I discussed Trump and Vlad with Russians whilst in Russia and they agree with me.
They are both strong leaders that rule their countries and are not puppets for the oligarchs, ie.
Like your Lord and Savior??? Putin?
Wow, and I thought I heard everything.
The Russian Constitution used to allow their presidents two consecutive 4-year terms. Putin has ruled Russia for 23 years.
The way he dealt with this little predicament in 2008 was simple. He installed his puppet Medvedev as a president in 2008 while having made himself the prime minister. Then they traded back in 2012.
In 2018, he got his Duma (the Parliament) and Supreme Court do away with the Constitution limits altogether. He has full power now, more consolidated than what Russian czars had in the 19-century.
Putin has assassinated, attempted to assassinate and imprisoned scores of journalists and opposition leaders. He has started three wars and completely wiped out all forms of political discourse and free speech in Russia. Under his rule, Russia has become the world's gas station. It's lost all its technological prowess it acquired in 1940-1980. Russia has to import practically everything except for fuel and grains.
Despite the most favorable gas prices in history during most of his rule, Russia is still an impoverished country outside of a handful of its most prosperous cities, such as Moscow, St. Petersburg and a few others. It's also one of the most outrageously corrupt countries in the world.
But hey, as long as you've found your Jesus, go for it. Like Russians say, love is a cutthroat - fall with a goat.

And you say Putin doesn't allow a free press? The USA doesn't have one either.

Hunter Biden co-founded a firm called Rosemont Seneca in 2009, but the partnership with Thornton even though it uses the Rosemont Seneca name could exist without other partners in Rosemont Seneca having a stake. A business partner could have created this entity on his own. Without the ownership documents of Rosemont Seneca Thornton which are not public we simply can't know.All that drivel and the answer on a $3.5 million sleazy loan is "we can't know". Yeah, I think when it comes to Hunter Biden innocent until proven guilty should be suspended not with regards to any criminal matters but certainly it should be in the eye of the public.
Are these the same POS fact checkers that said the laptop was Russian disinformation?
Here is World Oil data which proves you only fabricated your lies.
World Oil Data: Canada holds 170,863,000,000 barrels of proven oil reserves as of 2016, ranking 3rd in the world and accounting for about 10.4% of the world's total oil reserves of 1,650,585,140,000 barrels.
Canada has proven reserves equivalent to 188.3 times its annual consumption. This means that, without Net Exports, there would be about 188 years of oil left (at current consumption levels and excluding unproven reserves).It is one thing to quote the amount of Canada's reserves and quite another to magically come up with 830,000 BPD from that.
It sounds like you believe that just because someone has something but haven't done anything with it then it is somehow available.
This sounds suspiciously like President Biden's proposed tax on unrealized capital gains. I thought that all Republicans were against that.
And, for your information, the US is not now, was not under the Orange Buffoon and was not at any time in the past "energy independent".

So first off, we have these intelligence "experts" and the tech companies ganging up and saying Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian disinformation and censoring it. When the Republicans control Congress in 2022, these groups are going to get hammered. Because just like in 2016 with Comey, we have this fucking disgusting group of swamp creatures trying to influence an election.
And the Democrats think Putin has more influence than this group or Comey. They are so brain dead.
And now there is this article, https://www.theepochtimes.com/voting-integrity-group-uncovers-over-137000-ballots-that-were-trafficked-in-wisconsin_4369214.html?utm_source=morningbriefnoe&utm_campaign=mb-2022-04-02&utm_medium=email&est=0M6vhRuIkuuL%2BC6hJuTSP27iNicklj4WA4PaZuXLUGCkj0i8aWFGUVV6XYT1rdw%3D.
Based on his 15-month study of election practices in Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Michigan, Phillips estimates that at least 4. 8 million votes were trafficked nationally.
Earlier in March, the report of special counsel Michael Gabelman on voter fraud revealed that some personnel of nongovernmental organizations are suspected of coordinating the 2020 ballot harvesting operations in Wisconsin's five largest heavily Democrat-run cities Milwaukee, Kenosha, Green Bay, Madison, and Racine.
Does that surprise anyone?
So yeah, we know that there were 4. 8 million votes illegally harvested, but we do not know who got those votes: Trump or Clinton. And before you could claim fraud in an election, you would need to know this.
But really we know what happened don't we? We Republicans cannot prove it but we know, and the people on 1-6 knew as well. The truth is the Democrats cannot run a fair high school election.
My attitude is that the Dems got away with this one, but they sure as hell are not the next few times around.

Strange you accuse me of being a liar for not having commented at all on your meaningless oil reserve comments. You obviously have a reading and comprehension problem. Canada does not have the mining or processing capacity to increase production. Even if they did they would still have no trouble exporting it. See having huge reserves of anything is irrelevant if you cannot extract it at a rate that meets the market demand. There is more than enough rail capacity to clear all the Canadian so once again you have proven to be wrong.There are thousands of drilling rigs stacked in Canada and USA. Drilling can ramp up quickly in both countries to easily increase production by 2,000,000 barrels a day within a year. Canada would have increased their production by 1 million barrels a day last year of the pipeline had not been cancelled. There is not a lot of excess production available because Biden has killed almost ever pipeline proposed in last 2 years. There is not a lot of exploration being done because Biden is trying to kill the oil and gas industry. Biden is the reason oil companies are not drilling. Biden is the reason that the USA has to use their emergency oil reserves to try to hold pricing from increasing again. This is not a good thing. Biden is begging other countries to drill more wells but blocking domestic drilling and pipelines. Canada and the USA are the leaders in technology in drilling and extracting oil and gas. Other countries are antiquated and don't care about the environment at all. Biden begging other countries to drill rather than have USA produce oil is totally contradicting his climate concerns. Biden is a joke. Expect gas to go higher. Expect oil companies to drill in other countries and employ thousands of workers in other countries to meet the USA demand. Let Biden be a puppet to OPEC and Saudi oil. Let Biden boost the economies of our enemies that hate us so we can buy their oil and use the money against us. We are going to be dependent on crude oil for decades. A Republican president will have to fix Biden messes. Yes Biden will be millions into poverty and many will not be able to afford $7-$10 a gallon gas. They will not be able to afford good. Stupid people keep defending him. Biden is counting on a lot of stupidity for votes in 22. Looks like he has yours.
Interesting pattern. A mysterious, inexplicable "business cycle"? Bad Repub luck with jobs? A witch's curse on Repubs?
Nope, nope and nopadope.
It's just plain ol' crappy Repub economic stewardship and legislation vs far, far superior Dem economic stewardship and legislation proven over and over again.
Or, as typically pro Repub Mainstream Media whose financial fortunes rely on helping their beloved Repubs get elected so they will inevitably produce those much desired scary "Disaster"! "Crash"! "Unprecedented Losses"! Headlines for them would put it, "Further evidence that Republicans seem to handle the economy better than Democrats. Now, quick! Get out there and vote"!
LOL.
"U.S. hot streak on jobs continues as unemployment rate falls".
For the first time on record, the U.S. economy has now had 11 straight monthly jobs gains above 400,000.
Note, the U.S. economy has now had 11 straight monthly jobs gains above 400,000. According to a Wall Street Journal report, thats never happened since the government started maintaining national jobs records in 1939. ..I see you are still dreaming in Fantasyland. Unfortunately people living in USA have the Biden nightmare. 71% of the people think Biden is doing a bad job on the economy. Even democrats think Biden job on the economy is not good. People have 2 jobs and still can't afford gas and food. But there you are in dreamland fabricating fairytales.

Biden is counting on a lot of stupidity for votes in 22. Looks like he has yours.Yes you are correct. USA and Canada are the leaders on technology in oil and gas industry. Our market analysts state that less than 40% of drilling rigs are operating now. With USA production down over 1 million barrels a day and the void of the 830,000 barrels a day from Canada we are forced to go to OPEC, Saudi, Iran and Venezuela to buy oil. These countries are not stupid like Biden cultists. They know USA will buy the oil at any price. That is why companies like Chevron and Exxon are putting their exploration money into other countries. Investing billions in other countries. Employing workers in other countries. Paying taxes in other countries. The oil companies are making billions and Biden can take credit for it. On tv Biden talks tough and blames the oil companies for overcharging but he is totally to blame.

They can not accept reality when it runs counter to their views. They are irrational. But who cares?
The 2022 mid term election is coming and the Woke Marxist Democratic party is going to take a beating and deservedly so. Rational Democrats know this and hopefully they will be able to understand what went wrong. It will be up to them to try to pick up the pieces of their shattered party after the left wing radicals go down in defeat. But the 2022 election will only put the breaks on the radical's insane agenda. Americans will have to soundly defeat the Democrat Party in the 2024 Presidential election before we can begin to repair the damage that the Biden Administration has done to the country. Until then things are only going to get worse.

Biden is counting on a lot of stupidity for votes in 22. Looks like he has yours.Firstly the Canadian oil sands are mined not drilled which clearly shows your ignorance. Prior to the pandemic the oil sands industry was in crisis as the breakeven for this supply is over $50 per barrel and this oil being bituminous has lower yields and is more costly to refine so sells at a steep discount. To increase production requires major investment in mining equipment and processing plants to separate the oil from the sand and convert it to a form that can be transported (all of which is expensive and energy intensive). The fact that even at current pricing this oil isn't very profitable and that the Canadian government have legislated commitments to reduce greenhouse gases of which oil sands mining is a huge emitter means there is great reluctance to expand capacity. I know economics and managements are your weak points but sorry political rhetoric does not drive investment decisions. I am glad though that you have finally admitted that there is not currently the production capacity in Canada to require the Keystone XL pipeline.
I'm glad you also recognise the rigs that are currently laying idle after the great Trump inspired oil price meltdown of 2020. Amazing isn't it that they are not drilling. Why are they not drilling? Well according to the industry, investors are wanting dividends and share buybacks and do not want companied overcommitting to expanding production which had previously led to the 600 bankruptcies and hundreds of billions of losses during Trumps presidency. There is also a shortage of workers. After the big bankruptcy surge under Trump many people in the industry went and found other jobs. The cost of incentivizing a return of people to man the rigs makes drilling more expensive and the oil companies looking to increase dividends and buy backs don't want to pay for it. So basically the oil industry is happy with the current pricing and production and have little to no incentive to do anything about it. As we also know that current production is sitting around 1 mbpd less than under Trump and several pipelines have since been completed it is clear that there is more than sufficient pipeline capacity to handle a significantly greater output. Now a talented stock market investor would know this as it is common knowledge from guidance provided by oil companies on their earnings and production guidance.
So as the oil industry has shown itself incapable of acting in the public interest, Biden has now invoked the Defence Act to encourage the supply of materials for EVs which will accelerate the production of EVs and reduce the impact of oil price disruptions to the economy. Well done Biden on this insightful move to improve the environment while marginalising the oil industry to hold the economy to ransom.

Only 6% of those CEOs attributed lack of production growth to government regulation, such as state or federal safeguards that protect our health and water and climate.
And more: In late 2020, a Devon Energy executive said on an investor call that "we have a deep inventory of approved federal permits in hand that essentially cover all of our desired activity over the next presidential term. " he was referring to the temporary pause President Joe Biden and Interior Secretary Deb Haaland wisely put in place on the issuance of new federal leases last year in order to review the climate and budgetary impacts of these leases.
Who would have thought that the real reason for lack of production growth was the free market and not Biden or pipelines or leases. I wonder how many times Canada's lies needs to be knocked to the mat before he scurries away in shame.
Epoch, OAN, Sputnik, Russia Today. I say these clowns are discrediting themselves more efficiently than anyone else could.They call these rightwingnut and Russian "sources" good? You are absolutely correct in saying that they are discrediting themselves more efficiently than anyone else could.
It is so easy to be a Republican anymore. All they need to to is yell "fake new" and the rest of the idiot rightwingnuts start drooling.
I see you are still dreaming in Fantasyland. Unfortunately people living in USA have the Biden nightmare. 71% of the people think Biden is doing a bad job on the economy. Even democrats think Biden job on the economy is not good. People have 2 jobs and still can't afford gas and food. But there you are in dreamland fabricating fairytales.And 65% of adults in America belong to a club that believes there once was a snake that could talk.

Self delusion is a horrible malady!The real problem is that people like you believe the crap you read at these off-the-wall media sites. You think it is the truth because it reinforces the crazy notions that you already have. An old boss called it "breathing your own exhaust".
There are two articles here from Forbes and from MakeUseOf. The latter uses ratings from https://www.allsides.com/unbiased-balanced-news. The two articles are: https://www.forbes.com/sites/berlinschoolofcreativeleadership/2017/02/01/10-journalism-brands-where-you-will-find-real-facts-rather-than-alternative-facts/?sh=1dba9c06e9b5 and https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/trust-news-sites/.
Here's an excerpt from Forbes. "One key question for any publication is this: If a reporter gets facts in a story wrong, will the news outlet investigate a complaint and publish a correction? Does the publication have its own code of ethics? Or does it subscribe to and endorse the Society of Professional Journalist's code of ethics? And if a reporter or editor seriously violates ethical codes. Such as being a blatant or serial plagiarizer, fabulist or exaggerator. Will they be fired at a given news outlet? While some may criticize mainstream media outlets for a variety of sins, top outlets such as the Washington Post, the New York Times, NBC News and the New Republic have fired journalists for such ethics violations."
Interesting questions, are they not? I'd bet money that none of the sources that you or any other rightwingnut moron on this form reads can answer yes to all of these questions. The probably can't even answer yes to any of the questions. Except the Russian sources that you, yourself, often post. But if they fire a reporter it is because the reporter covered a topic the wrong was and was stood up against a wall and shot.
Forbes goes on to say: "Realizing that millions more people are scratching their heads, wondering what to read and where to spend their subscription dollars, here are my top 10 large journalistic brands where I believe you can most often find real, reported facts:
1. The New York Times.
This is the most influential newspaper in the USA In my view. Its editorial page and some of its news coverage take a left-leaning, progressive view of the world. But the NYT also hews to ethical standards of reporting and the classic elements of journalism in America. That's what helps the NYT remain, arguably, the agenda-setting news organization in America. It is a leader in business, politics and culture coverage. *.
2. The Wall Street Journal.
The largest circulation newspaper in the USA, the WSJ made its bones as a business newspaper and pioneered new types of feature writing in American journalism (for example, its quirky middle-column feature called the "Ahed" and longer form, in-depth reports called "leders" As the company was purchased by Australian media mogul Rupert Murdoch in 2007, the WSJ pivoted to cover more general news in addition to business news. The WSJ is still brand X among daily business publications in the world. Its editorial page is a bastion of American free-market conservatism, using the motto, "free markets, free people. " With former Republican speechwriters and strategists such as Karl Rove, Peggy Noonan and Bill McGurn writing columns, the WSJ editorial page is often a must-read for Republicans in Washington. And left-leaning readers should not dismiss the WSJ edit page just because they may disagree with its positions. It has won several Pulitzer Prizes for editorials and columns that feature a clear thesis, backed up by thorough fact-based reporting and bold arguments.
3. The Washington Post.
The newspaper that brought down President Richard Nixon with its reporting on the Watergate scandal in the early 1970's maintains its intellectually robust tradition under the new ownership of Amazon.com founder Jeff Bezos. The Post has, for decades, been part of the big three national papers. A peer of the NYT and WSJ. In terms of winning Pulitzer Prizes, hiring the best and brightest reporters and producing big scoops. Of the big three, the Post is arguably the most forward-thinking right now in trying new digital strategies that have boosted readership. And with Bezos' backing, the Post is on a hiring binge for talented reporters while the NYT and WSJ have been pruning their reporting staffs in recent months. Most people think the Post editorial page leans left but is often regarded as more center left than the NYT. *.
4. BBC.
The BBC is the global standard bearer for excellence in broadcast radio and TV journalism. If only USA Cable news outlets could follow BBC's recipe. And while PBS produces some great entertainment, documentary and news programs, its news programs have often seemed to lack the creative energy of the BBC. While NPR produces some fantastic journalism, a bulk of its news coverage seem to come from re-reporting news from the New York Times and the Associated Press. And the American public perceives NPR to be more left-leaning than the BBC.
5. The Economist.
Another British export, the Economist magazine is staffed with excellent economists and journalists who produce a tightly-edited, factually rigorous account of what's happening in the world each week. One oddity is that the Economist doesn't publish bylines of their writers so you never know who exactly wrote a given piece.
6. The New Yorker.
This American treasure publishes sophisticated narrative non-fiction pieces from top writers and reporters each week in a print magazine and, increasingly, on other platforms. The New Yorker is smartly expanding its audience on the web, offering to the masses content that used to be open only to its print subscribers. The magazine itself runs a piece of fiction each week (identifies it as such). The long-form non-fiction reports on politics, culture, business and other topics often take months to report, write and fact check. The result is deep reporting and analysis each week that is hard to find elsewhere. And the narrative structures and techniques the writers use make for enjoyable reading. Similar to the Times, the New Yorker presents a progressive view of the world. Conservative readers should recognize that but not let it detract from them enjoying some of the best reporting and writing happening in the world. *.
7. Wire Services: The Associated Press, Reuters, Bloomberg News.
You can't exactly "subscribe" to these wire services. But you can trust reports from these organizations to be factual. They provide a backbone of news and information flows about politics and the economy. And their member organizations that surface their reports benefit from this reporting. You can follow these organizations on social media and can also follow certain reporters for these organizations who report on topics of interest to you. These wire services also do have web sites and mobile apps you can use to stay abreast the news. *.
8. Foreign Affairs.
This bi-monthly magazine is published by the Council on Foreign Relations. It's a serious magazine for people who want intelligence on global affairs. The magazine and its many digital platforms benefits from submissions, dialogue, differing views and analysis from the many top minds on international relations.
9. The Atlantic.
This is another national treasure, a monthly magazine that presents a view of the nation and world from Washington the. See. It is informed by many top journalists who write long-form features and also write some analysis. The Atlantic web site sometimes hews to clickable headlines. But the magazine and its parent company also subscribe to American journalism principles of fact-based reporting.
10. Politico.
Founded by reporters who left the Washington Post in 2006, Politico has built itself into a crucial player in politics reporting in the USA (and with expansions to Europe). It does publish some products in print, but Politico is easily accessible on the Internet and mobile devices. Keep an eye on Axios, a news startup launched this year by two founders of Politico.
* Disclosures: Earlier in my career, I interned at the Associated Press and the Washington Post. I worked as a staff writer at the Wall Street Journal between 2001-2011. I have also published free-lance articles in the Post, the New York Times and the New Yorker (website) as well as some of the publications listed in the runner up lists.
Runners Up:
- National Public Radio.
- TIME magazine.
-The Christian Science Monitor.
- The LOS Angeles Times (and many other regional, metropolitan daily newspapers).
- USA Today.
- CNN.
- NBC News.
- CBS News.
- ABC News.
Business News Sources:
- FORBES magazine.
- Bloomberg BusinessWeek magazine.
- Fortune magazine.
- The Financial Times newspaper.
Sources of reporting and opinion from the right of the political spectrum:
- National Review.
- The Weekly Standard.
Sources of reporting and opinion from the left of the political spectrum:
- The New Republic.
- The Nation".
What is interesting about this list is that you, Elvis, Canada, Axe Hole and the rest of the lunatic fringe will call all of these sources "fake news". Just watch the responses that they post in response to this post.
See, that's where the problem lies. When 75% of the population says that the sources above are, by and large, fair sources and 25% of the population says "they're all fake news", who is right? It reminds me of the very old WWI song called "They Were All Out of Step But Jim". The song depicts a mother and father of a soldier gloating to their friends after seeing their son marching. They declare their joy in the chorus, oblivious to the humor of the song's title:
"Did you see my little Jimmy marching with the soldiers up the avenue?
There was Jimmy just as stiff as starch like his Daddy on the seventeenth of March.
Did you notice all the lovely ladies casting their eyes on him?
Away he went to live in a tent over in France with his regiment.
Were you there, and tell me, did you notice?
They were all out of step but Jim. "
In case you don't know, the rightwingnuts are the Mother and Father in the song.
And 65% of adults in America belong to a club that believes there once was a snake that could talk.Evangelicals usually believe that but they are only about 30% of Americans. And there's plenty of variety among Christian theists, many who'd recognize the mythical, non-literal nature of many of the biblical accounts, especially those regarding creation and Adam and Eve. This while embracing the lessons taught. Don't toss the baby with the bath water. Also given the beauty and complexity of the universe it's reasonable to at least suspect there may be some higher intelligence behind it. You can forward your leftist causes without attacking religion, which just makes you come across bitter and as intolerant as the rightwingnut mongers you invest hours each day opposing.
Just because you don't want to accept it isn't our problem, ISG Baghdad Bob!
Calling us clowns doesn't make the truth any less true, you Biden asslicker.
Self delusion is a horrible malady!You said it well. Everybody agrees with your analogy.
And 65% of adults in America belong to a club that believes there once was a snake that could talk.Biden keeps saying that also. He can't believe that his numbers on the economy are so bad when he thinks he is doing a good job. Unfortunately all the independents and republicans disagree with him and 30% of the democrats disagree. He got blasted today for touting his jobs report. Which still shows less people are working now than pre pandemic Trump presidency. All these democrat states closed businesses and laid off millions of employees during the pandemic and now they are returning to work. They were earning $2000 to $3000 more during Trump presidency with Trump tax cut but now they are paying $5500 more per year with inflation. Great job Joe. No new jobs created and people returning to their old job are $3000 poorer. And you brag about it. Let's go Brandon.
Firstly the Canadian oil sands are mined not drilled which clearly shows your ignorance. Prior to the pandemic the oil sands industry was in crisis as the breakeven for this supply is over $50 per barrel and this oil being bituminous has lower yields and is more costly to refine so sells at a steep discount. To increase production requires major investment in mining equipment and processing plants to separate the oil from the sand and convert it to a form that can be transported (all of which is expensive and energy intensive). The fact that even at current pricing this oil isn't very profitable and that the Canadian government have legislated commitments to reduce greenhouse gases of which oil sands mining is a huge emitter means there is great reluctance to expand capacity. I know economics and managements are your weak points but sorry political rhetoric does not drive investment decisions. I am glad though that you have finally admitted that there is not currently the production capacity in Canada to require the Keystone XL pipeline..Above post is stupidity in its finest. Canada oil does not all come from the oil sands. The majority is discovered by drilling rigs just like in the USA and the rest of the world. Oil from the oil sands is probably at $30-40 a barrel. Oil is at $100. It may be clear to you and Biden that your lies and his lies are why oil companies are not drilling but the rest of the world doesn't believe it.
I am VP of one of the biggest financial companies in the USA and most of my customers are savvy investors. They know that when the president of the USA tries to kill an industry like oil and gas that shortages will come and oil will skyrocket. I convinced about 70% of my customers to load up on major oil stocks shortly after Biden took office. Returns were 60-80% in 2021 and they are up 35-40% already this year. Plus they pay 3-7% dividends. Exxon is walking away from a billion dollar project in Russia and will take a loss of 1 billion in 2022 but Biden made sure their profits everywhere else in the world would go up $3 billion. Don't tell me investors are worried about new drilling because that is an outright lie. Investors want them to produce as much as they can.
For EV business to take a 40% share of the industry will take at least 20 years. Do you think Americans can survive with $10 a gallon gas and record inflation. Of course not. That is why the democrats are going to get killed in November. To get rid of this stupidity.

