Barbara Boyd opens with diesel: as Ukraine’s strikes on Russian refineries tighten the world’s supply, President Trump threatened to halt U.S. diesel exports unless Europe released its emergency stocks, and the G7 agreed to release 100 million barrels. She presents it as the opening move of a 35-day economic offensive running into the midterms. The week of action includes Trump’s visit to the Peterbilt truck plant in Denton, Texas, where employee Sarah Renshaw credited tariffs for 1,000 new jobs; his Oklahoma rally; a White House luncheon with tech leaders on superintelligence; what the White House calls the largest steel plant ever built in the United States, coming to Iowa; Vice President Vance at the groundbreaking of Saronic’s Port Alpha shipyard in Brownsville, Texas; and South Korea’s plans for an Alaska LNG pipeline, a 6-gigawatt power plant in Texas and eight nuclear reactors.
On affordability, the episode walks through price increases under Biden (energy up 33% from January 2021 to January 2025), Vice President Vance on the inflation crisis he says the administration inherited, refining capacity, housing regulation and immigration, Secretary Kennedy at the MAHA Summit on AI giving every patient a better-informed second opinion, and the White House fraud task force’s crackdown on Obamacare enrollments. It closes with Michael Shellenberger’s account of the student riots in France, French intelligence tying the movement to Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s France Unbowed (LFI), and NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman on a new golden age of space exploration.

The “Enemedia” will make sure this stays buried.
good word to describe them
I had to read that three times. My old tired eyes kept reading “Enemedia” as “Enema.”
What’s your point?
I repeatedly misread the comment due to my brain autofilling the word. Which, in hindsight, was probably due to what I think of the media and their role in the spreading the excrement of those who want to destroy America.
just joking–you read it correctly!
😄
E knee mick mead dee ah.
We really are going to need another Trump term for 2028 to make all the stuff he’s doing stick.
I don’t know what other republican would be up to the task. What PDJT does and how he does it strikes me as irreplaceable.
I’m sure he will make sure that whoever he endorses will guarantee that they will stick to his long-term plans!
Here’s hoping he stays in the background ….advising…..the next president. Kinds like osama or Obama, whatever the hell his name is, did.
How about if President Rubio names Trump as his Chief of Staff????
AGAIN … Rubio is NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THE PRESIDENCY. I’ve stated the reasons why here, many, many times. Or do you want another assault on the Constitution under your belt?
You are wrong.
He’s a natural-born U.S. citizen who is at least 35 years old and has been a resident of the United States for 14 years. Rubio meets all constitutional requirements to hold the office.
According to your definition of “natural born” I would love to know what you think is an “unnatural born” citizen?
Caesarean section birth.
=You are indeed wrong. His parents were both permanent residents at the time of Rubio’s birth and were subject to the jurisdiction of the USA. If you study the evolution of how US citizenship was granted ie only by father for many years, by mother or father more recently, you will see that the earliest criterion included permanent residents or specifically those who had declared the intent to become citizens. At that time there were no green cards and no elaborate waiting period.
The Naturalization Act of 1790 (No Declaration Required)
When the U.S. first established its uniform rule in 1790, the “Declaration of Intention” step did not exist yet.
The Process: An immigrant only had to reside in the U.S. for a brief two years and then apply directly for citizenship.The Rule for Children: The law explicitly stated that the children of newly naturalized persons, if they were under 21 years old and living in the U.S. at the time, were automatically considered citizens.Because the government felt two years was too short, Congress passed the Naturalization Act of 1795, which officially invented the Declaration of Intention (“first papers”). Immigrants now had to file this declaration at least three years before they could officially take their final oath.
If an immigrant father filed his Declaration of Intention under this law, and a child was born afterward, the child’s status depended on the birth location:
Born on U.S. Soil: If the family was living in the United States and the child was born here after the father filed his declaration, the child was a U.S. citizen from birth.When people try to hold that formal citizenship of one or both parents is the only criterion for natural born citizenship they are ignoring the historic record and how citizenship was regarded and acquired when the Country was founded.
It is much more true to the intentions and writings of the founders that a child born to parents who had declared for permanent residency, paid taxes and were on the path to citizenship, following through with all of the requirements, would be counted as having made the commitment and their child would be a citizen from birth. This is very different than the anchor baby scenario.
