This is crazy. I stopped for gas just now having no idea what was happening. It’s out. People here told me they’d been to other stations and found the same. pic.twitter.com/7LDVdUXPo4

This tells me there is far more going on than is being said

Very much agree!

Help is on the way, as DOT is Quickly relaxing trucking transportation requirements in 17 states... seventeen states.

‘Topping Off’ is the type of behaviour that cultivates long lines. As they say here in B’More, ‘every man for his self’

Our power transmission grid, power plants, water treatment plants and pipelines are wide open to these sort of disruptions. A coordinated attack would mean China and Russia wouldn’t even have to invade for a year... 90% of the population would be dead within a year.

Biden/Hunter/Ukraine......makes our illegitimate person in the WH VERY prone to blackmail and also makes him impotent to respond to threats to the United States. Jan 20, 2020 was the most dangerous day in American History.

“It’s The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)”

That’s great! It starts with an earthquake
Birds and snakes, an aeroplane
and Lenny Bruce is not afraid

Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn
World serves its own needs, don’t mis-serve your own needs
Speed it up a notch, speed, grunt, no strength
The ladder starts to clatter with fear of height, down height
Wire in a fire, representing seven games
In a government for hire and a combat site
Left of west and coming in a hurry
With the furies breathing down your neck

Team by team reporters baffled, trump, tethered crop
Look at that low plane! Fine, then
Uh oh, overflow, population, Common Food
But it’ll do. Save yourself, serve yourself
World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed
Tell me with the rapture and the reverent in the right, right
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light
Feeling pretty psyched

It’s the end of the world as we know it
It’s the end of the world as we know it
It’s the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine

Six o’clock. TV hour
Don’t get caught in foreign tower
Slash and burn, return
Listen to yourself churn
Lock him in uniform and book burning, bloodletting
Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate
Light a candle, light a votive
Step down, step down
Watch a heel crush, crush
Uh oh, this means no fear; cavalier
Renegade and steer clear!
A tournament, a tournament
A tournament of lies
Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives
And I decline

It’s the end of the world as we know it
It’s the end of the world as we know it
(It’s time I had some time alone)
It’s the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine
(It’s time I had some time alone)
I feel fine

It’s the end of the world as we know it
(It’s time I had some time alone)
It’s the end of the world as we know it
(It’s time I had some time alone)
It’s the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine
(It’s time I had some time alone)

The other night I tripped a nice
Continental drift divide
Mountains sit in a line
Leonard Bernstein, Leonid Brezhnev
Lenny Bruce, and Lester Bangs
Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly beans, boom!
You symbiotic, patriotic, slam, but neck, right? (Right!)

It’s the end of the world as we know it
(It’s time I had some time alone)
It’s the end of the world as we know it
(It’s time I had some time alone)
It’s the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine
(It’s time I had some time alone)

It’s the end of the world as we know it
It’s the end of the world as we know it
It’s the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine
(It’s time I had some time alone)

It’s the end of the world as we know it

Yeah....the timing is just a little suspicious eh?

We have a “Green New Deal” POTUS and “all of a sudden” anything related to oil is having issues....and they call this a “private industry issue”. This isn’t incompetence...

I just hope and pray these ‘hackers’ are white hats. Could be black hats, though.

“””Long lines in Spanish Fort and Mobile, AL and Pensacola yesterday.”””


Mobile and Pensacola should have no supply problems as they get supplied by barge into the big petroleum terminals at Mobile and Panama City.

Likewise, all of Florida should be ok as our petroleum products come by barge into marine terminals on the Gulf Coast and Atlantic sides of Florida.

Well, there were long lines yesterday in Spanish Fort/Mobile, AL and Pensacola yesterday regardless of barges.

“I just hope and pray these ‘hackers’ are white hats. Could be black hats, though.”

Shutting down a system is NEVER a White Hat hacker. The very definition of a White Hat hacker is someone who operates for the benefit and in cooperation of the system owner.

I would think so which makes me wonder, who REALLY is behind this outage.

Seems this administration is intent in making everyone’s lives miserable in so many ways.

That’s why I filled up on Saturday when I first heard of the pipeline issue here on FR.

Yesterday I found the last remaining $3.09/gal gas here in the far southwest suburbs of Shitcago. Filled both vehicles to the brim. Heard that many of the tankers here in the Midwest were being shipped to the East Coast due to Colonial pipeline shutdown (hacking...) and that we should expect to see $4+/gal gas here very soon.

I am NOT happy that the idiot infesting the White House cancelled the Keystone Pipeline and that it took the incompetent imbecile dementia addled pResident Xiden 4 days to "respond" to this issue.

If this had been a President Trump administration the media would be screaming "Trump's fault" at the tops of their lungs. But hey, it's their boy in the White House so it's all good, right?

When there were the long gas station lines of Jimmy Carter's shame, I found that if I went to smaller stations out of town there was not the problem like in the big city.

It is all being orchestrated to achieve their 2030-2050-2070 goals to mold our behavior so we will leave our cars and move into compacted cities and rely on buses and scooters to get around.

To quote Jake Blues - "I hate Illinois nazis."

Shutting down a system is NEVER a White Hat hacker.

It's no different than any other "temporary" disruption and extortion, however in this case it involves domestic security and the "lax" response from our government is not comforting. It's not any different that kidnapping the CEO or bombing a transmission line, this is serious stuff.

Smells like a false flag to me.

The timing of it is remarkable. Right when Covid is fading off and right before labor day. An excuse to raise prices?

Oh and the States impacted were States that were more free during the lockdown. Seems quite remarkable.

I have no evidence, but I would not be surprised if this is an inside job.

The Jimmy Carter gas lines all over again...

Summer of 1979, the second oil crisis hit, after the disastrous crisis of 1973. Each of these crises separately made a terrible hit on the Presidency, leading to resignation by Richard Nixon, and defeat in the polls by Jimmy Carter.

Joe Stolen is letting these things accelerate at a much faster rate than has been seen up to now.