Show me one name on that list that isn't pro mass unlimited illegal immigration.
Every name is bought and paid for by the Davos crowd including the Nation.
Tell me your opinion of it, oh wait don't bother.
I'm sure its the same as the rest of these scumbags.
Illegal immigration the more the better, correct.
https://mises.org/library/bernie-koch-brothers-and-open-borders
BTW I voted for Bernie in the primary in 2016 and Our Lord and Savior in the general election.
The far left and far right are both out to destroy the USA.
1 illegal at a time.
Or in Bidens case 1 million illegals at a time.
A gift to the oligarchs for giving him the title POTUS.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Have you no self respect?
Look at your list.
WSJ Murdoch.
WAPO Bozo.
And Bloomberg et al.
All propaganda for the Davos / Billionaires agenda.
After this list I will put you on ignore.
You're incapable of having an intelligent conversation.
Your list is so childishly biased I'm pretty sure there isn't even one outlet that calls illegal immigration illegal.
Yes you are correct. USA and Canada are the leaders on technology in oil and gas industry. Our market analysts state that less than 40% of drilling rigs are operating now. With USA production down over 1 million barrels a day and the void of the 830,000 barrels a day from Canada we are forced to go to OPEC, Saudi, Iran and Venezuela to buy oil. These countries are not stupid like Biden cultists. They know USA will buy the oil at any price. That is why companies like Chevron and Exxon are putting their exploration money into other countries. Investing billions in other countries. Employing workers in other countries. Paying taxes in other countries. The oil companies are making billions and Biden can take credit for it. On tv Biden talks tough and blames the oil companies for overcharging but he is totally to blame.The blind leading the blind. Two of the least knowledgeable people on the planet when it comes to the oil industry congratulating themselves on their nonsense. Provide one scrap of evidence that Canadian producers have any surplus oil they could send to the US. You cannot because they are selling everything they can.
Evangelicals usually believe that but they are only about 30% of Americans. And there's plenty of variety among Christian theists, many who'd recognize the mythical, non-literal nature of many of the biblical accounts, especially those regarding creation and Adam and Eve.

You can forward your leftist causes without attacking religion, which just makes you come across bitter and as intolerant as the rightwingnut mongers you invest hours each day opposing.Hours each day? Hardly.
If Canada believes "71% of Americans" know the data, the actual record of results and have honestly assessed their own situation today vs what all of it was on January 20, 2021 and "know" Biden has done a bad job on the economy rather than having been bamboozled into that belief by pro Repub Mainstream Media then he definitely believes there once was a snake that could talk, that there is a Santa Claus in the sky and that there has ever been a Repub in the WH whose economic results outperformed rather than grossly underperformed that of the Dem on either side of his presidency on any important metric for the past 100 years or so.
Just because you don't want to accept it isn't our problem, ISG Baghdad Bob!
Calling us clowns doesn't make the truth any less true, you Biden asslicker.
Self delusion is a horrible malady!Accept what? What's that mysterious IT that am I supposed to accept, LOL?
And yes you're right. Calling you clowns doesn't make the truth any less true. For people seeking "the truth" in Sputnik or RT are clowns.

With a senile political hack (and a garbling non-entity) as their Front should at this point raise the concern the whatever is directing this Administration is intentionally destroying the USD as world reserve currency. No US braintrust could be so stupidly incompetent as to implement policy that could be easily used against them as the Russians have done. Getting the dollar inflated out of the way is the logical next step towards implementation of the Digital Currency.

No new jobs created and people returning to their old job are $3000 poorer. And you brag about it. Let's go Brandon.Trump's economic decisions had wiped out millions upon millions of jobs in the USA and around the world, destroying global Supply Chains along the way by January 20, 2021.
Even the imaginary Santa Claus in the sky with his talking snake that I know you believe in could not have waved a magic Christmas wand and produced a recovery from Trump's colossally disastrous economic stewardship results without triggering significant inflation.
Economic conditions today are many multiple times better than when Trump was wiping out more jobs than had been created several years before he became so-called potus on his way out.
Above post is stupidity in its finest. Canada oil does not all come from the oil sands. The majority is discovered by drilling rigs just like in the USA and the rest of the world. Oil from the oil sands is probably at $30-40 a barrel. Oil is at $100. It may be clear to you and Biden that your lies and his lies are why oil companies are not drilling but the rest of the world doesn't believe it.

Drilling 100 m holes for mineral resource exploration is much different form drill holes several thousand meters for exploring and extracting oil via the drill hole. Canadian oil sands are mined. See the simple little video put out by none other than the Canadian oi industry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxiA40XHF0I, and here is a factual quotation for you about costs:
Oil sands are among the world's most expensive hydrocarbon resources, and the heavy, sulfur-rich crude fetches a lower price than the "light sweet" crude that sets the benchmark for the value of oil. In mid-February, a barrel of Western Canadian Select was selling at $12/ barrel less than the USA Benchmark, West Texas International (WTI crude). (See real-time prices.).
The oil sands industry has been walking a difficult balance between the high cost of production and its value on the open market. In 2014, the cost to produce oil sands crude was more than $60 per barrel (expressed in WTI terms), but improvements and efficiencies have brought costs down to $46 to $53 per barrel, according to one estimate, and the mid $40's, by another. Nevertheless, the margins are thin in the best of times, and the industry incurred billions in debt in 2020 when a barrel of Canadian crude was worth less than a bottle of inexpensive wine.
Now if you were a clever investor you would invested in lithium and rare earth stocks that have at least doubled your returns.
So you are trying to tell us you are the VP of an investment firm and that shareholders are only concerned about production and not profit and return on investment and you call me stupid, LOLOL.
Above post is stupidity in its finest. Canada oil does not all come from the oil sands. The majority is discovered by drilling rigs just like in the USA and the rest of the world. Oil from the oil sands is probably at $30-40 a barrel. Oil is at $100. It may be clear to you and Biden that your lies and his lies are why oil companies are not drilling but the rest of the world doesn't believe it..Canada, the country produces about 5 million bpd of oil. Of that 5 million barrels, about 100,000 bpd comes from offshore drilling, and about 1. 5 million bpd comes from drilling conventional wells. The remainder comes from unconventional production such as oil sands, shale, fracking, etc.
Therefore, "the majority" of Canada's production doesn't come from drilling at all. And you lied. https://www2.deloitte.com/us/en/pages/energy-and-resources/articles/exploration-and-production-in-canada.html.
You are a VP? At a "financial institution"? Where they hand out VP titles like candy and where everybody but tellers and janitors are VP's? What a hoot.
But sure, let's ignore industry experts who say that the lack of drilling comes from financial pressures from investors to show more profit. And by all means, let's focus on the API's propaganda that "drill, baby, drill" is the way forward. After all, if you'd invested a dollar in 2016 in oil company stocks, you'd have lost about 60% of your investment by the start of 2021. If you'd invested the same dollar in the S&P 500, you'd have doubled your money.
What an idiot you are.
The blind leading the blind. Two of the least knowledgeable people on the planet when it comes to the oil industry congratulating themselves on their nonsense. Provide one scrap of evidence that Canadian producers have any surplus oil they could send to the US. You cannot because they are selling everything they can.Yep. They are "breathing their own exhaust". The following is a month old but the telling portion of the report is: "They can sit with their feet up right now, with money flowing into their pockets, while hardly working," said Rafi Tahmazian, portfolio manager at Canoe Financial in Calgary, which owns shares in oil sands producers. "Why would they want to be a growth business again?" https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/world-scrambles-oil-canadian-producers-reluctant-spend-growth-2022-03-03/.
But the wingers are "all in" on the API "drill, baby, drill" propaganda.
https://news.yahoo.com/fox-viewers-transformed-watching-cnn-063911332.html
Evidently, a large diet of FUX "NewZ" leads to a belief in idiocy. Unfortunately the study didn't examine other more partisan rightwingnut propaganda outlets. But here is the article:
"Fox News viewers who were paid to watch CNN for 30 days eventually became more skeptical and less likely to buy into fake news, according to a new study.
The study titled "The manifold effects of partisan media on viewers' beliefs and attitudes: A field experiment with Fox News viewers" by David E Brockman and Joshua L Kalla was conducted in September 2020 and published last week.
"Of 763 qualifying participants, we then randomised 40 per cent to treatment group. To change the slant of their media diet, we offered treatment group participants $15 per hour to watch 7 hours of CNN per week, during Sept. 2020, prioritizing the hours at which participants indicated they typically watched Fox News," the study said.
The study found changes in attitudes and policy preferences about Covid-19, evaluations of then president Donald Trump and Republican candidates as well as elected officials.
"Despite regular Fox viewers being largely strong partisans, we found manifold effects of changing the slant of their media diets on their factual beliefs, attitudes, perceptions of issues' importance, and overall political views," the authors of the study said.
They found that participants became more likely to agree that if Donald Trump made a mistake, Fox News would not cover it.
"CNN provided extensive coverage of Covid-19, which included information about the severity of the Covid-19 crisis and poor aspects of Trump's performance handling Covid-19. Fox News covered COVID-19 much less," said the study.
It found that Fox News gave viewers information about why the disease is not a serious threat, while CNN provided a lot more information about the disease itself.
Fox News covered racial issues "extensively but selectively about Biden and other Democrats' supposed positions on them and about outbreaks of violence at protests for racial justice in American cities". The study found that CNN provided little information about either.
The two networks also covered the issue of voting by mail, but again differed on the information provided about it in addition to offering different frames.
A survey was conducted after three days on the participants.
"We found large effects of watching CNN instead of Fox News on participants' factual perceptions of current events (I. E, beliefs) and knowledge about the 2020 presidential candidates' positions," the researchers said. "They discovered changes in attitudes about Donald Trump and Republicans as well as a large effect on their opinions about Covid."
The researchers concluded that this is an effect in part of "partisan coverage filtering", wherein partisan outlets selectively report information, leading viewers to learn a biased set of facts.
"Consistent with this, treated participants concluded that Fox concealed negative information about President Trump. Partisan media does not only present its side an electoral advantage — it may present a challenge for democratic accountability," the study said."

Trump's economic decisions had wiped out millions upon millions of jobs in the USA and around the world, destroying global Supply Chains along the way by January 20, 2021.
Even the imaginary Santa Claus in the sky with his talking snake that I know you believe in could not have waved a magic Christmas wand and produced a recovery from Trump's colossally disastrous economic stewardship results without triggering significant inflation.
Economic conditions today are many multiple times better than when Trump was wiping out more jobs than had been created several years before he became so-called potus on his way out.https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/paradigm-shift-western-media-hasnt-grasped-yet-russian-ruble-relaunched-linked-gold-and?fbclid=IwAR3_bfJo9gojW4VT2a5s3O0uS6CJqp4t6g82WMiKIpkIYu8nmlx7xDSm3vA

New Hampshire Republican Gov. Chris Sununu stole the show Saturday night at the annual Gridiron Club dinner by saying out loud what most Republicans in Washington *privately* whisper about Donald Trump.
"You know, he's probably going to be the next president," Sununu said of Trump, musing about his "experience," "passion," "sense of integrity" and the "rationale" he brought to his tweets. As the room quieted to see where he was going with this, he paused, then yelled: "Nah, I'm just kidding! He's fucking crazy!" The ballroom roared with laughter. "Are you kidding? Come on. You guys are buying that? I love it. He just stresses me out so much! . I'm going to deny I ever said it. "
It didn't stop there: "The press often will ask me if I think Donald Trump is crazy. And I'll say it this way: I don't think he's so crazy that you could put him in a mental institution. But I think if he were in one, he ain't getting out!
Canada, the country produces about 5 million bpd of oil. Of that 5 million barrels, about 100,000 bpd comes from offshore drilling, and about 1. 5 million bpd comes from drilling conventional wells. The remainder comes from unconventional production such as oil sands, shale, fracking, etc.
Therefore, "the majority" of Canada's production doesn't come from drilling at all. And you lied. https://www2.deloitte.com/us/en/pages/energy-and-resources/articles/exploration-and-production-in-canada.html.
You are a VP? At a "financial institution"? Where they hand out VP titles like candy and where everybody but tellers and janitors are VP's? What a hoot.
But sure, let's ignore industry experts who say that the lack of drilling comes from financial pressures from investors to show more profit. And by all means, let's focus on the API's propaganda that "drill, baby, drill" is the way forward. After all, if you'd invested a dollar in 2016 in oil company stocks, you'd have lost about 60% of your investment by the start of 2021. If you'd invested the same dollar in the S&P 500, you'd have doubled your money..You don't have any clue. Do you? You don't even know the difference between drilling and fracking. You don't even know when you frack or when you frack.
I invested almost $1,000,000 in major oil stocks soon after Biden got elected. My return has been over 100% plus they pay dividends also and oil stocks are are still a buy at current prices. I would bet that not one dumb ass democrat bought oil stocks when Biden tried killing the oil industry.
Every intelligent person knows oil companies want to drill as much as possible with $100 oil. They are fighting Biden policies daily to try to increase production. As an investor I want the oil companies to drill as much as possible.

The oil sands industry has been walking a difficult balance between the high cost of production and its value on the open market. In 2014, the cost to produce oil sands crude was more than $60 per barrel (expressed in WTI terms), but improvements and efficiencies have brought costs down to $46 to $53 per barrel, according to one estimate, and the mid $40's, by another. Nevertheless, the margins are thin in the best of times, and the industry incurred billions in debt in 2020 when a barrel of Canadian crude was worth less than a bottle of inexpensive wine.
So you are trying to tell us you are the VP of an investment firm and that shareholders are only concerned about production and not profit and return on investment and you call me stupid, LOLOL.If he has been buying oil type stocks, he has been doing well lately.
The part you left out with regards to oil is which is the cheapest way to transport it and that cost is passed onto the consumer. When Dems are in office, they most care about Warren Buffett and his trains shipping the oil even though it is more expensive than a pipeline.
And I was in West Texas and even there, they had issues with not enough pipeline capacity. There are limits to how many trains and trucks there are. Without pipelines, it may be easier to load up a ship on a sea port in another country than ship oil via train and truck.
And there is this: Although Alberta has already produced over 90% of its conventional crude oil reserves, it has produced only 5% of its oil sands, and its remaining oil sands reserves represent 98% of Canada's established oil reserves.
So the potential then is to produce a ton of oil from Canada. Why not make it as easy and cheap as possible to transport it to the USA where it is needed. Why would you not want to do that versus buy oil from Iran or Venezuela?
The official reason is that pipelines are not safe and could destroy water supplies. The real reason is Republicans specifically the Koch brothers would financially would benefit from more Canadian American pipelines and Democratic king maker Warren Buffet would be hurt. THAT is what is going on.
Biden would rather allow Venezuela and Iran to make money off of oil than American oil companies because the American oil companies tend to support Republicans, and the end result is all Americans are paying more for gasoline.

Cost of oil production varies. Saudis need about $70 a barrel to pay for all their bling etc even though it costs them pennies to extract it. When oil prices are high, they take it from the the tough areas. When they are low, they take it form the easily accessible areas.
Pipeline politics is for the USA to control the world. Russia and China will hopefully save the world and Germany is prepared to fall on an American sword.
Although the world would be better off without the USA, there could be a different play afoot here, to wit to bring rationing etc in as a matter of policy, per the World Economic Forum.

Why would you not want to do that versus buy oil from Iran or Venezuela?.You are correct, it is cheaper to pipe oil than rail it but that is not the case being made by Canada et al. They are arguing that Keystone XL would deliver more oil which it would not under the production capacities. The pipeline would have delivered higher profits to the Canadian producers not lower costs to consumers as the Canadian producers sell at the market price delivered. So basically Keystone XL has minimal impact on the price of gas in the US which is what Canada and Cali keep trying to argue.
Even if there is a pipeline shortage in Texas, production is 1 m bpd less than peak so there is sufficient capacity to increase production without adding Capacity. Pipelines in Texas are governed by Texas and not a federal issue.

Well unlike you I am a mineral processing engineer whose expertise processing minerals. Drilling 100 m holes for mineral resource exploration is much different form drill holes several thousand meters for exploring and extracting oil via the drill hole. Canadian oil sands are mined. See the simple little video put out by none other than the Canadian oi industry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxiA40XHF0I, and here is a factual quotation for you about costs:
Oil sands are among the world's most expensive hydrocarbon resources, and the heavy, sulfur-rich crude fetches a lower price than the "light sweet" crude that sets the benchmark for the value of oil. In mid-February, a barrel of Western Canadian Select was selling at $12/ barrel less than the USA Benchmark, West Texas International (WTI crude). (See real-time prices.).
The oil sands industry has been walking a difficult balance between the high cost of production and its value on the open market. In 2014, the cost to produce oil sands crude was more than $60 per barrel (expressed in WTI terms), but improvements and efficiencies have brought costs down to $46 to $53 per barrel, according to one estimate, and the mid $40's, by another. Nevertheless, the margins are thin in the best of times, and the industry incurred billions in debt in 2020 when a barrel of Canadian crude was worth less than a bottle of inexpensive wine..Investors know that oil companies will make large profits with oil over $100 a barrel. Just like savvy investors knew that when Biden started killing pipelines and drilling a shortage would happen and OPEC and Saudi would start raising prices. The real threat is going to be when Biden wipes out the USA strategic reserve of oil and OPEC and Saudi know we don't have emergency oil. If Biden continues to delay drilling and kill pipelines experts say oil will get to $170 a barrel. No financial firm believes this so Biden will probably open up drilling in USA.
Every smart investor is diversified and invests in oil and gas, financials, mining and every phase of the market but analysts try to advise which sector to invest in before the market reacts and a year ago they analyzed what Biden policies would do and recommended buying oil stocks and oil futures. I personally stay away from oil futures but my recommendations to my clients were oil companies and select service companies. About 70% of my clients loaded up on them and made over 100% returns over the last 12 months. 30% didn't believe it. I believe in wealth creation and my clients are doing very well. I have some very liberal diehard environmentalists customers that absolutely won't invest in oil and gas and their portfolios are down 2% this year. Not bad considering the screwup Biden has created.
USA is going to use more oil and gas over the next 10 years. Regardless of EV oil demand is still increasing over next 10 years. We are either going to produce it domestically cheaper and buy from Canada or we are going to buy from our enemies at double the price. Biden is dumb. He thinks he is supporting green energy by killing oil industry. In fact we don't have adequate green energy yet and families are going into poverty because of Biden policies. That is a fact whether you like it or you don't.
Trump's economic decisions had wiped out millions upon millions of jobs in the USA and around the world, destroying global Supply Chains along the way by January 20, 2021.

Pre pandemic it was the greatest economy ever. China virus killed it possibly on purpose. Biden still has not gotten all the people back to work yet that were working in Trump booming economy. And Trump booming economy had $1.99 gas and zero inflation. Just compare Biden disaster to that. The numbers prove Biden is worst ever.

You are correct, it is cheaper to pipe oil than rail it but that is not the case being made by Canada et al. They are arguing that Keystone XL would deliver more oil which it would not under the production capacities.But you can also sell what you can deliver. If you cut the ability to deliver, especially the lowest cost way to deliver, you cut supply to market and therefore raise the price. Period. And that is what Biden did.
Even if there is a pipeline shortage in Texas, production is 1 m bpd less than peak so there is sufficient capacity to increase production without adding Capacity. Pipelines in Texas are governed by Texas and not a federal issue.That was two or three years ago. I am not sure what it is now. The reason there was a pipeline shortage was how much oil was being produced. It exceeded what everyone imagined, and the region then was the biggest boom town I had ever seen. The needed pipelines were being produced as fast as humanly possible.
The ability for the USA to be energy independent and the technology developed to do that was a black swan, a beneficial event every bit as big as the internet and big tech that followed it. It allowed us to completely change foreign polices that were so damning. We were funding countries which actively supported terrorism, and we had to in order for our economy to thrive.
Biden's polices on oil and energy is pissing that enormous gift and blessing away. It is as dumb of a policy as I have ever seen in my life, and demonizing oil companies as he and Elizabeth Warren have been doing is just beyond stupid.