Even if you’re right it’s no longer any more relevant than a land line for a phone. Your reasons might be unassailable, but have become irrelevant due to a previous very questionable president’s origin.
This old blog fully explains who a natural born citizen is. Excellent reading.

Rubio keeps insisting that Russia is losing 25,000 soldiers a month. If I wanted a liar as President I would just vote for Newsom. He’s better at it and has more experience lying than Rubio! 🙄
I have been told by some reliable sources that Russia is losing close to 15k monthly and there may have been months where they have been close to 25k
Both sides , have suffered heavy casualties not seen since WWII.
Rubio is NOT a “natural born citizen”.
Perhaps he names Trump his Vice President.

Remember when media forbade his middle name being used in 2008?
I do.
I’m not impressed with his endorsements. At all.
Sometimes you have to pick least offensive viable food that is available at the globohomo, IC owned buffet.
Of course, there are tons of shit “republicans”, everybody knows that. It’s the old hold your nose and vote for the one that will do the least damage, hopefully.
Options?
Your concern is noted.
It’s why it’s critical we vote Republican in midterms.
One hurdle at a time.
We’ll get a chance to build a deeper bench by winning the midterms.
Otherwise we’ll be fighting impeachment or worse.
Sounds like a rinse and repeat.
Ford gave us Peanut Carter
HW Bush gave us Cigar Clinton
Romney/Ryan gave us Obama
Disagree. Our President is nothing like those you mentioned.
He’s restructuring the world.
We are fighting with him.
Our President was not in the DC club. It will be very interesting who President Trump endorsement will be for 2028. The country hangs in the balance.
Trump is a one-off just like Reagan.
What comes next won’t be MAGA but I would be happy with America-First as the next best thing.
Congress is lost. After 5 election cycles the number of MAGA in Congress is about 5%.
Based on Putin’s speech, 2029 is the target date for the EUnuchs expanded war with Russia. If true, that would strongly indicate the globalists are hoping to out last PDT. Could it be a created politician like Vance talks a good game but will fall in line with his globalist handlers?
At the rate they’re going, I’m not sure they can make it 2 more years
Congress is lost = Forty Trillion In Debt!
Reagan had Mob/IC approval, Trump not so much. MAGA does not satisfy the greed component required for many politicians.
Wait ‘til it’s known they stole their seats. That changes everything
It is.
He should be able to get 2 consecutive terms after having the Election stolen from him.
If the Republicans weren’t so gutless (Bondi) so that resolving the Election Integrity and pushing a possible two term penalty on the democrats should have been #1 Priority at Justice, and just making as big a stink as possible about it to raise awareness and blame on the democrats.
Not gutless, complicit.
I like Hegseth.
Seems to have grit in the face of all the DEI BS.
Okay.
He can have another term if he wants one.
ps; What does the Constitution say?
A: The winner of the election shall serve.
He won three times.
His loss in 2020 would have to be proven a lie with overwhelming evidence and the swamp won’t allow that to happen.
I beg to differ. The swamp is losing its grip.
Republicans in Congress have wasted two-years refusing to make President Trump’s agenda permanent.
They’re the right cheek of the same @$$.
Something tells me that Trump (and then at least Rubio) shall stick around for a while, Lord willing, after 2028 to advise the new admin.
Hopefully highlighting some of the good outcomes will help motivate turnout. Sadly I’m certain we’ve lost the House and the Senate might need some upsets to hold a Republican majority.
Not going to happen. If you are watching any media (especially Faux) don’t waste your time. If have already left them behind – you are ahead of the game.
It takes more work to find out what is really going on based upon rational and informed analysis from rational and informed presenters.
Ironically, many channels on YouTube have been getting it right including the one Sundance highlighted.
As Sundance regularly reminds us – we have to start asking how does what the p!$$stream “report” make any sense:?
We are the largest producer of oil in the world. WTI price is up. Who receives that money? The US.
I have a theory: Trump will pay the $5000 “dividends” from the windfall profits in oil.
Sadly you seem to buy into the psyops of the fake polls 🙂
The recent redistricting was probably a net plus for the GOP of about 10 seats.
And the denial of redistricting in VA probably saved 4 or 5 seats.
