Oil prices shot passed $90/bbl today after Saudi Arabia and then Russia announced a continuance of production cuts through the end of this year.
The BRICS alliance is going to deliver some pain to the Western alliance. Those people living in the yellow zone, with leadership chasing climate change and Green New Deal policies, are going to see more durable inflation as the cost of oil is attached to just about every product and service.
Gasoline, energy products, petroleum products, home heating oil, groceries, everything will cost more as the geopolitical battle continues; but we are supposed to pretend we are unaware of the global political dynamic.
(Zero Hedge) – […] Just after 9am ET, Saudi Arabia said it would extend the voluntary cut of 1 million b/d of for another 3 months, from October until the end of December, well beyond the expectation of just 1 more month. Saudi press agency SPA notes that the voluntary cut decision will be reviewed monthly to consider deepening the cut or increasing production.
The extension of cuts is meant to reinforce the precautionary efforts made by OPEC countries with the aim of supporting the stability of the oil market. The Saudi announcement came a shock to market as 20 of 25 traders and analysts surveyed by Bloomberg last week had predicted the additional cutback would be continued for just one additional month.
And then, literally seconds after the Saudi decision, Russian deputy PM Novak said Russia would also extend its reduction of oil exports until the end of the year, reducing its oil output by 300kb/d in voluntary cuts until December 2023.
Similar to the Saudis, Russia said that the decision to reduce oil production to be reviewed monthly to consider possibility of deepening reduction or increasing production depending on situation on the world market. (read more)
“The U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve is empty, my friend”…
(Yahoo) – […] Higher oil prices are bad news for the world’s central banks, which have been trying to tame high inflation since last year. Energy is a key input for economic activities, so higher oil prices generally lead to inflation.
But Saudi Arabia and Russia’s keeping their oil supply cuts for longer means “they have no interest in what central banks are worried about,” Naeem Aslam, the chief investment officer of Zaye Capital Markets, wrote in a Tuesday note seen by Insider. (read more)

😂🤣😂
Expect to see the Biden stickers on the gas pumps again.
And, with the strategic petroleum reserves drained, he won’t have any way to bring prices down during an election year.
I’ve still got plenty of stickers to start using again. I’m saving them for 2024 to remind the 81 million STUPID Biden voters how much their TDS is costing them.
The 81 million do not exist.
Go ahead and use your stickers as needed.
I need to correct your comment, he didn’t get 81 million votes but he did get 81 million ballots.
You mean the actual 40 million or so brain dead Dementia Joe voters…
You would have to post them at graveyards.
They never disappeared around here and some of the graffiti added to the stickers is hilarious.
They were left on the pumps? I thought owners were scraping them all off.
Please share. 🙂
Maybe go BACK to war in the ME?
Nothin THEY do, to try to prop themselves up, would surprise.
And of COARSE BRICS is going to USE oil, supply and pricing as a weopon, against WEF.
Cause they ain’t stupid, any more than WE are.
Even Putin and MBS, or whatever the Saudi leader is (cerebral flatulence on my part!) want Biden OUT, and PDJT in, and are casting their vote.
Yep they know the game.
And to think the United States has enough oil to power the world for 200+ years.
We have enough natural resources in The United States to pay off all of our National Debt.
~ President Donald J. Trump
More true than most want to believe.
How long do you think it will take the Democrats to start blaming the high gas prices on Putin trying to help Trump get re-elected?
Yep, he has already wasted the strategic oil reserves. The deep state depends on the swift system and fiat money. This may break the bank.
How quickly can the deep state usher in a digital currency? With that, they could just start seizing everyone’s assets to pay for their folly.
I think we should replace them with “JUDASpence did this” stickers.
Just in time for winter. It’s looking like a hard candy Christmas is on the way.
I expect coal in my stocking, but even that might be too expensive for Santa.
In this economy, coal would be a great gift!
What’s wrong with hard candy? I like hard candy.
