I think the EXCESS profit should be taxed at 100% and be given to a UN climate change group to distribute to countries (LOW carbon producing countries) being damaged by climate change. Unfortunately there is NO world mechanism to deal with companies doing international damage

#Action is needed. We are being ripped off & the future of climate looks bleak! Eight of the biggest oil companies amassed profits of more than $90bn (£67bn) in just three months as the Iran conflict sent energy prices soaring and the emissions-fuelled climate crisis caused deadly heatwaves.

He’s been running for stuff since the early 90s and is just an empty suit, boiler plate Temupublican for any era. Was 100% behind George W Bush. Is 100% behind Trump. Loved the war in Iraq. Loves the war in Iran. A cynical opportunist who should just accept his inner Floridian.

Rogers is also for you paying higher gas prices so Trump can lose a war over nothing in Iran.

Mike Rogers is for Medicaid cuts that will close our hospitals, for total abortion bans and for ICE ripping our neighbors out of their homes. But at least he lives in Florida.

This is a war crime. This is attempted murder. This guy isn’t an enemy combatant. This is some Russian POS controlling a drone to try and murder someone, anyone. Russia is a terrorist state lead by a homicidal terrorist.

Well at least Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) has shown his colors! Support of TRUMP before Justice. NO SUPPORT for Epstein victims. Instead supports an ATTORNEY GENERAL instructing the EPSTEIN pedophiles to declare themselves as VICTIMS so the DOJ will redact their names in the Epstein files. Disgusted!

Raw Story@rawstory.com · yesterday

Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) sparked outrage Tuesday after being captured on video agreeing to meet with survivors of Jeffrey Epstein – only to snub them moments later. "They sat in his office for 45 minutes before his staff told them he wasn’t coming."

Cornyn turned 24 yrs as a US Senator into GARBAGE and wil be remembered not for the 24 yrs, but remembered as the Senator who had the chance to STAND STRONG, but folded like a cheap suit. Cornyn will ONLY be remembered for HIS betrayal of the constitution and U.S. democracy

George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸@gtconway.bsky.social · yesterday

Incredible nonsense from John Cornyn. True, the harm to Epstein’s victims can’t be remedied by a “no” vote. But why should Blanche’s corrupt cover-up of the Epstein files—in violation of a Congressional mandate(!)—be rewarded by “yes”? Can’t get any more craven than this.

Families already have enough on their plate dealing with Trump’s price hikes, his health care cuts, and his war in Iran. Instead of relief, this Administration is stooping to use the programs designed to uplift families and keep them together.

Twenty-five states, including Rhode Island, sued the Trump administration Monday over its latest tariffs, calling them a pretext for replacing import taxes the Supreme Court struck down in February.

And behind the scenes TRUMP is on the phone to his friends (Saudis, Exxon, Chevron) saying SEE how well my IRAN war has worked for you! I got Iran to close the strait and made you BILLIONS! But to the PUBLIC (who are paying the bill) TRUMP says (www.cnbc.com/2026/08/03/t...

Right to repair is a HUGE ISSUE. Without it Farmers have to PAY HUGE $ to keep their machinery running. Forced to use 1 companies products and they can CHARGE OUTRAGOUS costs to repair. They can't repair it on their own or buy parts from others as no right to repair creates a SINGLE SOURCE mkt

Manufacturers use software locks that prevent farmers or independent mechanics from making certain repairs. Farmers argue: I paid $500k for this tractor. I should be able to repair it.

Trump accuses oil companies of ‘making too much money’ from his war on Iran www.theguardian.com/business/202... So RICH, coming from Trump! If there are profits, he's likely jealous cuz he's not getting a kickback. But his war is the cause of both the misery & any profits for all world citizens.
