Crude has climbed back toward $110, but the bigger problem may be further down the supply chain. Tight diesel inventories, refinery disruptions and changing trade routes are forcing Western governments to balance energy security against sanctions, affordability and supply.

No shit…
The Russian deal is literally just till the election, Trump’s doing everything possible to hide reality from voters, but it’s not gonna be enough.
Republicans just won’t turnout for this election, or likely the next one.
They’re an obstruction party, so actually having control is like a dog catching a mail truck…
There’s nothing for them to do, so they give up. It’s only fun when they’re trying to catch it, not after they catch it.
Progressives on the other hand get more motivated the more they win, without neoliberals sandbagging the DNC were most likely at the beginning of a generational snowball.
Please don’t assume this! Like people assumed Hillary would suuuurely win over the joke of a candidate that Trump was in 2016.
Go and vote!
That was only people not paying attention, and people who thought repeating something enough would make it true.
Everyone should always vote.
Being informed and voting is better, and you don’t need to say “go vote” every time an election is brought up, especially not in online forums devoted to politics.
Yes, please do. While Lemmy-Americans seem likely to vote, and to vote against fascism, it’s taking things for granted that lose elections
This time around it’s extra-important. Too many people only vote in presidential elections and skip the years without. However it’s critical to put the brakes on fascism. Everyone needs to vote
There is no Russian deal. No Russian diesel will ever be shipped to the US, at least not directly or as part of any specific deal. Trump just did the populist thing and told people a lie they wanted to hear.
I would normally agree, but this time around the Republicans really went as far as they could in the direction of enshittification. I can barely recognize the same country of ten years ago!
Because the only other option was Biden and he kept making shit even shittier…
The neoliberals shuffling his corpse around no longer have control of the national party, and are losing the states they still control.
That problem was solved already, people are getting things to vote for, and we’re already seeing it payoff all over. It’s not gonna change unless oligarchs convince people that voting is useless when it matters now more than ever: because voters are picking candidates instead of the party.
