Odds On Everything

@SecScottBessent YOU STARTED A WAR TO LET IRAN SELL ITS OIL?!

Iran is the head of the snake for global terrorism, and through President Trump’s Operation Epic Fury, we are winning this critical fight at an even faster pace than anticipated. In response to Iran’s terrorist attacks against global energy infrastructure, the Trump Administration will continue to deploy America’s economic and military might to maximize the flow of energy to the world, strengthen global supply, and seek to ensure market stability. Today, the Department of the Treasury is issuing a narrowly tailored, short-term authorization permitting the sale of Iranian oil currently stranded at sea. At present, sanctioned Iranian oil is being hoarded by China on the cheap. By temporarily unlocking this existing supply for the world, the United States will quickly bring approximately 140 million barrels of oil to global markets, expanding the amount of worldwide energy and helping to relieve the temporary pressures on supply caused by Iran. In essence, we will be using the Iranian barrels against Tehran to keep the price down as we continue Operation Epic Fury. This temporary, short-term authorization is strictly limited to oil that is already in transit and does not allow new purchases or production. Further, Iran will have difficulty accessing any revenue generated and the United States will continue to maintain maximum pressure on Iran and its ability to access the international financial system. So far, the Trump Administration has been working to bring around 440 million additional barrels of oil to the global market, undercutting Iran’s ability to leverage its disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz. President Trump’s pro-energy agenda has driven U.S. oil and gas production to record levels, strengthening energy security and lowering fuel costs. Any short-term disruption now will ultimately translate into longer-term economic gains for Americans – because there is no prosperity without security.

@villavec @daveweigel The war is the cause, what’s your point

@daveweigel Correlation does not infer causality

Dow average down 11% since Bondi cited it during her Oversight hearing

@mattparlmer Have we considered that the PRC is totally fine using soft power to build alliances while we waste billions on military expenditures.

The “transition to cheap gravity bombs” was a lie, we’re burning standoff munitions that are needed to deter PRC at an alarming rate in a fight that has no plausible win condition

@JesseKellyDC Republicans could vote to fund tsa. They’re tying ICE to it.

Dear GOP: Democrats have created 3 hour wait times at the airport because they don’t want illegal aliens deported. There’s your messaging. Put it on repeat.

@kokosuper24 @SomaKazima2 There’s less oil in the global market because ships don’t want to cross the strait. Counties are still using the same amount of oil. The price for the oil goes up. The US exports easy-to-process oil and imports harder-to-refine oil because we have the infrastructure to do it.

@SomaKazima2 Why do Gas Prices increase in the US if they already got a lot of Oil ?

This is what y'all voted for

@_trash_void @the_transit_guy The people yearn to wait an hour in traffic and then two hours at the top of a parking garage.

@EverythingOdds @the_transit_guy and have to be stuck in a smelly tube with homeless crackheads? no thanks bro

I love how parking infrastructure is so ugly that the rendering makes the garage transparent as to not ruin the rendering lol

@NotGlidus Pay no attention to the bath where she doesn’t wear her necklace.

you're not ready for the impact this has on the plot or the character or the themes (it's nothing)

@_trash_void @the_transit_guy 30 minutes away near a train, preferably.

@the_transit_guy ok so how should people be able to park, genius?

@KC_says He’s a UNC alum. Nice to have a politician with real fandoms.

@JoshStein_ Uhhhh… isn’t High Point from NC?!

Nope

@simonkav @TheStalwart That also sucks, try having consistent principles.

@TheStalwart How do you feel about pelosi?

Last year, Donald Trump Jr. invested in a rare earths startup at a $200 million valuation. Then three months later, the US government announced a huge loan backstop for the company and now it's worth around $2 billion. bloomberg.com/news/features/…

@KevinOSheaLVNJ @DecodingFoxNews You know damn well states will use this as an excuse to make people re-register.

@DecodingFoxNews She would need extra documents to register to vote, not to vote. I am sure she, and millions other, have the paperwork. Aside from that, the SAVE act would not require her or others to “re-register” so your point is moot.

Katie Britt took her husband’s last name. She would need extra documentation to vote since her birth certificate wouldn’t say “Katie Britt” on it.

@MisesEngineer @KyleKulinski Republicans control every branch of the federal government.

@KyleKulinski Yea, its republicans causing government shutdowns 🤡

The country simply doesn’t function anymore. This is Republican rule, economic crashes, tax cuts for the rich, cuts to services, new wars in the Middle East. Every. Single. Time.

@PanasonicDX4500 Bill Skarsgard is good at playing a menacing freak, get him in here.

Honestly the biggest obstacle to adapting Children and God Emperor of Dune is trying to find someone who’s got the juice to play Leto II.

@Baloney_and @mattvanswol The president will continue to send good wishes for Ramadan, like the current one did.

@mattvanswol Ya'll this is all happening with TRUMP IN OFFICE. Whats going to happen when he leaves?

Well… it’s true. Democrat North Carolina Governor, Josh Stein, has formally recognized Ramadan in the state for February 17 – March 19, 2026. The declaration states Ramadan is to be: “commended in its observance to ALL residents…” This is absolutely insane…

@leginho @AnalyticaCamil1 If you institute the draft in America I think it genuinely falls apart.

@AnalyticaCamil1 Besides manpower that can be "easily" solved with a draft. Those the US military have the logistics capabilities to sustain that kind of a deployment?

To reiterate the obvious, this is simply militarily impossible. We’d need to invade the entirety of southern Iran.

@zenyanna Any day now he’ll tell us he has 1,100 pages. Just like the last time he told us he has 1,100 pages.

true faith is believing grrm will publish a dream of spring

@fukkinonyamama @krystalball Seems like the leftover missiles are doing a lot of damage to global oil prices. .

@krystalball Its just a bunch of jihadis in control of leftover missiles. The regime isnt in power no more. Thats why they have now resorted to killing Palestinians and arabs

Iran still doing a lot for a military I was assured was already decimated!

@SACAGAMERWI @cirnosad Nice meme man a lot of refineries are on fire and a dozen American soldiers dead but you really showed them.

BREAKING: Iran just blew the bridge between Saudi Arabia and Bahrain.

@ispyradio @newtgingrich It was a clean bill to fund TSA. You’re conflating two things. The democrat proposal would fund TSA, FEMA, CISA, and the coast guard while negotiations continue on ICE and CPB. And yes those negotiations include additional rules about how ICE conducts their business.

It was not a "clean funding bill." They wanted to change ICE operations. If it was a clean funding bill it would address just the funding. Not operations, allow agents to be doxxed and their families harassed and threatened. If you want those discussions, have a bill for that. But good job swallowing the Democrat propaganda!

Every American who has been recently delayed at an airport should thank Georgia Sen. Jon Ossoff and his fellow Democrats. You lost hours of your time because they blocked funding for the Transportation Security Administration and Coast Guard. gingrich360.net/p/thanks-sen-o…

@ispyradio @newtgingrich Democrats offered a clean funding bill for TSA. Republican want to tie more ice funding to it.

@newtgingrich They should have a sign with a number to call democrat offices to complain. A little something to do while waiting in line.
