"The global #economy🚨is literally breaking down. Bc of Trump's disastrous war, Asia is enforcing 4-day work weeks, Australia is running out of fuel, & Egypt is forcing blackouts.🚨The American empire's aggression is destroying the world."
-F Gozukara

Congress is on vacation for two weeks bc Thune & Johnson are leaving the economy, #DHS, #IranWar... up to Trump. Everyone in the #TrumpRegime is abdicating their roles as lawmakers & govt servants.

@KimPerales Not to downplay the pure fuckery of the Trump cosplay crew, but the US produces more oil and petroleum than it uses of either. I doubt Pedoboy and his Handjobbers will have a problem cutting off our clients to keep voters complacent.

We're still dependent on imported oil.

U.S. refineries are set up to process imported oil. Over 60% of U.S. refinery capacity is optimized for heavy crude processing, not U.S. oil.

Upgrading a single refinery to handle lighter crude can cost between $100 million to $1 billion.

@kralcttam @KimPerales Interesting that Trump claims control of the largest heavy crude reserves in the world, in Venezuela.

Here is the referenced map, showing the oil impacts by date due to shipping distance.

The market is now expecting Trump to declare victory and oil will drop back to $80, but they also see a roughly 40% chance of an extended conflict that lasts through June, where oil hits $200 and U.S. gas prices jump to about $7 a gallon.
