- CNN’s Kaitlan Collins and Maggie Haberman Roast Trump For Cheering Higher Oil ...
CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins and New York Times White House correspondent Maggie Haberman roasted President Donald Trump’s post cheering on the bright side of spiking oil prices amid the war in Iran. Among the myriad problems the U.S. faces almost two weeks into the Iran war are the attacks on oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz that have exacerbated surging prices and roiled the stock market. But Trump saw a silver lining Thursday when he wrote “The United States is the largest Oil Producer in the World, by far, so when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money” in a social media post. On Thursday night’s edition of CNN’s The Source with Kaitlan Collins, Collins read Trump’s statement aloud and cracked, “Maybe wealthy oil investors will.” Minutes later, she asked Haberman about the post, telling her “I got a lot of texts today” from alarmed acquaintances. Haberman agreed this is a vulnerability for Trump — especially with a trove of video receipts of Trump bashing high gas prices: COLLINS: But just on the gas prices. It was just a month ago, in his State of the Union, where he was talking about they were 200 or — $2.30 a gallon. That number has jumped now. And I got a lot of texts today from people — I don’t know if you — I’m sure you did as well — about his post suggesting that higher oil prices are a good thing. HABERMAN: Yes. COLLINS: I mean, I think a lot of his own political advisers who typically talk about how savvy he is, would say, “That’s a tough message to sell.” HABERMAN: This is not something that most of the people in his orbit right now are having an easy time messaging or solving, and you can see that every day. But also, you and I both know it from our own reporting. And it’s very — look, they are trying to push the White House a message in various news outlets that members of — aspects of the MAGA base, aspects of the Republican base, the President’s base, are not as upset about an incursion against Iran as people who are opposed to this might say. There is some validity to that. If you talk to voters at individual events or in states, it is true that there are a lot of Republicans who have long-believed that Iran… [TheTopNews] Read More.5 hours ago - Estimated $3.3B in NCAA tourney bets, AGA says

AP Photo/Jae C. Hong, File Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE), a retired Air Force general, hammered President Donald Trump’s administration on Friday over its recent decision to lift oil sanctions on Russia to try to avert further price shocks during his Iran operation. On Tuesday night, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced the move, writing on social media that Trump “is taking decisive steps to promote stability in global energy markets and working to keep prices low as we address the threat and instability posed by the terrorist Iranian regime.” “To increase the global reach of existing supply, @USTreasury is providing a temporary authorization to permit countries to purchase Russian oil currently stranded at sea. This narrowly tailored, short-term measure applies only to oil already in transit and will not provide significant financial benefit to the Russian government, which derives the majority of its energy revenue from taxes assessed at the point of extraction,” Bessent concluded, working to suggest Russia won’t benefit too much from the move. The Trump administration had already lifted other sanctions against Russia during the war, including giving India a waiver to buy Russian oil – something the U.S. had worked hard to stop. Bacon, who is retiring from Congress, shared Bessent’s tweet and added, “The White House is weak on Russia. There is a moral blindness when it comes to Russia. Over two-thirds of Americans find it repulsive.” The White House is weak on Russia. There is a moral blindness when it comes to Russia.

This sustains Russia’s invasion,” Bacon later added while sharing the Washington Post report on the latest Russian oil relief. Bacon has long been a critic of Trump’s friendly relationship with Russian leader Vladimir Putin, but has been a vocal supporter of Trump’s push for regime change in Iran.

But the job is not done unless we see regime change. If we stop short of that, the new leadership will be just as anti-American and anti-Israel. pic.twitter.com/XP8z4WfmEv… [TheTopNews] Read More.5 hours ago - Michigan synagogue attack was ‘hate, plain and simple’, says governo...

LEFT: Pat Buchanan (Fred Jewell/AP Photo) RIGHT: Ro Khanna (Tom Williams/CQ Roll Call via AP Images) Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) responded to a critical column in The Washington Post by throwing his weight behind a trio of controversial — and arguably anti-Semitic — political personalities on Thursday. The column, written by conservative commentator James Kirchick, takes Khanna to task for flip-flopping on issues ranging from Israel to the 2016 Democratic presidential primary, as well as excoriates him for his handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case. “Khanna has apparently decided that exploiting the Epstein scandal, facts and propriety be damned, is the way to remedy that obscurity,” argued Kirchick before characterizing the congressman as “a man whose lust for power is unseemly even by Washington standards.” In a tweetstorm on Thursday, Khanna objected strenuously — if not substantively — to the charges against him. ”@jkirchick does a hit piece on me for standing up to the Epstein Class. His real beef with me has been that I have called what happened in Gaza a genocide. I welcome the hatred of Netanyahu apologists,” he wrote in his opening parry on X. @jkirchick does a hit piece on me for standing up to the Epstein Class.

During a heated exchange with Commentary‘s John Podhoretz, Khanna leveled a series of accusations against the Jewish-American journalist. “You cheerled us into the war in Iraq. You called Pat Buchanan antisemitic for criticizing Israel’s bombing of Lebanon in 2006. You are one of the loudest supporters for Netanyahu’s war in Gaza. Your neocon ideology has done so much damage to America and people are on to it,” he submitted. Buchanan is a former presidential candidate and longtime Republican politico who has been widely criticized for his rhetoric, which both National Review founder William F. Buckley Jr. and Tucker Carlson concluded crossed the line into anti-Semitism. You cheerled us into the war in Iraq.
