  1. So what’s going on in El Paso? Yahoo NewsUS halts flights at Texas airport on Mexico border for 's...By Akanksha Khushi and Shubham Kalia Feb 11 (Reuters) - The U.S. has halted all flights to and from El Paso International Airport in Texas for "special security reasons," the U.S.
  2. While his son was in the icu from heart failure…apparently his wife begged hum to come home but he wanted to chill w Epstein…..idk why but attia seemed like a dbag with his longevity bs
  3. So like 20000 have been killed. More than in Gaza but there’s no protesters? I don’t understand?
  4. Is trump trying to get Denmark or nato to buy more f35s?
  5. Chevron, shell, Exxon, p66…..
  6. Been in the industry for 14 years. US Oil in the $50 range is barely profitable. Mid east different story. keep in mind when it slows down lots of other industries are hit. No new wells or pipelines no pipes or valves are ordered so steel production is hit. Welders, pipe fitters get hit, Caterpiller takes a hit etc….lot of downstream players beyond the super majors like chevron and Exxon. revenue % from production also funds many govt programs. also price of oil and fuel prices aren’t always related. That’s called the crack spread. A super major likes when oil is relatively low and fuel is high.
  7. Just to clarify…..yes they have a ton of oil. But…..that oil is dog shit and only a few refineries in the us can process it. It’s worse than Canadian tar sand oil. cheap oil isn’t good for the oil industry. Just last yr chevron canned 7k ppl in Houston. The projections for 2026 aren’t great either.
  8. Shoulder a cop like that and it’s assaulting an officer
  9. A friend in the cargo world and knows a guy that flew that jet a week ago heard the flight was delayed 2 hrs for engine mx.
  10. I recall the system goes to communism when all institutions are replaced by the full coop of the people and the system runs itself and there is no need for a govt etc…but full on communism never materialized because shocker nobody wanted to relinquish power money and control.
  11. Democrats don’t think car jacking matter to Americans https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opinion/social-media-erupts-after-dnc-speaker-says-migrant-crime-carjackings-don-t-matter-to-many-americans/ar-AA1LccmQ?cvid=31c93be822ad4639a62ec05ea3b5c238&ocid=hpmsn
  12. If they block Sunni oil nations….i see a coalition forming against the regime. 25% of the global supply flows through the straight
  13. Gabbard now saying Iran is weeks away from nukes it is Fox News but an interesting take on the regional policy https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/trumps-unpredictable-middle-east-moves-actually-follow-brilliant-master-plan
  14. They could sink some tankers and do quite a bit of damage. 25% of global crude passes through.
  15. USN needs to control the straight ASAP if they haven’t already. if the IAF is unopposed this early I see a scorched earth policy unfolding
  16. So I read Gabbard testified that Iran was not starting their Nuke program. Trump is telling Iran to surrender unconditionally. wild times
  17. Read the stories in the article. Really ed up the amount of lying involved. Dudes were charged with more for having kids in the car. One guy saved a motorcyclists leg after a crash he witnessed. Said cop thinks he smells like beer and arrests him on the scene. Still gotta lawyer up and go through due process.
  18. Yeah pretty f’d up i read a court appearance counts as overtime and some are “gaming” the system and can clear $300k as a cop
  19. https://www.coloradoan.com/story/news/2023/05/05/ex-fort-collins-police-officer-faces-lawsuit-alleging-false-dui-arrests/70188781007/ this dude made 17 false dui arrest over 2 years.
  20. How bout Jill allowing this to go on?
  21. Really sad story. I lived in CO for a while and there were always stories like this. I remember there was a morning in Golden when a multiple dui offender was blitzed and killed a mother. im amazed by the number of ppl that I’ve met that have had duis. The process is a big cash grab.
  22. What would it take to push Russia out of UK completely? How many lives? How much $$$? does UK have the personnel to do this? Does the EU have the will to spend and support? The war is basically a stalemate with Russia slowly grinding forward. The effort to push Russia out is too great. i think making a deal for peace and resources is in the best interest ok the Ukraine ppl. the current involvement will drag this on for another 3 yrs. We’ll spend billions, uk will lose another couple hundred thousand men and Russia will gain 15% more land. also we only really know what we’ve been told. Lots of questions to be answered.
  23. The US has completely mismanaged the forest. That is very obvious. the Marshall fires in co were from dry grasslands. But there was a 3 yr period where everything in co was on fire. After the Marshall fires my wife wanted to leave the state. It was the final nail after all the bs in that state. Many suspect It was eco terrorism to push the global warming agenda but you’re right…..we are allowing ppl to live in high danger areas then expecting insurance to cover it. i agree with an above post that insurance will dictate building codes to help mitigate loss. I just read about the architecture of a home that survived in palisades. The material and design all made the home survive. But what do u do when nobody wants to live in states like Ohio.
  24. I lived next to superior CO in 2021 when the Marshall fires raged through that area. It’s near boulder. we had sustained winds over 60 with gusts over 100 mph. The front range was drier than Death Valley that year. this fire was only a day but torched over 1k homes. Not saying there shouldn’t be criticism but fires like this you really can’t stop. It’s really hard to explain just how fast they move. Imo they could have had 10x the fire trucks but it wouldn’t have done much good. Everything still would have burned.
  25. Apparently the pos that Murdered the uga student was here illegally from Venezuela. His brother was arrested with a fake green card. saw a FB post from my old hood I’m CO. Mom was asking for donations for a Venezuelan family she was taking in with her own family….I see where her heart is but wow.
