leaders of democracies that he craps on and makes enemies of. Above all, he loves all the pageantry that's comes with meeting with dictators….it gives him all sorts of ideas. All the gold and gaudy.
