Let me see if I understand this . . . 1. The U.S. is at war with Iran. 2. Russia is helping Iran in that war. 3. The U.S. is now giving Russia money that it can use to help Iran destroy U.S. bases and kill U.S. troops. Donald is smart & patriotic like that.

The first Russian diesel cargo heading for the US left St Petersburg on September 22, two weeks *before* Trump announced the deal with Putin, Windward reports. The Greek-flagged tanker Minerva Zen carrying 275,000 barrels of diesel/gasoil is due at the US East Coast around 11–12 October.

When the government turns punishment into a public spectacle, it's worth asking why. Intimidation? Desensitization? Political theater? Whatever the answer, this is being done with the full support of the president. Pay attention.

We are sanctioning the ICC because we are a country that commits war crimes. We are buying diesel from Russia to fund Putin’s war machine because we are a country that likes *other* countries that commit war crimes.