Trump budget chief holds firm on CDC cuts amid virus outbreak.
March 10, 2020
https://thehill.com/policy/finance/486817-trump-budget-chief-holds-firm-on-cdc-cuts-amid-virus-outbreak/
Vought came under intense questioning from Rep. Matt Cartwright (D-Pa.) at a hearing about President Trumps 2021 budget request. It proposed cutting Health and Human Services funding by $9.5 billion, including a 15 percent cut of $1.2 billion to the CDC and a $35 million decrease to the Infectious Diseases Rapid Response Reserve Funds annual contribution.
The question I have is, are we prepared to fight pandemics if we cut from programs that are specifically designed to prepare for them, including the coronavirus? Cartwright asked.Ya' see, Trump did that to the world because he is such a brilliant businessman:
Trump Defended Cuts to Public-Health Agencies, on Video.
In a press briefing, the president said of public-health professionals, I dont like having thousands of people around when you dont need them.
https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/03/trump-defended-cuts-public-health-agencies/608158/
But video footage resurfaced Tuesday by the British newspaper The Independent makes clear Trumps thinking on public-health agencies.* You have consistently called for enormous cuts to the CDC, the NIH, and the WHO, a White House reporter tells Trump. Youve talked a lot today about how these professionals are excellent, are critical, are necessary. Does this experience give you pause about those cuts?
No, Trump responded. We can get money, we can increase staffwe know all the people. This is a question I asked the doctors before. Some of the people we cut, they havent used for many, many years, and if we have ever need them we can get them very, very quickly. And rather than spending the moneyIm a business person. I dont like having thousands of people around when you dont need them. When we need them, we can get them back very quickly.After all, his other brilliant business decisions only cost American taxpayers $2. 5+ Trillion to produce this highpoint of the Trump presidency, which you laughably referred to as the "greatest economy ever":

Granted, 2019 was a damn sight better economy than the one all of Trump's other disastrous economic decisions and stewardship threw into Biden's lap to fix by the end of his horrific so-called presidency. But "the greatest ever"? It wasn't even in the top half of the previous 11 presidencies. Way, way, way worse than Carter's.
Canada and USA governments are the big problem for oil and gas investors. When you get stupid leaders like Trudeau and Biden investors have to be wary that both leaders will continue to punish their domestic energy. But Trudeau and Biden don't have to worry about inflation and high gas prices. All they have to worry about is keeping their big con job going on their citizens. As long as stupid voters keep voting for them they can live the high life and drive their countries into ruin.You keep changing your tune.
First the problem was cancellation of the "Keystone pipeline" which was bogus because the "Keystone pipeline" was never cancelled or anything else.
Now it is "investors do play a part" which, previously, you pooh-poohed.
After that, what will it be?
The problem with "drill, baby, drill" is that it results in a boom-or-bust cycle. OPEC controls what they produce. US producers don't. That's why many US oil producers, especially the smaller one, nearly went broke a few years ago. But maybe that's what you really want. Produce so much oil that oil prices drop to unsustainable levels and producers go bankrupt.
But you can also sell what you can deliver. If you cut the ability to deliver, especially the lowest cost way to deliver, you cut supply to market and therefore raise the price. Period. And that is what Biden did.
That was two or three years ago. I am not sure what it is now. The reason there was a pipeline shortage was how much oil was being produced. It exceeded what everyone imagined, and the region then was the biggest boom town I had ever seen. The needed pipelines were being produced as fast as humanly possible.
The ability for the USA to be energy independent and the technology developed to do that was a black swan, a beneficial event every bit as big as the internet and big tech that followed it. It allowed us to completely change foreign polices that were so damning. We were funding countries which actively supported terrorism, and we had to in order for our economy to thrive.
Biden's polices on oil and energy is pissing that enormous gift and blessing away. It is as dumb of a policy as I have ever seen in my life, and demonizing oil companies as he and Elizabeth Warren have been doing is just beyond stupid.You still don't get it. There is no problem delivering Canadian oil to US markets. Keeping saying the same thing that is demonstrably untrue does not win the argument. This oil isn't even going into the US market it is being exported. Canada by virtue of the type of oil it produces needs a hefty capital spend to lift production. No one wants to finance it because its the highest cost oil in the world and they have a requirement to reduce their greenhouse emissions which they will not be able to achieve. So the whole Keystone XL pipeline talk is irrelevant as there is no oil available to transport to the US above what is currently available.
The US produced 13 m bpd at its peak. Its currently about 11.9 mbpd. If 2 years ago it was possible to produce 2 mbpd it still is. If more pipelines will be needed in the future it is up to Texas not Biden. If Biden is the problem why are 60% of companies providing guidance that they are focusing on profits and dividends and not on increasing production? Because more production leads to lower prices and they shoot themselves in the foot just like they did during trump when 600 companies went bankrupt. This was happening before Covid, Saudis tried to bankrupt the fracking industry and dropped the oil price to a level that few producers could make money. While it might produce cheap gas for a couple of years it was always unsustainable and the industry isn't going back to that cycle when the can have high share prices, exercise their options and get big bonuses. Its just convenient to whine about Biden to take the heat off themselves.
But you can also sell what you can deliver. If you cut the ability to deliver, especially the lowest cost way to deliver, you cut supply to market and therefore raise the price. Period. And that is what Biden did.

In fact, in 2019, the US imported about 9 million bpd. Oh, who was president then?
Being a "net producer" of petroleum products doesn't mean spit. The US never has been "energy independent" in the truest sense of the word (ie not having to import oil from anywhere). That's just a myth that rightwing nuts choose to believe because the Mango Mussolini said so. https://www.eia.gov/energyexplained/oil-and-petroleum-products/imports-and-exports.php.

In a press briefing, the president said of public-health professionals, I dont like having thousands of people around when you dont need them.It is a good thing that Firemen are funded on a municipal level. Because sure as day follows night he would have cut the funding for Firefighter positions because. "I don't like having thousands of people around when you don't need them".
TrumpShit's economic plan in 2019 & 2020 was to ignore the virus that shit purposefully left the United States vunerable to.
TrumpShit's economic plan for 2019 and 2020 was a total disaster that CaliGuy admits the United States still has not fully recovered from after Joe Biden's record breaking fast job gains.
I agree that TrumpShit left things far worse than when he started.
And TrumpShit's primary attack on 12 incumbent republicans will keep the GOP a defeated minority party in 2022 and beyond.I see you are still in fantasyland. You still can't comprehend what is happening in 2022. Biden has not created one job yet. There are still less people working than during Trump economic boom. That is the reality. People returning to their old jobs is not job creation. If you don't think Biden policies, inflation and high gas prices aren't hurting democrat chances in November you definitely are in fantasyland. To a lot of democrats Trump is looking pretty good right now.

Not for Hoover to FDR, Eisenhower to JFK / LBJ, Nixon / Ford to Carter, Bush2 to Obama or Trump to Biden.
Nobody.
This isn't about inventing new lines of work. People who lose jobs in any industry or even one building and are not told, "No problem. We're just taking a little break. Keep collecting your pay until further notice", lost their jobs. Period.
The economy that gets that business up, running and thriving enough to hire again has created a job even if they rehire the same people. Period.
You keep changing your tune.
First the problem was cancellation of the "Keystone pipeline" which was bogus because the "Keystone pipeline" was never cancelled or anything else.
Now it is "investors do play a part" which, previously, you pooh-poohed.
After that, what will it be?
The problem with "drill, baby, drill" is that it results in a boom-or-bust cycle. OPEC controls what they produce. US producers don't. That's why many US oil producers, especially the smaller one, nearly went broke a few years ago. But maybe that's what you really want. Produce so much oil that oil prices drop to unsustainable levels and producers go bankrupt.I think everyone wants oil prices to be in the $75 range where oil companies are profitable and consumers aren't paying $5 a gallon for gas. History in the oil industry has always had a boom and a bust but usually 10-15 of stability in between the booms and busts. Right now the only solution to fix USA problem is to drill and get USA to energy stability. The world is watching a weak America now dependent on oil from our enemies. USA and Canada can make North America energy independent with drilling and added pipelines at a competitive price. Biden has made a commitment to green energy environmentalists to kill the oil and gas industries and the American people are paying the price. Biden is driving millions of people into poverty. Increasing drilling by 25% and fast tracking 4 or 5 new pipelines would get USA out of this mess within a year. Not doing it is going to keep USA with high gas prices for 3 more years. That is the reality. You may not like reality and you probably want to blame someone other than Biden but facts are facts and Biden is the problem.

This is an interesting read from The Third Wave. The text is below but not the charts. For those, you'll need to go to https://www.thirdway.org/report/the-red-state-murder-problem.
The gist of the whole article is that the rightwingnut contention that "blue" states have higher crime rates than "red" states and / or that "blue" cities have higher crime rates than "red" cities isn't worth the breath that it takes to say the lie. Of course, we all know where the lie came from. And that's the rightwingnuts.
"Every news outlet from FOX to CNN to The New York Times to local newspapers has a story with attention-grabbing headlines like "US cities hit all-time murder records. " Fox News and Republicans have jumped on this and framed it as a "Democrat" problem. They blame it on Democrat's "soft-on-crime" approach and have even referred to a New York District Attorney's approach as "hug-a-thug. " Many news stories outside of Fox have also purported that police reform is responsible for this rise in murder and have pointed to cities like New York and LOS Angeles.
There is a measure of truth to these stories. The US saw an alarming 30% increase in murder in 2020. While 2021 data is not yet complete, murder was on the rise again this past year. Some "blue" cities, like Chicago, Baltimore, and Philadelphia, have seen real and persistent increases in homicides. These cities—along with others like LOS Angeles, New York, and Minneapolis—are also in places with wall-to-wall media coverage and national media interest.
But there is a large piece of the homicide story that is missing and calls into question the veracity of the right-wing obsession over homicides in Democratic cities: murder rates are far higher in Trump-voting red states than Biden-voting blue states. And sometimes, murder rates are highest in cities with Republican mayors.
For example, Jacksonville, a city with a Republican mayor, had 128 more murders in 2020 than San Francisco, a city with a Democrat mayor, despite their comparable populations. In fact, the homicide rate in Speaker Nancy Pelosi's San Francisco was half that of House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy's Bakersfield, a city with a Republican mayor that overwhelmingly voted for Trump. Yet there is barely a whisper, let alone an outcry, over the stunning levels of murders in these and other places.
We collected 2019 and 2020 murder data from all 50 states. (Comprehensive 2021 data is not yet available.) We pulled the data from yearly crime reports released by state governments, specifically the Departments of Justice and Safety. For states that didn't issue state crime reports, we pulled data from reputable local news sources. To allow for comparison, we calculated the state's per capita murder rate, the number of murders per 100,000 residents, and categorized states by their presidential vote in the 2020 election, resulting in an even 25-25 split.
We found that murder rates are, on average, 40% higher in the 25 states Donald Trump won in the last presidential election compared to those that voted for Joe Biden. In addition, murder rates in many of these red states dwarf those in blue states like New York, California, and Massachusetts. And finally, many of the states with the worst murder rates—like Mississippi, Kentucky, Alabama, South Carolina, and Arkansas—are ones that few would describe as urban. Only 2 of America's top 100 cities in population are located in these high murder rate states. And not a single one of the top 10 murder states registers in the top 15 for population density.
Whether one does or does not blame Republican leaders for high murder rates, it seems that Republican officeholders do a better job of blaming Democrats for lethal crime than actually reducing lethal crime.
If you're tuned in to the media, you'd think murder is rocketing skyward in New York, California, Illinois. But those states don't even crack the top ten.
In fact, the top per capita murder rate states in 2020 were mostly those far from massive urban centers and Democratic mayors and governors. Eight of the top ten worst murder rate states voted for Trump in 2020. None of those eight has supported a Democrat for president since 1996.
The chart below shows the top 10 murder rate states in 2020. Mississippi had the highest homicide rate at 20.50 murders per 100,000 residents, followed by Louisiana at 15.79, Kentucky at 14.32, Alabama at 14.2, and Missouri at 14. The national average was 6. 5 per 100,000 residents, but the top five states had rates more than twice that high.
These red states are not generating "murder is out of control" national headlines. They seem to generate no headlines at all. The rest of the top ten were filled out by South Carolina, New Mexico, Georgia, Arkansas, and Tennessee—all states rarely talked about in breathless media reports about rampant crime in Democratic strongholds. Notably, New Mexico and Georgia were the only Biden-voting states in the top ten, and they ranked seventh and eighth, respectively.
Five of the largest Biden-voting states by population, and those often in the news when it comes to crime, had much lower murder rates. New York at 4. 11 per 100,000 residents, California at 5. 59, and New Jersey at 3. 70 were each well below the national average. Pennsylvania (7. 22) and Illinois (9. 20) were higher than the national average. But Mississippi's murder rate was nearly 400% higher than New York's, more than 250% higher than California's, and about 120% higher than Illinois's. In fact, the five states with the highest murder rates, all Trump-voting states, had rates at least 240% higher than New York's murder rate and at least 150% higher than California's, the homes to some of the largest cities featured prominently in the "crime is out of control" narrative.
Beyond the top 10, we looked at the 2020 murder rates in the 25 states that voted for Donald Trump and compared it with the murder rates in the 25 states that voted for Joe Biden. The 8. 20 murders per 100,000 residents rate in Trump states was 40% higher than the 5. 78 murders per 100,000 residents in Biden states. These Biden-voting states include the "crime-is-out-of-control" cities of LOS Angeles, New York City, Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia, Portland, Baltimore, and Minneapolis, among other large cities.
Among the 50 states, murder rates were often well above the national average in many Republican-controlled states and cities. Jacksonville with 176 homicides and a murder rate (19.776) more than three times that of New York City (5.94) has a Republican mayor. Tulsa (19.64) and Oklahoma City (11.16) have Republican mayors in a Republican state and have murder rates that dwarf that of Los Angeles (6.74). Lexington’s Republican mayor saw record homicides in 2020 and 2021, with a murder rate (10.61) nearly twice that of New York City. Bakersfield (11.91) and Fresno (14.09) each have Republican mayors and murder rates far higher than either San Francisco or Los Angeles..
Of course, some cities controlled by Democrats have alarming murder rates, like Chicago (28.49) and Houston (17.32). But we hear about these and other Democrat-run cities all the time. We aren't getting the whole picture.
Between 2019 and 2020, Murder Rates increased slightly faster in Trump-voting states than Biden-voting states. In 2020, murder rates increased nearly everywhere. But they increased more in Trump-voting states than Biden-voting states, albeit slightly. The average increase in murder rate across all Trump-voting states was 32.2%1 compared to 30.8% in Biden-voting states.
Three out of the five states with the highest murder rates in 2020—Mississippi, Missouri, and Alabama—didn't have reliable 2019 data available, so they weren't included in this analysis.
Three of the five states with the largest increase in murder rate were Trump-voting Wyoming at 91.7%, South Dakota at 69%, and Nebraska at 59.1%. These states are decidedly rural and do not conform to the chaos-in-the-city meme that has overtaken the crime debate. Biden-voting Wisconsin came in at the number three spot at 63.2% and Minnesota came in fifth at 58.1%. Out of the top ten states, six were Trump-voting states—with the additional three being Kentucky, West Virginia, and Kansas. The remaining states in the top ten were Delaware and Washington. Only one of the top ten states in murder rate increases, Delaware, was among the top twenty in population density.
Conclusion.
The current narrative around crime and murder is convenient and wrong. Whether you're watching CNN or Fox News, or getting news online or from a traditional newspaper, you would think that the increase in murder is a phenomenon found mostly in liberal cities. Many have tried attributing this increase to Democratic policies, specifically police reform. Republican lawmakers and ad makers have contributed to this narrative through clever messaging and strategies.
But the data clearly paint a different story. The increase in murders is not a liberal cities problem but a national problem. Murder rates are actually higher in Republican, Trump-voting states that haven't even flirted with ideas like defund the police. Eight of the ten most lawless, high-murder states are not only Trump-voting states, but GOP bastions for the last quarter of a century. A more accurate conclusion from the data is that Republicans do a far better job blaming others for high murder rates than actually reducing high murder rates..
Methodology.
We sought 2019 and 2020 murder data from all 50 states. Our primary source was the annual crime reports released by state governments, more specifically from their Departments of Justice or Public Safety. We chose state data because we found it's more comprehensive than FBI data which is often compiled later. For example, "the FBI estimated crime statistics for Mississippi are based on data received from 113 of 251 law enforcement agencies in the state that year. " 37 states had crime reports for the years 2019 and 2020: Alaska, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Iowa, Idaho, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, North Carolina, North Dakota, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Nevada, New York, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. For the remaining states we pulled data from published public sources: Alabama- US News, Georgia- US News, Hawaii- The Center Square, Indiana- Hartford City News Times, Louisiana- US News, Maryland- Ocean City Today, Mississippi- US News, Missouri- US News, New Mexico- US News, Ohio- Axios, Oregon- KOIN, Vermont- WCAX, West Virginia- The Center Square. In seven states, the public sources only provided murder per capita rates, so using the rates and census population data, we estimated the number of murders in that state. Data and sources are attached above.
Simpleton logic. Biden loves you. He is screwing you and you are defending him. Yes Biden loves you. He loves people that aren't smart enough to think for themselves and believe what he tells them. Yes. You and Biden both think he is creating jobs. Problem is that logic shows he isn't. But unfortunately Mist Americans are smarter than you and Biden.If President Biden loves people who can't think for themselves, he must love Republicans who, as a whole, are the most ignorant Americans imaginable.
Who believes in Q-Anon? Republicans.
Who believes that Jewish space lasers cause forest fires? Republicans.
Who believes that Chinese thermostats changed voting machine votes? Republicans.
Who believes that the Space Force is going to hand out 500,000 indictments? Republicans.
Who believes that COVID vaccines contain microchips? Republicans.
Who believes that windmills cause cancer? Republicans.
Who believes that the only "real news" comes from the "alternative facts" universe. Republicans.
There are thousands more of these examples. Republicans are just too dumb to notice because they are too busy defending Corporal Bone Spurs.

I think everyone wants oil prices to be in the $75 range where oil companies are profitable and consumers aren't paying $5 a gallon for gas. History in the oil industry has always had a boom and a bust but usually 10-15 of stability in between the booms and busts. Right now the only solution to fix USA problem is to drill and get USA to energy stability. The world is watching a weak America now dependent on oil from our enemies. USA and Canada can make North America energy independent with drilling and added pipelines at a competitive price. Biden has made a commitment to green energy environmentalists to kill the oil and gas industries and the American people are paying the price. Biden is driving millions of people into poverty. Increasing drilling by 25% and fast tracking 4 or 5 new pipelines would get USA out of this mess within a year. Not doing it is going to keep USA with high gas prices for 3 more years. That is the reality. You may not like reality and you probably want to blame someone other than Biden but facts are facts and Biden is the problem.All those brokerage clients of CaliGuy / Canada that were allegedly talked into oil and gas stocks a year ago need to think good and hard about when to take their profits.
Because that industry's demand has already enjoyed its peak, which came three years ago.
World-wide oil transport and sales were at a daily record of 26.6 billion barrels in year 2019.
That pace went down to 23 point something billion daily in year 2020 as the pandemic closed up some activity and commuting.
Now that we are getting back to pre-pandemic levels, worldwide consumption levels are now at 25.2 to 25.3 billion daily barrels (who needs more pipelines? HaHaHa).
In the United States in 2021 I think around 8% of new car sales were electric vehicles. With many many many more big company sellers in 2022 could we reach 20% this year?
Elon Musk grew Tesla's total units by what 87% in 2021? I think he said he's on pace last quarter at only a 57% higher clip this year (from last year).
I sure hope your brokerage clients have some limit orders in to sell their oil and gas stocks when the predictable tumbles happen.
Totally correct but there will be some fools that don't understand and try to distort the truth. You can't fix stupid. Just wait for your first stupid comment from an idiot.You and Canada are the two biggest fools on the boards. You repeatedly lie about the situation in the oil market and every time your lies are exposed you change your tunes and then 2 weeks later rattle off the same lies again. Now you think $75 oil is ok which will mean a pump price of between $3 - 4 when only a couple of days you were bemoaning the fact that pump prices were $2. So you admit oil prices under Trump were unsustainable and caused massive harm to the industry by causing over 600 bankruptcies and hundreds of billions of losses.
Canadian production is not going to significantly increase. A price of $75 a barrel does not warrant an investment in new Canadian oil production because their breakeven cash cost is $50 and that doesn't even pay for interest and depreciation. The Canadian Government understands that their oil industry has no future which is why they pumping money into battery factories and lithium and rare earth mining and processing.
The reality is clearly that US oil producers don't want to increase production. They are all focussing on profits and dividends. As Devon energy blurted out the have a big bank of leases to drill but they are happy with the status quo. Even though there is more than 1 mbpd of spare pipeline capacity noone is rushing to install more because everyone in the industry knows that the long term prospects for oil is for reduced demand so better to maximise profit now and don't spend money on assets that will end up with low utililisation. Basically all the smart money is doing the exact opposite to what you are advocating and all you can do is cry about Biden.
Its laughable when all you wingers talk about how good Trump was when he spent a year doing nothing about the pandemic that destroyed the economy, giving us gems like Hydroxychloroquine, injecting bleach, don't worry it will be gone soon then giving trillions of dollars to businesses to sustain themselves but who promptly fired their employees and went out buying Ferraris and yachts. Yep I'm sure that guy would be fixing the problem when he showed he was the most incompetent President ever causing crises rather than fixing them.
You are wrong again. Just Google it. More blacks, Hispanics, minorities and women were working under Trump presidency. Highest amount of people ever had jobs in USA before pandemic. And Biden hasn't gotten these people working yet. Maybe I'm Fantasyland Biden is doing a great job. But in USA Biden is a disaster. And it is getting worse each day.https://www.yahoo.com/news/one-most-basic-hotel-amenities-104344685.html.
1.8 m jobs lost from the Hotel industry that are never coming back due to Trumps handling of the pandemic. If those jobs were available now then Biden would be well ahead of Trump in people employed but they never returning and yes they were a big employer of the groups you mention above. Fortunately Biden is doing an excellent job of covering for the Trump crisis failure and achieving the lowest unemployment claims seen for 50 years. Thanks Joe, job well done.
Real problem is obvious. Problem is Biden. High gas prices? The problem is Biden. Record inflation: problem is Biden. War in Ukraine: Problem is Biden. Open borders with criminals and drugs illegally coming into USA: Problem is Biden. You don't get it. The problem is Biden. We didn't have any of these problems under Trump presidency. That is a fact.Below is the reason a new viral outbreak in a region of China was allowed to grow and spread unmonitored, unreported, not prevented and not responded to quickly and intelligently, why it spread and flourished into Trump's Pandemic, why a million Americans and millions more around the world were infected by it and died from it, why millions upon millions of Americans lost their jobs (not put on vacation) including "blacks, Hispanics, women and minorities", why international travel for business, tourism and sexual adventures was crippled perhaps forever, why global Supply Chains collapsed and why the world has experienced the resultant hyper-inflation and higher gas prices:

Trump administration ended pandemic early-warning program to detect coronaviruses.

https://www.latimes.com/science/story/2020-04-02/coronavirus-trump-pandemic-program-viruses-detection..Joe Biden and his spectacularly successful distribution and administration of the vaccines that Trump spent almost the entire critical year of 2020 denying were needed and insisting anyone bothering to invent or take a vaccine for his Pandemic was wasting their time and Biden's recovery policies had zero to do with any of the Trump policies and stewardship that caused all of it except for the natural and unavoidable temporary inflation that will always accompany a Great Dem Recovery from the usual Great Repub Crash and Recession when millions of jobs are created, Americans have money in their pockets again, are driving to jobs again, spending and buying things again while the businesses and suppliers the Repub policies and stewardship destroyed are not yet up and running fully again.
The fact that you are capable of typing out words and sending them to a website to be posted suggests your are not so stupid as to not know those blatantly obvious truths. Which in turn suggests you are whole-heartedly in favor of more historically disastrous Repub policies and results like Trump's coming to pass over and over and over again for America rather than more historically successful Dem policies and results.
Why do you hate America, the world, economic boom times, jobs creation, international travel for business, tourism and sexual adventures so much and love Great Repub Crashes and Recessions, massive jobs destruction, and crippling international travel perhaps forever so much?

