Lol
LMAO even
300,000 barrels aint enough to rate all the concern anyway
After yesterday, this prez admin has no incetive to spend time and money to placate the masses in any way, real or fake. Instead their interest lays in grifting as much as possible in the time they have left, and hurting Americans as much as possible because the pain will be ascribed to the democrats. So there was likely a phone call to Moscow - “Turn the diesel back.”
Yup. It’s gonna be pure sabotage for the next 2 years. And absolutely everything is going to be blamed on Dems.
I think it’s even more than that. People can indicted. Not just Trump. All of them. Crimes are going to be prosecuted. Theres something big going on and it’s not going to be just trump stealing money. They dont want to lose a war or go to prison. That includes the whole trump family and putin with his war as well.
You have higher hopes for justice than I do. I hope you’re right. 😄
Normally, I would totally agree. But this isn’t the justice system. Congress can indict anyone they want with a majority and no one blocking it. Its not a trial, and if you don’t go it’s contempt. They people voted in know that this is why they were voted in. Lying is perjury. You’ll have a senator yelling at Don Jr “did your company make money off of that decision either directly or indirectly? Would they have made that money had that decision not been made? Or- Did you have affiliations with the CEO of that company before they were awarded the contract?” Then he’ll say something like “I did not know him” and then they’ll say “well, we subpoenaed records from your golf club and found you played golf with him no less than 7 times last year…”
You’re thinking about the technical ability to do it. I agree 100% there’s avenues to fuck them up. What I doubt is that the Democrats would actually use the tools to do it. I know there’s a few insurgent progressives that would absolutely prosecute the shit out of the hogs. I think they won’t get enough support from the do-nothing corporate Democrats that are paid by the oligarch class. We’ll see tho. I hope they realize that this will get them primaried.
It was all just a stunt for the election anyway. Now that it’s over, they don’t need it anymore and Trump can stop pretending he gives a shit about the fuel prices again.
It’s not like importing a couple days’ worth of fuel was gonna change prices anyway. It was just a way to funnel money to daddy putin.
It’s not funneling money to Putin. It was a purely political move. Diesel markets are fungible and efficient. Russia has been forced to import diesel from Belarus, South Korea, and others to ensure their reserves are healthy
Them selling diesel to the US is basically just shifting purchases around. Russia doesn’t make money in any real terms for it. It was simply a hail mary play from Trump to convince voters that he’s doing everything possible to keep fuel prices down
Not even a couple of days, just 18 hours according to the Guardian.
Russia badly wanted to sell that oil. Local governors where already making noise that buyers were in for legal trouble and last night’s results put the final nail in the coffin.
Russia has too little Diesel for its own economy. Or what’s left of that.
That was the weirdest thing about that deal: Russia is forced to import diesel because Ukraine has taken so much of the refinery capacity offline.
So Putin would be sending diesel to America and make that up by importing more? Clearly, this was a PR operation aimed at making it seem Trump was doing something about diesel prices, and that it was Ukraine’s fault that they were so high.
Everything for Agent Krasnov. Not that hes in the shitter the resources are diverted to more pressing matters.
Russia had an export ban on diesel. What is your reasoning for believing Russia “badly wanted to sell” it?
It’s a critical resource for their invasion of Ukraine. It is in short supply globally, as well as within Russia. Why would they want to sell it?
My first thought: that’s ridiculous…
But then I recall the vile man has done lots of ridiculous stunts.
Boycott Russia yes but maybe the oil could go to Cuba since the US has blockaded them so badly?
Djt- Pedophile of the United States of israel
Reminds me of the Bay of Pigs. Real American patriots doing their duty (voting) caused those ships to turn around.
Yeah, that’s not very typical. I’d like to make that point.
Well, how is it untypical?
For one, the front isn’t supposed to fall off.
Well, there’s a lot of these ships going around the world all the time and very seldom does anything like this happen. I don’t want anyone thinking that tankers aren’t safe.
Good time to issue some letters of marque.
Default Donny probably hasn’t paid the invoice.
Donnie Low T has propably alrady paid the invoice double and triple, lest the russians do release the golden shower tape, and god knows what else
The diesel is sanctioned, no one would touch it just because Donny Shitzenpants said it was cool
He is infamous for not paying contractors after all
I feel dirty even saying it, but it’s honestly pretty funny that Putin shipped 140,000 tonnes of diesel into the middle of the Atlantic just to pull a fake out move.
they will have another buyer lined up probably in South America or Africa, where the sanctions aren’t as common
Russia has had diesel shortages for months, that fuel will probably head straight back to Russia.
Was never about the
deiseldiesel. Was always about removing bipartisan sanctions from Pooty-poot to generate money for him to murder more children. Straight-up evil.Deisel
Would 6 hours of diesel do much anyways?
I got banned on reddit when they left port for saying “sure would be a shame if something happened to it, and these losers driving diesel who voted for this get no relief”
“Inciting violence” apparently.
At least I get my wish. Funny that.
I got banned from reddit for disagreeing with someone who wished Trump dead. I said I hopped he had a stroke and lived a long miserable life. “Inciting violence”. The guy who wished him dead was not banned.
Got banned on reddit years ago for trash taking Russia. Imagine that.