Yeah….it’s going to be close. But how the heck you can be “certain” the House is lost is really nuts 🙂
Before the Iran Adventure a Republican victory in November was guaranteed. Now it’s not.
Your concern us noted.
Again.
C’mon! Stop it! Is the “Iran Adventure” such a “catastrophe” that you would vote for self-admitted anti-America Communists instead?
Quit buying the bullsh*t!!!
I wonder if you are the B52bomber who posts the same NEGATIVITY on the AmericanThinker site. Making your pre November rounds?
Sundance enlightened us years ago about how all polls are skewed to the left by oversampling dems by as much as 15%
Don’t believe the polls, they are BS, trying to demoralize you so you think there is no point in voting.
Really? You’re “certain we’ve lost the House?” Well, all I’ve got to say regarding that remark is that you really need to QUIT listening to and reading ALL of the propaganda shrilling outlets and rags out there, including FOX!!
There are many, many more online sights and blogs that speak not only truth, but REALITY as well, which reveal what is really going on in the world. Yet, as creatures of habit (?), or maybe just plain ignorance (?), millions still tune in to the “convenient” (that’s it!) media whores that dominate the airwaves (i.e., ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, & FOX, etc).
A breath of fresh air would do you good. Personally, in my circle, EVERYONE still speaks positive about holding the House. What’s the alternative? Voting for self-admitted Anti-America Communists??? I don’t think so.
HOME RUN!!!
There’s corporate price collusion going on before the Election, I don’t think they can make it there before some relief starts setting in, one thing the selfish greedy m-fers won’t do is get caught holding the bag. This is why we can keep helping by keep fighting inflation:
Modern American Legally Abetted Corporate Monopoly Pricing:
Keep fighting inflation, #1 Only buy what you need! #2 Look around and be creative (look at what you’ve already got). Know that there’s a 99% chance you’ll be disappointed with the corporate Chinese garbage they’re trying to pawn-off at Wal-Mart, Costco, and the whole conga-line of other traitorous distributors (run by ass-holes from the north-east-corridor). #3 Do what’s right! Get your money back. I know that can be difficult with shipping expenses and fuel prices but try – it’s your public duty. Don’t just throw it in a donation pile – that’s how they win. #4 Go step by step, don’t be impatient, don’t ever get ahead of yourself by wishing in more items and compounding the problem (this is where I believe the merchandizing crisis in the United States was a phycological-operation executed by the Chinese), get-by until you can get your hands on the right item that you need – half the time you’ll discover a better way by doing this and won’t have to make the purchase at all.
Americans confuse needs with wants. They buy rib eye steak 🥩 but complain how much it costs. They don’t consider alternatives. They complain about the price of fuel yet start the car up to drive Timmy 500 feet to the school bus stop. They continue to buy expensive coffee at Starbucks, go to movies that are worthless junk, and eat out most of the time because they cannot or don’t want to cook but complain about how everything is more expensive.
Those that adapt to the current environment will survive. Unfortunately those who don’t run to the government to help them.
Folks in our neck of the woods don’t do any of the above, John Chisum.
We are a small retirement golf course community tucked away in the Ozarks.
Most folks watch their budgets and pinch their pennies, even as worthless as they may now be!
However, I guess I am as guilty as many regarding needs versus wants.
Occasionally, it is nice to take a little from the budget to treat ourselves with a meal out.
“Welfare” was/is the biggest error gov’t. ever made. Polish up your Independence, People.
The RINOs hate Trump at least as much, if not more, than the Democrats. So of course they are not going to trumpet his results
It’s more than a little disconcerting to see folks, conservative folks, falling for this price of gas BS. ‘ Can’t see beyond the end of there noses….
Amen, brother!
DSA + Democrat Party = France for America.
Easy to see, impossible to miss, MSM lying to the public daily.
Hourly.
This man is an animal!
He’s the full package: brainy, brawny and brilliant.
My love, admiration and appreciation for him grow with every passing day.
I must say that I’m rather shocked at the level of black pilling I’m reading thus far in the comments. Thank goodness we are not alive at the time of the American Revolution where, instead of joining it, commenters would say ‘we’re going to lose, I’ll just stay home’. Geesh.
Paid instigators. I’ve heard they get $5 for each comment now. Inflation I guess.
Everything is paid. All the evil is paid. That’s why we’ve had no riots or protests since they eliminated USAID. George Floyd protests all coordinated and paid.