You still don't get it. There is no problem delivering Canadian oil to US markets. Keeping saying the same thing that is demonstrably untrue does not win the argument. This oil isn't even going into the US market it is being exported. Canada by virtue of the type of oil it produces needs a hefty capital spend to lift production. No one wants to finance it because its the highest cost oil in the world and they have a requirement to reduce their greenhouse emissions which they will not be able to achieve. So the whole Keystone XL pipeline talk is irrelevant as there is no oil available to transport to the US above what is currently available.No, you do not get it. If you have a 5 million BPD capacity, the most you can produce is 5 million BPD. That is what you are saying is going on. Is there 6 million BPD capacity possible in Canada? Sure. Your explanation about finance is 1000% wrong just using your own numbers. The oil companies cannot get financing? Shit, everywhere I turn the banks are throwing money at people the fed has produced so much of it. So you are telling me banks would rather lend to buy inflated real estate versus an oil company that can lock in $80 per barrel futures contracts and a $50 production cost? How dumb do you have to be to believe that?
We agree that pipelines are the cheapest way to pay to transport crude but for some reason you think cancelling the cheapest way to ship crude would not affect its price. Say what?
And pipelines are like highways. If you build them, houses pop up near them. You build the a cheap way to transport crude, and it will be used. And if you have lower costs, those typically are passed on to a consumer.
If Biden is the problem why are 60% of companies providing guidance that they are focusing on profits and dividends and not on increasing production? Because more production leads to lower prices and they shoot themselves in the foot just like they did during trump when 600 companies went bankrupt.Three words: windfall profits tax.
This was happening before Covid, Saudis tried to bankrupt the fracking industry and dropped the oil price to a level that few producers could make money. While it might produce cheap gas for a couple of years it was always unsustainable and the industry isn't going back to that cycle when the can have high share prices, exercise their options and get big bonuses. Its just convenient to whine about Biden to take the heat off themselves.Eh, sorry, you failed to mention that Trump took a ton of Venezuelan and Iranian oil production off line and American producers filled the gap. For some fucked up purpose, Biden wants to reverse that. It has nothing to do with climate change. It has to do with taking money out of the pockets of American oil companies and giving it to Venezuela and Iran.

Real problem is obvious. Problem is Biden. High gas prices? The problem is Biden. Record inflation: problem is Biden. War in Ukraine: Problem is Biden. Open borders with criminals and drugs illegally coming into USA: Problem is Biden. You don't get it. The problem is Biden. We didn't have any of these problems under Trump presidency.

For some fucked up purpose, Biden wants to reverse that. It has nothing to do with climate change. It has to do with taking money out of the pockets of American oil companies and giving it to Venezuela and Iran.Firstly you have provided no evidence that Canada has the capacity to produce anymore oil than is currently being shipped. Maybe if you did I would pay some attention to what you have to say. You clearly don't have any understanding of the requirements to finance large capital projects. Just because oil is $100 barrel now doesn't mean it will be in 5 years. History says it won't be. Logic says when EVs dominate then it certainly will be a lot less. Banks are not going to invest in 25 - 30 year projects that may not have a viable market in 5 years. At least shale oil has a significant up front production profile that removes some risk and the amount of drilling can be scaled back, oil sands does not, once built it requires good market conditions to be economic over its life. But I'm not going to write an essay here for someone who clearly does not grasp economics or capital approval processes.
The fact you don't grasp the pipeline cost vs rail cost impact is a clear case of you complete lack of understanding of economics. Oil is a commodity, the price paid is related to its intrinsic value against alternative sources for that commodity. A refiner evaluates the value based on the price delivered to its gate. Canadian oil sells at a discount as it is harder to refine and has lower yields so its at an immediate disadvantage. The Keystone XL pipeline was a Canadian owned pipeline to benefit Canadian producers. Any savings in the transport of the oil gets pocketed by the pipeline owner and the producers. You really expect them to sell at a lower price to the refiners? So the pipeline has no impact on US prices only Canadian profits. It has no impact on the ability to deliver oil to the US market. Get it now!
Iran has been selling plenty of oil to the Chinese as China does not care about US sanction. Venezuela has no spare capacity to ramp up production so I really don't see what your point is.
Real problem is obvious. Problem is Biden. High gas prices? The problem is Biden. Record inflation: problem is Biden. War in Ukraine: Problem is Biden. Open borders with criminals and drugs illegally coming into USA: Problem is Biden. You don't get it. The problem is Biden. We didn't have any of these problems under Trump presidency. That is a fact.The biggest problem with this kind of thinking is that it is faulty. "Post hoc ergo propter hoc" thinking, really.
If inflation was confined to the USA, you might have a point. But inflation is worldwide and President Biden is not the cause of worldwide inflation.
If an increase in gasoline prices were confined to the USA, you might have a point. But gasoline prices are up everywhere in the world and President Biden is not the cause of high gasoline prices.
If the war in Ukraine was something that President Biden could have stopped, he would have. Ignoramuses believe that Putin didn't invade when the Orange Buffoon was president* because the Orange Buffoon was strong. False. Intelligent people know that Putin was simply waiting for Corporal Bone Spurs to get re-elected, pull out of NATO and defacto hand Ukraine to Putin. Republicans love to complain about Ukraine but no Republicans have bothered to enlighten the rest of us as to what they would have done.
See, that's the single largest Republican failing. Republicans love to complain about things but when it comes time for actual solutions, they throw up their hands and say, in effect, "Who knew that healthcare reform would be so hard".
The last part of your fallacious logic is that the southern border is open. It is not. President Biden has relaxed some restrictions but that is different from "opening the border". If the border was truly "open", there would be no migrant camps close to the border. But there are, so your logic is faulty.
Republicans have only three things that they rely on. First is faulty logic. Second is yelling "fake news" at every non-rightwingnut source. Third a penchant for complaining that Democrats continually mess things up but when Republicans get in power, they do nothing to fix the problems that they complained about in the first place.

And pipelines are like highways. If you build them, houses pop up near them. You build the a cheap way to transport crude, and it will be used. And if you have lower costs, those typically are passed on to a consumer.Exactly. Biden is trying to kill domestic oil companies and buy from Venezuela and Iran.
You and Canada are the two biggest fools on the boards. You repeatedly lie about the situation in the oil market and every time your lies are exposed you change your tunes and then 2 weeks later rattle off the same lies again. Now you think $75 oil is ok which will mean a pump price of between $3 - 4 when only a couple of days you were bemoaning the fact that pump prices were $2. So you admit oil prices under Trump were unsustainable and caused massive harm to the industry by causing over 600 bankruptcies and hundreds of billions of losses.
Canadian production is not going to significantly increase. A price of $75 a barrel does not warrant an investment in new Canadian oil production because their breakeven cash cost is $50 and that doesn't even pay for interest and depreciation. The Canadian Government understands that their oil industry has no future which is why they pumping money into battery factories and lithium and rare earth mining and processing.
The reality is clearly that US oil producers don't want to increase production. They are all focussing on profits and dividends. As Devon energy blurted out the have a big bank of leases to drill but they are happy with the status quo. Even though there is more than 1 mbpd of spare pipeline capacity noone is rushing to install more because everyone in the industry knows that the long term prospects for oil is for reduced demand so better to maximise profit now and don't spend money on assets that will end up with low utililisation. Basically all the smart money is doing the exact opposite to what you are advocating and all you can do is cry about Biden.Can you explain why 70% of the people say they were better off under Trump presidency rather than Biden presidency? Can you explain to everyone why $6 gas is better than $2 gas for the average family? Can you explain why 8% inflation is better than 0% inflation for the average family? Can you explain why open borders with illegals and drugs pouring into our country is better for average families? Can you explain higher crime in our cities is better than lower crime for average families? Can you explain why poverty is better than prosperity for the average family? Those are the differences between Trump and Biden. I need you to explain how this is better for the average family.
All those brokerage clients of CaliGuy / Canada that were allegedly talked into oil and gas stocks a year ago need to think good and hard about when to take their profits.
Because that industry's demand has already enjoyed its peak, which came three years ago.
World-wide oil transport and sales were at a daily record of 26.6 billion barrels in year 2019.
That pace went down to 23 point something billion daily in year 2020 as the pandemic closed up some activity and commuting.
Now that we are getting back to pre-pandemic levels, worldwide consumption levels are now at 25.2 to 25.3 billion daily barrels (who needs more pipelines? HaHaHa).
In the United States in 2021 I think around 8% of new car sales were electric vehicles. With many many many more big company sellers in 2022 could we reach 20% this year?.My clients are smarter than you. Most financial institutions have oil stocks at a buy right now so no smart investor is going to put a sell on their stock. Most dividends are paid in April so absolutely worst time to sell. My clients have a financial plan and it isn't anything you would understand.
And by the way. Only 3% of new cars sold in 2021. At this rate it is going to take 30 years to phase out gas cars.
Yes we need more pipelines. Yes we need more oil. Right now. We either produce it and control our pricing or we buy from our enemies and pay the price. Unfortunately we have stupidity right now with Biden and we are paying the price. Hopefully in November we can reduce some of the stupidity and make Biden a lame duck president.
For the good of all Americans.
Exactly. Biden is trying to kill domestic oil companies and buy from Venezuela and Iran.Then do us all a favor and cite a source, any source, that says that the US (at some point in time) never imported a single drop of foreign oil.
I will wait. Patiently.

If inflation and higher gasoline prices were happening solely in the USA, then you might have a point. But they aren't. Every country is suffering from inflation and high gasoline prices so Biden isn't to blame. Except in the tiny minds of Republicans.
If the southern border were really open, there wouldn't be any migrant camps in Mexico. But there are plenty so the border isn't open.
Red states have a higher crime rates than blue states. I guess supporting the Orange Buffoon didn't really mean tough crime.
Red states have higher poverty rates than blue states. I guess voting Republican means we'll all be poor.
These are the difference between President Biden and the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy.

Firstly you have provided no evidence that Canada has the capacity to produce anymore oil than is currently being shipped.Provide evidence? The oil is there. You just have to pay to go get it.
You clearly don't have any understanding of the requirements to finance large capital projects. Just because oil is $100 barrel now doesn't mean it will be in 5 years. History says it won't be.History has jack shit to do with anything. Futures are the right to buy and sell a good at a given price. Oil producers can lock in the right to sell oil 5 years from now thereby mitigating the risk of fluctuating oil prices.
Here you go spouting off that you work in the oil industry and do not understand futures? Yeah, maybe you are an engineer but you do not get shit about oil finance.
Oil is a commodity, the price paid is related to its intrinsic value against alternative sources for that commodity. A refiner evaluates the value based on the price delivered to its gate.Wrong again. Refiners do not evaluate shit. They pay the price that is dictated by oil traders in the USA and Europe.
The Keystone XL pipeline was a Canadian owned pipeline to benefit Canadian producers. Any savings in the transport of the oil gets pocketed by the pipeline owner and the producers. You really expect them to sell at a lower price to the refiners? So the pipeline has no impact on US prices only Canadian profits. It has no impact on the ability to deliver oil to the US market.Wrong again. Oil is a global commodity. The more that is produced, the more supply goes up, and the more price goes down. It does not matter where the oil goes. As long as it goes to the world market, it will have an effect on price. Again, you do not get how oil is sold.
Iran has been selling plenty of oil to the Chinese as China does not care about US sanction. Venezuela has no spare capacity to ramp up production so I really don't see what your point is.Wrong again. Look at the numbers. Iran and Venezuela have been crippled by US sanctions. The USA increased production so as to make up the amount that was taken off the market by Iran and Venezuela. Trump wanted Americans to have that money.
Now look at Biden. He has demonized American producers, talked about windfall profits tax, will not shut up about climate change, and is trying to work deals with Venezuela, Iran, and Saudi Arabia instead of supporting the American industry. All this climate change BS and we see what it was all about, hurting American oil producers. If Venezuela produces the oil, the carbon is still going to be spewed in the air.
Why the hell does Biden want oil from those countries and not Canada and the USA?

And by the way. Only 3% of new cars sold in 2021. At this rate it is going to take 30 years to phase out gas cars.You are a really poor reader.
I wrote 8% of US car sales in the United States in 2021 were electric vehicles.
Your "correction" was incorrect, since I was not commenting on worldwide vehicle sales.
The United States sold close to 18 million new vehicles in their best years, but only close to around 14 million vehicles during most recent years in the last 12 to 15 years.
Worldwide automobile production has ramped up to annually around 80 million vehicles currently.
So when Tesla delivered close to a million electric cars in year 2021, it was around 6-7% of US production, but only around 1% of worldwide car production.
The reason why worldwide EV production is around 3% is because China is growing a big expansion of electric vehicles, most of which can't meet current United States highways safety requirements.
Cut your 30 year estimate down to seven or eight years.
Oil & gas stocks will tumble well before that.

Voters are coming to realize they've been had.
By Daniel Oliver.
April 4, 2022.
Something's happening. "The game's afoot," as Sherlock Holmes would say. Why are all the lefty media outlets now suddenly covering the Hunter Biden laptop story as if it were just another news item—as if they hadn't spent 20 months telling us it was "Russian disinformation"? A story they got woke ex-intelligence gurus (with the greatest of ease) to pronounce a Russian plot to get Donald Trump reelected?
Now it's ho-hum: cloudy, with patches of rain and gusty winds, followed by sun, and the laptop shows that Hunter Biden is a pervert and a crook, and his father probably is, too; but expect warmer weather tomorrow.
Roger Kimball, writing in American Greatness, suggested the shift in coverage was the opening gambit to purge Biden and Harris, by the Praetorian Guard in the deep state. In contrast, however, I argued that scenario was far-fetched: too complicated and too time-consuming. If it were done, then 'twere well it were done quickly, I. E. , it would have to be done before the Republicans likely take back the House of Representatives. Otherwise, they would prevent the Democrats from approving even a left-leaning substitute for president and vice president.
Readers disagreed, and my email was rife with plots and subplots showing how the Democrats will dispose of Biden and Harris—as so much unrecyclable trash.
Harris has to go first because if they push Biden under the bus, she becomes president. There are two suggested methods: the buyout and the kick-out. In option one, "they" find a cushy job for her—president of a think tank or some other charity, at $700,000 a year, guaranteed for five years (so long as she behaves?—ha! And an absurd $1 million book deal.
Would she take it? She knows—everyone knows—she's reached the end of her political career. She's a loser's loser. To resign would be humiliating, of course—and far worse than Nixon's resignation: he had his supporters (and still does); he was incredibly intelligent (as anyone who knew him knows), and his "guilt" was only cooked up by a partisan mob, which never forgave him for nailing their darling, Alger Hiss. Harris, de l'autre seeôté, is widely thought to be too stupid not only to serve as vice president but even to know the meaning of de l'autre seeôté—or how to look it up. Resigning is better than the alternative.
And that alternative is, "they" release some dirt on Harris (a lateral pass to the New York Times). She's been in Democratic politics for a long time, and it is fair to take "judicial notice" that there's probably dirt aplenty just lying around to be used when necessary; in fact, a whole bag full: law school irregularities, grotesque incompetence as a prosecutor, etc. And if there isn't enough, they'll simply make it up. Harris is toast—even if it's whole grain, made from flour grown organically on an nonmechanized sustainable farm, and warmed in a solar-powered toaster.
But what about Old Joe? Again, there are two ways out: the door and the window. Dr. Jill Biden must know he's. . . Gone. (Of course, she might not know: she's not a medical doctor, remember.) Still, even though she's woke, she may not be (actually, could not be!) as stupid as her husband. Biden can resign, with dignity—whatever smidgeon of dignity he has left. And perhaps get a deal for light treatment for his crooked son Hunter.
Or "they" can invoke the 25th Amendment and force him out. How humiliating!—but only to someone who can recognize that it's humiliating.
Some details: When "they" force Harris out, they make a deal with the Democrats in Congress to install a moderate Democrat who might be successful at wooing back some Democratic voters who are scurrying away from the party like cockroaches in the kitchen when the lights go on. He (yes, it will be a man, and a white one, too—they can't take any chances) will say he has no interest in running for president in 2024. Then he becomes president when Dr. Biden takes her husband on that last Amtrak ride to Wilmington. Then the Democrats pick another conventional low-key man or woman to be vice president. Cue the national anthem (in English).
Perhaps. And a scandal? Huge.
But the real scandal (whether or not they dump Biden) is how the Democrats and the media got us into this mess. They knew, everyone knew, Biden was incompetent and stupid (this has been well-documented for decades), corrupt, and senile. That's why they kept him largely out of the public eye during the campaign. They knew! There really is no arguing about what the Democrats who engineered the Biden candidacy knew.
The Democrats' perfidy must be trumpeted about: they played with the management of the United States of America as if they were playing Monopoly. That's bad enough in peacetime. Now we're in a war, perhaps a nascent World War III. These people have no shame. They care only about their own power. They saw "Weekend at Bernie's," and said, "We can do that!" And they did. They make us pine for simple corruption, simple backroom, cigar-smoking corruption: "I'll pay you a million from my slush fund; you pay my wife a million from yours."
Yes, something's happening. There's another game afoot. The public seems to be waking up to the Democrats' perfidy. Voters are coming to realize they've been had. The year-long dark night may be ending. Deo volente.

As inflation soars, supply chain issues continue, a recession looks ever more likely, and Russia's ongoing invasion & slaughter in the Ukraine command national attention, migrants are still pouring across the southern border with Mexico in unprecedented numbers. Today Governor Greg Abbott said Texas will address the migrant influx, which he accused the Biden administration of fueling, by re-routing them to Washington, D. C, on charter buses. Ha!
"We are sending them to the United States Capitol where the Biden administration will be able to more immediately address the needs of the people that they are allowing to come across our border," Governor Abbott said. And I should add where the bullshit left wing corporate media will not be able to ignore the problem any longer.
Let's Go Brandon!
But you know, the open border is a serious fucking disaster. NO country can survive with an open border that allows Million & Millions of undocumented people to continually enter the country. It is disaster and the problem goes way beyond incompetency, dementia, limited mental capacity. This is treason! Joe Biden is not enforcing the law he was sworn into office to uphold and the Democratic Party is complicit in this illegal act. Biden's dereliction of duty while president is an impeachable offence. Not a Nancy Pelosi political monkey trial impeachment. A real impeachment! For high crimes and misdemeanors. Which means a real impeachment is a constitutional remedy for a sitting President who acts against the sovereignty of the United States. This is why in the USA Constitution it is coupled with treason and bribery, all three being acts taken as acts against the government.
Look for the impeachment of Joe Biden in 2023 after the Republicans take back the House in November. It is coming, baby.
But wait, I have not even got to Biden's 2nd impeachable offence: the taking of bribes from foreign powers (Russia, China, the Ukraine and who knows who else) while serving as Vice President. Did you do that Joe? Say it ain't so. LOL. But it is true. You are a criminal and the most corrupt President since Ulysses S. Grant.

This going to end badly if Biden and clowns around him do not get there act together.
But Biden has produced better jobs creation, economic recovery, expansion and infrastructure legislation results than all three of your previous Repub gods combined.
Thanks, Joe.
Biden Presidency Mimics 'Weekend at Bernie's'.

Something's happening. "The game's afoot," as Sherlock Holmes would say. Why are all the lefty media outlets now suddenly covering the Hunter Biden laptop story as if it were just another news itemas if they hadn't spent 20 months telling us it was "Russian disinformation"? A story they got woke ex-intelligence gurus (with the greatest of ease) to pronounce a Russian plot to get Donald Trump reelected?
Now it's ho-hum: cloudy, with patches of rain and gusty winds, followed by sun, and the laptop shows that Hunter Biden is a pervert and a crook, and his father probably is, too; but expect warmer weather tomorrow.
Roger Kimball, writing in American Greatness, suggested the shift in coverage was the opening gambit to purge Biden and Harris, by the Praetorian Guard in the deep state. In contrast, however, I argued that scenario was far-fetched: too complicated and too time-consuming. If it were done, then 'twere well it were done quickly, I. E. , it would have to be done before the Republicans likely take back the House of Representatives. Otherwise, they would prevent the Democrats from approving even a left-leaning substitute for president and vice president..

