Just Call Me Frank

I don't know what difference it'll make if it's going to take nearly 4 months to deliver. I'm guessing they're hoping for a positive market response without people realizing how long it will take.

Oh lord.

They were supposed to be topping it up.
He, unsurprisingly, was not.

Idk they call it the "Strategic Petroleum Reserve". I know little about oil production though. For now. Crude is what they turn into all the other stuff, I think.

After all these days it's still a bit shocking that every new day so many wealthy apparently accomplished people show themselves publicly to the world to be such stupid toadies.

Follow-up:
And what *would* that look like?

What the fuck has that scam artist actually done for this country? What a load.

Agreeing that it can be a war without being officially declared a war, would be a great fucking start.

That's the only thing that makes sense. Especially since our reserves aren't that plentiful. If we really release 170m barrels it's almost half of what we have in reserves.

For real though, why is it going to take 120 days?

Trump promised to fill America’s oil reserves ‘right to the top.’ A year later, oil has exceeded $100 and they’re still less than 60% full | Fortune As gasoline prices rise in the US, the strategic oil reserve is nowhere near full capacity.

📍"The reserve currently holds 416 million barrels of crude oil, out of a maximum capacity of 714 million barrels—around 58%, according to the Department of Energy’s latest inventory report from Feb. 18. Since Trump began his second term, the reserve’s volume has only risen by around 5%."

Omg
I have not seen those. Eww.

With gas prices (and everything else) being so freakin high selling feet pics ain't looking so bad

I suck at thumbnails. 😆
I thought the one I did for the pesticide regulation video two weeks was one of my best and it's got no traction.
I'm looking forward to seeing what yours looks like. 😊

Bluesky is just Twitter’s retirement community

You'll need to be more specific 😆

US to release 172 million barrels of oil from strategic petroleum reserve The U.S. will ​release 172 million barrels of oil from its strategic ‌petroleum reserve in a bid to reduce oil prices that have soared due to supply shocks from the U.S.-Israeli war on ​Iran, U.S. Ene...

First, the USA uses 20+ million barrels of petroleum a day per the Department of Energy (2023).

Second...120 DAYS?!

"Wright said the release will begin next week and will take about 120 days to deliver."

In South Burlington, Vermont, protesters are being tear-gassed by ICE and local police as they attempt to prevent a kidnapping.

You'll meet some cool new fleshy people!

I doubt he did. Like now, when does he ever see a fucking gas station. Someone told him, he noticed nothing.

They were probably understaffed like we were. I got overworked and had a mental health event.
It was really weird randomly picking and pulling people from the lines and going through their belongings.

It's a weird experience being exposed to so much raw information knowing we're living through something so big, so historical, so insane, that it's going to change the world.
I don't like it.

The end of this year will be the most consequential any of us have ever experienced. Stay focused and nimble.

As another shutdown impacts travelers, some see privatizing TSA screening as a solution Some of the nation’s busiest airports saw hourslong security lines this weekend, as the partial government shutdown begins to hit air travel.

You know what TSA was before it was TSA?
100% privatized and operated by security companies.
I used to do that job.

When Right-wing Media has 80% of News Media we're in a fucking world of hurt and deception.

ESPECIALLY if he might have to take some responsibility for it.

The knucklehead who is a genius who knows everything always knows nothing when bad news shows up!

Our FBI has less credibility than the National Enquirer.
That's where we're at.

The TV in my hotel room tonight had CNN on when I turned on the TV. I watched a few minutes and I swear it's just Fox News now.