Charlottesville, North Carolina. “Nazi” crisis actors were bused in.
I bet these French students are paid and instigated by provocateurs a little older 18 or 19.
Didn’t Shakespeare say it, “All the world’s a stage. . .”
Yep.
Life is a walking shadow.
Charlottesville is in Virginia. Charlotte is in NC.
🎯👍👍👍💯
Now that’s interesting!
Seems like some of these comments are trying to discourage people!
As for me, there are many other things to do rather than let these “words” discourage!
Going to go heat up some delicious leftovers…😋😋😋
Buck up!
Stand for TRUTH!
There ya go. Leftovers are great.
There are actually people that frown at leftovers. They don’t know what they are missing.
Agree!
Actually, many foods are much better the next day!

We have a friend whose husband never eats ‘leftovers’…. imo, he’s never had a hardship in his life, or he’d be happy to eat ‘leftovers’.
It’s possibly worse. Read that they get paid for each response to one of their posts. If that’s accurate, it’s best to just ignore them.
Actually I get $100 a comment and $100 every time you reply, John. I’m buying a new Mercedes Benz GLC 300 4MATIC thanks to you! 🙄
🤣 Oh Lord won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz?
There you go B52, you can add the optional Alcantara cup holders as well now. 😉
🎯 Interesting how Chris Adam seems to get between about 38 and 44 likes on each post within a fairly short time-frame compared to what I normally observe on here. 🤔
just looked, and you’re correct Frostback
impossible to be organic since none of his posts are particularly pithy, insightful or engaging
additionally, most have annoyingly whiney undertones
chances are good the c. a. account will suddenly vanish post election
All up to ~60 likes now, even just his one-sentence answers with no additional points raised. 🤔

As usual, Barbara Boyd did an excellent job summarizing the problems facing America, DemonCrat complicity in creating those problems, President Trump’s winning streak against those problems, and the RepubliCon failure in communicating those wins to the voters.
The only thing she left out was that the RepubliCons and the DemonCrats play for the same team-the UniParty Team.
Both wings of the UniParty are actively working to defeat the MAGA agenda.
The RepubliCons aren’t able to grift as much filthy lucre under President Trump as they were before.
The DemonCrats have lost a significant amount of power under President Trump.
Both sides view the current direction of the country as unacceptable, and there’s nothing they would not do to go back to the old ways.
Only God knows how the midterms will turn out. Those of us who are not paid trolls know that President Trump communicating directly to the people (with God’s blessings) is the best chance we have to defeat the UniParty and the trolls they pay to stir up division and defeatism.
Pray continually. Speak truth to everyone you meet. Spread the truth of the Trump Restoration and the Trump Winning Streak. Refuse to let the trolls and the Eyeores get under your skin. Laugh at their foolishness.
With God’s help the midterms will be one more resounding victory for MAGA, President Trump, and all patriotic Americans.
Amen and AMEN 🙏 ✝️
Well said, Sit!
Diesel is for closers.

Or… WE WIN!
We say to the darkness, you have lost and WE HAVE WON, praise God!
Isaiah 60
1
Arise! Shine! Your light has come;
the Lord’s glory has shone upon you.
2
Though darkness covers the earth
and gloom the nations,
the Lord will shine upon you;
God’s glory will appear over you.
3
Nations will come to your light
and kings to your dawning radiance.
4
Lift up your eyes and look all around:
they are all gathered; they have come to you.
Your sons will come from far away,
and your daughters on caregivers’ hips.
5
Then you will see and be radiant;
your heart will tremble and open wide,
because the sea’s abundance will be turned over to you;
the nations’ wealth will come to you.
The devil is a punk liar. THIS is your future, Child of God!
Hallelujah!
…Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil, for though art with me, thy rod and thy staff they comfort me…
Thank you father God, to dwell in Your house…have no fear!
Amen and AMEN 🙏 ✝️
All I hear now is that there is now a glut of oil but gas prices are so high
because there isn’t enough refinery capacity. So why was gas in the low $3’s and heading for a $2 handle a year ago with the same refinery’s in the US. Color me skeptical.
“The pump price is determined by market speculators, commodity traders and multinational financial interests. That “market price” has nothing to do with the amount of diesel in the inventory.”