ALL by design...especially going into the election “season”. TPTB can (or perhaps not) come up with a plan that looks like they (he) are solving all oil issues with the signing of an “agreement” on oil reserves…watch and wait for it
70% of Middle Eastern oil is going straight to China. These Saudi cuts are because of China’s slow down.
If only the U.S. or its neighbors Mexico and Canada could drill oil……
Self reliance is forbidden!!!
You MUST rely on government……for your own good!
Mexico has a new refinery on line! Another coming!!
Marxist say no that’s not possible.
And that is an issue that no one in the MSM is covering about China’s slowdown.
Nope. Just that the reopening was a bit of a disappointment. But everything will be fine now because Xi is stimulating the economy, big time.
IIRC, one of the “final trades” on Halftime (CNBC) today was Ali Baba.
I mean, I’m not sure what to do, but I sure don’t want to do that. Especially with war (I’m sorry, “Geopolitical”) risk.
your rational is great, think about it when you go shopping,fill your car,utilities bill
HMMmmm. Shooting two ducks with one arrow? China is in a tail spin. Flooding for months on end and typhoons constantly this summer. Food supply has been washed away. And Biden has no resources left because he squandered them and voters everywhere are po’ed biggly. This isn’t going to help his fortunes.
Better be a heck of an agreement!
Didn’t Trump fill the Obama-depleted reserve for $14 a barrel or something crazy. Crazy good!
I believe he asked the Dem controlled house to refill at $25ish a barrel. They refused the spending request. Enter dumbass Joe and the price per barrel starts its climb. Depletion begins. There was some noise about purchasing oil at $60-70 to replenish and the media and pundits thought Joe was a genius. Don’t think it ever happened, and we are now closer to vapor.
Again, I may be off a little, but that scenario and those numbers are stuck in my head regarding that issue.
That “E” on the gas gage needs to be changed to a “P” for Push
President Trumps should have never asked Congress. FJB didn’t ask Congress when he depleted the reserve. Dems never ask permission.
Who cares, Trump or bust 2024!
When I was growing up I never thought that I would watch my country attempt suicide. And yet, I have been watching just that my entire adult life.
MAGA
MAGA or bust. May God give us the guidance, strength, inspiration to kill this “new normal.”
It ain’t suicide.
It’s murder by the elite hypocrites who know more than anyone throughout history (but yet know nothing) and intentionally destroy us in order to fit their own warped and privileged narratives and Godless ideals.
The Founding Fathers would slap the stupid out of our current political “leaders”.
And that’s a lot of slapping…
They somehow think all of this won’t affect them. It’s like their bubble is so far removed from the real world they think food and other stuff just magically shows up at the grocery store. Just ask AOC where the veggies from her salad come from.
Exactly!
The Founding Fathers would do way more than slap the stupid out of our current political “leaders.”
These clowns would have been tarred and feathered by now.
They are picking at the carcass of America in its last days. Scumbags that they are.
Slapping won’t do the job as long as someone is putting money into their hands and pockets.
It’s not the country. It’s the elites 5hat usurped the power.
If the normies understood that this pain is deliberately inflicted by the elites in DC and their corporate/WEF benefactors you’d be seeing riots right now. The media is to blame there….yeah Fox too.
Normies.
I want that word stricken from our vernacular. Its use is stupid and divisive. Like blaming all the current social and political ills on “boomers”.
Biden is waiting to refill the strategic reserve at prices between $67 and $72. Looks like he missed the boat again.
Buy high and sell low.
He doesn’t even know what the boat looks like.
I believes he, or whoever is pulling the noose tighter around our necks, has absolutely no intention of refilling the Strategic Petroleum Reserve.
None whatsoever.
I’ve always believed there was no intention to refill the reserve. Don’t know what they are planning but it’s not for our good…
I also get the feeling whatever is planned for is being speeded up. Have absolutely nothing concrete for it. There’s a rapidly approaching end game in there somewhere.
