Thanks to Trump and the GOP, Diesel broke a new record today hitting $6.52 a gallon. And regular gas is now up 70% since Trump's war began. Has your wages gone up 70% to cover that? Nope. But you know who is richer? Trump's Big Oil oligarchs who funded his campaign. It's the Golden Age for them!

So Trump is asking Ukraine to stop attacking Russia's energy infrastructure.

And no one points out that this same fool never asked Russia—or his friend Putin—to... stop attacking Ukraine's energy infrastructure.

In short, every single day, this monster shows exactly whose lackey he is.

There are some people in this administration who are imbecilic true believers (e.g., Hegseth, Kash). There are others who know exactly what they're doing and why it's wrong, but who want power. Rubio is in the latter group.

To quote Dylan, "All the money you made /
Will never buy back your soul."
Marco Rubio claims that if it wasn't for Trump, diesel prices would be $18 a gallon 🙃

This seems like a pretty big deal: donors made illegal contributions to Susan Collins and then were awarded lucrative contracts after her office intervened with the Navy. An FBI investigation was dropped under Trump.

Note also that Russia specifically targeted and struck US businesses in Ukraine repeatedly over the last several weeks. No complaints about this from Rubio and Trump. Apparently it's okay for Putin to strike them. A brazen pro-Putin attitude.

This is a very weird way for Rubio to talk about *Russian* oil tankers which might be carrying oil in which US companies have some interest. They are perfectly legitimate targets. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Marco Rubio: "The one thing we are concerned about is that over the last few months on a number of occasions American-linked ships, American oil supplies, have been targeted -- probably not deliberately -- but targeted nonetheless by Ukraine. That needs to be addressed. We can't have that happen."

"Oh my God, all of it is for sale." When federal agents raided a defense contractor’s office, they uncovered a 50-page roadmap detailing how campaign cash was allegedly traded for tens of millions in government contracts. Then, the entire investigation was shut down. Why?

This didn't happen. What actually happened is that Russia deliberately bombed several American businesses in Ukraine.

​The Bunge oilseed plant was hit right after Senator Blumenthal's visit in a twisted demonstration of power.

NEW: In ‘24, the FBI sought to launch a sweeping bribery probe that could ensnare top lawmakers, including Sen. Susan Collins.

Then Trump eviscerated the FBI & DOJ public corruption teams.

ProPublica unearthed the investigation and you can read it 👇

Corrupt Susan Collins saved by a Kash Patel and Pam Bondi cover up. bsky.app/profile/prop...
Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign.

The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers.

Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵

There is no substitute for cooperation, especially on big issues such as AI. The problem is in the US we elected a president that only knows win-lose. We continue to pay for electing such a narcissist.

Trump is considering data centers on 6 states' public land — some state officials say they had no idea. Trump wants to give the tech bros 17,000 acres of public lands for data centers, meaning they won't be public lands ever again.
