What is driving this higher demand for diesel?

That, my friend, is the $64,000 question. There are no service stations in the U.S. showing this increase in demand, but somebody is buying it.

Democrats Senator John Fetterman voted with the Republicans.

Fetterman may be on to something. We need more Dinos.

Nope. Don't agree with any of them.

1. Ban all stock trading.
A person shouldn't have to liquidate their 401k just because they run for office. The SEC should, however, have a special investigation division for government office holders. They sure investigate the hell out of corporate office holders.

2. Ban all participation in prediction markets.
Where do you stop? Are politicians not allowed to go to Vegas? Again, disclosure, visibility and oversight should be enough.

3. Mandatory retirement at 75 years old.
I know several people over 75 that I think are doing a great job at what they do.

4. Mandatory blind trust for individuals with a net worth more than $1 million.
Yeah, right. That's pretty much everybody in Washington.

5. Ban all foreign gifts to public officials, including foreign investments in their businesses or other entities.
Same as above. Gift giving is a gesture as old as time and disclosure, visibility and oversight should be enough. The rules are already in place.

Didn't J.D. just cut them off because they were fraudulently redirecting our money?

It doesn't matter what they say. The left will vote that way, anway.

I'm becoming more convinced each day that you could literally run on a platform stating that you will pass legislation to publicly execute every child born over the next 4 years and if you have that "D" by your name, half the population will still vote for you.

I was expecting this to be an expose' about fraud.

Taxpayer fraud has been legislated in California for 25 years.

The two senators also cautioned that the Trump administration is prepared to let another $725 million expire next week, rather than spend it before the fiscal year ends Sept. 30.

We can't keep letting him get away with giving money back to the taxpayers! We just can't!

Drugs coming in from Louisiana?

Not LSU related. It's a NOLA pipeline that's been running for 50+ years.

I'm not getting into a pissing match over semantics, but you lost all credibility with this statement,

You and your KDS jumped to conclusions and assumed he was talking about Oxford.

You know, I know, and everyone who saw or heard the presser knows that he was 100% taking a jab a Oxford. He can't help it. Saying otherwise is a whole new level of cope.

---

there is direct correlation between the Straits being closed and prices shooting up

---

There is no correlation between the current price of diesel and the price of oil or the supply of oil, which totally negates the Strait as an issue at all. I've been ringing this bell for a month. What's driving up the price of diesel is simply that the demand for diesel has gone through the roof, and there is no more refining capacity. If you arrived in Galveston tomorrow with a trillion barrels of oil, the price of diesel would not change.
