U.S. Energy Prices on Joe Biden's last day in office compared to Donald Trump's America today:
- Brent crude $79.87 → $119.56
- WTI crude $76.58 → $101.90
- U.S. regular gas $3.13 → $4.09
- Gasoline futures $2.11 → $3.279

Is this what MAGA considers "WINNING"?
@EdKrassen When the war ends, dumb ass, the prices will plummet and the world will be much safer. You are like stupid child who can't see past the lollipop jammed against your rotting teeth. Grow up. Get a little foresight.
WARNING SHOTS FIRED: James Carville gloats that Democrats will go after President Trump and his family if they regain control of Congress after the midterms:
"They're going to start going after you… Then they're going to go after your stupid jacka-- kids and their spouses and all the other bulls--- that you see, and they're going to investigate the s--- out of you."
@GavinNewsom@KenBurns People see you, Gavvy. A oily used car salesman that has run California into the ground. Why they ever voted for you, God only knows -- but they deserve much better.
Europe has moved past standing on the sidelines in Iran and into actively obstructing our efforts. When you hinder U.S. military operations, you’re not neutral -- you are fighting for the other side.
For decades, Europe has depended on American strength while building comfort at home -- structuring their economies, stupid energy policies, and social benefit systems on the assumption that the U.S. would always carry the burden of defense. While we paid the bill, they enjoyed the benefits.
This didn’t start recently. It’s just been made visible. What we’re seeing now isn’t a change -- it’s a reveal.
While America built the house and protected the yard, Europe bought overpriced furniture and took vacations. Time to see them for what they are -- and always have been.
Iran didn’t alienate our so-called “allies.” It revealed them as weak, self-absorbed, and dependent. They were never standing with us -- they were always leaning on us.
I know the liberal script: blame America first. That’s what we’ve been trained to do. But step back and look at it plainly.
Europe urged the United States to support Ukraine -- a European nation, in a European conflict. We did more than step in – we carried the load, outspending all of Europe combined. We showed up for their war.
Then came Iran. Iran fuels Russia’s war machine, supplying the drones used in Ukraine. Striking Iran directly weakens Russia. That’s not just our move -- it benefits Europe, again. Further, when Iran is done, Russia has lost an ally.
But when the ask flipped -- when we needed access to bases or expected Europe to secure its own interests in the Strait of Hormuz -- the answer was no. Suddenly, it’s “not their war.”
Fine. Then Ukraine isn’t our war.
This isn’t complicated. When we carry the burden, we’re partners. When we ask for support, we’re on our own. That’s not an alliance -- that’s dependence and abuse dressed up as friendship.
A real ally shows up both ways. Europe didn’t.
It’s time to end the arrangement. Let Europe handle Europe. Let them secure their own energy, their own borders, their own future.
Because six years ago Trump warned Europe about dependence on Russian oil and was laughed off by the oh-so-smart German delegation.
Might not be so funny now.
Sink or swim Europe. It’s your turn to Find Out.
Donald Trump and his administration treat war with Iran like a game.
They have no plan, and they are not taking the lives of our sons and daughters and grandkids seriously.
I will not stop pushing in the Senate to end Trump’s war.
What's one sentence voters should remember about our country under Trump?
Your cost of living is way too high, because he doesn't give a rat's ass about you.
America is a republic. We are a democracy. And we are not, nor will we ever be, some kind of dictatorship or monarchy.
I stand with Americans across the country marching today in a patriotic act of dissent.
That’s not me.
I don’t lose dear friends over politics. That’s not me.
I don’t hate my country. That’s not me.
I don’t see racism everywhere I look. That’s not me.
I don’t support ending life in the womb. That’s not me.
I don’t accept perversion as normal. That’s not me.
I don’t believe men are women. That’s not me.
I don’t believe women should lose their sports to men. That’s not me.
I don't think unqualified people should have an edge. That's not me.
I don’t believe in defunding law enforcement. That’s not me.
I don’t believe in illegal entry to the country. That’s not me.
You’re right -- it’s not you.
It’s mind control -- conditioning -- and it’s working.
You’re losing yourself.
@krassenstein Of course, the Iranian people are thrilled that the terrorists that have oppressed them for 47 years is getting squished. Now, if only we could quiet American commies like Brian Krassenstein.
Here’s a clip of an Iranian girl playing on a swing at the beach as fires burn from Trump‘s missiles in the background.
Meanwhile, 13 Americans are dead, over 200 are injured, gas prices are four dollars a gallon and there’s no end in sight to this horrible war. I didn’t vote for this, did you?
