Trump: "Maybe we shouldn't be there at all. We have a lot of oil." Trump says other countries should protect the Strait because "we have a lot of oil." After starting a war, disrupting global oil - he's now asking why the US is even there


That man is dead and they keep putting out AI videos of him being alive, but he’s dead and they’re not gonna announce it until probably the end of April and they’re gonna say it’s something like an aneurysm or old age



Pure hopium. The real odds of Dems flipping the Senate are probably more like 25%, and that's with scoring huge upsets in Alaska and Ohio.

Paper traders: this war will be over soon and prices will fall. Physical traders: a barrel of UAE oil is now worth $140. reuters.com/markets/commod…


Dune lore after Dune Messiah is NUTS 😭😭😭 like story gets out of control

The USA is a net oil exporter. Closing the Strait of Hormuz hurts almost every other country more than it hurts the USA (except Russia). But we can make it hurt even less. We can keep domestic oil prices cheap while also raising money for the federal government: If the Strait stays closed, the US govt should impose an export tariff on oil. For example, say the global price hits $150 a barrel. Domestic oil producers right now make a profit at anything above around $65 a barrel. But oil was trading around $80 before the war, so let’s be nice to them. Put a $70 export tariff on each barrel taken out of the country. Then domestic oil companies will be indifferent between exporting oil for $150 and paying the $70 tariff, or selling domestically for $80. And so the price in America will fall back to $80. This would help the American people, raise revenue for the federal government, allow domestic oil producers to continue making a very good profit, and remove all the domestic political leverage that the Iranian regime is hoping to exert by closing the Strait of Hormuz. Win win win win. It’s a no brainer. The oil lobby will bitch, but we’re fighting an oil war right now that is making them massively wealthy, so…maybe they should just shut the fuck up?
