This war:

1. Is good news for Russia

2. Is bad news for our Labour government

3. Diverts from Trump's involvement with Epstein.

Seems like a good strategy as far as Trump is concerned.

".. The last few years have been a steady exercise in market humility. 'Oil can’t go negative.' It did. 'Russia will always be a reliable supplier of gas to Europe.' It wasn’t. 'Hormuz is too important to actually stop.' Until it did."

Sen. Rick Scott: "What would the cost be if they had a nuclear weapon and used it against America? What would the cost be if they had long-range ballistic weapons and used them against America? So this is a good long-term investment for peace and prosperity, stability, in the US and worldwide."

Good luck, Mr. President. Article 1, Section 7, Clause 2 says if he doesn't sign a bill within ten days after presented it while Congress is in session, the bill automatically becomes law. If he vetoes any bill, Congress can overide his veto.

Trump threatens to withhold his signature on bills until Congress passes the SAVE Act.
Wow. Devastating leverage...

EXCEPT the Constitution says that bills passed while Congress is in session become law automatically after 10 days with OR without his signature.
So he's threatening to do - nothing.

Federal agents lied about why they shot a Venezuelan man in Minneapolis. Their story quickly fell apart. The attack marked the only time that federal authorities admitted wrongdoing during Operation Metro Surge.

Then-DHS Secretary Kristi Noem doubled down, denouncing the incident as an act of β€œattempted murder” on law enforcement. Her agency published mugshots of all three men arrested in connection with the alleged assault, casting them as β€œviolent criminals.”

None of it was true.

I don't think you have to Nostradamus to figure that bombing Iran might raise oil prices. And it seems pretty obvious that buying oil in advance of causing an oil price spike might just save Americans a lot of money. But...

...maybe there wasn't much planning?

Different sizes of oil tankers. A VLCC can carry around 2 million barrels of oil. ULCC between 3 to 4 million barrels. Current price per barrel around 90usd

Dems:
Citizens United must go
Trump’s tax breaks for billionaires must go
Electoral College must go

NOTHING
They haven’t tackled any of these- they had Obama w a majority + they had Biden.

NOTHING changedβ€”but they are still bitching about it

(around photos of Jeff Bezos and an Amazon employee) Jeff Bezos made $90 billion in profit... because of their hard work.

Amazon's profits went UP 45%, but its taxes went DOWN 87%.

Thanks to Trump's "Big Ugly Bill," Amazon paid just $1.2 billion in taxes (down from $9 billion last year).

Hardworking Americans are struggling, while Republicans hand massive tax breaks to the Epstein class.
