Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | The Morning Rant: Minimalist EditionIn total, the U.S. will release 50 million barrels from the SPR. Of the total 32 million barrels will be an exchange over the next several months, while 18 million barrels will be an acceleration of a previously authorized sale. “The President stands ready to take additional action, if needed, and is prepared to use his full authorities working in coordination with the rest of the world to maintain adequate supply as we exit the pandemic,” the White House said in a statement. Tuesday’s announcement follows the administration saying for months that it was looking into the tools at its disposable as West Texas Intermediate crude futures surged to a seven-year high above $85. This is straight out of Saul Alinsky's playbook!
The logical disconnect is obvious, yet our media are marching in lockstep with the Democrat party in support of restrictions that do absolutely nothing other than increase the price of energy in America. We're still burning it...it just costs more. Fuel has an inelastic demand curve...it has to get extremely expensive before people start decreasing their usage. But they reduce their demand for other goods, and that damages growth. Which is the point. It's also amazingly stupid, and maybe the American public, which has been asleep for generations, will finally notice that there is an easy and cheap way out of the huge economic issue of high fuel prices, and it isn't dipping into emergency supplies of oil! Open the Keystone pipeline, sell oil leases, remove restrictions on fracking, and we will once again be net exporters of oil. It won't take long. And it won't happen until Senile Joe Biden is voted out of office and the rest of the Democrat junta is curb-stomped.

Unfortunately, the American public knows nothing and wants to learn less about the laws of supply and demand. The BernieBro in my writing group still maintains that the increase in gas prices is due, somehow (he never can specify), to Trump.

Posted by: BeckoningChasm My personal conspiracy theory is that the Dems became the champions of the finance and investments business. As the US switched from manufacturing as a base to service industries, there was a vast profit to be made from financialization of debt and tapping currency inflows and outflows. But, as everyone gets in the game, the profits go to normal levels. So, individuals want to make money quick--be able to control events behind the scenes so as to make a quick buck because you know when to hold em and know when to fold em. It is no coincidence that a lot of the Dems biggest fundraisers essentially make their money via hedge funds and from that options and derivatives which rely on privatized information. Societal chaos is necessary to make the most money from that information. Posted by: whig at November 23, 2021 11:16 AM (9hXN1) 73

No, sorry but no.
Fracking wells and smaller wells SHUT DOWN during COVID. That's not a faucet you turn back on cheaply; and they're not worth the cost. Several manufacturers of well parts SHUT DOWN. So you can't get parts to drill wells in the next few years. They're backlogged. We'd be screwed under Trump with the best plans. We are much more screwed now under Biden? That's true. But nothing would make this not be terrible. This was known to drillers and oil speculators last year.

The transfer of this cobalt mine in the Congo from U.S. to Chinese suzerainty via the son of the sitting President of the United States is a pretty good indicator that the Global Warming Scam is in fact a scam designed to transfer wealth to China and further impoverish the U.S. via electric vehicles. Removing the energy from a system is a virtual death sentence; the greed and egoism of Washington in that regard is rather startling. This cobalt mine is a giant hole in the ground that requires vast amounts of energy to mine, transport to processing facilities, process, and then process and transport again into finished goods. Coal mines are probably more efficient and no more damaging to the environment.

OT: Oral B Charcoal floss
-took the plunge on this one because I was curious, although the charcoal part is silly. -it is a pretty thick floss. Pro. -Has a heavy waxen feel, but does not leave a feeling of residue on your teeth. -The color (black) is kind of nice to show the crap you are pulling from between your teeth. On the other hand, I kind of figured that already and did not need visual proof. -it's not bad floss, but: $5 (and change) for 54 yrds. Regular waxed (hard to find unwaxed anymore) $0.97 for 100 yrds. Definitely not worth it in my opinion. Posted by: Aetius451AD at November 23, 2021 11:35 AM (csEWM) 193

I've been thinking about the DA in Wisconsin.
Look at the societal havoc they have caused. First, they release Jacob Blake, who goes on to get himself shot by cops, followed by the Kenosha riots, which ensnared Kyle, whom they never should have tried. But, wait, it gets better. They lose the Kyle prosecution in historically unprofessional fashion. THEN They release Darrell Brooks on a small bail. 2 days later we get the Waukesha massacre. Those DAs should be run out of town on a rail before before they cause more chaos.

