Energy prices have been high since the US-Israel war with Iran began and the strait of Hormuz was blocked
US gas prices this month are so far the highest ever recorded for August as peace talks between the US and Iran have stalled and Donald Trump launched fresh threats against Oman.
The national average price of gas was $4.06 per gallon on Monday, according to data from AAA, $0.05 higher than last week and $1 more expensive than a year ago. In California and Hawaii, averages hit about $5.50 a gallon.
Energy prices have been high since the US-Israel war with Iran began at the end of February and the strait of Hormuz, a crucial waterway through which a fifth of the oil passes, was blocked.
It’s a good thing the Americans voted in the worst presidential is US history only to double down and do it again. Absolutely zero faith in your average American voter. Good luck 🙃
Seems a bit of oversimplification. Even in the districts of “The Squad” elected Trump. AOC asked her constituents why they elected Trump, a lot of it is more like protest votes on the neoliberal Democrats and failure to address the cost of living crisis. At the very least, Americans are finally waking up to take charge by primarying neoliberals away, rather than simply following the silly thought terminating cliché that is “vote blue no matter who.”
You don’t understand. This just makes them angrier at Obama.