And by the way. Only 3% of new cars sold in 2021. At this rate it is going to take 30 years to phase out gas cars.BTW, I don't think internal combustion engine vehicle production will end.
There will still be a use and some demand for gas powered cars.
But use of electric vehicles as replacements for gas powered ones will stay strong. A long-standing trend as people enjoy the smaller maintenance costs.
Eventually the oil industry will consist of shrinking companies, at least for the companies that don't diversify.
Clawing at each other over a dwindling market.
Good direction you are giving your clients CaliGuy. Oil & gas investments today need exit strategies.
As inflation soars, supply chain issues continue, a recession looks ever more likely, and Russia's ongoing invasion & slaughter in the Ukraine command national attention, migrants are still pouring across the southern border with Mexico in unprecedented numbers. Today Governor Greg Abbott said Texas will address the migrant influx, which he accused the Biden administration of fueling, by re-routing them to Washington, D. C, on charter buses. Ha!
"We are sending them to the United States Capitol where the Biden administration will be able to more immediately address the needs of the people that they are allowing to come across our border," Governor Abbott said. And I should add where the bullshit left wing corporate media will not be able to ignore the problem any longer.
Let's Go Brandon!Great post but you forgot to mention that Biden approved free cell phones for all illegals today. Yes he is pretty generous with our tax dollars. I would think closing the border could save us some money also.
Closer to 90-95% were better off. This going to end badly if Biden and clowns around him do not get there act together.30% were democrats who were better off under Trump but are to stupid to admit it. That is why it is only 70%.
You are a really poor reader.
I wrote 8% of US car sales in the United States in 2021 were electric vehicles.
Your "correction" was incorrect, since I was not commenting on worldwide vehicle sales.
The United States sold close to 18 million new vehicles in their best years, but only close to around 14 million vehicles during most recent years in the last 12 to 15 years.
Worldwide automobile production has ramped up to annually around 80 million vehicles currently.
So when Tesla delivered close to a million electric cars in year 2021, it was around 6-7% of US production, but only around 1% of worldwide car production.
The reason why worldwide EV production is around 3% is because China is growing a big expansion of electric vehicles, most of which can't meet current United States highways safety requirements.
Cut your 30 year estimate down to seven or eight years.
Oil & gas stocks will tumble well before that.Cali Guy was right. Only 3% of new cars bought in USA in 2021 were electric.
You and CaliGuy suffer from the same perverted "post hoc ergo propter hoc" thinking.
If inflation and higher gasoline prices were happening solely in the USA, then you might have a point. But they aren't. Every country is suffering from inflation and high gasoline prices so Biden isn't to blame. Except in the tiny minds of Republicans.
If the southern border were really open, there wouldn't be any migrant camps in Mexico. But there are plenty so the border isn't open.
Red states have a higher crime rates than blue states. I guess supporting the Orange Buffoon didn't really mean tough crime.
Red states have higher poverty rates than blue states. I guess voting Republican means we'll all be poor.
These are the difference between President Biden and the one-term, twice-impeached, fake-POTUS former guy.Red states didn't defund their police so crime is not out of control like in Chicago, LA and Seattle amongst other liberal cities. I have homes in 2 red states and I can assure you that there are more homeless in LA than in several red states. There probably isn't another stupid American living that thinks democrats are tough on crime. Your post is laughable as a joke but disgusting.

30% were democrats who were better off under Trump but are to stupid to admit it. That is why it is only 70%.Yep, we will see what happens.
Closer to 90-95% were better off. This going to end badly if Biden and clowns around him do not get there act together.By the end of this year, Biden will already have achieved more positive economic legislation, national security and foreign policy results than any Repub ever. If he does nothing for the next two years, it won't change any of the historic legislation he has already passed and set in motion.
Incoming Repub leadership, if any, will most assuredly spend the next two years claiming credit for the amazing historic results thanks only to Joe, Nancy, Chuck, the Dems and everyone who voted for them and no one else.
As Know Nothing and Do Nothing Repubs usually do.
Well, their Doing Nothing would be a great improvement over what they typically do, which is to produce the worst across the board results in history.
Can you explain why 70% of the people say they were better off under Trump presidency rather than Biden presidency? Can you explain to everyone why $6 gas is better than $2 gas for the average family? Can you explain why 8% inflation is better than 0% inflation for the average family? Can you explain why open borders with illegals and drugs pouring into our country is better for average families? Can you explain higher crime in our cities is better than lower crime for average families? Can you explain why poverty is better than prosperity for the average family? Those are the differences between Trump and Biden. I need you to explain how this is better for the average family.Please post a link for this poll you and other wingers have been referencing.

Don't be lazy. Watch his press conferences. Fake news isn't going to report it.Evidently you can't provide me with a "fake news" source that proves (you know, with charts and graphs taken from real, informed sources) that at some point in time in the recent past the USA didn't import one drop of foreign oil.
That's what energy independence is and that's what you can't prove, even with "alternative facts" sources.
Red states didn't defund their police so crime is not out of control like in Chicago, LA and Seattle amongst other liberal cities. I have homes in 2 red states and I can assure you that there are more homeless in LA than in several red states. There probably isn't another stupid American living that thinks democrats are tough on crime. Your post is laughable as a joke but disgusting.You are wrong once again. Here is the actual report. https://www.thirdway.org/report/the-red-state-murder-problem.
Here are the highlights: (1) In 2020, per capita murder rates were 40% higher in states won by Donald Trump than those won by Joe Biden. (2) 8 of the 10 states with the highest murder rates in 2020 voted for the Republican presidential nominee in every election this century.
Of course, you will say that this is "fake news" like you always do. But that simply proves that you can't think for yourself and that you have bought in to rightwingnut propaganda.
{snip}Wrong again. Oil is a global commodity. The more that is produced, the more supply goes up, and the more price goes down. It does not matter where the oil goes. As long as it goes to the world market, it will have an effect on price. Again, you do not get how oil is sold. {snip}So, if the USA produced no oil and OPEC produced more than enough to cover the USA shortfall, would oil prices go up or down? Using your logic above, the price of oil would go down because there is more supply.
Is OPEC producing more oil now, or less? They are producing less.
Therefore, the problem with the per-barrel price of oil isn't President Biden, it is OPEC. Just like it was in the 70's.
By the end of this year, Biden will already have achieved more positive economic legislation, national security and foreign policy results than any Repub ever. If he does nothing for the next two years, it won't change any of the historic legislation he has already passed and set in motion.
Incoming Repub leadership, if any, will most assuredly spend the next two years claiming credit for the amazing historic results thanks only to Joe, Nancy, Chuck, the Dems and everyone who voted for them and no one else.
As Know Nothing and Do Nothing Repubs usually do.
Well, their Doing Nothing would be a great improvement over what they typically do, which is to produce the worst across the board results in history.Yes for democrats Biden being worst president ever will be fine for them. Unfortunately the historic results will take years to fix.
BTW, I don't think internal combustion engine vehicle production will end.
There will still be a use and some demand for gas powered cars.
But use of electric vehicles as replacements for gas powered ones will stay strong. A long-standing trend as people enjoy the smaller maintenance costs.
Eventually the oil industry will consist of shrinking companies, at least for the companies that don't diversify.

Evidently you can't provide me with a "fake news" source that proves (you know, with charts and graphs taken from real, informed sources) that at some point in time in the recent past the USA didn't import one drop of foreign oil.
That's what energy independence is and that's what you can't prove, even with "alternative facts" sources.Watch Biden press conferences and you will not need a link. His press conferences show he is weak. He is against increasing domestic energy. He is incompetent. Don't rely on the news. Real or fake. If you aren't smart enough to see the truth then you aren't.

Good direction you are giving your clients CaliGuy. Oil & gas investments today need exit strategies.Our analysts don't rely on fake news or opinions. They rely on the facts. Oil consumption world wide is increasing not decreasing. Supply is limited so oil companies are not abandoning the market yet. Regardless of how many electric cars were sold in 2021 the world is still using more oil every day. Here is a recent World Oil bulletin from our analyst:
World Oil:
In its monthly oil market report, the IEA raised its demand estimates by 200,000 be / the for both 2021 and 2022, to reflect clear signs that impact on economic activity and oil demand from the omicron variant remained "relatively subdued."
World oil demand was seen rising by 5.5 million be / the in 2021 and by 3.3 million be / the in 2022, the IEA said, surpassing its pre-pandemic levels by 200,000 be / the to 99.7 million be / the.
During the fourth quarter of 2021, the IEA said global demand "defied expectations" rising by 1. 1 million be / the to 99 million be / the, an upward revision of 345,000 be / the compared to its previous report.
"If demand continues to grow strongly or supply disappoints, the low level of stocks and shrinking spare capacity mean that oil markets could be in for another volatile year in 2022." the IEA said.
You can fabricate lies and live in fantasyland all your life but successful people follow the facts. Oil is here to stay for decades.
Red states didn't defund their police so crime is not out of control like in Chicago, LA and Seattle amongst other liberal cities. I have homes in 2 red states and I can assure you that there are more homeless in LA than in several red states. There probably isn't another stupid American living that thinks democrats are tough on crime. Your post is laughable as a joke but disgusting.Here's a quote from the ThirdWay article (https://www.thirdway.org/report/the-red-state-murder-problem): "Among the 50 states, murder rates were often well above the national average in many Republican-controlled states and cities. Jacksonville with 176 homicides and a murder rate (19.776) more than three times that of New York City (5. 94) has a Republican mayor. Tulsa (19.64) and Oklahoma City (11.16) have Republican mayors in a Republican state and have murder rates that dwarf that of LOS Angeles (6.74). Lexington's Republican mayor saw record homicides in 2020 and 2021, with a murder rate (10.61) nearly twice that of New York City. Bakersfield (11.91) and Fresno (14.09) each have Republican mayors and murder rates far higher than either San Francisco or Los Angeles.
Of course, some cities controlled by Democrats have alarming murder rates, like Chicago (28.49) and Houston (17.32). But we hear about these and other Democrat-run cities all the time. We aren't getting the whole picture."
So explain how Jacksonville, FL (with Republican mayor in a Republican state) has a 3 x higher murder rate than NYC (with a Democratic mayor -then. And a Democratic Governor). Or any other of the stats above.
You can't, of course, so you'll just fall back on rightwingnut BS like you always do.
So, if the USA produced no oil and OPEC produced more than enough to cover the USA shortfall, would oil prices go up or down? Using your logic above, the price of oil would go down because there is more supply.
Is OPEC producing more oil now, or less? They are producing less.
Therefore, the problem with the per-barrel price of oil isn't President Biden, it is OPEC. Just like it was in the 70's.Problem is Biden. Saudi and OPEC see a weak USA president killing the USA oil and gas industry and begging OPEC countries for more oil. The more Biden hurts domestic energy and the more he begs gives OPEC more power to control pricing. Logical solution is don't buy from OPEC but we don't have a logical leader. Facts are facts. Biden is 90% to blame.
Yep, it's another great economic report that accurately cites that it was only better when another Dem in the White House made it so.
Weekly jobless claims fell to 166,000 last week, the lowest level since 1968
https://www.cnbc.com/2022/04/07/us-weekly-jobless-claims.html?__source=androidappshare
Jobless claims totaled 166,000 last week, the lowest since late 1968.
The decline of 5,000 from a week ago reflected revisions in the way the Labor Department calculates the initial filings numbers.
The labor market tightened further last week, with initial jobless claims falling to their lowest level in more than 53 years, the Labor Department reported Thursday.
Initial filings for unemployment dropped to 166,000, well below the Dow Jones estimate of 200,000 and 5,000 under the previous weeks total, which was revised sharply lower. The department noted that it revised claims from 2017 to 2021 and changed the seasonal factors it is using to calculate the numbers.
Last weeks total was the lowest since November 1968.
The numbers nevertheless reflect a jobs market that is subject to a severe worker shortage. There are about 5 million more employment openings than there are available workers, a situation that has driven up wages and contributed to spiraling inflation.
Federal Reserve officials are raising interest rates to try to constrict outsized demand that comes amid ongoing struggles in supply chains.
Despite the economys various obstacles, hiring has remained brisk, with nonfarm payrolls climbing by nearly 1.7 million in the first quarter of 2022.
Continuing claims, however, rose, totaling 1.52 million, according to data that runs a week behind the headline number.
The total of those receiving benefits under all programs declined to 1.72 million. The number was 18.4 million a year ago, when the government was providing enhanced support to workers displaced by Covid. The pandemics renewed spread over the winter showed little impact on the overall jobs numbers.
See that one part in there?
"Last week's total was the lowest since November 1968."
That would be just 2 months before a crooked incoming Repub was handed a historically successful economy produced by an outgoing Dem.
Seriously. Look it up. Let us all know what you find and provide the link; Has ANY outgoing Repub handed an incoming Dem as good or better economic data point among others in the past 100 years? Even once?
I'll save you the time and effort. The answer is No.
Thanks again, Joe, Nancy, Chuck, the Dems and everyone who voted for them.
Cali Guy was right. Only 3% of new cars bought in USA in 2021 were electric.Yes the 3% only represents new cars but there is still less than 1% of electric cars worldwide being driven today after 20 years of electric car production. So in 20 years only 1% of the cars are electric but somehow in next 10 years 100% will magically appear on our roads. Fantasyland at its best. What if we had stopped producing oil 10 years ago?
Red states didn't defund their police so crime is not out of control like in Chicago, LA and Seattle amongst other liberal cities. I have homes in 2 red states and I can assure you that there are more homeless in LA than in several red states. There probably isn't another stupid American living that thinks democrats are tough on crime. Your post is laughable as a joke but disgusting.I live in San Diego. Murders and attempted murders are up 38%. We are doing much better than LA and San Francisco. We are a democrat state. No one will argue with that. Since California defunded police and got soft on prosecuting crime it has been a nightmare. Probably as bad as NYC and Chicago. I do not know of one red state that defunded their police. I googled it and couldn't find one.

After all of the hoopla, after all of the money spent on recounts, audits, etc, attempting to find election fraud in Arizona, the Arizona Republican party has finally found it.
And it is indeed as widespread as the Arizona Republican party said that it would be.
There were 3.4 million votes counted in Arizona. The interim report found 9 whole cases - 6 felons in Pima County voted from jail, and 2 women from Maricopa County and one in Cochise County returned ballots from their recently deceased mothers. For the mathematically challenged rightwingnuts who read this, that is something like 0.000026%.
Something was widespread of course. It just wasn't election fraud. Rofl.

Yes the 3% only represents new cars but there is still less than 1% of electric cars worldwide being driven today after 20 years of electric car production. So in 20 years only 1% of the cars are electric but somehow in next 10 years 100% will magically appear on our roads. Fantasyland at its best. What if we had stopped producing oil 10 years ago?Electric cars are not going to replace 100% of internal combustion engine vehicle production.
But greater than 50% will happen and it will likely happen in less than 10 years, not 30 years.
This year a large number of major automakers are introducing electric versions of platforms they already build ICE cars on.
There's an electric Mustang from Ford.
An electric Hummer from General Motors.
An all electric Porsche, and many other German makes with new electric models.
According to Google, there was around 60,000 new electric vehicles sold in the United States in February 2022, representing a little under 6% of all US auto sales. My estimate is that an even larger number of new electric bikes will also sell in the United States in February 2022, and probably a significant number of new electric motorcycles too.
When electric vehicles become dominant with over 50% of new light utility vehicles sales (mostly cars) is it not going to be led by the purchases of $135,000 electric Hummers weighting in at slightly over 9,000 pounds (9,063).
But instead it will be by new, innovative small vehicles weighing between 500 and 1,500 pounds, and ultralights weighing even less. And with many successful new electric vehicles costing less than $20,000, some even less than half that.
To move a 200 pound person around, you actually need less. Just about every electric bicycle I see is well under 100 lbs.
These light vehicles don't need big batteries, nor a network of charging stations. By my estimation, California has more than 1 billion 110 electrical outlets already available to plug into. The air keeps getting cleaner in California, which leads the United States in electric vehicle sales.

So you can't find a link to that non-existent poll that shows "70% of Americans" thinking they were better off under Trump than Biden that your fellow Republican Party cult members here keep imagining they saw either?
Duly noted.Our Leaders Aren't Just Incompetent, They Are Saboteurs.
This is an administration motivated to satisfy the agenda of its radical, anti-borders activist base. The best interests of the country and the majority of its citizens aren't even on their radar.
By Brian Lonergan.
April 6, 2022.
While big government has long been derided as slow-moving, wasteful, and inefficient, there is a growing belief among Americans that what we are seeing right now is something more sinister. Yes, our government is still as wasteful and inefficient as ever, but those qualities alone do not bring the kind of fall-of-the-Roman-Empire news and images that have become commonplace today. The only possible conclusion is that a significant number of those in high places are deliberately wounding our nation for political gain, and the evidence for it mounts daily.
One need look no further than our current immigration crisis. For all the media hysteria at the time over the immigration policies of the Trump Administration, official data shows a border that was largely under control, with apprehensions of aliens at a manageable level. Tom Homan, former acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement with over 30 years' experience, has said the Trump-era immigration policies produced the most secure border in his lifetime.
Looking at the same metrics over the last 14 months, one will find a hockey stick-shaped spike that coincided with Joe Biden arrival in the White House. Some of the data, including a 1,121 percent increase in apprehensions in the Yuma Sector alone since last year, almost sound too outrageous to be true.
Did the circumstances south of the border change dramatically during that time? No, the change was due to a 180-degree reversal of the policies that demonstrably kept the border and the interior of the United States far safer from criminal elements among those entering the country illegally.
A chief executive committed to his oath of office, specifically the part about defending the country, simply would not do the things this administration has done.
The tone was set even before January 20,2021. In Democratic primaries the year before, candidate Joe Biden openly urged foreign nationals to "surge the border" if he were elected. This was followed by a blitz of executive orders on his first day in office. Many of the Trump border policies were ended, including those opposing sanctuary policies, preventing illegal aliens from being counted in the census, and authorizing construction of the border wall.
Did any of those Biden executive orders make things better for Americans living in America? Of course not. They only helped foreign nationals and extremist anti-borders groups with an agenda to weaken the United States. You, the anonymous, hard-working, taxpaying American citizen or legal resident, get to suffer the consequences.
The noxious tentacles of these policies are so long and intricate, it would take volumes to document and untangle all of them. The outcomes include more violent crime in the United States interior, death and suffering among those making the dangerous journey through Mexico, and a seemingly endless flow of people crossing our border about whom we know virtually nothing related to their backgrounds or intentions. What leader of a nation would allow this, much less intentionally cause it?
Now, just as the devastation from the COVID pandemic appears to ebb, the intentional damage being done to our country enters a new phase. The White House is preparing to end Title 42, a public health provision which has allowed border agents to control the spread of COVID as well as the illegal entry of foreign nationals across our border.
Border agents are predicting dire results from this move, with more deaths of foreign nationals, more illicit drugs entering the country, and a complete loss of operational control of the border. Even some of Biden's allies are warning that the move could exponentially worsen the crisis at the border, not to mention the political damage of having to own a self-inflicted humanitarian crisis just months away from midterm elections.
Not surprisingly, the Biden White House dismisses all of these warnings and pushes on with its poisonous rhetoric. This is an administration motivated to satisfy the agenda of its radical, anti-borders activist base. The best interests of the country and the majority of its citizens aren't even on their radar.
Yes, this administration has plenty of incompetence. One need only look at Biden's painful public speeches or Kamala Harris' cringeworthy overseas diplomatic missions to find that. Their broader policy strategies, however, are something different. They are the actions of people willing to cause damage to the country for their own self-interest.
Words matter, and accurate words need to be used. This is not incompetence; it is sabotage.

And the facts are that Republicans are idiots.Definition of an idiot is a person that continues to support Biden disasters. Most people are smart enough to know that inflation and $9 gas in parts of California is not healthy for America. Yes over $9 a gallon! An idiot does not.
Florida alone harbors a Repub whose economic decisions as so-called potus in 2018 and 2020 led directly to the mass murder of a million Americans so far and counting and many more around the world.Remember the facts. Biden killed more Americans when he had 3 vaccines than died under Trump. Trump looks like a hero to America. Biden looks incompetent. You have to acknowledge the facts. Google it. Even fake news admits this.
I live in San Diego. Murders and attempted murders are up 38%. We are doing much better than LA and San Francisco. We are a democrat state. No one will argue with that. Since California defunded police and got soft on prosecuting crime it has been a nightmare. Probably as bad as NYC and Chicago. I do not know of one red state that defunded their police. I googled it and couldn't find one.Here's a quote from the ThirdWay article (https://www.thirdway.org/report/the-...murder-problem): "Among the 50 states, murder rates were often well above the national average in many Republican-controlled states and cities. Jacksonville with 176 homicides and a murder rate (19.776) more than three times that of New York City (5. 94) has a Republican mayor. Tulsa (19.64) and Oklahoma City (11.16) have Republican mayors in a Republican state and have murder rates that dwarf that of LOS Angeles (6. 74). Lexington's Republican mayor saw record homicides in 2020 and 2021, with a murder rate (10.61) nearly twice that of New York City. Bakersfield (11.91) and Fresno (14.09) each have Republican mayors and murder rates far higher than either San Francisco or LOS Angeles.
Of course, some cities controlled by Democrats have alarming murder rates, like Chicago (28.49) and Houston (17.32). But we hear about these and other Democrat-run cities all the time. We aren't getting the whole picture."
So explain how Jacksonville, FL (with Republican mayor in a Republican state) has a 3 x higher murder rate than NYC (with a Democratic mayor -then. And a Democratic Governor). Or Tulsa and OK City with a higher murder rate than LA. Or any other of the stats above.
You can't, of course. But you'll deflect like usual. Probably with Bbbbbbbut Chicago. Or bbbbbbbut her emails.
Our Leaders Aren't Just Incompetent, They Are Saboteurs.
This is an administration motivated to satisfy the agenda of its radical, anti-borders activist base. The best interests of the country and the majority of its citizens aren't even on their radar.