Sped up for the domestic election that might not happen and the overseas invasion that probably will.
Sorry to be so glum.
I doubt there’s enough for us to fight a war (of our own).
I assumed the point was to deplete it (as well as our supply of weapons and ammo), which will suit China just fine when they move on Taiwan (and probably more).
Maybe somebody will refill it someday. But I think you’re right: there are no plans to do so at the moment. That would actually run counter to the overall strategy.
Should read the drawdowns section of the SPR wiki page. It’s going to get worse in 2026, 2027
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strategic_Petroleum_Reserve_(United_States)#Petroleum_exchanges_and_loans
Since November 2021 Biden has drawn down 260 million barrels of oil from our reserves. Why are our fuel prices +$2.50 per gallon more? AZ price per gallon now is $5 was $2.50 PG in 2021
Biden couldn’t fill a specimen cup. The dedsicated husk of a human being digusts me.
Marcus, he is a malignant disease…a festering, grotesque clump of cretinous cells in the heart of our America.
Human?
Hardly…
He’s perfect. So brain dead he doesn’t need to be controlled. His wife is too beholden to the powers that be to make a huge stir. Both to go down in history as smoking piles of crap.
He’s only slightly worse off than Mitch McConnell, who announced today he has no plan to retire. Just like Joe and Paul Ryan, they have to stay and tie up loose ends, collect their final payments
This is due to Congress in 2018. It’s always Congress.
From SPR wiki page (section: drawdowns after 2015)
That short jaunt Biden made to Saudi Arabia to plead for more oil for the USA kind of backfired, no?
Giant kites pulling ships is a brilliant idea!
… until the kite catches the water, gets dragged under the ship and wrapped around the propeller.
… ok, maybe idea not so good.
There is nothing new under the sun, they use to call them sails.
Again about that picture. Now put the anchor chain on the sail because a boat that size wouldn’t be pulled by moms yarn kit ! Really?!
Size is irrelevant. It can be twice that size and mostly hollow and it would be fine. It’s the loaded ship that will have the issues.
Morons everywhere.
That must be why the interest in locating the Loch Ness creature has renewed: since their hopes for unicorn powers have faded, they must want to locate Nessie and force it to pull ships.
perhaps they could put the obnoxious windmills on the ships
If you think that picture is something possible or real you have not seen the strings on the marionettes yet! That is a photoshop picture like an ant carrying a car!
What are the doldrums?
The “doldrums” is a popular nautical term that refers to the belt around the Earth near the equator where sailing ships sometimes get stuck on windless waters.
https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/doldrums.html
Horse Latitudes?
👍Don’t forget the evening calm.
yeah, and even if they go to higher latitudes (mid-latitude), all the important shipping for the US is against the prevailing easterly winds (China to here)
the return trip (US to China) is downwind but that carries mainly scrap and raw materials, and a high fraction of empty containers
not the high-expense manufactured good that run the other way to the US
We’ve invented sailboats!
FJB, his sock-puppet masters and all of their like-minded ilk and supporters are low-life scumbags and are doing everything in their usurped power that they can to bring misery and hardship to the Citizens of the U.S.A.
FJB!
It’s to pay us back for the audacity of voting for Trump.
What’s awesome is the biden voters are hurt too. He turds on everyone. Talk about unity.
As promised (well,….sort of) Joe IS “Uniting the country, and indeed the World!” yeah, united against Joe Biden and his ilk.
It started long before President Trump came. It’s been planned for a long time.
Still looking forward to voting for him again anyway.
The Saudis and Putin don’t care for the currant cabal in DC, I do not blame Russia or the Saudi’s. The Saudi’s agreed to increase production with the understanding we would begin to fill the SPR, the US did not hold their end of the deal. Saudi cut production.
US is working on a color revolution in SA as we type.
Crap. Yeah, probably.
And, awful (and extreme) as the Royal family may be, I get the feeling they’re barely holding back a tidal wave of some ugly, awful-er Islamic extremism.