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2026/09/23/energy-secretary-wright-is-correct-banning-exports-of-u-s-diesel-only-raises-the-price-of-u-s-diesel/
Contrary to popular belief, oil prices are not determined by supply and demand.
Oil prices are “fixed” (rigged) by financial speculators and central banks.
Right now those speculators are keeping oil prices artificially high in the run up to the midterms. They are doing it intentionally to “Get Trump.”
Certainly, the fact that the United States hasn’t built refineries in decades plays a role.
So does the fact that Ukraine (EU and NATO) is bombing refineries in Russia in a desperate attempt to start WW3.
The speculators play the biggest role.
something is rotten in Denmark… Europeans are getting slam dunked and are paying close to $13us a gallon for diesel or whatever but it takes American threats to force them to access diesel from their strategic reserves…. this story belongs with the plumber bummer defying centrifugal force saving an airplane hurtling toward oblivion and the doufasses who got caught without a viable bomb trying to blow up an airport… Whatever happened to critical thinking….I’m not going to let the suckers for this one get bailed out like those idiots in Britain were.. truth is the first casualty of war … heads up…
maybe the underlying dynamic of this Mexican standoff could be reconfigured as a you completely drain your strategic oil and diesel reserve first or else and the europeans buckled… mark me down as cynical. 12 million barrels of oil per day beating the hormuz blockade sounds like it might be a bridge a to far…. The witching hour is getting nigh….
The $13 (U.S.) a gallon you refer to is likely the price they pay at the pump, which all across the EU is well above the “market price” because of all the insane taxes they add on to gasoline and diesel in their countries (much worse than California’s high gas taxes). They have been doing that to their pump prices for decades. I remember how high the gas prices were at German gas stations when I was stationed over there in the 1980s (it was much lower at the U.S. PX gas stations on our kasernes, which didn’t charge their taxes).
Maybe it takes U.S. pressure to do something because they are used to paying those high prices?
Jeff Childers’ latest is also worth checking…
☕️ THE GOLDEN SHARE ☙ Saturday, October 3, 2026 ☙ C&C NEWS 🦠
The Times counts empty seats; Medicare’s “improvement” fund finally improves something; and the Pentagon buys a piece of Venezuela for a penny a share— Is Trump doing the impossible?
Good morning, C&C, it’s Saturday! Your weekend edition roundup includes: the New York Times sending its seat-counters to Alabama and somehow missing the 80-year-old on a 32-day campaign tour; ninety bucks per senior from a Medicare “improvement” fund that has never improved anything; the Pentagon buying more than a third of a Venezuelan oil company with penny warrants; thirty-nine government stock deals that nobody in Washington will explain; and the dots between all of it and the end of the income tax, which the experts haven’t connected — yet.

Tey are not Democrats anymore!
This interview of “Ghost” by CryptoRich dovetails with this report from Barbra Boyd: The US needs steel for manufacturing. Who owns US Steel? Who will preside over the Board of Directors? 5D chess…
That was a great, thanks for posting.
There are so many positive changes taking place as a result of Trump’s brilliant putting into place the American system of economics. This is a subject democrats know nothing about: all their policies amount to a dead economic system, widespread impoverishment, widespread anger and discontent. These policies that Canada has enacted, that are chosen by the leadership of the EU and the UK are leading to disaster.
Here in America the opposite is happening:
There is so much to be grateful for!
Please add to this list anything I have forgotten.
I have been following Promethean Action for the last 18 months. Well researched and rational reporting that “connects the dots.”
B. Boyd: “…many Republicans can’t explain President Trump’s fundamental attack on the cause of these high prices…”
Well, as we know, many “republicans” are actually democrats that can’t win in a republican district, so they pose as populists long enough and well-funded by corporations to get elected, but then they line up with democrat principles when they vote in congress.
Implicit in Kennedy’s statement is the existence of a centralized medical record. Not access to your records with doctor A, and with doctor B, etc, but a centralized record. Who is the caretaker of this record? The federal government, thank you John Roberts. /s
Not a fan of Big Brother. No one should have this power over you.
Meanwhile, a big plant closes in Dayton Ohio and jobs are lost. Few good reasons for Republican voters in Ohio to show up. I hope they will.
Always like barbara boyd’s words and promethean updates. good stuff.
