U.S. gasoline prices climbed about 50% since Iran war began, PBS reports
PBS analysis finds U.S. gasoline prices climbed about 50% since the Iran war began, driven largely by higher global crude oil prices. The pump-price surge contributed to a key inflation gauge reaching its highest level in three years in April and has eroded household real incomes and spending power. That matters because rising fuel costs are inflationary, squeeze budgets, and complicate Federal Reserve policy as it balances fighting inflation with supporting economic growth.
People need someone to fight on behalf of their pocketbooks. Was glad to join Roop Raj from FOX 2 Detroit to talk about the war in Iran, gas prices and working together to lower costs.
Spare me your faux outrage. Maybe you should’ve thought about the consequences of voting yes on so many of his despicable nominees. I‘m so sick of our “leaders” and “representatives“ yapping and yapping and yapping! FRIGGIN’ DO SOMETHING!!!! Enabler
@slotkin.senate.gov voted YES to confirm Kristi Noem and YES on the Laken Riley Act. She also skipped an important vote on banning arms sales to Israel in order to appear on Colbert. Slotkin insists she'd have voted to block offensive weapons to Israel... www.themidwesterner.news/2025/08/elis...
Deleted the last post very quickly. Didn't like the comments you were getting?
First, you cut a federal program that you don't care about – like food for hungry people, say. Then, you use that money to reward a friend who helped you get elected by giving them a contract with a hugely inflated profit margin. It's easy when you're the Dictator.
Since you deleted your last post, after being ripped into. I'll say it again bsky.app/profile/thef...