While big government has long been derided as slow-moving, wasteful, and inefficient, there is a growing belief among Americans that what we are seeing right now is something more sinister. Yes, our government is still as wasteful and inefficient as ever, but those qualities alone do not bring the kind of fall-of-the-Roman-Empire news and images that have become commonplace today. The only possible conclusion is that a significant number of those in high places are deliberately wounding our nation for political gain, and the evidence for it mounts daily.
One need look no further than our current immigration crisis. For all the media hysteria at the time over the immigration policies of the Trump Administration, official data shows a border that was largely under control, with apprehensions of aliens at a manageable level. Tom Homan, former acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement with over 30 years' experience, has said the Trump-era immigration policies produced the most secure border in his lifetime..Sean Hannity Explains It All To Us:

Remember the facts. Biden killed more Americans when he had 3 vaccines than died under Trump. Trump looks like a hero to America. Biden looks incompetent. You have to acknowledge the facts. Google it. Even fake news admits this.Everything you post lacks context. Plus, you are comparing apples-to-oranges. The Orange Buffoon was a so-called president* for about 10 months. During President Biden's (and he is President, not a fake president* like the former guy. And he did win the 2020 election, not get trounced like the former guy.) first 10 months in office, fewer people died of COVID than under Hair Furor.
President Biden has presided over a bunch of Republican idiots who won't get vaccinated wear masks or protect themselves. President Biden can't be blamed for people refusing to drink the water after being lead to it. President Biden didn't encourage people to drink bleach or to shove a lightbulb up their nether regions. President Biden didn't go on TV and lie to the American people and say that the virus would disappear like magic when the weather got warm.
What is true is that there is a higher death rate per capita in counties that voted for the Mango Mussolini than in counties that voted for President Biden. That's because Republicans don't have enough IQ points to decorate a domino. But everybody already knew that.
What all news sources everywhere admit is that Republicans are idiots. The only sources that say that Republicans are smart are the "fake newZ" sites. Oh, and the Russian sites that love Tucker "My lawyer admitted that nobody in their right mind should believe anything I say" Carlson.

Oil hasn't reached its peak yet and worldwide usage is increasing every year. It might not peak for another 10 years. Didn't you read Cali Guy report from World oil?
Here it is again:
World Oil:
In its monthly oil market report, the IEA raised its demand estimates by 200,000 b / the for both 2021 and 2022, to reflect clear signs that impact on economic activity and oil demand from the omicron variant remained "relatively subdued."
World oil demand was seen rising by 5. 5 million b / d in 2021 and by 3. 3 million be / the in 2022, the IEA said, surpassing its pre-pandemic levels by 200,000 be / the to 99.7 million b / d.
During the fourth quarter of 2021, the IEA said global demand "defied expectations" rising by 1.1 million b / d to 99 million b / d, an upward revision of 345,000 be / the compared to its previous report.
"If demand continues to grow strongly or supply disappoints, the low level of stocks and shrinking spare capacity mean that oil markets could be in for another volatile year in 2022." the IEA said.The world is not pumping, transporting, nor selling as many barrels of oil as it did in 2019.
And it never will again, because there will never be as much demand for oil & gas ever again. Thank God, it is a crappy substance that dirties the air in most uses.

If you think you have not seen it all, check this out.
https://summit.news/2022/04/08/reuters-facts-checks-biden-being-ignored-by-obama-and-democrats/
You can read the article and watch the full report but if you go to the video and want to watch Joe Biden as you never want to see him at the 3:12 mark. What do you do when your own eyes see such a pathetic sight?
Well, if you are a Democrat, you fact check it, https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-biden-clip-idUSL2N2W51U1.
The article links to another video on youtube and it is not quite as damning but it is not that much better.
Still the comments are not good. "he stumbled upon someone that was going up to try and see BO. Nobody is seeking out Joe. Why the backflips by Reuters to try and convince otherwise?
And my favorite, "This is supposed to be fact check that he wasn't ignored and lost? Swing and a miss, Reuters."
The irony is that Tucker Carlson did not show this clip just to demonstrate that Biden was lost and demented. It was to show that the Democrats have abandoned him, and there were many more clips that supported his POV. Anyone who looks at that clip and thinks Biden is truly popular among Democrats can see that it is not so.
Electric cars are not going to replace 100% of internal combustion engine vehicle production.
But greater than 50% will happen and it will likely happen in less than 10 years, not 30 years.
This year a large number of major automakers are introducing electric versions of platforms they already build ICE cars on.
There's an electric Mustang from Ford.
An electric Hummer from General Motors.
An all electric Porsche, and many other German makes with new electric models.
According to Google, there was around 60,000 new electric vehicles sold in the United States in February 2022, representing a little under 6% of all US auto sales. My estimate is that an even larger number of new electric bikes will also sell in the United States in February 2022, and probably a significant number of new electric motorcycles too..Stupidity at its finest. Small deadly vehicles weighing 500-1000 pounds that will kill millions of people. Just as was predicted electric vehicles need to be lighter and less safe to get the mileage. We have those electric vehicles now. They call them golf carts.

The real problem is that people like you believe the crap you read at these off-the-wall media sites. You think it is the truth because it reinforces the crazy notions that you already have. An old boss called it "breathing your own exhaust".
There are two articles here from Forbes and from MakeUseOf. The latter uses ratings from https://www.allsides.com/unbiased-balanced-news. The two articles are: https://www.forbes.com/sites/berlinschoolofcreativeleadership/2017/02/01/10-journalism-brands-where-you-will-find-real-facts-rather-than-alternative-facts/?sh=1dba9c06e9b5 and https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/trust-news-sites/.
Here's an excerpt from Forbes. "One key question for any publication is this: If a reporter gets facts in a story wrong, will the news outlet investigate a complaint and publish a correction? Does the publication have its own code of ethics? Or does it subscribe to and endorse the Society of Professional Journalist's code of ethics? And if a reporter or editor seriously violates ethical codes. Such as being a blatant or serial plagiarizer, fabulist or exaggerator. Will they be fired at a given news outlet? While some may criticize mainstream media outlets for a variety of sins, top outlets such as the Washington Post, the New York Times, NBC News and the New Republic have fired journalists for such ethics violations."
Interesting questions, are they not? I'd bet money that none of the sources that you or any other rightwingnut moron on this form reads can answer yes to all of these questions. The probably can't even answer yes to any of the questions. Except the Russian sources that you, yourself, often post. But if they fire a reporter it is because the reporter covered a topic the wrong was and was stood up against a wall and shot.
Forbes goes on to say: "Realizing that millions more people are scratching their heads, wondering what to read and where to spend their subscription dollars, here are my top 10 large journalistic brands where I believe you can most often find real, reported facts:
1. The New York Times.
This is the most influential newspaper in the USA In my view. Its editorial page and some of its news coverage take a left-leaning, progressive view of the world. But the NYT also hews to ethical standards of reporting and the classic elements of journalism in America. That's what helps the NYT remain, arguably, the agenda-setting news organization in America. It is a leader in business, politics and culture coverage. *.
2. The Wall Street Journal.
The largest circulation newspaper in the USA, the WSJ made its bones as a business newspaper and pioneered new types of feature writing in American journalism (for example, its quirky middle-column feature called the "Ahed" and longer form, in-depth reports called "leders" As the company was purchased by Australian media mogul Rupert Murdoch in 2007, the WSJ pivoted to cover more general news in addition to business news. The WSJ is still brand X among daily business publications in the world. Its editorial page is a bastion of American free-market conservatism, using the motto, "free markets, free people. " With former Republican speechwriters and strategists such as Karl Rove, Peggy Noonan and Bill McGurn writing columns, the WSJ editorial page is often a must-read for Republicans in Washington. And left-leaning readers should not dismiss the WSJ edit page just because they may disagree with its positions. It has won several Pulitzer Prizes for editorials and columns that feature a clear thesis, backed up by thorough fact-based reporting and bold arguments.
3. The Washington Post.
The newspaper that brought down President Richard Nixon with its reporting on the Watergate scandal in the early 1970's maintains its intellectually robust tradition under the new ownership of Amazon.com founder Jeff Bezos. The Post has, for decades, been part of the big three national papers. A peer of the NYT and WSJ. In terms of winning Pulitzer Prizes, hiring the best and brightest reporters and producing big scoops. Of the big three, the Post is arguably the most forward-thinking right now in trying new digital strategies that have boosted readership. And with Bezos' backing, the Post is on a hiring binge for talented reporters while the NYT and WSJ have been pruning their reporting staffs in recent months. Most people think the Post editorial page leans left but is often regarded as more center left than the NYT.
4. BBC.
The BBC is the global standard bearer for excellence in broadcast radio and TV journalism. If only USA Cable news outlets could follow BBC's recipe. And while PBS produces some great entertainment, documentary and news programs, its news programs have often seemed to lack the creative energy of the BBC. While NPR produces some fantastic journalism, a bulk of its news coverage seem to come from re-reporting news from the New York Times and the Associated Press. And the American public perceives NPR to be more left-leaning than the BBC.
5. The Economist.
Another British export, the Economist magazine is staffed with excellent economists and journalists who produce a tightly-edited, factually rigorous account of what's happening in the world each week. One oddity is that the Economist doesn't publish bylines of their writers so you never know who exactly wrote a given piece.
6. The New Yorker.
This American treasure publishes sophisticated narrative non-fiction pieces from top writers and reporters each week in a print magazine and, increasingly, on other platforms. The New Yorker is smartly expanding its audience on the web, offering to the masses content that used to be open only to its print subscribers. The magazine itself runs a piece of fiction each week (identifies it as such). The long-form non-fiction reports on politics, culture, business and other topics often take months to report, write and fact check. The result is deep reporting and analysis each week that is hard to find elsewhere. And the narrative structures and techniques the writers use make for enjoyable reading. Similar to the Times, the New Yorker presents a progressive view of the world. Conservative readers should recognize that but not let it detract from them enjoying some of the best reporting and writing happening in the world.
7. Wire Services: The Associated Press, Reuters, Bloomberg News.
You can't exactly "subscribe" to these wire services. But you can trust reports from these organizations to be factual. They provide a backbone of news and information flows about politics and the economy. And their member organizations that surface their reports benefit from this reporting. You can follow these organizations on social media and can also follow certain reporters for these organizations who report on topics of interest to you. These wire services also do have web sites and mobile apps you can use to stay abreast the news.
8. Foreign Affairs.
This bi-monthly magazine is published by the Council on Foreign Relations. It's a serious magazine for people who want intelligence on global affairs. The magazine and its many digital platforms benefits from submissions, dialogue, differing views and analysis from the many top minds on international relations.
9. The Atlantic.
This is another national treasure, a monthly magazine that presents a view of the nation and world from Washington the. See. It is informed by many top journalists who write long-form features and also write some analysis. The Atlantic web site sometimes hews to clickable headlines. But the magazine and its parent company also subscribe to American journalism principles of fact-based reporting.
10. Politico.
Founded by reporters who left the Washington Post in 2006, Politico has built itself into a crucial player in politics reporting in the USA (and with expansions to Europe). It does publish some products in print, but Politico is easily accessible on the Internet and mobile devices. Keep an eye on Axios, a news startup launched this year by two founders of Politico.
* Disclosures: Earlier in my career, I interned at the Associated Press and the Washington Post. I worked as a staff writer at the Wall Street Journal between 2001-2011. I have also published free-lance articles in the Post, the New York Times and the New Yorker (website) as well as some of the publications listed in the runner up lists.
Runners Up:
- National Public Radio.
- TIME magazine.
-The Christian Science Monitor.
- The LOS Angeles Times (and many other regional, metropolitan daily newspapers).
- USA Today.
- CNN.
- NBC News.
- CBS News.
- ABC News.
Business News Sources:

- Bloomberg BusinessWeek magazine.
- Fortune magazine.
- The Financial Times newspaper.
Sources of reporting and opinion from the right of the political spectrum:
- National Review.
- The Weekly Standard.
Sources of reporting and opinion from the left of the political spectrum:
- The New Republic.
- The Nation".
What is interesting about this list is that you, Elvis, Canada, Axe Hole and the rest of the lunatic fringe will call all of these sources "fake news". Just watch the responses that they post in response to this post.
See, that's where the problem lies. When 75% of the population says that the sources above are, by and large, fair sources and 25% of the population says "they're all fake news", who is right? It reminds me of the very old WWI song called "They Were All Out of Step But Jim". The song depicts a mother and father of a soldier gloating to their friends after seeing their son marching. They declare their joy in the chorus, oblivious to the humor of the song's title:
"Did you see my little Jimmy marching with the soldiers up the avenue?
There was Jimmy just as stiff as starch like his Daddy on the seventeenth of March.
Did you notice all the lovely ladies casting their eyes on him?
Away he went to live in a tent over in France with his regiment.
Were you there, and tell me, did you notice?
They were all out of step but Jim."
In case you don't know, the rightwingnuts are the Mother and Father in the song.Empire of Lies.

Remember the facts. Biden killed more Americans when he had 3 vaccines than died under Trump. Trump looks like a hero to America. Biden looks incompetent. You have to acknowledge the facts. Google it. Even fake news admits this.Did Biden defund and remove all of our Pandemic Prevention and Response teams from those Chinese labs and locations in 2018 against all expert dire warnings not to do something so stupid and dangerous and thereby leave the world bare ass naked against preventing and responding quickly and intelligently to the emergence, development and spread of Trump's Pandemic in all its variations now and into the future?
Then did Biden spend almost the entirety of the critical year of 2020 lying in perfect sync with Xi about the known deadly and infectious nature of his Virus by mocking the proven mitigation measures, repeatedly telling everyone on Earth that it was under control, disappearing already, would soon be down to near zero, was a Democrat Party Hoax, will go away without a vaccine so nobody should bother inventing one or taking one?
Now, more than once already I have posted the links for Trump having done exactly those things as the so-called potus.
If you have or can find any links showing that Biden did any of those things that led directly to the mass murder of a million Americans so far and counting, the massive destruction of millions upon millions of jobs, businesses and Supply Chains in America and around the world and all of the economic devastation and hyper inflation that followed either as the POTUS or as a private citizen before he won the Presidency in a landslide, please post those links here and now.
Yep. Control, Operational Control and not votes. That's what it is all about for Trumpsters and Repubs.
The Trump-Repub style of "democracy" was and still is the envy of and inspiration to authoritarian dictatorships around the world. It clearly has been the inspiration for Putin to invade any budding democracy he wants and take "Control, Operational Control" of it knowing very, very well every Republican Party or non Democratic Party voter and supporter in America will give him their full permission, encouragement and support to do so.
'We control them all': Donald Trump Jr. texted Meadows ideas for overturning 2020 election before it was called.
https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2022/04/08/politics/donald-trump-jr-meadows-text/index.html
Washington(CNN)Two days after the 2020 presidential election, as votes were still being tallied, Donald Trump's eldest son texted then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows that "we have operational control" to ensure his father would get a second term, with Republican majorities in the US Senate and swing state legislatures, CNN has learned.
In the text, which has not been previously reported, Donald Trump Jr. lays out ideas for keeping his father in power by subverting the Electoral College process, according to the message reviewed by CNN. The text is among records obtained by the House select committee investigating January 6, 2021.
"It's very simple," Trump Jr. texted to Meadows on November 5, adding later in the same missive: "We have multiple paths. We control them all."Quick! Back to the desperate search through Hunter Biden's laptop to find the rest of that video of him getting a footjob from an Asian chick!

How the 2020 Election Was Rigged.
Next time someone caricatures evidence of voting irregularities as a conspiracy theory, throw the book at them—Mollie Hemingway's book.
By Bruce Oliver Newsome.
October 31,2021.
We are a year overdue for the true story of the 2020 elections. Mollie Hemingway has at last delivered it to us in one tidy volume.
It's a complex story, which makes for a weighty book. The research is thorough, the writing is evidentiary, the style is clinical—like investigative journalism and social science used to be. The endnotes alone run nearly 100 pages.
Reading Rigged, one isn't jarred by hyperbole, conjecture, or spin. Hemingway is unequivocal on progressive malice, yet she can be scathing of Republicans, too. She is particularly critical of Rudy Giuliani's attempts to publicize fraud nationally, thereby undermining prior case-by-case efforts to get particular state courts to recognize particular violations of particular state laws.
She also calls out Republican officials who preferred to help the opposition rather than reveal their own state's dysfunctions. Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger's office, for instance, secretly recorded a telephone appeal from Trump to expose fraud in Fulton County, then misrepresented Trump to the press as asking for the statewide result to be changed.
Overall, the story reads like a tragedy. One alternates between anger and consternation that bleeding obvious facts were not reported by the mainstream media at the time.
Some evidence of election irregularities broke through mainstream censorship: the strange spikes in votes counted for Biden overnight in counties with unusually strong Democratic Party governance and histories of criminal mishandling of votes (Milwaukee, Philadelphia, Fulton County, for example).
Over subsequent days, a news consumer with time and effort could piece together strange disputes. Official election observers were denied access, or kept so far away they could not see any ballots. They sought emergency court orders, but some courts set hearing dates weeks in the future or simply denied jurisdiction. Even if observers did obtain a court order, election officials claimed not to understand it (as in Philadelphia).
In Georgia, observers were told that counting was being suspended overnight, but a surveillance camera recorded video of four persons pulling boxes of ballots from beneath a cloaked table for unobserved digital entry. Still, Georgia's officers continued to claim that voting had been suspended overnight. Surely this was a story worthy of investigative reporting? The mainstream media preferred to report all the disputes as conspiracy theories.
Witnesses came forward testifying to ballot harvesting, ballot stuffing, counts for the Democratic Party without ballots, ballots for the Republican Party that disappeared without counting. Nevertheless, the Republican Party could not get most of the media to show up to hear these witnesses, or the courts to admit them.
And so 2020 petered out, with the election still disputed but barely investigated. Most of the evidence, most of the admissions, most of the backtracking, waited until after Biden's victory was confirmed by Congress in January.
A History of Rigging.
As Hemingway shows in the book's opening pages, the theft of an election is a long time in the making, and incorporates many efforts other than ballot rigging. This is the strength of the book: she starts the narrative by detailing the flaws in early American elections that would be reinstituted in 2020.
In 1844, voting was spread over five weeks, which meant that the results of early voting surely influenced later voters. Additionally, early voters missed out on later campaigning. In 1848, all voting, by law, was scheduled to take place on the same day. And yet, 130 years later, progressive states turned legitimate absentee voting into no-cause early voting.
In 2020, progressives championed early voting and mail-in voting, knowing that Republicans preferred to vote in person on the day. To strengthen the case, progressives campaigned for all Americans to be locked down against COVID-19, contrary to the pan-Asian norm of locking down local hotspots. A general lockdown had the additional advantage of ruining the national economy, which had been booming, to Trump's credit. Further, lockdown prevented Trump from campaigning at his best (in person), and excused the stumbling, bumbling Biden from leaving his home.
Perversely, progressives both encouraged mob rule in response to the killing of George Floyd in May, and used the violence as yet another justification for mail-in voting—and for voting against Trump. As Biden tweeted on August 27, "Remember: every example of violence Donald Trump decries has happened on his watch. Under his leadership. During his presidency."
Widespread Collusion.
The progressives' champions were funded by tech oligarchs and promoted by the mainstream media. Even Republican state officials colluded. For instance, Georgia Governor Brian Kemp watered down signature-matching requirements in 2019 to appease Stacey Abrams' claims of "voter suppression" when she lost to him in 2018. Of course, appeasement just emboldens the bully. Later in 2019, the Democratic Party's chief elections litigator, Marc Elias, sued Raffensperger, who consented to allow for disputed absentee ballots to be "cured" rather than summarily discounted, and to allow Democrats to train and advise officials on signature matching.
Georgia's primary election in June 2020 was conducted by the counties. They made a mess of it—especially the strongly Democratic counties. The worst offender, Fulton County, was forced to agree to federal monitoring and various training and performance standards. Yet state reforms were perversely to their advantage. Raffensperger inexplicably directed most of the reform funds to those same Democratic counties, which promoted yet more mail-in voting.
Millions of dollars were sourced from Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, acting mainly through the Center for Election Innovation and Research (CEIR) and Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL). Both centers were founded and run by former affiliates of the Democratic Party. Some of these affiliates were given roles in the implementation of official reforms. In the city of Green Bay, Wisconsin, they were actually given keys to the central counting facility and ballot machines.
Did election integrity improve given this outsourcing? No. In Green Bay, poll workers "cured" ballots with the same color pens voters had used. Subsequently, Wisconsin's legislature voted to ban private funding of election operations, only to be vetoed by Democratic Governor Tony Evers.
CEIR reported that it contacted all 50 states, of which 23 were awarded funds. What CEIR did not explicitly report was that it gave 7. 6 times more funds to Democratic states than to states that had voted for Trump in 2016. CEIR gave more than half of its money to four battleground states: Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Arizona.
Georgia received more than $31 million, or nine percent, of all "Zuck Bucks. " Yet not all of Georgia's counties received funding. Biden-voting counties received $7. 13 per registered voter, on average, compared to $1. 91 in Trump-voting counties. Counties that did not receive CEIR funding did not show significant voting shifts from 2016 to 2020, but the funded counties showed an average shift of 2. 3 percent in favor of Democrats.
The disputed runoff for Georgia's two USA Senators accounted for another $14.5 million from Zuckerberg's organizations, with similar bias in favor of Democratic counties.
The other battleground states showed the same funding bias. In the end, Zuckerberg had channeled more than $400 million into nominally non-partisan election reforms.
Changing the Rules.
For the 2020 general election, 39 states modified their election laws or procedures.
Early voting started up to two months before the statutory election day, and one month before the first televised debate between the presidential candidates. Receipts were permitted days after election day, to accommodate the anticipated postal delays. More than 100 million of the 159 million ballots counted in 2020 were posted prior to election day. In 2016, the rate had been 33 million posted out of 140 million counted. Joe Biden won the Electoral College by 43,000 more votes than Trump across just three states.
Early voters are generally less informed voters. In 2020, in-person Republican voters were suppressed by general reporting that early voting favored Biden. They were further suppressed by inaccurate polling suggesting Biden was on course for a landslide. Finally, they were suppressed by early results out of Arizona, which started counting mail-in ballots two weeks before election day. Biden won Arizona by a margin of just 0. 3 percent, and Georgia by the same margin.
Early voting makes fraud easier, of which the two easiest forms are double voting and manipulating another person's ballot. Secrecy of voting is more difficult in a household than a voting booth. Family members, community organizers, and clerics have been known to collect ballots for completion.
In some states, strangers are allowed to harvest ballots, meaning that they may collect ballots merely on the promise to deliver them correctly. But the volunteer could filter out votes for disliked candidates, or influence how the ballot is completed, particularly in the name of the elderly, homeless, infirm, or anyone confined on the grounds of COVID.
Secretly filmed footage from Minneapolis showed harvesters for Representative Ilhan Omar exchanging cash for ballots. The all-mail-in election for Paterson City Council, New Jersey in May 2020 was invalidated by court order, after 19 percent of ballots were disqualified (mostly for unmatched signatures, the rest for being packaged together). The City Council's incumbent vice president and three other men were charged with voter fraud.
Voters are alerted to the opportunities for double voting when they receive ballots at more than one address. Eleven percent of Americans move every year. States are incentivized to register more than to purge voters. In 2019, Judicial Watch forced LOS Angeles County, by civil legal action, to purge its voter rolls of at least 1. 5 million voters above the number of voting-age resident citizens. In the same year, Judicial Watch established that eight states and DC maintained more registered voters than eligible voters.
Mail-in ballots make double voting easier still, because the voter's identity is usually proven by nothing more than a signature. In New Jersey, which compares the ballot signature with the signature obtained during voter registration, 9. 6 percent of mail-in ballots were disqualified, on average, across 31 local elections in May 2020.
In November 2020, thousands of Georgians voted within a county other than the county in which they lived—mostly by absentee voting.
In some jurisdictions, the only signatures to compare are the signature on the ballot, and the signature on the application for a ballot, which itself might have been obtained by somebody other than the legitimate voter. In any case, even in states that mandate a comparison, election workers seem to have skipped the burden. Some parts of Pennsylvania counted ballots without either the signature or the date—even though both are required by law. Only 0. 4 percent of absentee ballots were rejected by Georgia in November 2020, compared to 6. 4 percent in 2016. Some Republicans tested the system by using different signatures at each stage, without getting caught, as they proved later by publishing photographs.
All of this adds up to a targeted campaign to undermine election integrity in the 2020 elections. Across several states, with the help of numerous friendly institutions, the Democratic Party was able to change the way America votes, and manipulate how those votes were counted. The vast coordination to defeat Trump by any means necessary on display in Rigged exposes the rank dishonesty of leftist objections to the Right's efforts to ensure election integrity. Next time someone caricatures evidence of voting irregularities as a conspiracy theory, throw the book at them—Mollie Hemingway's book.

