    I thought we were talking about items that needed more coverage because the media likes the war too much.

    Ah. Well, I'm not sure there is much more to say about that until we find out what the documents were.

    Basically talking about the stock market and oil prices. Sucks but I don't see any way around it. Even if we just backed off and let Putin roam free there would still be destabilizing costs.

    Let's keep shutting down our own oil production. Makes sense!

    We should start pumping oil again, imo.

    Right, we can do better in keeping prices down by exporting more. JMO

    Limiting new oil production on federal lands is all Biden ever did. Existing federal lands and private lands have been full speed for a long time. Texas is basically 100% private lands. If you think we actually shut down oil production then you watch too much fox news.

    Yes. And get the rest of the world off of fossil fuels. Russia loses almost all leverage.

    You have a plan for that? As an example, Germany imports roughly 1/3 of its oil from Russia.

    Don't watch Fox news at all. Hardly watch CNN or MSNBC either.
