That’ll teach them to export their trash criminals.

“We are hereby reversing the concessions that Crooked Joe Biden gave to Nicolás Maduro, of Venezuela, on the oil transaction agreement,” Trump wrote.

Crooked Joe Biden

Say it loud and often.

AP - heartless Trump cuts their lifeline.

Stopped reading at AP

[PeterPrinciple]

Trump’s post did not specifically mention California-based Chevron

why is that in the article? Chevron is moving out.

[HYPOCRACY]

AP doesn’t realize that most Americans want financial lifelines cut to commie shitholes that export their gangs to the US.

[bray]

The end of Communist support by Big Brother.

[Red6]

Fair enough.

No lies - transparent - consistant.

Now, you don’t have a US firm (Cheveron) making billions all at the same time while the US government is trying to over throw the government there as was the case in the past.

Chevron ? I thought they owned CITGO...I know I’m missing something but I can’t find out what ...

[logi_cal869]

So be it, but all that means is that we’ll have to import the heavy crude from somewhere else to supply those refineries.

Otherwise, all this does is raise the price of everything.

“they” being Venezuela owning CITGO...

[Mr. Lucky]

Yeah, well Venezuela doesn't need the US.

(It's gone to Hell all on its own)

“...“they” being Venezuela owning CITGO.....”

I think thye do, along with owning 2 huge refineries here in the US: Corpus Christi, TX and lake Charles, LA.
IIRC, both of those refineries are the only ones engineered to handle that heavy black crude that comes from Venezuela.....and the Canadian tar pit stuff.

Indeed. It’s a marathon, not a sprint. You can do it!

Heb 11

1b And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, 2a fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith.

[The Truth Will Make You Free]

WINNING!

You gotta play hardball with the hardheaded.

[stylin19a]

so where does Chevron come in ?

[lurk]

The only export we should support coming out of VZ is Maduro.
