@ChrisMayLA6 The growth in renewables alongside the (temporary) spike in oil prices is a silver lining to these very dark clouds. This will pay long-term dividends in health and climate change. And if capitalists do well from it, it's good for my pension fund.

I'm following with some interest the controversy re: food shortages on U.S. aircraft carriers deployed to the Middle East. The Navy has pushed back, releasing pics of full meals being served, but I have questions:How do we know when/where these newly released pictures were taken? How do we know if those pics were for officers, or for the enlisted? Considering the gaslighting about everything else (i.e. telling us gas prices are down) why should anyone believe anything from this administration? What will they do if more pictures get out? Crackdown on the sailors? I hope that there is no retaliation against those who are documenting this, but lemme tell ya, if you lose the support of your military, you are in big big trouble. #US #USPol #Iran #MiddleEast #War #Navy
