War with Iran

[Uncle Rico]

In a normal world, he'd be fired on the spot and ridiculed by all media for being out of touch with reality. In this current world, he'll likely get a promotion and more money funneled to him.

He's made so much money off his position, he's making Harding's cabinet blush.  #whataboutpelosi

Doing covert coup's overtly.  Lock him up!

Diesel prices hit $5.77, $.05 off the record high.  $6.09 in Kentucky overnight.  Just in time for harvest season!  A socialism incoming!

A predictable result when you select only for anus-licking ability instead of competence.

As always though, I remind people that the spineless chuds in the Senate voted to unnatural carnal knowledgeing confirm Hegseth, Patel, RFK jr, Noem, Bondi, etc.

Correct.  Every democrat that voted in favor of any of them should be primaried and sent to Bolivia.

Oh, those wacky dual promises - absolutely no Middle East wars and "ending" inflation ...

Oil isn't the only commodity in the middle of a massive price surge.

Key agricultural commodities that feed into the food supply chain have also been rallying over the past month.

Industry watchers say it may only be a matter of time before higher input costs hit grocery prices.

Agricultural commodities are typically purchased one to two quarters before they are delivered and processed into finished products.

"That purchasing window creates a price-movement lag," Amanda Rastovic, senior forecast analyst at Expana, told Yahoo Finance, noting food companies gradually pass higher input costs down the supply chain.

"I believe that we will see increases in retail prices by the second quarter of 2027, perhaps slightly earlier or later," Arif Gasilov, partner at Gasilov Group, a sustainability consulting firm, told Yahoo Finance.

Gasilov noted that shipping disruptions in the Middle East can push up costs repeatedly across the supply chain.

"From the farm with the fertilizer, the truck to move it, the warehouses for refrigeration, and so on," he said.

Sounds like another Christmas with kids getting only 2-3 pencils each.

Good to see both sides of the aisle condemning Elon Musk's anti-semitism.

Diesel prices have hit an all-time high!

We did it!

Promises made, promises kept!

Gin Diesel betting odds, or actual diesel fuel?

Actual diesel prices!  And that's even after raping Venezuela

Anyone want to bet Hegseth is gone by next weekend?

Looks like I'm going to be off on this one by a couple of weeks.

Just a few days ago, Captain Bone Spur had a choice between Driscoll - who he reportedly liked, and who is respected both inside and outside the military - and the inept Fox weekend host ... and he chose Kegger. So you might be off on that one for quite a while.

[pbiflyer]

The current administration and its supporters think Putin is a better ally than Canada, even in spite of this.

That's ridiculous, even for you. No one is claiming that.

🇺🇸Trump: "We want to have good relationships with Russia"

🇺🇸Reporter: "Russia is not our ally"

🇺🇸Trump: "They are, Putin is my friend"

🇺🇸Reporter: "What about Canada, they stood with us for decades"

🇺🇸Trump: "They are nasty people"

🇺🇸Reporter: "So now Russians are good and Canadians are nasty?"

🇺🇸Trump: "Yes, next question please.

Okay, well no sane person.

I wouldn't be so sure, congressional members are turning on Hegseth.  Even Thom Tillis.

What about Pelosi?  Did she ever say anything about Putin?

By 'transparent' (wait, can we say TRANSparent?), I think they mean 'most willing to openly commit crimes'.

Between July 24th and November 8th, the house will have been seated for 4 days.

Transparently useless

Diesel prices at $5.85 despite raping Venezuela's natural resources.

And it's not just diesel ...

Americans will face the highest Labor Day gas prices on record this holiday weekend due to Captain Bone Spur's unnecessary and poorly planned war.

GasBuddy forecasts prices to be at least $4.03 a gallon on Labor Day, compared with $3.16 last Labor Day, $3.30 on Labor Day 2024, and $3.83 (the previous record) in 2012.

"The pain is adding up. Unlike in 2022 (when Russia invaded Ukraine), the pressure has lingered for six months," said Patrick De Haan, GasBuddy's head of petroleum analysis. "And there's no schedule for when there will be relief."

Americans are paying an extra $97 billion since the Iran war started due to higher gas and diesel prices, according to Brown University's Climate Solutions Lab. That amounts to more than $740 per US household.

Said JV Vance: "I'm not going to make a promise about when it's going to return to $3."

Smart to leave the broken promises to his boss.

Bartiromo to SecDef?

Tillis is such a weasel. Who was one of the 50 Senate members that confirmed him, Thom?