Stupid-shortsighted-disastrous-regime-changes-R-us.
And Biden and his ilk are trying everything they can to strangle production here.
Expect a brief reversal of SOME policies, just enough to give them hope of fooling people for the next election, and if they do, the strangling of production of oil and natural gas will get much, much worse.
Instead of “America Running the World“, the “World is Running from America“. A very weird outcome, as they insisted DJT would isolate America. (sigh)
I read that we re talking to Venezuela to sell us cheap oil in return for easing sanctions on them. 5his is the insanity our elites in DC offer us.
I’d like to see that map combined with a BRICS map.
Can’t combine them; but here is current BRICS+
See if I can get them close enough to compare.
Thanks
Quick and cheesy cut and paste, but you get the general idea. Blue-cyan = BRICS+, Yellow = WEF
Again, thanks.
Well, that looks like jolly good fun, moving cargo ships with “giant kites.” What happens when the wind blows in the “wrong” direction, or the wind barely blows at all? Great way to make “supply chain crisis” the new normal.
TPTB really take us for fools. And fools we are, for not stopping this nonsense in its tracks.
Mostly they are showing the fools that they are. These Marxist don’t have any ideas, but convince people the conservatives are worse so the sheep keep voting for those who make their lives miserable. But at least they can have sex with whomever and whenever they want without accountability and can murder the children they conceived before they have a chance to breath air.
Luckily, we have been through this before, so it is just a matter of reconstructing the old ships:
Clipper Ships – The Revolutionary Barons Of The Sea
All the sailors will have to relearn all the ancient sailing nomenclature. It cannot be done in today’s world.
And, Anon, the best part…the new cool man made fabrics….they will capture the wind so much better.
Now comes the pain.
TPTB can’t stop it.
It is out of their control.
Well, now hang on a minute, they still have their media allies who will tell the American people whatever they want told in order to lie it all away.
Pain is exactly what’s needed to awaken the woke.
Getting very uneasy anytime shopping now.
Painful for the ones I care about too.
JB’s fallback DOJ won’t be able to intervene in this payback from Russia and Saudi
And the EU isn’t saying anything about the $60.00 per barrel price cap they imposed on Russia who is now selling for over $72.00.
Gooooood point!
ROFL at the EU!
Hang in there Desertson.
This get better between 14 and 18 months from now.
The spice will flow again when President Trump returns, and there will be no Greenies out protesting pipelines by then.
They are trying to bankrupt formerly independent people out of home and car. At this rate they will be successful.
Yes….not a screw up, an agenda.
When I owe the bank $1,000 and I can’t pay it, the bank has a problem.
When 1 million people owe the bank $1,000 and can’t pay it, the bank has a problem .
The bank has a problem.
President Trump did warn us, and all the normies too, about the economic consequences of Biden getting elected.
Here we go. Buckle up.
Did I mention September is national preparedness month?
Get out of cities. It’s going to get worse, much worse.
Unless blackrock, vanguard and state street come in and bails out the banks by buying all the assets the people can’t pay for.
Yup, get out of the cities. Unless you are actively conducting insurgency operations on a daily basis, there is nothing that justifies staying.
Part of the solution, or part of the problem, there is no in between, no neutral territory.
Even the chirping heads on CNBC were worrying about banks the other day because of a note from this guy:

Who is “they”?
The elite green fascists.
Good question. This is Agenda 21/203o chugging right along. Who controls the world’s money supply, the flow of global capital and every western politician?
“Capital, if it is to co-operate untrammeled, must be free to establish a monopoly
of industry and trade: this is already being put in execution by an unseen hand in all
quarters of the world. This freedom will give political force to those engaged in
industry, and that will help to oppress the people.”
The disaffected members of the Tribe of Judah.
More like the Khazarians and Prussians and House of Windsor/Hanover, and the City of London, all tied up in one infernal knot of serpentine evil.
