Trump Did This
I was outraged when home heating oil jumped from $4/gal. to $5. Now it’s up to $6. A 50% increase since Trump’s War of Choice with Iran. Fortunately, this is the last delivery I’ll need until Autumn arrives.
I’ll repeat an earlier prediction. Trump will order ground forces into Iran. That’s assuming he isn’t truly mad and threatens to drop a nuke on Tehran.
ReWARding the Family
War for fun and profit. The one positive result of all this is that no Republican politician or voter can ever again point to any Democratic candidate and get away with accusing them of being immoral or corrupt.
I’d Like to Ask a Question
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told reporters at a White House briefing Wednesday that the U.S. plans to ramp up economic pain on Iran, and said the new moves will be the “financial equivalent” of a bombing campaign.

Why wasn’t this done first, before initiating military action? Oh, right. Bibi talked Donald into going to war.

The crisis that Trump created in Iran is a total diplomatic mess. So, of course he’s returning to his comfort zone from The Apprentice, of being the big, bad boss. “You’re Fired!”

The joke is that Trump has no authority to fire Powell.
Threatening the Hormuz Needle
Well, as expected, the non-political homepage sure didn’t last long.
Trump vows to ‘kill’ Iranian warships that near US blockade of ports
Warships? What warships? He said Iran’s navy was obliterated!
