The chi-coms are trying to steal the election for democrats, and the democrats are fine with it because they know they can't win, and because they hate amurica, and because secretly they're all communists. This is why we had to fire all the communists at the state department, blah blah blah.

It's 3 months of this dumb shit while they try and kick citizens off voter rolls in swing states and not tell them till election day.

China is the biggest importer of crude but it cut back its imports 40% back in June which kept the price of crude and gasoline lower for the 4th of July.

China dipped into 40 million barrels of its strategic oil reserves during that period. China was prepared for the war it has at least 1.3 billion gallons of oil in storage. There is talk going around that China may not want to use any more reserve oil and may start importing more.

Krasnov doesn't want to piss Xi off, he will lose Bigly.

Be considered some form of an act of war?

And if he is lying, shouldn't he be taken into custody for endangering the citizens of the U.S. and China by warming up the war drums on a conspiracy?

I think he has really really really overstepped his powers....I mean it's just another violation of his oath. But then again he is a rapist and child abuser, most likely a witness to murder in Epstain's watch and well, he's still shitting on all of us.

When they meet. Sort of like he talked shit about NATO to the press, then basically was a nodding yes man behind closed doors. He is all shit in his pants when the moment to put his words into action.