I very much doubt George Soros is a descendant of the House of Judah.
Yup! Just go buy an electric EV or two.
Today the Biden administration was shutting down more drilling in Alaska.
Don’t worry Guyana has an oil BOOM. I am sure they will help out biden./s https://oilprice.com/Energy/Crude-Oil/Guyanas-Oil-Boom-Is-Changing-The-Global-Energy-Landscape.html Quote: “Guyana, with a population of around 800,000 people is thought to be sitting on top of oil reserves with a value of more than half a trillion dollars. Following significant investment in exploration and production activities over the last decade, it can expect to produce around 1.2 million barrels of crude a day by 2028, according to current estimations. This is a significant increase from the current production rate of 400,000 bpd from two vessels. That’s equivalent to around 1.1 percent of the global supply, a contribution that was recently unthinkable in this previously untapped region. This figure means Guyana would be producing more oil per person than any country in the world. ” The United States can’t harvest their own oil/gas reserves yet other nations are heralded for harvesting their oil/gas reserves. Doesn’t this defeat the purpose of decreasing our dependence on “fossil” fuels?
I can see Guyana, Venezuela, Chile, and Peru following Argentina into BRICS+
They must, for their own defence/security.
The U.S. is leading the WEF war on all oil producers, and if they want to fight off the attack, via invasion, color revolution or sanctions, they MUST band together for mutual defence against the big bully that is the U.S.
We KNEW all those wars in the ME were all about OIL, its just we foolishly thought it was to TAKE the oil; ….WRONG.
It was to DISRUPT the oil production, same as the attack on Putin.
Beach boy Biden did not come up with shutting down existing drilling contracts in Alaska on his own. His malevolent Obama holdovers are the special sauce.
Despite all the disruptions caused by the administration’s green policies, the U.S. is the No. 1 global oil producer at 12.8 million barrels of oil per day. We are also one of the top oil exporters at 3.95 million barrels per day during August.
Yes, the Biden Administration has disrupted oil production on federal lands and waters to some extent. And yes, the oil companies have throttled back investment to maintain profitability to please shareholders and bondholders.
But it’s still good to see the U.S. oil and gas industry get the job done. Too bad the administration has lost much of its clout with Riyadh.
So why is the national gas price for cars at the pumps at a high of $3.82 this past week???
Because the price of oil is basically a global one, with price differences based on quantity of domestic output, quality of the crude, and transportation costs.
It’s also summer, so people are driving more. Fortunately, prices are nowhere near the $5 per gallon they were about this time last year.
All things equal, a significant cut in production anywhere causes oil prices to rise everywhere. Of course, federal and state taxes push up the price too.
If we had better relations with the Saudis, we might be able to convince them to increase output. But that is simply not going to happen. The bilateral oil-for-security arrangement is dead. But we still try to protect the Saudis, mainly out of imperial habit and lucrative defense industry interests.
Gimmee a break Pedro. If the US was able to open and keep open our own gas and oil operations, none of this would be happening. You are obviously a FJB fan.
Pedro: Prices are well above $5/gallon in Los Angeles.
Well above the national average they always are.
WA state, we are just below or above $5 a gallon.
We also don’t have as many refineries as we really need, if I recall correctly. And we haven’t built a new one in years.
If this is the case Pedro, why is gas ,etc keep going up. And why are we exporting oil .That 3.95 million barrels that could go into the reserves. You know how to blow smoke rings too, I bet
I’m neither endorsing nor taking away from Pedro, but your comment shows a lack of fundamental understanding. The US primarily produces light sweet crude. Of which our refineries are not equipped to handle. Reserving our own oil without completely new refineries is a fools errand. Hydrocracking light sweet vs heavy sour is not the same process. Further heavy sour also provides us wit more usable material such as bitumen that is used in everything from shingles to roadways to paint. For industry heavy sour is what’s needed for gas, diesel, bitumen, and more. I could continue on, but merely point this out that even your idea is futile yet you criticize Pedro 🤔
Thanks for curing my ignorance on that, bro.