Stupidity at its finest. Small deadly vehicles weighing 500-1000 pounds that will kill millions of people. Just as was predicted electric vehicles need to be lighter and less safe to get the mileage. We have those electric vehicles now. They call them golf carts.Stupidity is thinking that you need a 4,000 pound vehicle for you to safely drive yourself and a date out for coffee.
Why do you type so much? Just say whatever good that happened in America is due to Biden and whatever bad is due to Trump. You would save so much time.
Every post you type is literally the same fucking thing. Inflation under Biden? That is due to Trump's pandemic. Unemployment better under Biden? That is due to Biden.
I just wonder how far you take this. If someone smiles at you, is that due to Biden? When somebody cuts you off on the road, do you say, "That damned Trump?
I know you may think I am being absurd. I am not. Are you really that crazy?But you are. Everything you post is "post hoc ergo propter hoc" reasoning.
There is worldwide inflation. Is President Biden responsible for that, too? Because blaming President Biden for US inflation when there is worldwide inflation at the same time is ludicrous. Except, of course, when your logic consists solely of "post hoc ergo propter hoc" reasoning.
The same holds true for gasoline prices.
The only people who don't see that are the ones that are crazy.

October 31,2021..Trump is an astonishingly stupid man with an abysmal business record and the worst across-the-board results of any POTUS in history.
The most shocking thing about the 2020 election was that there were enough Repubs who were even more astonishingly stupid than Trump to actually put him up for re-election and vote for him at all.
Yes, we all knew Repubs were stupid. But it was even shocking to me that they were that stupid.
The 2020 election was not rigged except by the built-in Electoral College rigging that allows states with more outhouses than office buildings to have a ridiculously outsized say in putting Repub numbskulls in the White House.
You should be ashamed to admit you are so over-the-top in love with the worst so-called potus of all time, Trump, that you fantasize about how the po' widdow America-hating con man was cheated out of 4 more years of producing the crappiest crap results of all your beloved crap Repub so-called presidents.
The world is not pumping, transporting, nor selling as many barrels of oil as it did in 2019.
And it never will again, because there will never be as much demand for oil & gas ever again. Thank God, it is a crappy substance that dirties the air in most uses.The world will pump more oil because demand is going up every day. The USA may not pump more oil than 2019 under Biden presidency because Biden is killing domestic production and begging other countries to produce oil. And they will and keep prices high as per World Oil and all experts.
World Oil:
In its monthly oil market report, the IEA raised its demand estimates by 200,000 be / the for both 2021 and 2022, to reflect clear signs that impact on economic activity and oil demand from the omicron variant remained "relatively subdued."
World oil demand was seen rising by 5.5 million be / the in 2021 and by 3. 3 million be / the in 2022, the IEA said, surpassing its pre-pandemic levels by 200,000 be / the to 99.7 million be / the.
During the fourth quarter of 2021, the IEA said global demand "defied expectations" rising by 1.1 million be / the to 99 million be / the, an upward revision of 345,000 be / the compared to its previous report.
"If demand continues to grow strongly or supply disappoints, the low level of stocks and shrinking spare capacity mean that oil markets could be in for another volatile year in 2022. " the IEA said.
Everything you post lacks context. Plus, you are comparing apples-to-oranges. The Orange Buffoon was a so-called president* for about 10 months. During President Biden's (and he is President, not a fake president* like the former guy. And he did win the 2020 election, not get trounced like the former guy.) first 10 months in office, fewer people died of COVID than under Hair Furor.
President Biden has presided over a bunch of Republican idiots who won't get vaccinated wear masks or protect themselves. President Biden can't be blamed for people refusing to drink the water after being lead to it. President Biden didn't encourage people to drink bleach or to shove a lightbulb up their nether regions. President Biden didn't go on TV and lie to the American people and say that the virus would disappear like magic when the weather got warm.
What is true is that there is a higher death rate per capita in counties that voted for the Mango Mussolini than in counties that voted for President Biden. That's because Republicans don't have enough IQ points to decorate a domino. But everybody already knew that..It is no surprise that you have a stupid lawyer. Stupidity attracts stupidity.

That is the luck of the draw. If you actually hired a competent lawyer he wouldn't be telling you that stupid stuff.

Essentially, the war in Ukraine is about resetting global arrangements. Sure, the war is about the Russian invasion, and it has caused untold suffering, but what we see is only the proverbial tip of the iceberg.
Beneath the surface is a deadly confrontation between two competing world visions: Western capitalist globalism vs. Eastern nationalist socialism. Although Ukraine is the battleground, the stakes are global.
The Western vision started at the end of WWII and continued thereafter when the winning powers set up the United Nations, World Bank, International Monetary Fund, World Trade Organization, and other regional blocs.
Later, Europe began to unite, and NATO was set up to defend the West. The intention of the founders was honorable: to safeguard and promote freedom and democracy. However, as the French philosopher Blaise Pascal once said, "the road to hell is paved with good intentions. ".
In time it became known as the New World Order. From the start, it favored the rich countries and the strong corporations. With the passage of time, nation states and governments began to lose their prerogatives and international companies began to control the world's economy. As long as America defended the West against brutal and godless communism, the system worked.
But once the communist bloc disintegrated, the rush toward globalization became a savage race. While rich people and corporations became richer, increasingly more people and some entire countries began to struggle causing social confusion and polarization.
The USA Media, for example, often refers to the "1%" of the population that owns most of everything and controls society. The American political system still works, but average people struggle under financial debt.
On a global level, the situation is a lot worse. In his book "Superclass: The Global Power Elite and the World They Are Making" (Ferrar, Straus and Giraux, New York, 2008), David Rothkopf describes a world controlled by several thousand greedy billionaires who have everything and, yet, they want even more.
These globalists backed by the American government and apologists of globalization have their own view of earthly paradise. They claim, "In the future, people will own nothing, and everybody will be happy!
Really? Who will be in charge? What does the average American stand to gain?
During Soviet times, Moscow was supposed to establish communism as a "worker's paradise. " Did we reverse roles and, instead of communism, we now push for globalization?
Regarding the war in Ukraine, yes, we should assist the suffering Ukrainian people. For most Americans, the appeal is humanitarian. For the global elite, the end game means huge resources and more profits.
And if Ukraine is added to the Western globalist portfolio, maybe Russia will be next.
The Russian Federation under Putin does not like such a perspective, while the Russian society is thoroughly split. The young, educated generation is attracted by the lure of the West. The oligarchs are divided. They would accept the new order if the West would let them keep the loot.
The Russian majority is caught by surprise. Many Russians have returned to the old Christian religion and values, but they do not like Putin's authoritarian rule.
The new Russia, and especially the Orthodox Church, also rejects the values, mentality, and behavior of the West. They deplore its chaotic liberties, licentious behavior, lack of morality, and anti-Christian trends. The Western and Eastern visions are now colliding in Ukraine, but that might be just a waystation toward a global reset.
Behind Russia is China, a nationalist-socialist country with its own plan and vision of the world: another vision; another future clash.

Stupidity is thinking that you need a 4,000 pound vehicle for you to safely drive yourself and a date out for coffee.No you are wrong again. Stupidity is thinking you can drive a 500 lb car on the LA freeway or in city traffic in LA. I will stick to my two safe 4000 lb vehicles for the roads and highways and I will drive my electric 500 lb golf cart in my neighborhood and golf courses.
Look at the facts. Oil consumption in the world is increasing still to this day. Don't be stupid enough to fall for the fake news.Agreed. Look at the facts. If oil usage was really going down there would be a surplus and it wouldn't be $100 a barrel. If oil usage was going down Biden wouldn't be begging other countries to produce more oil. There is no one stupid enough to believe oil usage will go down in 2022.
If you think you have not seen it all, check this out.
https://summit.news/2022/04/08/reuters-facts-checks-biden-being-ignored-by-obama-and-democrats/
You can read the article and watch the full report but if you go to the video and want to watch Joe Biden as you never want to see him at the 3:12 mark. What do you do when your own eyes see such a pathetic sight?
Well, if you are a Democrat, you fact check it, https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-biden-clip-idUSL2N2W51U1.
The article links to another video on youtube and it is not quite as damning but it is not that much better.
Still the comments are not good. "he stumbled upon someone that was going up to try and see BO. Nobody is seeking out Joe. Why the backflips by Reuters to try and convince otherwise?
And my favorite, "This is supposed to be fact check that he wasn't ignored and lost? Swing and a miss, Reuters."
The irony is that Tucker Carlson did not show this clip just to demonstrate that Biden was lost and demented. It was to show that the Democrats have abandoned him, and there were many more clips that supported his POV. Anyone who looks at that clip and thinks Biden is truly popular among Democrats can see that it is not so.I read both of your links.
In neither of them did I find the quote you used: "This is supposed to be fact check that he wasn't ignored and lost? Swing and a miss, Reuters."
So what you did was find a quote from some rightwingnut source that you mysteriously didn't post and then try to scam us into thinking that it came from Reuters or some other real news organization.
This is a typical Republican MO. But it backfired because not everybody is as dumb as you are.

Agreed. Look at the facts. If oil usage was really going down there would be a surplus and...That is exactly what happened after year 2019, the last year of peak oil demand.

Where would all that L. A. Traffic be going to and from? Surely not their homes and jobs. Nobody in California can afford a home or to buy Biden-inflated gas prices anyway, right? Especially since Biden's economy hasn't created one job, much less a better, higher paying job. Or so I hear.

Here is a riddle: what do Democrats say when they are proven wrong? No one knows. No Democrat ever admits they are wrong about anything.
I can understand that you can't afford to hire a good lawyer and you got stuck with a court appointed lawyer so you got a dumb one. That is the luck of the draw. If you actually hired a competent lawyer he wouldn't be telling you that stupid stuff. And it really is unfair that you are admitting your lawyer is stupid when he can't defend himself.Intelligent people know that Carlson's lawyer said (during a trial of a suit brought against Carlson for libel) that what Carlson says is BS and that anybody who believes what he says is an idiot. Intelligent people know that rightwingnut media did not report that because they want their readers / listeners to believe that whatever Carlson says is "the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth."
Intelligent people know all of this so it is no surprise to anybody that you don't.
Look at the facts. Oil consumption in the world is increasing still to this day. Don't be stupid enough to fall for the fake news.As usual, you offer opinions and opinions only.
If you are so sure of your so-called "facts", why not provide a link to back up your claims? You can't, of course, which is why nobody with an ounce of common sense believes any of the malarky that you post.
The facts are that the original poster said that the world is pumping less oil now than in 2019. The facts are on his side. Take a look at https://ycharts.com/indicators/world_crude_oil_production.
Click on the 5 year chart. Look at the graph. Anybody with enough IQ points it decorate a domino will see that the November '21 production (the last date for which there is data) is about 5% less than the highest 2019 production.
You, of course, will call this "fake news" because it points out that you told another falsehood. Again. Are you trying to break the Orange Buffoon's record? Or Tucker "My lawyer said that nobody in their right mind should believe anything I say" Carlson's. Enquiring minds want to know!

But you are. Everything you post is "post hoc ergo propter hoc" reasoning.
There is worldwide inflation. Is President Biden responsible for that, too? Because blaming President Biden for US inflation when there is worldwide inflation at the same time is ludicrous. Except, of course, when your logic consists solely of "post hoc ergo propter hoc" reasoning.
The same holds true for gasoline prices.
The only people who don't see that are the ones that are crazy.Biden owns the oil issue, and we have documented why.
The fed increased the money supply because of the virus, so the rest of the inflation is not on Biden, however since the pandemic has ended and people can go back to work, he does not get credit for the so called job growth.
Eih keeps talking about jobs and Democrats. Outside of the feds hiring people to work for them, people in the private sector create jobs not Biden nor any other president. The former Soviet Union had full employment. Maybe that is the business model for you Dems.
As to why you are crazy, you are proud of Russiagate and Ukriainegate and the Hunter Biden laptop coverup. You are not pro-Democracy and anti-voter. You have no respect for understanding why someone votes Republican. Republicans are all stupid racists which means you want one party rule.
And blaming Trump for Coronavirus and not China and Fauci? That is where you guys are full on mental. We have not blamed Biden for Covid deaths even when the numbers were higher with him than under Trump. On top of that, you Dems tried to make the pandemic a partisan issue. Republicans are not getting vaccinated enough! Yeesh.
You see what I did there? I gave credit and blame based on facts.
No, you are crazy. Everything good is Biden. Everything bad is Trump. You lack any capacity to be objective.

New Hampshire Republican Gov. Chris Sununu stole the show Saturday night at the annual Gridiron Club dinner by saying out loud what most Republicans in Washington *privately* whisper about Donald Trump.
"You know, he's probably going to be the next president," Sununu said of Trump, musing about his "experience," "passion," "sense of integrity" and the "rationale" he brought to his tweets. As the room quieted to see where he was going with this, he paused, then yelled: "Nah, I'm just kidding! He's fucking crazy!" The ballroom roared with laughter. "Are you kidding? Come on. You guys are buying that? I love it. He just stresses me out so much! . I'm going to deny I ever said it. "
It didn't stop there: "The press often will ask me if I think Donald Trump is crazy. And I'll say it this way: I don't think he's so crazy that you could put him in a mental institution. But I think if he were in one, he ain't getting out!How apropos 68 and counting ROTFLMMFAO.

Way too many NPC's out there with a dogma that states "Biden can do no wrong. Trump can do no good. "(the opposite exists as well, but by in large, it's often the lefties with this mindset).

Very well said! Way too many NPC's out there with a dogma that states "Biden can do no wrong. Trump can do no good. "(the opposite exists as well, but by in large, it's often the lefties with this mindset). There's plenty of this to go around from both sides, but it is the rightwingnuts that win the day when it comes to sticking their heads in the sand and clinging to their fantasies in spite of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. The "Stop the Steal" horse manure and insurrection at the Capital are perfect examples. Just read the comments section under the articles on the Fox News website. CNN will actually attack Biden when he has it coming, have many times since he has been in office. When was the last time any rightwingnut media called out Trump? That's in spite of over 30,000 documented lies and misleading statements while president, many of them plainly absurd, along wth his recent pandering to his mentor and America's enemy Putin, calling him "a genius" all the way up to the invasion.
You know their opinion on any given issue before they even open their mouths.You're talking about the Trumptards, right? I thought so. Wink.

Do you think when I or anyone else who hires someone, we looks and say, "Oh wait, who is president?" Again, you just show how clueless you are with regards to life.
and throwing everyone else off the field while the Dem "refs" have not.Again, you are just clueless. If the refs rig the game, no one wants to play, no one wants to watch the game, and everyone loses. We would go play in an area (country or industry) where there are good refs.
The USA oil and gas industry started hiring again because there was demand and money in oil and gas AND a new drilling method made it profitable to do so. It did not matter who was president. There was money to be made.
But we did get a new ref in. Your guy Biden comes in and changes the rules and there are much fewer people willing to play the game. Now that is a bad ref. He did not ruin the game, but he made it helluva lot less interesting and sure as hell made fewer people want to participate.
And there are things beyond a ref's control. If everyone is sick, there can be no game, so it is cheap shot to blame the ref if that is the case, but you have been taking cheap shots at Trump on the virus for the last 2 years. Yes, there were fewer jobs during the pandemic, and somehow that is on Trump. Yeah, that is Dem logic at work.
And since we are on fairness, you are a progressive Democrat. That means whatever the Democratic party does is right.
A liberal is someone who votes Democrat and admits when the party makes a mistake. Your name for that is a bothsider.
The good thing is the progressives have driven the liberals to the point where they are not going to come out to the next election. Your infighting will be your undoing.

At first, the Dem tech billionaire guys and Wall Street guys were all united in getting rid of Trump at all costs including the illegal ballot harvesting. The Dumb Dems here still do not acknowledge the cell phone data and cameras showing the same cars going to ballot stations hundreds of times. ("That does not prove anything".
But you reap what you sow, and they have put in place a guy who is so clueless when it comes to business, he is running the economy into the ground. He wants to spend money when inflation is rampant versus cutting back. He demonized the oil and gas industry and has appointed or attempted to appoint people who are on record of saying the oil and gas industries should and will go bankrupt. The only good thing he has done was nothing in that sense. He has done nothing with regards to getting us involved in Ukraine.
So the people who funded the demented one are scared. It looks like they are seeing first hand what a bad president who has no clue what to do with an economy looks like.

https://www.air.tv/watch?v=GOuR8SbJThmnfew5S_imUg
There were two eight page stories in the Washington Post 10 days ago, and the Washington Post is owned by the Trump hating and Dem loving sugar daddy for the Democratic party, Jeff Bezos.
So this was about Hunter and not Joe right? Well, maybe not.
"I hope you all can do what I did and pay for everything for this entire family for 30 years," said Hunter. "It's really hard. But don't worry, unlike pop, I won't make you give me half your salary."
Jim Jordan was on Maria Bartiromo's show and pointed out the Washington Post has been doing numerous articles on Hunter Biden's laptop.
He then points out how much that narrative has changed and where it went is wrong with this key text Hunter sent to his daughter. This text implicates Joe more than Hunter.
What is funny is how much the Dems will rush out and blast anyone who thinks this is a story, but it is the DDOJ (Democratic Department of Justice) and Dem sugar daddy Jeff Bezos who are pushing it. The question is why.
With the Republicans taking over the House and Senate in 2022, there may be grounds for impeachment there, but I do not think the Republicans will take it up. The Dems ballot harvesting and this story far exceed the ridiculous Ukrainegate and Russiagate hoaxes. These moronic Dems have pushed the bar of impeachment so low such that Congress can impeach a president not for illegal activity but just because they do not like him.
No, the scary part in all this is the dumb Dems impeachment record makes it such that choosing a God awful VP like Kamala Harris may be your best option against impeachment. As much as Republicans do not like Biden, the last thing in the world they want is a President Kamala Harris.
To me, it looks like the real leadership in the Dem party is putting the demented one on a very short leash.
Biden owns the oil issue, and we have documented why.
The fed increased the money supply because of the virus, so the rest of the inflation is not on Biden, however since the pandemic has ended and people can go back to work, he does not get credit for the so called job growth.

No, you are crazy. Everything good is Biden. Everything bad is Trump. You lack any capacity to be objective.You have documented nothing about oil. What you have done is offer conjecture as proof. That's the problem with Republicans. Since everything other than your opinion is "fake news", nobody can offer any kind of proof because you'll call it "fake news".
You have zero clue about job creation, etc. Again, the same problem as above arises because every proof is derided as "fake news".
Only people without enough IQ points to decorate a domino (ie Republicans) believe that Russia didn't want the Orange Buffoon elected and that his Ukraine phone call was perfect. And guess what, any and all proof to the contrary is derided as "fake news".
And yes, all Republicans are racists. They are also misogynists, transphobes, homophobes, xenophobes. You all want to go back to the '50's. Precisely, the 1850's when it was legal to own people and only white, male property-owners could vote. I guess Republicans forgot that many of your ilk rent homes or apartments.
By the way, you doofus, the Orange Menace was the one who lied to the American people about the seriousness of COVID. Had he not pulled all of the American scientists out of China in 2018, maybe we would have had a better handle on this thing. But telling people that it would all miraculously go away with the warm weather, to drink bleach or to shove a lightbulb up their asses wasn't the way to go. But, like everything else, you will say that this is all "fake news".
The pandemic is a partisan issue. But I simply don't care anymore. If the Republican strategy is to die in order to own the libs, far be it from me to interfere. In fact, I'll help you along. You are, supposedly adults, so if you want to do that, be my guest.
I will stand by my long-standing statement that it is easy to be a Republican. You just scream "fake News" at the top of your lungs and everything is fine.

