What also will happen is that oil company execs will be getting phone calls from the White House DEMANDING that they not pass along the price increases for the next month...or else. After all, any increase in price helps the Fascists (Republicans).

But how will they respond???

:: OPEC countries are notorious for cheating on any pre-set “production quotas” ::

It doesn’t matter.
Thye narrative is set.
When all the paper-shuffling is done, there will be a drop in OPEC production.

Again, “on paper” there will be a reduction.
It will be reflected at the pump but not likely ‘reality’ at the refinery level.

This is actually a 3 million barrel per day cut.

2 million cut by OPEC+
1 million cut by halting the draining of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve

I’m thinking that OPEC is SENDING A MESSAGE to the West about their insane idea of trying to cap the price paid for Russian oil.

Yes, Russia is part of this OPEC+, so this applies to them as well.

Also, this is payback for the attacks on hydrocarbon energy producers and the push for the BEVs and the Green New Deal.

Russia wants US out of the war and the Saudis want Trump back.

So of course they simply shut gas down right before the election.

Gas in Western Lower Michigan had been as high as $5.25 and had dropped to $3.26 with the selloff of the strategic reserve oil. Now back to $4.50 in the last month. Going to squeeze a lot of people. Still see a lot of newish pick up trucks driving around. Wonder how they are going to pay to fuel them up? And who they will blame come the election date?

...and if you look at the flip side - what if the caps work, or are at least perceived to work? Then why not extend them to ALL of OPEC? And if that happens, the countries that rely on oil exports (Arab countries far more than Russia) will have to decide whether to become economic colonies to the West, or try to hold out until the West comes to their senses.

“ragging MBS for years over that journalist who got chopped up ::

You are correct. He supported the Arabian fundamentalists that MBS was pushing to the side. Hooray!!!! He was a major pest, so of course the libs and Dems loved him, who was prolly getting paid by some of the billionaires that MBS locked up in a luxury hotel for 2-3 months, until they gave up some of their billions.

Mr. Chopped had a sordid history. He was a Washington Post “journalist” so our US presstitutes raised hell about his demise
