Just by the summary by-lines....

China is an odd situation in that she buys a lot of oil from her unlikely ally, but Iran has effectively closed the Straits of Hormuz used by the tankers. Otherwise, to China, the war may be mainly of little more than propaganda advantage. I expect the Beijing government to be watching the situation very closely though.

The increased terrorism risk is only to be expected, but we don't and shouldn't know if the blocking of publishing the security report is to minimise compromising the USA's security. If that is the case, then it should be kept secret.

The President might be unconcerned about rising fuel prices even though it affects far more than mere filling-station prices - but his fellow-Americans may be very concerned.

@swirlie And of course oil is a world market, so Texas e.g. had been selling crude at $70/barrel, but now they can sell it overseas for $120/barrel.

So suddenly the price of Texas crude has been bid up to $100-$110/barrel. And suddenly gasoline prices are spiking. It's not just high prices in Asia, it's high energy prices worldwide.

@ElwoodBlues
Funny how Texas crude isn't even used in the USA to help keep the prices down. Everyone is on the take!

@swirlie There’s also the national reserve that could be released, although if Demented Donnie even realizes that it exists, he might be keeping it to supply his illegal war if necessary.

Okay, so I gave this one a fair shot, I listened very closely for the first 5 minutes and 30 seconds and he never stopped talking about raising his kids the whole time.

I don't know where this guy is going with all this, but I bailed on his video after 5 minutes and 45 seconds of family blither which was going nowhere.

What else you got for us?

@swirlie I'm afraid that this is the trouble with a lot of this kind of video: full of verbiage with no substance. I get them on my YT feed and have given up with the 'shock', 'devastating for Trump' and 'disastrous day' click bait cards. Sometimes there something buried away, but life is too short and everything carries on regardless.

@swirlie …it’s well worth listening to in my opinion. But I skipped over the family tree stuff (although I am righteously proud of my children, too so I get where Glenn is coming from). I should have put time stamps on the points I highlighted, but I had too much going on at the time.

@FreddieUK Yes, there’s a lot to be said for the crib note version…
