Trump does not understand simple #business #economics. He wants to reduce the price of #oil to $50 a barrel. Well, OK.
To achieve that, he wants oil companies to invest untold billions in

‘The Dirtiest, Worst Oil’ Is in Venezuela - Inside Climate News
The country’s “extra heavy” oil packs some of the highest associated greenhouse gas emissions of any crude oil.

Ukraine strikes empty shadow-fleet oil tanker *in the Mediterranean* with an aerial drone.
Would love to know the flight path of that drone!

Trump: I talked to the oil CEOs & it'll only take 18 months to rebuild Venezuela's oil industry.
Big Oil CEOs: He's lying & never talked to us. It'll take 10 to 20 years & we'll lose money by going into Venezuela.

I also have been thinking about this connection, it is so damn obvious, but no one in the media is talking about it.
The rise of authoritarianism, and the deep connection to the oil industry.
It has been obvious to anyone willing to stop for a moment and think... but #TheAmericanFascist, in his infinite wisdom and/or senility, has thrown down the veil.
#Venezuela is about access to #Oil in South America.
#Greenland is about access to Oil and Minerals in the #Arctic.
#Alberta Separatism is about access to Oil and Gas in #Canada.
Deposing the Iranian Regime is access to Oil and Gas in the Middle East. (Get #Iran, and you might get #Iraq too)
And lets not forget #Russia... fighting the #RussiaUkraineWar funded by their oil reserves and all about returning to an old empire in oil-rich Central Asia and Eastern Europe.
So is the fight to end fossil fuel use in order to preserve a liveable, recognizable planet, also a fight against authoritarianism and fascism?
You're damn right it is.

"The US Is after our oil & gas" - Venezuelan President Maduro, September 10, 2025

If you are wondering why the #USA is attacking #Venezuela: it's the country with presumably the world's largest untapped #oil reserves. They do have more than

crazy theory/hot take: the late 20th century and early 21st century has had a growing anti-knowledge bent because there is an underlying societal diminishing of cognitive abilitiy due to widespread lead poisoning from leaded fuel and other products.

Currently side-by-side on the CBC.ca news website listings are these two articles titled:
"More Oil Production in Venezuela could hurt Canada's oilpatch”

Carney is a carbon industry plant.
nothing says environmental “blank cheque” to industry like: “voluntary certification program”.
"But operators have another compliance option, which some may find controversial because it could give industry players some more leeway. Operators can design their own approaches, providing a facility meets "methane intensity thresholds" that are on par with standards from "leading international voluntary certification programs.””
That's what private forest companies (Mosaic) on Vancouver Island use to claim they are following ‘best practices' as they clear cut whole sides of mountains and leave a 10m ‘riparian zone' around streams while falling trees right over them.
It's a license to make up their own rules and do whatever they want, wider impacts be damned.

So there are lots of Conservative Albertans that are Big Mad about the Coastal First Nations acting as though they have "a veto”.
(That's not what FPIC means by the way: #ABPoli #CanPoli #CdnPoli #Pipeline #Separatism #Canada #Oil #EndFossilFuels

Carney has completely lost First Nations. (Smith never had them of course)
"…they had no choice but to come to Ottawa to make their appeal, and potentially take legal action. “And one thing with First Nations and the courts? We have a very good track record of winning,” Mike Mercredi said.”
I increasingly think the Carney government will fall before July 1st. Making the MOU potentially moot.

really good video from @… Energi Media that picks apart how the "Free Alberta Strategy", which is Danielle Smith's playbook, is trying to break up Canada based on the false notion that Ottawa is not being "fair" to Alberta... when it was the Alberta oilsands companies themselves that lobbied for the Industrial Carbon Tax.

“But when I look at the Port of Prince Rupert, a lot of those issues don’t exist there because it is right on the ocean.”
Flatlanders...
Dear Premier Smith. Consult a map.
Prince Rupert is not “on the Ocean” any more than Calgary is “in the Rocky Mountains”.
It is around the same distance from Calgary to Banff as it is from Prince Rupert to the northwest tip of Haida Gwaii and you don’t want to do either in a storm.

P.S. and if you want to get technical, consult an official chart. No “pacific oceans” noted on that chart.

The new pro-Pipeline Minister is working out very well, I see. Tres bien, bien sûre.
