Diesel will be $8 a gallon by the end of June.

Everything we do stateside appears to be helping Putin in the long term. Meanwhile most of the weapons we send are blown up as soon as they arrive in Ukraine.
Biden is not worried. He has been assured that a diesel shortage will not affect pudding deliveries. That’s not true, of course. But his handlers need to keep him calm.
As long as we fully fund Zelenskyy, I’m good with pain.
But we all got to fret about the Russians and Ukrainians killing each other off.
That is more important according to many on this web site.
The decrepit old fool is carrying out the wishes of the radical left: destroy the petroleum industry and limit us to the meager energy that we get from the sun and windmills.
It’s all part of the Democrats plan to punish the American people for supporting Trump over them.
It's not really him doing it though. It's someone else. He just signs off on it all.
Let’s Go, Brandon!
This could shut down the entire country, period.
If only these truckers had some way to transport fuel from, say, Texas over to the east coast where it is needed.
Prepare for a catastrophic for the next 3 years with that stooge.
If only we could drill baby drill and flood the markets with our own domestically produced oil and natural gas, we could actually collapse the Russian economy. Bonus points for moving production out of China and collapsing their economy, as that would remove Russia’s only dependable market for their energy, and make America rich.
1. The commie trash in charge couldn’t care less about the plight of peasants. After all, if the elites need anything they will just send their servants to a store (yes, that is irony).
2. The fuel must flow if the elites are to continue to get their cut from the Uk gov’mt. After all, that is why we are shipping them cash — so the cut can be returned. That is the business model in place here. Same model was employed with BLM.
What action is that?
Certainly can't expect GP to explain anything.
The first thing they need to do is STOP all deliveries within 100 miles of DC and the entire state of Delaware
This claim is preposterous. If US diesel is being shipped to Europe it's because the Europeans are willing to pay more, just like US natural gas is being turned into LNG and shipped there despite rising US prices.
The more likely cause is Biden's regulatory strangulation of the US economy. Every stage of fuel production and delivery is being strangled by the Federal government:
Leasing quashed
Methane and other EPA restrictions on existing wellheads
Bans on oil & gas pipelines
More environmental strangulation of refineries, plus uncertainty in supply means shut-downs and restarts to adjust to new fuel sources
Mind-numbing regulation of trucking
Local and state regulatory and tax asshattery
If this results in fuel and food shortages in the Northeast, then good: they need to get what they voted for good and hard.
American agriculture runs on diesel and shortages and high prices are bound to be felt at the grocery store in the form of even higher prices and empty shelves.
