That’s what the Mueller investigation was; and the “news” of Ukraine’s heroics against Russia.
Here you go again Mr (not my) President -
Let’s discourage domestic production of fertilizer and buy from the Russians.
Because … fertilizer is made from ….
refined natural gas.
Oil and gas bad. Prices go thru the roof, cripple the economy. Buy from our enemies rather than provide jobs, lower energy costs, drive the green agenda at the cost of the American public.
From https://context.capp.ca/articles/2020/pirl-fertilizers/
Fertilizers from natural gas
“Nitrogen, together with phosphorous and potassium, is one of the biggest macro-nutrients required for plant growth. Natural gas is a commonly used as a feedstock to produce two nitrogen-based fertilizers – ammonia and urea – in large quantities.
In the production of ammonia or urea, natural gas is processed at an upgrading plant together with nitrogen (taken from the air). During the process, 80% of the gas is used as feed¬stock for fertilizer, while the remaining 20% is used for heat and electricity production. The two main end products, ammonium nitrate and urea, are then mixed with other ingredients—mainly phosphorus and potassium—to manufacture a range of synthetic fertilizers for use on farms.
The case for petrochemical fertilizers
Nitrogen-based fertilizers have been shown to drastically improve yields over organic means of fertilization, such as manure or compost. As such, use of synthetic fertilizers is about 50 per cent higher in Canada than it was a decade ago.
A key advantage of synthetic fertilizers is their ability to either be immediately available to plants—by virtue of their solubility—or to slowly release their active ingredients to provide an ongoing nutrient supply. Both of these properties can be highly desirable to farmers, as the former creates immediate growth response in the target, and the latter has longer-term benefits—like decreased costs—with less frequency required for fertilizer application.
We’ve been offshoring production due to cheap foreign labor for decades.
More that western MSM fails to realize or report.
“ The Hill pointed to a weak spot in the US. The country will not survive the energy crisis if Russia stops the supply of enriched uranium to American nuclear power plants. The country is already experiencing a fuel crisis, a record rise in prices, refusing to supply oil and petroleum products from the Russian Federation. But what will happen if Russia stops the supply of enriched uranium to American companies. Russia controls 40 percent of the global uranium enrichment market. The share of US nuclear energy exceeds 20 percent of generating capacity in some parts of the country.”
And Vlad says checkmate again.
And more:
Several dark web marketplaces are selling military weapons allegedly sourced from Western countries to support the Ukrainian military. It is likely that the weapons have been shelved from the main supplies and are now being sold to terrorists. In one of the markets called Thief, there are 9 ads from 3 suppliers associated with Ukraine.
A vendor called Weapons Ukraine sells rifles, grenades and body armor for prices ranging from $1,100 to $3,600, promising delivery within Ukraine. Despite the lack of reviews about the store, 32 people have already made a purchase.
Another supplier, Big Discounts on Weapons, offers an American Javelin anti-tank missile system for $30,000. The seller indicated the location of the goods in Kyiv.
In addition, the Black Market Guns store sells NLAW anti-tank missiles for $15,000 and the American Switchblade 600 Kamikaze UAV for $7,000.

Look who’s buying Ukrainian Wheat (see above) - EVERY DAMN COUNTRY, other than the last one is solid Muslim. Nothing wrong with that, but if their people do starve, Ukraine, or what’s left of it, will have quite a bit to answer for.
It seems that we’ve been put on the dirty end of the stick.....by the enemy within.
The Hillary Clinton uranium deal as to play a roll in our present predicament.
You have a good grasp of the situation.
So, what’s next? Biden quietly urging companies to purchase Russian oil?
It makes perfect sense to Demofarts. Use billions of dollars to send weapons to Ukraine so that the Ukrainians can kill Russian soldiers. Then, secretly purchase products from Russia so that Putin can continue the war to conquer Ukraine, while coincidentally killing thousands of Ukrainian soldiers who are armed with U.S. weapons paid for by the U.S. taxpayers.
If there is any validity to The Law of Supply and Demand, the fertilizer that daily spews from the mouth of Brandon Bite-Me should be the most abundant and therefore the cheapest on earth.
Well of course he does.