One of the Portland news channels has been doing a series on the homeless. It's pretty interesting. If there is an encampment that is by the freeway, the city and ODOT point fingers at each other about who is responsible for cleanup. And when they do a clean up, they can't touch "personal property". So all this junk gets left behind. There's a black activist that goes out and does cleanup on his own, afterwards.
One of the property owners said he didn't mind sharing but didn't want this, meaning the drugs and garbage. It seems that the type of person that lives in a tent on the street doesn't have the desire for tidyness. There's no way they will ever get this cleared out. And when they move them out, they get protesters in their neighborhood, trying to intimidate them for their actions. Posted by: Notsothoreau - look forward at November 23, 2021 11:52 AM (5HBd1) 287

The "trick" to ballot box stuffing is that you set aside real votes in your Dem stronghold, and replace them with fake votes.
That way if you don't need more votes to win, you just post slightly more Dem leading totals then were really cast and no one is the wiser. But if you do need more votes you can now take at those votes you hid away that can't be shown to be fake...because they aren't.

A little bit of news: the Congo is going to revoke the transfer of the minority interest in the cobalt mine to the Chinese group as a fraudulent transfer because, believe it or not, they have their own version of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act that this sale violated. The FCPA covers every country in the world EXCEPT the United States; in the USA it's perfectly legal to pay off family members of government officials (Congress wrote the law, after all), while paying off family members of overseas government officials is illegal. So Hunter Biden screwed the Chinese out of this deal. I'm sure it will be litigated for years, but Congo has bad enough PR that they don't need something new.
On this subject, if a US bank were to pay the Russian foreign minister's wife $600,000 to give a speech, they would be prosecuted, but it's perfectly OK for a Russian bank to pay the Secretary of State's husband to "give a speech."

>>Georgia also has a state constitutional provision that juries in Georgia can make conclusions as to facts AND the law. So in effect, the trial judge's instructions are advisory and not conclusive.
Huh...seems odd that the Jury could consider the Probable cause angle for Citizens Arrest when the Law explicitly states that one needs to see a/the crime to effect a/the CA.

Avg gas price then hovered between $2.15 and $2.50 during 2016. From Jan 2017 to Oct 2018, prices consistently rose to a peak of $2.80. Between Oct 2018 and Mar 2020, prices were between $2.40 and $2.90.
Posted by: Clyde Shelton at November 23, 2021 11:40 AM (Do5/p) The only thing Obama didn't do was mess with fracking on federal land, which helped lead to lowering gas prices. But he had zilch to do with what was happening in the private sector - at least he didn't mess with it or the leases. He just bitched about it. Gas was also (at least in CA) approaching $5.00/gal in 2008 - no thanks to W. But Trump did approve Keystone, which at least psychologically helped lower prices further. In 2011, Obama approved largest ever release from the SPR: https://tinyurl.com/yw28vv5y Looking at other price "sources" I see a steady from 2010 to 2015, and then some easing. https://tinyurl.com/mp7rk8w Living in CA I'm in my own little bubble, but a little over a year ago, I was paying close to $3.2/gal for 92, and now it's almost $6/gal.

Yes. The Obama Administration started this in 2009.

323 Garrett,
From my understanding, totality of circumstances reaching probable cause is what the defense was arguing based on multiple recorded trips to the house via surveillance, no record of any 'jogging' behavior by the deceased produced by prosecution, property theft from the house under construction of thousands of dollars subsequent to those nocturnal visits, the father of the shooter had prior knowledge of the deceased's record as he was investigator for the DA office, the deceased was known by sight due to one of the defendants actually spotlighting him at the building sight prior to the fatal incident, and so on. The guy filming the incident with a camera phone was apparently unrelated to the stop according to the defense for him and was not involved in any interaction with the deceased and my guess is the most likely to be acquitted due to distance from the actual stop and subsequent shooting and defense contends that the cell phone guy lacked of knowledge about the actions of the other two defendants.

There are multiple stats on gas prices.
In 2009 ave cost of regular gas was 2.35 - having fallen almost a dollar due to the recession. It then climbed to 3.62, all due to Obama era regulation. He was actively trying to force it. It was 3.51 in 2013. And then fracking happened. By 2016 it was down to 2.14 a gallon. Obama would not allow new areas but yes, the Dakotas and West Texas pumped like crazy. Critics worried about a deflationary spiral - which was stupid. Cheap energy is always a economic positive unless you are a single commodity oil economy. We aren't. It shot up to 2.72 in 2018 - even with all the pumping, GDP was growing more rapidly. But in 2019, even with still a strong economy, it fell slightly to 2.60. All thewhile the Strategic reserve was being filled up. Obama's energy policy was stupid. Trump's was smart. Biden's is Biden's. Posted by: Black JEM at November 23, 2021 12:30 PM (V6xwG) 437
