This seems like more pre-election hot air from Trump like his $5000 bribe checks.

Russia has to deliver it and Ukraine has become very good at blowing up refineries, ports and oil tankers

All of which make me wonder if this is another empty Trump promise, like his $5000 bribes to vote for Republicans

Russia has to be able to refine it and deliver it. Ukraine has been doing a good job of blowing up Russia's refineries, ports and shadow fleet tankers. I wouldn't expect them to stop. There are already widespread fuel shortages in Russia.

Buying Russian diesel will not moderate global diesel prices substantially (for obvious reasons). Also, for example, China and India produce more diesel than Russia. Russia was the one choice where buying the diesel violates our sanctions and undermines our national interests/Ukraine security.

The United States is now officially allied with Vladimir Putin and Russia. We will fund Russia’s genocidal war machine in exchange for Putin helping Trump and the Republican Party in the midterms. One of the most shameful and disgusting days in the history of this Republic.

This is encouraging. At some point, I'm hopeful that the remaining Republicans shackled to Trump will dump him and try to rebuild the party. www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

A majority of 57-43 senators voted to impeach Trump the second time including seven Republicans. Mind you, this was even after McConnell wouldn't allow any testimony or evidence. I'm hopeful that enough Republicans who survive the midterms will see the handwriting on the wall.

If Donald Trump, with his record of corruption and law-breaking, is not impeached, we might as well strike impeachment provisions from the Constitution. He is the reason they exist and must be implemented.

I read something a while back written by someone from Mullin's hometown. He said everyone there knows he's as dumb as a rock and has anger management issues and a short temper, but his family is rich, a story very common to these MAGA knuckle draggers.

Similarly, this morning on MS NOW, the commentary was "I know Mike Rogers and he's not like this" or "wasn't like this" but the reality is, yes, he is like this. His attacks were outrageous and racist. Absolutely disgusting and disqualifying. Pure MAGA vileness.

I sometimes wonder if senators and representatives from each state should have to be native-born of that state, just as the president has to be native-born of the country. Seems like they would actually care more about their people.