Absolutely. Hope all is well in the sunshine state!
DanQ: We cut off oil exports in 1975. But Obama endorsed a compromise deal with Congress in December 2015. Democrats got renewable tax credits for wind and solar extended. Republicans got an end to the oil export ban.
We could ban oil exports again. And yes, the government could buy that crude and put it into the SPR. But at some point, the SPR would be refilled and chances are prices would drop unless exports resumed.
Lower prices are good for consumers, but industry would cut back on production, which is what happens when prices drop, though it takes about five months for drilling to decline and about a year for output to decline.
And as Okie Cat Backer writes nearby, the world-class Gulf Coast oil refinery sector requires heavy crude, which the U.S. does not produce. Therefore our refineries still have to import foreign oil, the price of which is going up thanks to Saudi-Russian collusion.
This means we may as well export the surplus light sweet crude oil we don’t need, which helps to pay for heavy crude we do need. And light crude is high quality and sells at a premium over heavy crude.*
* Smoke rings not included.
Because the USA has started to run dry on it’s old easy & cheap to exploit “conventional” oil fields. In places like Texas and Louisiana.
The current “record production” is due mostly to shale, which has far higher overhead costs and a rapid depletion rate on newly tapped wells.
Most oil companies involved in shale can’t break even, without massive subsidies and/or jacking up prices.
You can pump all the oil you want. It’s in the refinery where the real action is. Lower the numbers of refineries and the cost escalate. Eventually we run out. Just like electricity. Close the plants and increase the price. You can bet China and India will continue to refine and produce the energy that will drive their economies making the US and Western Europe at a great disadvantage. Imagine eating that hard candy Christmas in a cold , dark house.
Patrick: You hit on an important point. The U.S. is shedding refinery capacity, mainly on the East Coast near Philadelphia. The loss of capacity, if I’m not mistaken, has caused demand for imported gasoline from Europe to increase. Another problem is that a number of refineries are being repurposed to produce renewable diesel from animal fats and plant matter. California refiners bit on this fad big time due to state subsidies.
Last I remember, some refineries on the Gulf Coast were moving in that direction too. But if memory serves, some of those plans have been put on hold due to higher feedstock prices. We can thank the Russian invasion of Ukraine for that. There really is no ready substitute for refined petroleum products.
Bio/renewable diesel is dirty. My brand new cummins has a 15k mile oil change interval but is half that if you use biodiesel in any form. Its also about 20% less efficient based on personal experience in an older diesel I had. More dog whistles by the eco crowd for the ill informed. Thanks for all you’ve shared!
I am in a similar situation. But electric in hot Texas a/c weather only jumped up to $75 from the basic $38.
A $400 utility bill would mess me up.
And gas is about $3.80 here.
Ours was 380$ last month in northern-ish Florida.
Wow! I’d love to see those prices again! Got gasoline about $5.50 and felt fortunate, electric is above $250/mo, the kicker is $400/mo for water and sewer (and I have the brownest yard in the neighborhood!
Go to your local food pantry
to get some relief
Yes, if your on SS, they HAVE to “qualify” you for at least a minimum amount of ‘foodstamps’ $15/mo. asI recall.
Being qualified for food stamps, means you are qualified for once/month at the food bank, and they don’t give a box any more, its a GROCERY CART FULL.
Take advantage of every thing you can, to survive.
You/we didn’t create this F’d up system, they didn’t even ASK us, but learn to exploit the system, any way you can.
Where do you sign up for this?
Hysteria is a wonderful thing when you want to “herd citizens” in the direction(s) you seek. Clinton’s man Rahm Emanuel said “never let a crisis go to waste” which the democrats realized as the greatest “gift” COVID truly provided within their political calculus. Look what they have achieved where “elections have consequences” according to the real force behind Biden…that would be Obama.
