No but am I surprised? Also, no. Rosneft still has $79 trillion dollars worth of paydirt -just from one well- in the Kara sea

FYI. Did you know … Rep. John Carter (R‑TX) one of the largest congressional investors in ExxonMobil, holding between $1.1 million and $5.3 million in stock?
….and did you know… Sen. Ted Cruz (R‑TX) and Rep. Joe Kennedy III (D‑MA) Both held between $400,004 and $1,000,000 (Cruz) and $500,002 and $1,000,000 (Kennedy III) in ExxonMobil investments?
Rep. Fred Upton (R‑MI), Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R‑WI), Rep. Pete Visclosky (D‑IN), Rep. David Price (D‑NC), and several others also reported notable investments, ranging from roughly $50,000 to over $1 million in ExxonMobil stock. www.opensecrets.org/orgs/exxon-m...
Sen. Jerry Moran (R‑KS) Stands out with the highest holdings in Big Oil among senators, with $119,006 to $360,000 in combined Exxon and Chevron stocks.
Congress writes our energy laws while sitting on Exxon stock. War games, sanctions, ‘cartel’ excuses all just cover for Big Oil profits. Corruption dressed up as policy. Both dems and GOP @housedemocrats.bsky.social @senatedemocrats.bsky.social
That’s the American way. Piece of shit oligarchs using the peasants sons and daughters to make war on each other in their conquest for more personal riches.
Exactly. Dress it up as “patriotism” while it’s just blood-for-dividends.
Guess which way they’re gonna vote re: U.S. military might to provide contract enforcement to Russia against Venezuela
Right? Amazing how U.S. foreign policy lines up perfectly with someone’s investment portfolio every single fucking time. Burn down democracy. Fuck it.
Like Tuberville said: ending insider trading is just gonna de-incentivize criminals from holding government positions And they don’t want that
And cartels? Please. This is about oil. Rosneft collapses, Russia reshuffles, Exxon cuts backroom deals. And the U.S. wraps it in ‘anti-narcotics’ bullshit.
Also, state sponsored racism. HUGE selling point to MAGAts. Why, delicious state sponsored racism is worth 150%+ cost increases and worshipping a pedophile so to tie it to make-believe fentanyl and brown cartels feels affordable af to those dumbfucks.
And Exxon absorbed a $4 billion-plus loss when it exited Sakhalin, and returning could help it recoup part of that. 🙄
Funny how the last thing he did as trumps Secretary of State was set the table for his company, Exxon, to come back into Russia for seconds by brokering the deal between Venezuela and Rosneft, yeah?
Amazing coincidence how the nation’s top diplomat just happened to be Exxon’s top salesman. 🙄🤪
Oh the guy that Russia gave a friendship medal and set up in his own offshore oil brokering business in the Bahamas? That guy?
Yep him. Medal of Friendship from Putin. Secretary of State for Trump. And still we’re supposed to pretend U.S. foreign policy is about “freedom”.
Read this. That’s who we’ve always been. Liars, thieves, rapists, propagandists spinning fables about shining cities on hills Colonialist cunts.
Remember the war on drugs? 🙄
The drugs the U.S. government deployed against Americans who weren’t keen on sending their children to war on behalf of oligarchs interests? Funny how they used an actual Actor to sell that stupid bullshit. Along with trickle down economics that, 45 years later, still haven’t trickled down
After all Reagan gave us mass incarceration and oligarchs. And AIDS.
AIDS was super funny for them, hitting the communities they hate the most.
America’s delusions of exceptionalism are at the heart of its current challenges.
Like we are North Korea but with 3 ft plastic neon beer bongs
How many other countries pledge allegiance to their flag at the beginning of every school day? Perhaps many do but it always looks like brainwashing to me.
