I like pictures. The pipeline out goes to Houston refineries.

The Flanagan line passes through at least one Indian reservation. The Keystone, not Dakota line, was the subject of mass protests.

Cushing = Chokepoint.

The SPR is in the salt caverns elsewhere.

LtC Steve Murray and Matt Bracken did a kick ass last minute roundtable this evening when news broke today on Iran. The last half hour was focus on Suez and Russian Northern shipping route. Its on his Rumble channel.

Joey want the price of oil to be sky-high, and to suppress Israel. Encouraging (think $) to both Iran and Iraq was all part of his plan to "destabilize" the region and achieve this end.

Of course that will hurt the US - that is the point. The Strait of Hormuz interlopers are not on point though since it will ultimately hurt Biden's "masters" in the CCP - he might not make his 10 percentsky this month.

There must be a calculator out there somewhere that will tell me the pump price of gas at $150 barrel of oil. The current price of Brent crude(the standard now, no longer West Texas Intermediate)is $90. I've read that the increase is .03-.05 a gallon for every dollar increase. I'm calling that vague, and it varies from state to state.

The 3-4 west coast states have the highest taxes on gas and the highest prices, so I would expect the increase of .05 per gallon around here but less in the Midwest. But gas prices are going up, we just don't know how much yet.

Using an easy number of $7/gal. would be extremely inflationary, would cause an immediate recession, and Trump easily wins a second term. Remember Comrade Biden drained the SPR to its lowest level in 40 years to lower inflation, so that was a one trick pony and can't be done again.

The point is that we are close enough to the November election now that the voters will remember this and vote accordingly.

I’m a big fan of LTC Steve Murray rumble channel there.

I’ve followed a lot of different analysts and prognosticators over the years, and still do, but this has become my favorite go-to of late.

Panic Early, Beat the Rush!

So the administration gave millions of dollars to Iran to appease them and make the left happy. Which they used to make drones and rockets and attack Israel. So now we are going to give Israel money to defend itself from the rockets we paid for. This is so stupid you can’t even make this stuff up. And the morons that engineered this are considered professionals.