Tell me who had it right. "Masks are not necessary" Fauci? The virus came from a lab in China created by the CCP and funded by Fauci. Trump had zero to do with anything bad and neither did Biden, and the proof is everywhere to be seen. Yes, a president did not cure a cold virus. What's next? Trump screwed up parting the Red Sea?
And this is why you are totally crazy. Seriously. If you do not get on meds, they are going to lock you up.Quoting some ignorant rightwingnut "source" as proof is ludicrous.
Obviously with the Fauci thing, you have absolutely no clue how science works. Taking somebody's comments early on in the pandemic when they didn't know how the virus spread and didn't know that 50% of infected people were asymptomatic is not only ludicrous but dangerous. You might as well deride scientists who said "disinfect all surfaces" because that's what they said early on. I remember reading something in March or April of 2020 and they were telling people to keep the grocery bags outside, then bring a few items into the kitchen and wipe them down with bleach and repeat.
The CCP / Fauci thing is also ludicrous. The CCP created the virus in a lab then let it loose on their own people? Really? That's your story? The "proof" only exists in rightwingnut media. But, for clowns who believe that the 2020 election was stolen and that Jewish space lasers cause forest fires, the fact that they believe this falsehood is understandable.
And, of course, you ignore the facts that the Orange Buffoon lied to the American people about COVID even though he knew the truth. And you ignore the fact the it was Hair Furor who politicized COVID. You ignore the fact that the Mango Mussolini screwed up just about everything with COVID. Pence would have done better.
The "cold virus" thing also shows that you don't know jack about science. COVID is not the same virus as a cold virus. Any reputable MD can tell you that. Since you only believe rightwingnut media, it is no wonder that you continue to push this lie.
As to the rest of my comment, I stand by it. Republican politicians, by their actions and by the laws they pass, want to go back to the 1850's. Let's ban the teaching of history! Let's take away rights from American citizens! Don't say gay! Let's make impossible for people of color to vote!
Republican politicians don't even want to let Ukrainian refugees into the US. And if they do eventually pivot, they'll have a hard time explaining how an actual war in Ukraine (where somebody can relocate 500 miles further west into relative safety) is different from MS13 dragging your family outside in the middle of the night, executing the husband then telling the wife that if she doesn't give them her kids, they'll kill every living member of her family.
Interesting. Inflation was still higher in the last month of Repub Reagan's first full year in office. And so was the Unemployment Rate. By a lot!
Consumer prices rose 8.5% in March, slightly hotter than expected and the highest since 1981
https://www.cnbc.com/2022/04/12/consumer-prices-rose-8point5percent-in-march-slightly-hotter-than-expected.html?__source=androidappshare
Headline CPI in March rose by 8.5% from a year ago, the fastest annual gain since December 1981 and one-tenth of a percentage point above the estimate.
Surging food, energy and shelter costs helped account for the gain.
Real worker earnings fell by another 0.8% during the month as the cost of living outpaced otherwise strong pay gains.Yep, you can be sure there were no "strong pay gains" under Repub Reagan to offset almost all of the pain of temporarily higher inflation as is the case under Biden while Reagan's even higher inflation was accompanied by an 8. 5% Unemployment Rate and climbing steadily well into 9% and then those whopping ten consecutive months of 10%+ Unemployment Rates during the Great Repub / Reagan Recession.
And that was despite Repub Reagan inheriting 2 back-to-back quarters of solid GDP Growth, steadily declining inflation and steadily declining Unemployment Rates from Dem Carter's far superior economy.

But, for clowns who believe that the 2020 election was stolen and that Jewish space lasers cause forest fires, the fact that they believe this falsehood is understandable.
And, of course, you ignore the facts that the Orange Buffoon lied to the American people about COVID even though he knew the truth. And you ignore the fact the it was Hair Furor who politicized COVID. You ignore the fact that the Mango Mussolini screwed up just about everything with COVID. Pence would have done better.
The "cold virus" thing also shows that you don't know jack about science. COVID is not the same virus as a cold virus. Any reputable MD can tell you that. Since you only believe rightwingnut media, it is no wonder that you continue to push this lie..https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/saudi-arabia-united-states-biden-nuclear-deal/2022/04/12/id/1065431/

While Biden's ongoing success in repairing the near total destruction of global supply chains due to Trump's Pandemic continues so well that overall prices minus food and Trump's invasion-happy boyfriend's energy inflation ticked downward, Repubs are panicking over the possibility that Trump's Pandemic inflation will stabilize before the November midterms and thereby ruin their chances of slithering into congressional leadership just in time to sit on their butts, do nothing as usual and take credit for the Biden / Dem roaring economy, jobs creation and wage gains occurring.
Consequently, Texas' Repub Governor Abbott has launched into a method of prolonging the crippling of critical supply chains due to Trump's Pandemic at the border:

His very first foreign trip as a so-called potus was to Saudi Arabia. When before was that the first foreign trip by a potus? I'll save you the Google Search; never.
How about as the undisputed leader of your beloved Republican Party, if Trump spent four years licking Saudi ass, every dutiful Repub in and out of office including you will race to be next to lick Saudi ass.

Quoting some ignorant rightwingnut "source" as proof is ludicrous.
Obviously with the Fauci thing, you have absolutely no clue how science works. Taking somebody's comments early on in the pandemic when they didn't know how the virus spread and didn't know that 50% of infected people were asymptomatic is not only ludicrous but dangerous. You might as well deride scientists who said "disinfect all surfaces" because that's what they said early on. And, of course, you ignore the facts that the Orange Buffoon lied to the American people about COVID even though he knew the truth.So Trump knew everything but "scientists" like Fauci knew nothing, and you give him a pass. That is why you Dems are crazy.
The CCP / Fauci thing is also ludicrous. The CCP created the virus in a lab then let it loose on their own people? Really? That's your story? The "proof" only exists in rightwingnut media.Again, you show me you are crazy by just making shit up. The lab leak theory was pushed by Josh Rogin of the Washington Post, a self admitted liberal Democrat. No one said it was purposefully let out, but China and safety do not go hand in hand. It is funny how you Dems talk about climate change and leave the Chinese alone. Maybe you should take a swim in some of the lakes there and let me know how it goes. Hopefully, you saw in the 2008 Olympics that the Chinese can actually see the air they breathe there is so much pollution.
The "cold virus" thing also shows that you don't know jack about science. COVID is not the same virus as a cold virus. Any reputable MD can tell you that. Since you only believe rightwingnut media, it is no wonder that you continue to push this lie.Again, you are crazy. Corona virus is a cold virus. This version of Covid was souped up to spread via the air and be even more contagious and deadly.
Republican politicians, by their actions and by the laws they pass, want to go back to the 1850's. Let's ban the teaching of history! Let's take away rights from American citizens! Don't say gay! Let's make impossible for people of color to vote!Maybe you should try talking to people who vote Republican and why they do. I get why seniors and college students are more likely to vote Democrat and yet you have no idea why people vote Republican outside of they are crazy. Maybe you should get on your meds and talk to people versus calling half the population racist and homophobes.

It is verbatim since I copied and pasted it. Please be so link as to point out the "every single word" in the above that was about Jared and Ivanka receiving $2 billion. There is not one word about it. You are the one that needs to type less. And actually understand the drivel that you post. You really need to go back to the third grade and learn reading comprehension.
The article:
"Middle East Broadcasting Center (MBC), a state-run TV network in Saudi Arabia, has taken a few satirical jabs at President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
For its comedy show "Studio 22," MBC recently satirized Biden and Harris in a skit, portraying America's highest-ranking political figures as forgetful, disorganized, and unprepared for public speaking.
The 68-second clip, which went viral in America Tuesday, starts out with Biden and Harris' characters walking onstage to greet photographers, supported by a number of USA Flags.
However, things got rocky after that.
First off, Biden points to an unseen member in the crowd, before abandoning the speaking podium altogether.
Upon being escorted to the microphone by VP Harris, Biden's character mutters.
"Thank you very much. . Today, we got to talk about the crisis {in} Spain."
(VP Harris stealthily corrects him.)
"Yeah, we've got to talk about the crisis in Africa."
(Harris corrects him again.)
"I want to talk about the president of Russia." Before seeking Harris' assistance once more.
"Putin. Yeah, Putin. Putin, listen up. I have (a) very important message for you. The message is." And then Biden's character falls asleep at the podium.
After waking up from a seconds-long nap, Biden's character transitions to, "And the president of China." Without finishing the previous thought.
And for a final act, Biden's character says, "Thank you to correct me, First Lady" — an erroneous reference to Harris' actual status as vice president. Biden then says, "Thank you very much, and may God bless th. ," before dozing off once more.
Harris' character then shouts, while holding Biden up: "Thank you all. Hallelujah! Clap to your president! Right now!
After that, she dragged Biden's character off the stage.
The state-run network mocking Biden and Harris during the Russia-Ukraine war had some people wondering whether the Saudis perhaps were signaling increased concern with the administration reportedly reviving the Iran nuclear deal.
Last month, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman reportedly refused to take a call from Biden, regarding a likely conversation about fuel prices and oil reserves."

Fuck, you could be all paid up with your attorney.

Rudy is in the toughest place imaginable for someone with an ugly 77 year-old ass.
He's being stiffed for most of the work he did in 2021.
He's been stripped of his bar license.
Dominion looks to be on the winning side of a 1.5 billion lawsuit.
He's the leader and creator of hundreds of false electors in seven states.
Something or someone's got to give.
And Rudy Giulian's looking like someone who can be turned..Rudy is helping the government these days.
Supplied them with a list of possible passwords for the numerous electronic devises seized from Rudy's home.
Rudy's testimony will sink TrumpShit.
So Trump knew everything but "scientists" like Fauci knew nothing, and you give him a pass. That is why you Dems are crazy.
Again, you show me you are crazy by just making shit up. The lab leak theory was pushed by Josh Rogin of the Washington Post, a self admitted liberal Democrat. No one said it was purposefully let out, but China and safety do not go hand in hand. It is funny how you Dems talk about climate change and leave the Chinese alone. Maybe you should take a swim in some of the lakes there and let me know how it goes.

Again, you are crazy. Corona virus is a cold virus. This version of Covid was souped up to spread via the air and be even more contagious and deadly.
Maybe you should try talking to people who vote Republican and why they do. I get why seniors and college students are more likely to vote Democrat and yet you have no idea why people vote Republican outside of they are crazy. Maybe you should get on your meds and talk to people versus calling half the population racist and homophobes.Once again, you have proven that you know absolutely nothing about what science is or how it works. First, during the early stages of the pandemic, scientists assumed that this corona virus behaved like every other corona virus they had encountered in the past. Those corona viruses were not airborne and spread by touch. That's why every reputable scientist said, early on, to do things like disinfect surfaces, don't touch your face, etc. Then, when it was discovered that this corona virus was different and that it spread in an airborne fashion, scientists changed their recommendation. If you enough IQ points to decorate a domino, you would know this. It is absolutely no surprise to anyone that you don't know.
Nobody cares who said what about the lab leak theory. It has not been proven one way or the other. It is, however, just like an ignorant Republican to say "We don't have any facts to prove it but we know we're right. "Just like the stolen election lunacy. "We can't prove the election was stolen but we know that it was."
Colds are caused by rhinoviruses. COVID is caused by a corona virus. And this particular coronavirus had never been seen in humans before. But the "don't have enough IQ points to decorate a domino" crowd has always tried to minimize what COVID is. Primarily because they are afraid of science.
That is an interesting premise of asking people why they vote Republican. I have. And I have found that, almost without exception, their rationale makes absolutely no sense. I used to understand why people voted Republican because I was one of them. But that was back back when Republicans actually had a platform that they ran on and a set of ideas they espoused. Over the past dozen years or so, however, the Republican party has morphed into something I don't recognize. Virtually every Republican-run state has (or will) enact laws that make it harder to vote. They have (or will) pass laws like Oklahoma's that force a pregnant raped woman to have her rapist's baby. They have (or will) pass laws that remove rights from the LGBTQ community. I realize that FUX "newZ" doesn't report things like this but they are already happening. Are the Republican voters in those states protesting against these laws? Nope. Therefore, since they aren't protesting against these laws, they approve of them. And if someone approves of a law that takes away the rights of black people or LBGTQ people, are they not racist or homophobic? Only somebody without enough IQ points to decorate a domino would say "No, these people don't have a racist or homophobic bone in their bodies!" Rubbish!

Then, when it was discovered that this corona virus was different and that it spread in an airborne fashion, scientists changed their recommendation.They did? I must have been dreaming about all that hand sanitizer being poured out.
Here is the thing with you dumb Dems you excuse "scientists" because they push your agenda. There is a huge difference between science and the Democrats lauding their "scientists".
Nobody cares who said what about the lab leak theory.You mean "science" loving and Chinese loving Democrats do not care because they do not want their butt buddies held accountable and unfairly blame Trump for the pandemic. Yeah, let's go after the guy who joked about bleach and let the guys who killed millions off the hook. This is just more evidence of how crazy you are. You Dems go off on someone using the and-word. As for the people who killed millions? Eh, no one cares. That is just nuts.
It has not been proven one way or the other.Well, there are two competing theories, and your "scientists" backed one and said anyone who did not agree with them were conspiracy theorists. Covid-19 occurring in nature is like most other Democratic "scientific" narratives, the only evidence it happened is the "scientists" said so. With the lab leak theory, the amount of evidence is staggering, and it was an independent minded self proclaimed liberal Democrat who shined the most light on this.
Colds are caused by rhinoviruses.Wrong! You just made that up: Rhinoviruses, influenza viruses, parainfluenza, and coronaviruses all make up cold viruses and I may be missing a few.
That is an interesting premise of asking people why they vote Republican. I have. And I have found that, almost without exception, their rationale makes absolutely no sense. I used to understand why people voted Republican because I was one of them. But that was back back when Republicans actually had a platform that they ran on and a set of ideas they espoused.

They have (or will) pass laws like Oklahoma's that force a pregnant raped woman to have her rapist's baby.Making it harder for people to vote by making them show ID? Maybe a case could be made about fewer polling stations in minority neighborhoods but there is early voting and absentee ballots. And I do not like the abortion laws either, but you have Dems supporting the swamp and the DDOJ denying people their freedom. And now you have the Dems embracing censorship and look at how each state reacted to Covid. Covid was the perfect Dem crisis. They enacted punitive and stupid restrictions just to prove they "care". It is so fucking stupid. I have to get a Covid test one day before coming back from Mexico but the people illegally crossing the border or legally coming across on foot do not. Why? The only reason is so Biden can distinguish himself from Trump, to say "I am doing something" even when that something that does not do shit with regards to Covid.

No one has blamed the Mango Mussolini "for the pandemic". What we do blame him for is for lying to the American people when he knew the truth (see Bob Woodward's book), politicizing defensive measures like wearing masks, promoting off-the-wall cures like ivermectin, telling people to inject bleach and shove lightbulbs up their asses, removing American scientists from China prior to the pandemic and for generally screwing up our response to the pandemic which saw the USA, with about 4% of the world's population have about 20% of the world's deaths during Hair Furor's reign of terror. FYI, according the the Orange Menace himself, he never jokes.
Republicans constantly bring up ID as a magical cure all for voting as you did above. Did Mark Meadows show ID in both places that he voted? Did the morons in The Villages in Florida show ID? How did that work out? I live in a neighborhood where only about half the families own a car. If the government moved our voting location to an area of the county that isn't served by public transportation, would that make it easier or harder for people to vote? Don't answer by giving me a bunch of alternatives. Just answer easier or harder. But getting back to ID, Republicans refuse to support a national uniform standard for what constitutes an ID. For some unknown reason, you morons believe that a hunting license with a photo is acceptable but a college ID with a photo isn't. Gee, I wonder why? Could it be that most people with hunting licenses vote Republican while most people with a college ID vote Democratic?
Once again, you bring up stuff that isn't relevant. But that is the typical Republican MO. You ought to be a Republican politician. You, MTG and BoBo would make a great team!

My clients are smarter than you. Most financial institutions have oil stocks at a buy right now so no smart investor is going to put a sell on their stock. Most dividends are paid in April so absolutely worst time to sell. My clients have a financial plan and it isn't anything you would understand.
And by the way. Only 3% of new cars sold in 2021. At this rate it is going to take 30 years to phase out gas cars.I think China might be the biggest manufacturer, seller and consumer of cars in the world today.

Because his political partner was Anti American Democracy, just like Elvis and MarkiMark.
According to rightwingnut news, the following never happened. FUX "newS", OANN and other moron sites have not reported on this since it happened Thursday. So, according to them, it never happened.
"A federal judge in the. See. On Thursday delivered a scathing rebuke of former President Donald Trump and expressed dismay over the state of American politics just moments after a jury found a defendant charged in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot guilty on all charges.
"You know, I think our democracy is in trouble," Judge Reggie Walton said at the conclusion of the third jury trial for a defendant charged in the Capitol assault. "Because unfortunately, we have charlatans like our former president, who doesn't in my view really care about democracy, but only about power. And as a result of that, it's tearing this country apart."
Walton, an appointee of former President George W. Bush and one of the most senior judges on the the. See. Court, said that he's received letters from people around the country expressing concern the justice system isn't confronting Jan. 6 -- which he called an "insurgency," with the seriousness it deserves.
"I have a concern that we have, unfortunately, American citizens who were so gullible that they were willing to accept what was being said without any proof that the allegations about the election had any merit whatsoever," Walton said. "People are just outraged at how they feel our system is not taking seriously what happened on that day because of their fear of the future of this country."
His remarks came after a jury delivered a guilty verdict for an Ohio man charged in the Jan. 6 assault on the USA Capitol who sought to defend himself by claiming he was following former Trump's "orders."
Dustin Thompson, 38, is the third defendant charged in connection with the Capitol attack to take their case before a jury. The six charges against him included one felony count of obstruction of Congress.
Rather than seeking to dispute the allegations against him -- that he joined the pro-Trump mob in storming the Capitol and stole a bottle of bourbon and a coat rack from the Senate parliamentarian's office, Thompson instead sought to place responsibility for his actions on Trump and his speech on the Ellipse where he urged his followers to March on the Capitol.
Dozens of others among the nearly 800 people charged thus far in the Justice Department's Jan. 6 investigation have sought to make similar arguments, putting the onus on the former president and his allies who tricked them into believing baseless conspiracy theories about a stolen election.
That Thompson's defense fell flat with a jury could have an influence on other alleged rioters holding out hopes they could adopt a similar strategy in their cases.
"Defense counsel wants you to focus so much on what President Trump said on the morning of Jan. 6, he wants you to forget what his client did on the afternoon of Jan. 6," assistant US attorney Bill Dreher said in closing arguments Thursday. "Ladies and gentlemen, you don't have to choose. This is not President Trump's criminal trial."
Speaking directly to the jury, Dreher said, "you can be mad about what happened that day, you can think what President Trump did was wrong, you can think that what he said that day led them to go do what they did."
"That doesn't matter," he continued. "As long as you find -- if you find, that Mr. Thompson knew that what he was doing was unlawful. He was 36 years old on Jan. 6. An adult, not a child. President Trump didn't hold his hand as he walked down to the Capitol to loot and defile the Senate Parliamentarian's office."
Dreher said that Thompson's effort to put the blame on Trump's words was not only irrelevant, but misleading -- because it doesn't appear based on data obtained from Thompson's Uber account that he was even present at Trump's Ellipse speech.
"It's a story that is not true and that does not hold up," Dreher said.
Following the reading of the verdict, Judge Walton ordered Thompson to remain in custody pending his sentencing and slammed him for his testimony in the trial, which Walton said he found "totally disingenuous" and "not truthful."
"I just don't think you can do what he did and what the other folks did if you're convicted and expect to be free," Walton said. "It's a consequence -- as my mother once told me, 'you make your bed you got to lie in it.'
Thompson is set to be sentenced in July."
It doesn't seem to matter to the idiot crowd, though. They are more concerned about siding with Putin. But it does look like the numbskulls who rioted on January 6th are blaming the instigator-in-chief, the Orange Buffoon himself.

LOL. They don't even try to hide the fact that they are feeding you and your ilk Kremlin composed America-hating, anti Amercan democracy, pro Repub campaign talking points.https://www.rt.com/news/553964-lobbyists-buy-congress-seats-brooks/
LOL. They don't even try to hide the fact that they are feeding you and your ilk Kremlin composed America-hating, anti Amercan democracy, pro Repub campaign talking points.Why, you didn't know? His grace loves Sputnik and RT. The nittier. The better, LOL.
Please define.
Anti Amercan democracy?
Do you mean the oligarchs that are literally against the American people and their free speech rights.
And their right to keep their families safe from the hordes of 3rd world criminals invading our country unabated by their puppets at the DNC.
America hating? You're projecting again.
You hate America so much you left 10 yrs ago during Barry Hussein's shitshow.
Only to move to a 3rd world country and never return, I'm sure glad everyone doesn't love America as much as you..I love America so much I vote straight Democrat down every ballot in every election I qualify to vote in and have since Reagan's first midterm as so-called potus.
I retired in a relative pussy and BJ paradise in my 50's thanks solely to the times my Dem votes prevailed and the Repubs had not weaseled in on the strength of their dutiful benefactors in MSM bamboozling voters into electing them on their non existent "superior" economic results.
Yes, American democracy is greatly flawed in that a small percentage of America-haters in swing states too often manage to install Repubs clearly against the overwhelming will of the majority and Repub gerrymandering allows for Dem voters to be effectively shut out of most House of Rep majorities lately.
But it is still a damn sight better than what American democracy-hating Repubs are trying to replace it with, which is a system where Repub appointees with the exact same disregard for the facts and truth and love for Great Repub Recessions and Massive USA Jobs Destruction as you, Canada and Elvis are permitted to throw out ballots from districts and demographics you don't like and only count ballots of fellow Repub QAnon loons.
Do you mean the oligarchs that are literally against the American people and their free speech rights.
And their right to keep their families safe from the hordes of 3rd world criminals invading our country unabated by their puppets at the DNC.You mean oligachs like Adelson, Koch and Singer. Well easy way to fix the oligach problem is to tax them. If they have hundreds of millions they can drop on an election then they can afford to contribute more to fund the military, infrastructure, social security etc!

Koch and Singer fought hard against Trump, that tells you everything you need to know about them.
The NRO calls Trump "a traitor to his class" tell me that's not epitaph worthy.

I retired in a relative pussy and BJ paradiseIt's a relative pussy and BJ paradise most anywhere including the USA for wealthy men, but that isn't you. You moved to an undeveloped country to get a minimal income to go further, as we all know so the swagger is hollow. And we are left to wonder how much time is left for BJs given all the time dedicated to posting daily to the likes of Marquis, Elvis, and CaliGuy / Canada. Occasionally there are some decent posts here but rarely from the daily warriors. It's a highly repetitive talking points circle jerk where no one looks good, irrespective of political bent.