“A taste of the whip” is how democrats have come to love governing.
I predicted Biden would do something really stupid and ugly this week concerning the Medal Of Honor ceremony for the Viet Nam true Hero/Warrior. And that dumb scumbag (Biden) did just that by flubbing his thoughts and abandoning the ceremony as others sought to honor Captain Taylor upon his receiving the medal. I note with special interest how the mainstream media goes overtime to distract such evil behavior and the many ways they twist the truth of that ceremony.
We will soon see how strong or weak republicans choose to be in the face of this new inflationary moment; as we also watch the Speaker of the House decide what action, if any, to take on Biden’s sell out of America.
I don’t have high hopes. Captain Taylor stands so tall in regard to that chump Biden and his sissy handler Obama!
I have lost all faith/hope in Kevin doing what needs to be done in the Biden shenanigans.
We are already at +$5 a gallon in SoCal. How high will it go. Yippee!
rojobirds: Darn right! The price of gasoline in LA really zoomed upward during the summer.
I seem to remember OPEC crushing our cajones in a vice once before , let me think , that’s right it was during the 70’s …..
I misspelled vice , it should be vise .
Remember those odd even gas lines very well.
I can remember daddy getting up at the crack of dawn to try to be first in line on “even” days. Where we lived, your license plate number determined when you were “allowed” to purchase gas. It was terrible.
We walked everywhere is was feasible to do so then, as it cost a small fortune to fill up the station wagon. Not to mention trying to feed 8 mouths.
I never thought we would be facing that again, as a nation.
Gas was $.25 Per gallon. Great for my VW.
“RINOs are useless” is not only true, it’s the worse betrayal of their voters and our country.
We are definitely on our own.
In addition to prices and rents going up, the Lies these people in DC are telling right in plain view of the actual opposite reality AND that there are voters who will still believe the Lies, some in my own family!makes me want to go to church 24/7 and pray to please deliver us.
Sounds like an idiot, truth be told
This is just the beginning of the tsunami of consequences for allowing the Obama Cult to sweep Nihilism across our culture and promote Fabian Socialist values and agendas. Trump is the only conservative leader to step forth and challenge this insurrection of America. This is why the Congress jumped on that word “insurrection” so soon after January 6 because they know, they themselves are engaged in one themselves!
Trump needs our help as much as the Founding Fathers needed help back in their day. To do nothing is to deny your own future generations.
Fake War
Hold on and Stand Firm!
Don’t forget the toilet paper shortage next. I’ve already stocked up…
“Higher oil prices are bad news for the world’s central banks, which have been trying to tame high inflation since last year“
It’s actually not a problem at all for countries that are 100% capable of being 100% energy independent. You know, like we were before OBiden was installed.
Yahoo News, propaganda mouthpiece of the regime.
And the Keystone could have taken tar sand heavy crude from Alberta to the gulf refineries. But then Chicago??? refineries wouldn’t have it all to themselves……….
Hmmmmm
They got Biden by the gonads. Unfortunately, the rest of the world (including us) will suffer. So much for energy independence.
Electricity at $400.00 is obscene. Get your neighbors and make your voices heard.
Ask a Duke customer..
If only Hunter could get on an US oil producers board…
Good. Until the public really faces economic consequences, we won’t see change.
What is interesting to me is that prices do not go down when the price of oil dips. Gasoline hasn’t dropped while the price was lower. The cost of items in stores has not gone down, but stores have many discounted items. These seem to be the “extras” that people aren’t buying.
As much as I hate it, I’m glad they are in effect, Bud Lighting the US.
I don’t like it, but BRICS needs to put the screws to the western cabal.
Brics version of the color revolution. They know the kulags won’t be happy in the west.
I saw the USAA bill today and felt weak in the knees. My nephew’s good student discount doesn’t take much of a bite out of the sum.
