Hello warmongers. Are you watching gasoline prices?
According to the AAA Fuel Tracker, the national average gasoline price of regular gasoline jumped 6.5 cents today $4.176 per gallon
That’s the highest price since the beginning of the war.
The price has not been that high since April 2022, shortly after Russia invaded Ukraine.
Brent vs West Texas Intermediate
West Texas Intermediate Crude (WTIC) jumped above $100 again before settling at $99.64.
The global benchmark price of Brent crude rose above $105 a barrel for July delivery.
The price for oil deliverable in June rose above $110 per barrel for the first time this month. It’s $110.80 as I type.
Brent’s price has risen about $10 per barrel over the past week.
Iran Allegedly In State of Collapse
Truth Social: Iran has just informed us that they are in a “State of Collapse.” They want us to “Open the Hormuz Strait,” as soon as possible, as they try to figure out their leadership situation (Which I believe they will be able to do!). Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
