Translation: “we’ve almost exhausted the strategic oil reserves. Get ready for gas to triple.”
“You ain’t seen nothing yet!”
Technically, paying 3X for gas should raise GDP.
I’ll be grateful when he puts a gun in his mouth.
Halfway there
Livin on a prayer
doubt the grim reaper can killhimself,. he has people to reap
I hope he snags his dick in a zipper next time he fucks a couch.
Thank you so much to the Trump administration for raising gas prices LESS than the most he could have. That’s a job we’ll done. Now let’s get that arch and ball room constructed!

“DID YOU EVEN SAY THANK YOU?”
I have a feeling no matter who the GOP runs, the democrats are going to win the 2028 election. I also think it’s going to be very lopsided, like Reagan’s election in 1984. The GOP will probably win Texas.
This amount of blind deaf stupidity to the issues prioritized by their voting base isn’t going to end well.
I wish Bernie was younger. If Bernie was able to run in 2028 he would be the president our country needs. But he will be lucky to finish his current office at his age. The democrats will probably nominate someone dumb and we will end up with two cartoon characters running for office, and everything will keep getting worse.
I wouldn’t count on that. The GOP has the billionaire’s money for campaigns, which no number of other peoples donations can match. And a ridiculous number of people get all their “information” from GOP nonstop propaganda (FOX News and other MAGA dominated networks)
Texas is threatening to turn purple. They may not get Texas or Florida.
There’s too many large cities in those states that’d turn them purple. They’ll still win no city states like Montana
In all seriousness, do you really believe there won’t be incredible amounts of fuckery in the 2028 election?
In case you’ve missed it, these folks are a symptom not a disease. A good portion of the populace are evil and their party is working to gerrymander and cheat harder than ever before.
I love your optimism that we will have actual elections.
He’s not wrong, someone spent a lot of money shorting oil futures to keep this shit show together. After mid terms the prices might double lol
“You should be grateful that the president hasn’t launched any nukes yet.”
its weird that this dude fucks sofa cushions.
Let them eat cake!
JD Vance can blow a goat
I don’t think he knows how.
Somehow I wouldn’t be surprised if he actually does know.

Oh, nice! Thanks!
“we fucked you, but we used lube… YOU’RE WELCOME”.
YOU HAVEN’T EVEN SAID THANK YOU
If someone is concerned about climate policy and wants people to curtail their ICE vehicle use, high fuel prices are probably going to be the only realistic way that this is gonna be exposed to the consumer (like, we probably aren’t going to have an administration impose fuel rationing or something) so this is pretty good. Not only are they high, but it’s also good odds that your favorite politician isn’t the one taking the political hit for it. As the article points out:
In the U.S., gas prices were less than $3 per gallon before the start of the Iran war in February, and since then, the national average is now $4.14. That increase has cost Americans more than $50 billion, according to a Brown University analysis. As of this writing, the most expensive gas in America is in California, where car owners are spending as much as $5.78 per gallon. That has hurt the economy, with Americans spending a lot less money on vacations over the summer. Flights and road trips have also declined, as jet fuel costs have also been affected by the Iran war.

Historically, this is exactly the sort of moment that’s pushed people to reevaluate how they get around. During the oil crisis of the 1970s, Americans switched to smaller, more efficient cars in droves. It was a major opportunity for Japanese automakers, whose vehicles tended to fit this mold better than those produced by their US counterparts.
Nice, round numbers do tend to get people’s attention. Some point to $4 per gallon (which the national average is quite close to right now). At that price, the total cost of ownership for an EV is comfortably lower than the cost for a gas-powered car, even with higher electricity prices, according to data from the energy consultancy BloombergNEF.
Then again, maybe that won’t quite do the trick: One survey from Cox Automotive found that most US consumers would consider switching to an EV or hybrid if gas prices hit $6 per gallon.
Mind, I don’t think that Trump is gonna get a Greenpeace or Sierra Club endorsement any time soon…
The alternative, Vance said, was accepting that “the Iranians were going to shoot at ships like crazy people.”
Vance, the Trump administration was shooting at Cuban boats to score political points less than a year ago.
The Trump regime continues to randomly blast ships out of the water half a world away with no care for who’s onboard
Iran is shooting at ships in its waters
Double-tapping survivors. They were fishing boats, but even if they had been gun runners, that’s a war crime. Textbook definition.
Can’t be a crime if you get rid of the courts!
As I understand it, that’s still happening.
Sounds like youre owed some fuck around
Who do I contact to rectify this debt
Thats the beauty of it. Its your fuck around, you already found out.
Man, idek how to fuck around at this point. I’m doing way too much finding out lately.