Oh man, don’t get me started on USAA. I’m still peppered about the fact they started advertising on TV to people who aren’t eligible to sign up and our dividend checks have been devalued ever since. I imagine there was a meeting where someone said: hmmm, how can we waste money and piss off our customers? I know, let’s hire marketing people and agree they need to then hire outside consultants.
We should be maximizing our energy production not contracting production. We are just beginning the Eddy Minimum, the third grand solar minimum (GSM) since the 1600 hundreds. GSM’s tend to be cold with all types of weather extremes together will geological and solar disasters. Relying on wind and solar to replace fossil fuels and nuclear power is a prescription for disaster.
Last winter Texas wind machines froze solid. What will this winter bring?
Great article from NIH on the GSM: Government knows that AGW is a hoax.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7575229/
This progress the progressive Lefties are always talking about sure looks a lot like going backwards.
Their “giant kite” is called a spinnaker on a sailboat. To use the spinnaker you must have the wind at your stern. Have any of these decision makers ever been on a sailboat, or a tanker? TI can’t see this working at all for any true maneuvering or even being able to get from point A to point B. Do they realize there are storms in the oceans? Morons.
Simple solution ~~~take the Biden train across the Deep Blue Sea.
Once FJB’s road gets tuff and bumpy, he will quit the job that is why he is there to destroy from within, he won’t be around to build back anything. Pray we get our country back.
We know better, than that we should have to ask, whether all these things are moving in a predetermined same direction. We have the Bible, and the Holy Spirit given to give us understanding of the times, so we SHOULD know what to do. But still there are MULTITUDES pretending to be stupid, and refusing to believe, even what their eyes tell them!

Ezekiel 7:12-14 “The time is come, the day draws near: let not the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn: for wrath is upon all the *multitude thereof. For the seller shall not return to that which is sold, although they were yet alive: for the vision is touching the whole multitude thereof, which shall not return; neither shall any strengthen himself in the iniquity of his life. They have blown the trumpet, even to make all ready; but none goes to the battle: for My wrath is upon all the multitude thereof.”
*Multitude – הָמוֹן – (haw-mone’) – sound, murmur, roar; especially sound made by a crowd of people; crowd, abundance
Isaiah 24:1-6 “Behold, the LORD makes the earth empty, and makes it waste, and turns it upside down, and scatters abroad the inhabitants thereof. And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest (ruler); as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him. The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD has spoken this word. The earth mourns and fades away, the world languishes and fades away, the haughty people of the earth do languish. The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant. Therefore has the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.”
Revelation 13:15-17 “And he had power to give life to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed [outright]. And he causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: and that no man might buy or sell, except he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.”
At what point God stops sending to warn the people to repent and prepare for meeting their God; they will have already been judged, and the door has been shut. That day is just about upon us!
Wondering, will this bring down the Federal Reserve and fiat monopoly money? Will we be forced back into the gold standard. I’m seeing trends towards this.
Kites…we have allowed CLOWNS to take control of our country…Evil Clowns
Only, 6500 products made from petroleum. Translation, higher oil prices leads to recession.
Dang.
Saw lower prices at the pumps here today and should have stopped to fill-up the tank.
Now we’ll be paying more, while the disgusting liars use this squirrel event to siphon off our money.
What about medicals supplies. Oh, yes, this comes from BRICS alliance too.
What about fertilizer for growing food. That’s right, BRICS alliance again.
On my way home from choir practice, I saw our gas has gone from $3.49 to $3.99. I don’t remember if it has been over $4.00. East Central Missouri.
Damn that mini bike purchase recently just now came in handy!!! I just have to attach the two baskets behind the seat so I can haul a couple of bags of groceries (if we can still afford food, A BIG IF)! No more using my V8 truck to go running errands close by until President Trump returns in January 2025!!! 🤔
We need MORE carbon—not less! Americans need to be extremely cognizant about this issue.
I like the kites. The circle is complete: Sails to coal/steam to diesel to nuclear and back to sails. Next they will be telling us life was better in the Dark Ages.
