Brent crude oil rose to a six-month high on Friday, as investors increasingly expect the U.S. to resume strikes on Iran in the coming weeks.
President Donald Trump said Wednesday that the U.S. was not negotiating with Iran and something would happen “fairly soon.” His cryptic remarks came as U.S. officials told The New York Times that the U.S. and Israel have plans for fresh strikes on Iran after the midterm elections.

What people don’t understand is that this benefits the United States.
It benefits me every time I fill up, or how everything is more expensive?
Gas prices have dropped 15c where I live. Reduced demand and Winter blends. Also El Nino means the Northern part of the country will be warmer with less snow...meaning less demand for heating oil.
The war that hurts the world is the Ukraine/Russian war. That war was started by our MFing Deep State/NSTO, and the UK/EU that began pilfering Russia’s resources as soon as the Russian people overthrew Communism.
END OF STORY.
In the end we will all know what they did to us all, when we all stand before the Lord of Heaven snd Esrth.
The national average price for a gallon of diesel is $6.28 (according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration) or about $6.32 to $6.33 (according to AAA Fuel Prices)
Sure, because this current price hike only started with the Iran War and the closing of the Strait of Hormuz where Middle Eastern oil and diesel happens to cross.

Middle East produces almost twice as much diesel as Russia, and was shipped through the Strait of Hormuz.
But we are told oil is flowing out of the Strait of Hormuz at the level of before the war.
They went up $.28 a gallon overnight here.
Don’t let the Zeepers hear you say that.
Still waiting for it to benefit me.
Things are going so badly for the Dems now they eleites are spiking oil futures for no reason other than to throw the election.
After Biden's inflation fiasco ended and gas prices came down, the prices of goods didn't. They never do.... and they won't here either.
This is what the low information voter sees and those low info's vote accordingly. Forget the dyed-in-the-wool Democrat voters. They vote Dum each and everytime.
