When Oil Hits $75 - $80 Dollars A Barrel

Will Krasnov's Big Oil buddies keep gasoline below 3 dollars a gallon? Low gas prices are keeping inflation from skyrocketing which would really make Krasnov look bad.

There was talk that the US was going to partner with Israel and bomb Iran. I see today Krasnov is walking that back. Did Putin veto it? Did our generals grow a spine and say no? Did someone advise Krasnov that bombing Iran would send the price of gasoline skyrocketing?

until the Dems do something and then they’ll find an excuse for the prices to be manipulated upwards and blame Dems.

Funny how you don’t hear calls for the new oil drilling permits they so desperately said they needed while Biden was president.

I hope in ‘29 the Democrats have a better, louder, and constant come back for that lane complaint when it returns.
