Must protect the Oil Lobby!!!!
(And he's the one who rigged it)
(Because they paid him to do so)
(And then he uses that money to brainwash stupid voters like, oh, you know who you are.)
Home sales hit a wall, falling 18% in a single month — the worst since the 2008 crisis.

The problem is mortgage rates: They’re too high to buy, but sellers are trapped in cheap Covid-era mortgages.

Good to see that Trump removed sanctions on Russian Urals Crude Oil too.
This way Putin makes a TON OF MONEY.
We definitely need to help Russia in their war with Ukraine.
We definitely need to help Russia out when they are supplying Iran with Intell.
Does this make any sense to you?

Iran is selling its oil to other countries than India, and getting paid directly for it. Not sure why they would sell to India if the proceeds are frozen, that doesn't make sense.

You're misinformed again.
Is this the same Alexander Muse that said that the U.S. produces more oil than Russia and Saudi Arabia combined?
No wonder why he dropped out of the University of Texas.
Trump administration lifts sanctions on millions of barrels of Iranian oil
May WTI traded as high as $93.36 today.
For those that claimed that the decision to put boots on the ground had already been made two weeks ago.
They're terribly misinformed.

The Trump administration has been weighing using US troops to seize the tiny island in the northeastern Persian Gulf an economic lifeline for Iran that handles roughly 90% of the country's crude exports as leverage over the Iranians to coerce them to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, CNN has reported.
Just remember folks, there never has been an actual PLAN here. Its just make **** up as you go along.
The Orange Idiot even asked our enemy China for help when it came to securing the Strait of Hormuz.
Lmao!
This is like watching a slow motion train wreck in real time. All thanks to the DUMBEST President in my lifetime, who secured 5 draft deferments.
MAGA!

I beg to differ.
We can't help you with the price of gas, but we can help your vehicle break down quicker.
Trump solution is to allow cheap shit ethanol filled gasoline to fuck your engine up.

The EPA's emergency waiver (by Admin. Zeldin) allows nationwide E15 sales (15% ethanol) starting May 1 by relaxing summer volatility rules and standardizing E10/E15 blends at 10 psi RVP. E15… https://t.co/omviLhRHqQ
The problem with this is that corn, the main source of US ethanol, requires a lot of fertilizer, whose prices are surging even more than those of oil.
I'm not sure if they've thought this out.

—30-40% of Gulf refining capacity destroyed
—11 million barrels/day offline
—full repairs could take 3 years
Under normal conditions, most oil infrastructure, including refineries, can be repaired pretty quickly.
But we’ve never seen oil industry damage on this…

Governor Newsom's policies recently helped shut another 20% of our refining capacity, and Chevron may shut down another 30%. Will Richmond lose $50 million a year in community funds if Chevron closes?
I smell another Bail-Out coming.
The most recent one was $12 Billion of taxpayer dollars.
How many more bail-outs will we see from Trump because of his idiotic policies?
